kataria-vikesh-417-598403 I haven't read the book or seen older movie. This review is about the Jay Gatsby only. Leo is amazing actor and his acting is marvelous. It gives us a true idea about relationships and love. Amazing movie. 10/10.

Dominic LeRose How the world's great actor Leonardo DiCaprio chose to do such a bad film is hard to understand, but to his credit, I bet he had no idea that the classic story of "The Great Gatsby" would turn out so horribly. To be fair, DiCaprio is not bad in the film. It's director Baz Luhrman who ruins this story, generating an ugly, flashy, loud, obnoxious and stale style that demolishes the entire film. Carrey , one of the most annoying actors around, is at her peak in trying to make audiences dislike yet another one of her characters. She has no chemistry with DiCaprio and is unfit for this film. Absolutely nothing works with this Gatsby remake, and it's best to forget this film ever happened.

smithrachael-59202 As a junior in high school, The Great Gatsby was a required book that we read and analyze. At first getting into the story and understanding the world of Nick and Gatsby was a struggle, but for it to be brought to life many years later certainly helped me gain insight into what it would've been like. I was astonished with the amount of direct quotes that came from the book. Also, there were a few scenes where the directors literally made it match a scene from the novel and it was wonderful. Definitely recommend reading the book if you already haven't and watching the movie as well!

koolcam11 This is one of the best films I've ever seen in my hole life and this film best describes what happens in the book. My classmates really enjoyed reading it and they loved the film too.
