The Great Gatsby 3D Movie Review 5 stars worthy

A few days ago, I went to see "The Great Gatsby" movie at the Dolphin Moll. I went to see it with my family. After some persuasion, I convinced them to see the movie in 3D. At first, I thought that we were the only idiots watching "The Great Gatsby" in 3D. A few minutes later, the theater was full of people. It had been a long time since I watched a 3D movie. The graphics came out great.





At the start of the film, we saw the green light that the Great Gatsby was always gazing at. The audience is slowly enchanted by that light. Later in the film, the narrator explains its significance. The remake of this film was better than the last three version. The reason being that Leonardo DiCaprio made a Great Gatsby. Truly, DiCaprio made a great Gatsby.

He was exquisite in the part where Gatsby showed his true colors. Like in the book, the director managed to allude well to Gatsby's true nature. Like the rich people, Gatsby was a pretender. As a matter of fact, he was the biggest lair of them all. However, what made him the great Gatsby was that he did it all for love. What I found most creepy were the evil eyes in slums of New York.

For those that never read the book or saw the first movies, I highly recommend this remake. The graphics are exquisite. It is like a new kind of 3D. The best scenes took place during Gatsby's great parties. They were each more extravagant than the last. Overall, there where at least 3 party scenes. The fireworks, the snow, the flowers and the sparkles got in your face a lot. However, what I like best was the 3D snow effect.

The oddest 3D effect came from the lights. In a strange way, it made you feel as if the sun was really in your face. Needless to say, if you stared at it directly you would go blind. Nah, that is a bit of an exaggeration. There was something that I did not like about the movie. The music was a blend of the 1920s music and our modern day music. Needless to say, they had to update the music to attract a  younger audience.

The organ player was was pretty cool. Overall, "The Great Gatsby" was pretty great. Frankly, this remake was the only Great Gatsby that I actually liked. When I was in high school, they tried to shove  "The Great Gatsby" down my throat. The book was pretty boring. The movie versions that followed where not so great, either. However, this new version was amassing. As the saying goes: The fifth time is the charm. In any case, this "The Great Gatsby 3D" movie  is a 5 stars worth movie.
