It Was Good

Rating: 5/10 (2 October 2019)

The Revenant was a pretty good film. It might take you a few times to watch it all the way through, but it would be worth it. The cold atmosphere, mixed in with the workers doing all they could to survive it. It's a film of survival, and all the things that you must fight to get to where you need to go.
Leo plays a member of a group that is hunting bears to get their fur. They are attacked by Indians, and must flee. Only a few members are left, and they travel the cold winter climate to make it back home. Leo's character is wounded severely by a bear, and is eventually left behind by the group with a few others to take care of him. Those members eventually kill his son, and leave him for dead, though he pretty much is already dead anyways. The story then becomes a tale of Leo's character rebuilding himself, finding his way home, and hunting down the man who left him for dead.
It's a really cold film. It's dark, and just freezing cold. But it's a Hollywood flick with a big actor. It cannot go those extreme places. It must adhere to all audiences, especially Leo DiCaprio audiences. But it's a good film, though I don't see why it got all the attention is got. Tom Hardy is also a treat to watch.
