Doesn't live up to its hype

Rating: 6/10 (10 January 2016)

Despite the fact, that the ambiance and the amazing landscapes are once more breathtaking, I couldn't get the same feeling of warmth, as DiCaprio showed. Whether it was the stony and innutritive background of humping and drinking bearded men which don't bear any humanity for the sake of money, or the ever for blood pacing Indians. For me, there has been too much space in between these plot lines, "The Revenant" didn't came close to share any ideas or personality from any of its actors, perhaps just DiCaprio. Don't expect something like "Dances with Wolves" where this has been done brilliantly. It's a mere survival story, with bland interruptions of monotonous doing but reasonable actors, and breath taking nature shots. Well, for those who argue this could be the next Oscar, indeed, it is the next step in career for DiCaprio, who managed to perform through this whole movie without his money making lady-killer smile. OK, lets get a hot cup of chocolate with magic marshmallows, and review the scenery once more. maybe I will find some chunk of gold I did miss before. 6/10
