  Finally inteligent and GREAT movie! It is not for everybody. It is for real thinking movie lover. Leo is incredibly talanted actor who makes you a beliver in the power of the cinema. This film must be seen.

  The facts? The movie includes language and behavior that is modern day, people didn't talk like that in 54, so that's a distraction. No surprise about the graphic violence its Scorcese! Not for the faint of heart. And the smoking, yeah we get it, there were NO nonsmokers, we've all seen Mad Men. Opinion: The hyper-realism... See More of stuff like the repeated striking of matches, like bombs going off, tiresome/boring. The "twist" at the end, I was on to that about half way through, about the same time I started to bore of it all. One of the things about actors is they are asked to commit to the role, Well DiCaprio commits even though what he is asked to do is weak at best. Some of the shot

  If Avatars story was this good it would deserve to still be in the theaters. Special affects are nice, but this is a good movie!

  It wasn't what I expected, but was pleasantly surprised. I thought it would be a supernatural thriller that might leave a brown spot on your seat, but it wasn't really scary and more like a mind bending mystery. I thought it was suspenseful and was engaged the whole movie trying to figure out the twists. I like how they left the movie to your imagination at the end by leaving it sort of up in the air. I wouldn't normally want to sea a movie twice, but the twist at the end of this movie leaves it so you could enjoy it the second time in a new light without it being spoiled by knowing the ending. I thought the acting was good. I don't agree with anyone who says De Caprio can't act.

  Somehow I got mixed feelings about this one .. I felt at some point that it was slow(i.e. the beginning), then I felt that the suspense was good to keep you watching .. and at the end, after thinking about the whole thing, I liked the story. It is a good movie, worth watching, but you do need to have the time and the mind in the right set to enjoy it. It's a bit more than 2hrs, but at the end, you will be glad you sat through the whole thing ..

  First movie in a long time you have no idea where the story will lead. Its a edge of your seat ride that pases itself perfectly...if your any normal educated person you WILL NOT find it confusing...there is actually nothing confusing about this movie...you just have to listen...and the ending conclusion will rattle your mind. Best Thriller to come out in quite some time.

  One of the most intense, dark, and twisted films I have seen in a while. Despite what critics are saying, DiCaprio brings high-calibre acting to the role, and Mark Ruffalo and Ben Kingsley supplement this. Well worth your money if you don't mind leaving the theatre shaky and agitated.
