The Revenant is every bit as technically proficient as Inarritu's "Birdman," a film that made critics swoon with its masterful handling of the filmmaker's daring "one-take" conceit. It manages, however, to do it without the same gimmicky feel.
Astounding. With a director, DoP and cast at the top of their game, The Revenant is a filmmaking triumph.

This movie was absolutely perfect, I loved everything about it. The soundtrack, the story, the characters ando the ambientation. I really DO recommend this film.

The fact that the last line of dialogue is spoken five minutes before the end credits roll is telling: Words matter little in a movie that favors seeing and feeling above all else. It’s a work of pure, furious sensation.
While the style may outpace the substance, that doesn't make the style any less magnificent. And when it comes to sheer customer satisfaction, The Revenant checks nearly every box, up to and including the man vs. wild throwdown. It just makes a jarring, memorable statement about how often the wild is likely to win that uneven fight.
There’s a sense that the whole doesn’t quite equal the sum of the parts, no matter how spectacular some of them are.
Though there's an awful lot to be admired - not least an enormously impressive soundscape - The Revenant ultimately lacks the nerve-jangling thrills or the spiritual resonance that it strives for.
What pushes the film, at long last, into the icy river, is its very design, as a monument to slick, mercenary grandeur.
One of the most beautifully shot, emotionally acted, character study's of all time I adore this movie. Leonardo DiCaprio's performance is emotionally driven has he is trying to get revenge on his sons killer played brillantly by Tom Hardy. Everything about this movie is just masterfully well done.

dont get me wrong, this is definitely a movie to watch, and dicaprio plays extraordinary as always and the cinematography is revolutionary. but its the screenplay and the whole story that seems irrelevant to such brilliant acting and cinematography.

It has good production value, but I didn't find the plot nor characters to be very engaging. It's a long movie, all of which I found boring. None of it seemed believable and I had no investment in the characters. Just not my preference.

First the good news. The cinematography is stunning - stark, bold, lumnescent. It owns the screen in a way I seldom see. Now for the rest. Based on a true story covers a multitude of sins. To keep it short and sweet, the plot is ludicrous and unbelievable and totally dependent on one outlandish coincidence after another. The character development is foolish, people made out of cardboard. All this leads to a climax out of a pulpy comic book. My one question to tye screenwriter. In this vast and frigid, white expanse of emptiness, how is it that all of the principals inevitably camped within a few hundred yards of each other and came across each other without fail for any of the action scenes? Gve me a break. If you can't see this on the wide screen it deserves, don't bother.
