Boring

Rating: 5/10 (27 January 2016)

I have to say that this movie was completely unoriginal and boring. There was nothing new with this film, and it had an incredibly shallow storyline. Don't get me wrong, the cinematography was gorgeous. That being said, if I wanted to see beautiful cinematography with no storyline I would watch Planet Earth, but in watching that I would also learn something about the world. There is nothing to learn from this film, and at the end of it you realize you never developed any emotional connection to a single character.
I have the utmost respect for Leonardo DiCaprio, and I truly believe that he is one of the best actors of our time. As always, his performance lives up to expectations. That being said, good acting doesn't make a movie good, let alone great, and this movie wasn't even good.
If you want to watch a revenge film with virtually no storyline, but with good acting and beautiful cinematography, then this is the film for you. If you want to watch a film that is so original and exciting that it draws you into another world then look elsewhere. I honestly wanted to like this film, but it was so cliché that...well just see for yourself. Go ahead and watch it, but don't have high expectations because you'll be disappointed.
