    My thoughts: Personally, a gripe I had with this movie is that I felt it was miscast. It felt like he was playing a very typical Di Caprio role as Ernest Burkhart which at this point it feels like he’s a bit old to be playing. I felt like Leo would of been much more interesting in this movie if he was cast as Hale tbh. The role of Ernest Burkhart should of gone to someone much younger in my opinion.

    The cinematography is superb and I like the touch of the town slowly getting more modern looking over the course of the film. Lily Gladstone is great in this movie and really makes you feel her characters trauma.

    Despite being 3 hours though I felt this was paced much to quickly. Everything moves very quickly and it’s like you don’t get to experience what the characters are experiencing. It just keeps going on to the next thing. The events that this movie are based off of are complex and convulated, they would be much more suited to a 10 episode ministries rather than a movie.

    I won’t give away the ending but I didn’t like it. I felt like there’s better ways they could of rapped this movie up than what they went with.

    5/10.

    I really enjoyed it. Didn’t know anything about the book or anything that was going to happen. The use of music in the movie was awesome which is just part of being a Scorsese movie, particularly the ones at the very beginning and end.

    A lot happens in this movie and I feel like a second viewing will be required now that I know who is who and can pick up on things that I missed. Pacing was quick though, never thought any part was moving slow or tedious.
