I finished the book recently and when I was watching this movie I thught I was reading the book again. This is one of the best adaption of a book I've ever seen. The acting was great. Leonardo DiCaprio did a marvelous work, as always. I also love Toby McGuire performance. The worst is the music, too modern for that age.

A lot of poeple talked very high about this movie but to me despite the loud music and the overrated parties it was kind of OK
the best thing in it was Leonardo , I saw it because of him

I liked it!! , visually stunning , great music , good performances and I watched on Blu-ray 3D and it I think it makes it better

First half of the movie feels like one long trailer, due to choppy, messy editing and over stylized cinematography. You can tell that this is where The Suicide Squad got its ideas from.

Soundtrack and the music choice are also questionable, with a few instances where it's actually fitting.

I haven't read the book, but the mini series seems like a much better fit for story this complex and ambitious. This way, it's just a messy movie with a great cast and direction choices that just makes you ask yourself what the hell they were thinking?!

This is the greatest movie to watch when you are high or drunk. The whole movie feels like an existential experience. 9/10.

Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the finest actors of all time, did not discover myself, but particularly in this film, he seems born for the part of the Great Gatsby. The final, leaves the viewer breathless...

The only reason I managed to watch this movie until the end was Leonardo DiCaprio. Amazing perfomance from an amazing actor. None of the other actors stand out (except perhaps Edgerton), and Maguire was terrible.

But the worst thing about this movie is, by far, its score: I felt literally disgusted by it. And it was not only because the (bad) artists who participated in it, but also and mainly because it has nothing to do with the 20s era; it fails to transmit the Jazz hype that period had. I can not understand how modern-era music can help the viewers to connect with Gatsby's parties' emotions. It just feels so unreal, so unnatural, so fake.

The book adaption itself is not bad, it actually sticks with the original story... But it is not enough to make it a good movie. I'll try to remember Baz Luhrmann's name so to avoid any of his other films.

"The Great Gatsby" is not for everybody, but If you love good storytelling and don't really pay any mind to some exaggerations on the movie, the film itself can be fun and entertaining. Starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire and Michelle Williams, "The Great Gatsby is a remake that tells the story of a young mysterious millionaire caught between the love of a beautiful woman (Michelle Williams) and his mysterious business that only his good friend (Tobey Maguire) knows about (Hopefully I didn't said too much). The film is set in the 1920's with a very contemporary CGI style. Is not a believable 1920's setting but still sets the tone of that decade. The film was supposed to be Leonardo's tour de force for an Oscar nomination but Joel Edgerton in my opinion stole the film hands down. His portrayal of Tom Buchanan gives the character and the story an overall emotional depth that makes the film interesting and entertaining. "The Great Gatsby" might not be for everybody but if you like Leonardo's acting (Like me), and really don't take every film seriously even when they are just silly and stupid(Like the soundtrack on this film) you might not have a hard time enjoying a very interesting story and some very good decent acting.

Fuck you Tom and Daisy..wish there's sequel that Daisy will be like in Wrong Turn movie.damn

Soundtrack and costumes doing a fair amount of the heavy lifting but it's a decent flick

Mesmerizingly directed and stylishly presented film, with amazing performances and an enjoyable, but predictable, story.

I was sceptical to watch this movie. Don’t get me wrong, of course, I like DiCaprio but I didn’t want to watch it until I read the book. I read it and still in awe after reading it I watched the movie and gladly accepted Leonardo as Mr. Gatsby. And fell in love with the character over again.
To be honest I was quite bored in some parts of the movie but it was the same with the book. And the movie is absolutely great adaptation of the book which is not usual.
The movie is just like the book and nothing more or less.
Oh and there's a great soundtrack too!

Awesome performance, nice plot, never read the book. My expectations for the movie was that would be boring, but it was very entertaining and normal I don't like romance movies but this one is good.

Unwatchable. synthesizers, dance beats and rap music in the 20s ....really?
