The great Gatesby old sport review




I want to say first off never read the book or seen the original. That said I loved the film it was visually stunning and kept my attention throughout the film don't get me wrong it was slow in places but I cant see where they would cut scenes out as it all adds up to the greater picture. 

Synopsis 

An adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's Long Island-set novel, where Midwesterner Nick Carraway is lured into the lavish world of his neighbor, Jay Gatsby. Soon enough, however, Carraway will see through the cracks of Gatsby's nouveau riche existence, where obsession, madness, and tragedy await



Everyone outs in a great performance especially Leo. Who probably wont get an Oscar nod as its too far away. The director of this is also the director of Romeo and Juliet and I do believe that was a great choice as he has a hand in  forbidden love.The film doesn't have you rooting for anyone really except Toby  character as he has his life ruined by these people who he befriends and does anything to help them out. 
I do believe this is a film for film lovers and not for casual viewers. The film has strong themes running throughout the film of friendship, forbidden love 


 Its very touching and well worth a watch with your lady friend. This film probably wont do that well in box off as it was up against fast 6 and the hangover 3 bad time to release this film
Recommend highly.

Vegas





This show doesnt get enough attention and because of that we may not get another season.
If u missed it I recommend you watch it. Dennis Quaid is a great cowboy sheriff with a town that respects him whilst he tries to uphold the law Michael Chiklis  is running the Savoy casino and hotel which is run by the Chicago mob.

Heres a trailer to wet your appetite



The series is a weekly show with a case of  the week basis with characters developing every week making u like them more and more. Another great factor in this is Jason O Mara who plays Quaid.'s brother this was the guy who was in Terra Nova which got cancelled so it would be a shame for him as he cant seem to get a break.



So if you're not watching Do It!!!

The Following

So this tele show started off well and has had a bumpy journey to the end.

I feel instead of having 15 episodes it would have been better off at 6 or 7.
The the premise is that a serial killer has his son kidnapped whilst he escapes from prison and along the way people die. Joe Carroll has a nemesis who is Ryan who was the guy who put Carroll in prison and so begins the cat and mouse game which is soooo far fetched.

Many people have said how stupid this show is making the FBI look stupid.
The basic premise is good but some of the stunts they pull along the way is ridiculous.
One thing that I don't get is how he (Joe Carroll) had so many followers from when he was inside a prision cell.

The season finale tries to pull you back in for the next time round with Carroll dead meaning each follower will be doing anything they want I guess with no herder for the sheep to follow.



Will you be going back next season leave comments in the box below.


Thanks for reading
Dave.
