I'm a big fan of Leonardo DiCaprio and why wouldn't I be, he is a great actor when he's in good movies and he's a total dreamboat. Loved him since Titanic (not a great movie but again he is a dreamboat). But in this movie he wasn't at his best and I don't blame him. Maybe it's because I had such high expectations going into this movie with the great actors attached to it and the subject matter (they're doing The Great Gatsby for goodness sakes) but I thought it was pretty bad. I honestly almost left the theatre like my friend wanted to but ended up convincing her to stick around until the bitter end. I think the main reason this was a disaster is that the director didn't have a clue what he was doing. Way too many beautiful shots of people dancing like flappers and champagne and all the roaring 1920's nostalgia which isn't what the movie is supposed to be about. DiCaprio was wasted and the rest of the cast pretty much was too. Daisy was not cast right she's a great actress but not right for this part. A real missed opportunity and a disappointing film, avoid watching it unless nothing at all else is on TV.
