This is without question, my #1 favorite movie. The last time I said that was when I was 6 or 7 and seeing Jaws in the theaters for the first time about 40 years ago.
I try and go into movies with little more than seeing the previews and knowing who might direct it... and occasionally knowing who plays the rolls. But The Revenant rapidly became more interesting the more I learned about it.
The opening scene was absolute dreamlike and quickly leading to an action film.. and then an intense wait-game. The ending may not be what the crowds wanted to see but, in my opinion, a perfect ending
