Consensus: "Shitty movie; critics are saying it's Leo's worst, even worse than J Edgar".
May 6 - 12:17 PM
Eh, I know it's the 'new trend' to make your review, but I'm just going to leave it that it's going to be between 60 and 80%. Leonardo DeCaprio will probably save the day, the film itself looks more or less like the book, and of course it has Luhrmann. But I'm having doubts after seeing no reviews and the fact that it's in 3D.
May 5 - 08:58 AM
I'd say around a 70-80%
"Although The Great Gatsby is not as great as the book, it still has an excellent performance from Leonardo Dicaprio and a great storyline."
May 5 - 04:21 AM
i don't know a drama in 3D, feels like a money cashgrab with a huge cast, i would like 85%+ but pretty sure it is going to be about 60-70, anyways im always wrong i though IM3 was gonna be 85, Oblivion 92, Pain and Gain 75.
May 4 - 11:13 PM
66% - "although it lacks the subtlety of Fitzgerald's novel, Baz Luhrmann's adaptation features astonishing visuals and a strong central performance from Leonardo DiCaprio".
May 1 - 10:40 PM
My opinion? Low 60s to mid 70%s. I am having a problem not comparing it to Redford's version.
Critics? Mid to high 80%s. I have a feeling the majority will give it positive reviews.
Teens - 20s? 90-100%. Has flash, Leonardo, and hip-hop music.
30s - 40s? Between 40-50% or 80-90%s. They will either hate it or love it.
50s & older? Most won't grace this movie with a thought. I don't blame them either.
May 1 - 02:57 PM
I honestly have no freakin' clue with this one. I'll just say.. somewhere in the 60's or 70's.
May 1 - 09:14 AM
Since when did writing your own review-summarising sentence become a thing? It's weird.
I think it's a given this movie will look spectacular, but I honestly wouldn't have a clue about anything else. By the looks of the trailer, Luhrmann has, not astonishingly, missed the entire point of the entire damn book, but I don't think that's something that would bring the tomatometer down. I'd say...low 70s or so.

"An enjoyable remake of the classic Fitzgerald novel that ultimately relies too heavily on its style and performances to hide its lack of substance."
The plot of Fitzgerald's novel was never the strong point, but the style. I think the movie will follow suit.
Apr 30 - 09:02 PM
Too many skeptics here. I'm going with 90% or higher. I have high hopes for this film, and I am confident it will live up to them.
Apr 30 - 03:59 PM
Toby is guaranteed to suck big time and is a lead; that'll bring it down good. I say 70-80.
Apr 29 - 07:10 PM
A nice, even 50%
"Although the inevitable film adaptation of the novel is mostly accurate and faithful to the plot, The Great Gatsby is too bulky a work to move over to film and eventually succumbs to the same level of pointlessness and self-indulgence that plagued such films as August Rush and Atlas Shrugged."

"Baz Luhrmann's adaptation of the timeless F. Scott Fitzgerald novel may not have the best execution, but The Great Gatsby still shines on with astonishing 3D visuals, stellar performances, and a very unique use of modern-day music in its 1920's setting."
Apr 29 - 12:06 PM
I heard the score is produced by Jay-Z so I'm gonna say 0%. Fuck this bastardization of a classic novel.
Apr 29 - 11:36 AM
So, because the score is produced by one of the most talented, well-respected people in the music industry, it's guaranteed to suck? You're an idiot.
Apr 30 - 12:51 PM
Jay-z, Talented? LOLOLOLOLOL In another universe and timeline far away from this one, sure, but not in this universe...I don't want some shitty fucked up rap music in the Great Gatsby.
Apr 30 - 01:14 PM
Josh, I just wait for the day your fellow tribesman pull a "michael jackson/mc hammer" on that creature from equitorial africa. Talented? It's strange how your tribe never pushes "rap" music in israel...can't imagine why that is...but anyway, I can't wait for the day the tribe pulls the rug out from this one and he's left screaming, bill fold missing and owing the IRS 80 million and the tribesman shurg and say "not our fault" as they count their profits.
May 3 - 10:33 PM
"well-respected???" Sorry, I just had to come back for that one. If I made a song bragging about how I'd poisoned my community by selling crack/cocaine, how "well-respected" would I be?
May 3 - 10:35 PM
45%, the film looks Batman & Robin flamboyant mixed with 'Australia' vapidity, though it will most likely be salvaged by the cast and the spectacle.
Apr 29 - 09:51 AM
Baz Luhrmann is flamboyant style over substance director, I think ultimately it will be between 57 and 35%. He'll probably suck as much subtance out of the source material as he can and replace it with flashy production designs and overuse of modern music in inappropriate historical setting etc. Long story short I'm really not a Baz Luhrmann fan.
Apr 29 - 07:06 AM
No film adaptation of "Gatsby" has ever succeeded, and I doubt this one will either. With Baz Luhrmann as director and no clear sense of the audience who will want to see this, I predict less than 50%. Probably closer to 30%.
Apr 25 - 02:30 PM
I disagree. Baz Luhrmann's films have done 95%, 71%, 76%, and 55% being his lowest. I'm not sure how him being director hurts the film. Not to mention the clear marketing initiative to appeal to the younger crowd. All people will want to see this film for many different reasons.
Apr 29 - 12:12 AM
Luhrmann hurts the film because he is a foreigner adapting one of the great American novels. Graned, I've only seen previews like everyone else, but he doesn't seem to understand the Jazz Age nor does he seem to have respect for the source material (I'm sorry but a Kanye West, Lana Del Ray & Jay-Z soundtrack for a film set in the 1920s is marketing not art). Luhrmann told the LA Times that his film was informed by "what was left unsaid" in the novel: in other words, not really interested in the words on the page or the "vague" title character, but instead making up dialogue and plot points based on other Fitzgerald writings and letters.

Book was good and the movie was better. The only thing that I remember or gave a crap about in high school. Well that and my history teacher. :) She was also the girls' volleyball coach. Seeing her run braless in a sweaty white t top was AWESOME!!!!! This movie? The Leoretardo DeCappuccino remake? No thanks, pass.
Apr 23 - 12:50 AM
Around the 70%. I don't think this will as good as people expect it to be. And I'm not particularly a Luhrmann fan. I'm rather afraid of what he will do to this brilliant story. From what I saw in the trailer, the costuming is awfully inaccurate.
Apr 18 - 11:21 AM
I'm going with 88-93% and with some Oscar buzz, I may be putting a little too much faith into this one but I can't help it. I REALLY want this to be good.
Apr 14 - 05:12 PM
My dream? 90-93%. For some reason I truly have a feeling this will be Baz Luhrmanns masterpiece and be a box office and critical success. The cast is fantastic(Leo,Mulligan,and Edgerton are great, Tobey is okay), the Score sounds absolutely amazing especially from the new trailer, the visuals look splendid(that fireworks scene from the new trailer is jaw dropping), and its from a great source material(the one book I loved In high school).
Realistically thinking though, maybe 78-87%.
Apr 14 - 11:18 AM
The previous Gatsby adaptions have been trash, and I don't expect that much different. 50. I hope I am wrong.
