Leonardo DiCaprio really did deserve all the awards that he got for this role

Rating: 9/10 (9 July 2017)

The Revenant is a gorgeous film about a few mens' experiences in northern mid- America in the early 1800s westward expansion era. It was expertly directed. The use of natural light really adds to the danger of the environment that surrounds Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio). Innaritu loves the camera to pan around objects and people to create a sense of awe and spectacle.
I thought it was his best film by far. The realism and intensity of his performance really comes through. The story was gripping throughout the whole film and I found the twists and turns very interesting. ---Yidioo
