The Revenant

It was one of the very worst movies I have seen in 50yrs of movie going,no story,I felt like it was a national geo,

The story is so far from the truth because the director takes too many liberties to make DiCaprio believable in a role he never should have been cast in. The only reason the movie and DiCaprio are being hyped for the Oscar is because the old racist members of the Academy hate when a non white actor or actress wins their stupid award.

I thought the movie was exceptional, quite thrilling. Leonardo did a fantastic job braving the elements and the ones out to kill him. How did they shoot that bear scene--amazing!! It was very realistic. And the beauty of the scenery was breathtaking, even though so brutal. At times you could hear a pin drop in the audience. This film deserves to win many Oscars. Highly recommend it.

Excellent movie. Great acting (acting is NOT all about dialogue alone, people!), great cinematography, and great tension-building sequences. Quite violent (and not in a Batman or Iron Man kind of way either), so if you have a weak heart or weak stomach, probably not the movie for you. To the person who said they don't use the F-word in those days, my question is, how do you know? Were you there during those days? Do you have Stewie Griffin time machine?

What an awful movie! Lots of violence, blood and gore. My husband didn't like it either. Definitely a movie for men who like violent movies. I found it very disturbing. Ladies save your money and keep looking for another movie to go to.

With so many likes and dislikes, I can wait to see this later. That said, I am guessing many of the good/great reviews might not be for the acting, but rather than amazing scenery - as it was filmed in both Alberta and BC

Unrealistic and over acted. Line delivery is amateurish. The fact it's been nominated for so many Hollywood awards shows the depth of collusion in the movie business. Yes, it is a business. The art matters little compared to the money.

Long and tedious. Basically a Cowboys and Indians scenario in slow motion. Unrealistic....the "f**k" word was not used in the 1850's. Anyone in that cold water would have terminal hypothermia. I wish movies would get details correct. If I had been watching at home, I would have turned the channel. Not worth the hype.

WOW ! From the opening scene (how do they make an arrow look like it goes through a person?) Then the bear scene. My stomach was in a knot the entire time. A reminder of a "not so long ago" time. Mother nature, raw, unforgiving, yet beautiful. Survival for only men that had balls. My guess ? 1.) Leonardo will finally get his gold statue ! 2. ) Gold for cinematography 3.) Gold for director 4.) Gold for best film 5. ) Tom Hardy deserves gold but will probably go to Sylvester. A movie that stands the test of time.

Leo as gorgeous as he is, looks a little wild in this pic.

Excellent performance by Leonardo!! Some overlooked details by the "special effects" crew - like his neatly trimmed moustache & beard though - it just wouldn't be like this living in the wilderness. The bear attack was awesome! Really enjoyed this movie & I'd seriously recommend you see it.

Waste of time. If I want nice scenery I will buy a National Geographic. No story line and totally unrealistic.

Fantastic movie !!!!!!

Definately one to not miss, but leave the women at home. They won't like it.

There was a waste of 2 1/2 hrs !! Minutes of action sequences connected by long periods of silence and tedious boredom. The scenery is spectacular, the acting is good... when something actually happens. And what is with this movie and water ?? It's winter, and everyone seems to want to jump into the river at every opportunity. PVR this thing when it comes on TV. That way you can skip through it

Long, unrealistic, brutal.

This was an amazing movie! If you're into "hollywood" type movies and endings, then move on. However, if you're into talented acting, gripping human drama, breath-taking landscapes - then see the movie. It was extremely well done.

Wow, what a movie! The cinematography was outstanding. Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy deliver excellent performances. The storyline was simple but everything about it was impactful. I must admit it was a bit too violent for me but it is in context of the time period.

Talk about "Having such a bad day" It was one damn thing after another. Very graphic, yet realistic! It's amazing what the human body can endure.... The cinematography was astounding! Very beautiful scenery!

Horrible movie. And that bear had every right to attack Glass, he should have left her cubs alone. Why are movies so violent these days? Is Hollywood trying to incite hatred amongst people? WTF?

good

Too unrealistic Waste time and money

I had high hopes for this movie, but it failed. Still was alright and does deserve some Oscar nominees, but overall, it wasn't the best. I really thought that Leonardo was going to win an Oscar from this movie based off of the reviews and what people said, but that changed quickly.

I really enjoyed the movie but I must say you need to prepare yourself for a LOT of violence. It was well acted, especially the part by Tom Hardy, which in my opinion should be the person up for an Oscar. Although Leo did a good job as well I really felt like Tom was the stellar role. Beautiful scenery, epic story, excellent movie.

Beautiful scenery, acting was good but too much Hollywood. I was disappointed....too much hype about a so-so film.

Although the scenic shots of the mountains/wilderness were nice, the storyline was very boring, dragged on wayyyy to long. As for Leonardo, have no idea why he is being considered for a best actor, as all he did for 90% of the movie was grunt, moan, drool and eat raw meat from carcasses of dead animals! In the end, this movie was lousy, and 3 hours of my life that i will never get back. I am doubly annoyed as i missed an amazing NFL playoff game (Green bay VS Arizona) to watch this bunk!!!!

we are glad we went to see this movie. my husband and I are in our 70's. we truly enjoyed this movie. great acting. to those who did not like this movie, is there some wrong with you? not enough sex and drugs for you young people.

Too long, boring after the bear attack !!! Could not understand the voices most time ? Over rated in so many ways and DiCaprio had more lives then the 9 my cat has !!! Academy award should go to the Bear, only action in the movie that was believeable !! Waste of money !!!

Being very generous at giving it a 4/10

Too long and way too much heavy breathing by Leo!!

Magnificent landscapes and fresh story telling combine for a visual and entertaining spectacle well worth the dollar to see it on the big screen. Dicaprio continues to demonstrate his acting chops. Different and enjoyable.

This was a great film. Its worth your time to see it in the big screen.

Brilliant film. Loved its power its visual beauty its historical significance and representation. And the cultural valies portrayed between trappers and natives.

One of the most powerful movies I have ever seen. Acting incredible, cinematography brilliant, musical score amazing. I wish more movies were made like this.

I found the dialogue difficult to understand and the story line a little bit preposterous. I was a bit disappointed.

What a waste of my time and money

Line delivery was pathetic. Acting was terrible. Cinematography was good though. This won a Golden Globe Award ? Hollywood is definitely politically corrupt.

Wait till it comes out on DVD.

At one point I was going to leave, terrible movie. Most of the movie was watching Leonardo crawling in snow of laying beside a small fire. At one point you actually wish the Indians would shoot him. Bdon't waste your time, have no idea how he won n award. If you go don't say I didn't tell you.

Sumptuous photography. Assured direction. Beautiful music. Excellent and committed performances - particularly by DiCaprio. It is a pity the film suffers from such poor scriptwriting - this film deserved much better. However, that said, the film is certainly worth 2 1/2 hours in a theatre just to see Emmanuel Lubezki's stunning visual palette on full display.
