Just finished watching Revenant.
Excellent movie. The mauling will go down in history as one of the most amazing scenes ever filmed.
The ending

Spoiler for Spoiler:
him seeing the wife and looking into the camera


felt a little corny, but that's a very minor criticism for an overall amazing movie.

Definitely want to see this movie. Not as bad as Devil In The White City however.

I can't wait for it to come out as well. The book is brilliant and I trust Scorcese to do well with it.

I agree the book was fantastic. Scorcese always does well with violent portrayals and has a good vision for narratives.

Watched The Revanent today and I just have to say that surviving sucks. Great film, I especially loved the camerawork.

Sicario. Great great flick. Incredible acting. All of the leads are killer but Benicio steals almost every scene he's in. The cinematography will likely get an Oscar nod.

Spoiler for Spoiler:
The sequence early on where they drive into Mexico to extradite the cartel dude was so freaking intense.

hateful 8

has some okay dialogue but overall not on par with quentin's other works. It seems like the film was in response to the terrific response to the dialogue scenes of inglorious bastards, as such the film was pitched as a marathon of such scenes. This results in an unambitious plot and less inspired characters.

Still worth watching, but not very memorable. Put it along foxy brown or w/e that film was called.
