• the good gatsby

  
  — Authority:
  I had fervently hoped that Baz Luhrmann’s signature brand of loopy romanticism was exactly the antidote for staid, sullen efforts to bring literary classics to the screen like the plodding 1974 Redford version . He delivered enough to make a movie good enough to be worth watching, at least for completist Gatsby ...

• The Great Gatsby Review

  
  — Authority:
  Rating: 2 out of 5 stars The Great Gatsby is a film so uneven and bizarre that it’s hard to know where to begin reviewing it.
