Nightcrawler
“I’m Not Willing to Jeopardise my Company for You”
Just wow i am completely speechless to what i have just watched this movie is so insanely good and immersive which makes it as good as it is you don’t really expect the climax of this movie to really happen what i mean is the entrance to the final act is very hidden but that is a very cool and refreshing pace to see in a film
The cinematography was absolutely beautiful this movie is genuinely so stunning and pleasant to the eyes the illuminated nightlife of L.A is so jaw dropingly gorgeous and some of the basic shots during the mid act of the film were so good for example when Lou Bloom was watching the police officers leave his apartment was an amazing shot
The acting is just perfect Jake Gyllenhall in my opinion will go down as one of the GOAT’s of cinema the raw passion and emotion he puts into all his roles is so good which makes me highly recommend everyone to delve deeper in to his filmography but back to his performance in this film what can i even say? he just makes it feel so real and pure and especially the shot of him breaking down in front of the mirror in his bathroom that’s a great scene from him
The plot is very good and original which was a nice change of pace to see a kind of different style of story and i’m not sure if it’s really implied in this film but i can sort of see a mental decline from the character of Lou Bloom and just seeing how far he would go to make himself at the top is insane to see and what Lou Did to Richard honestly justice for Rich
The only thing i didn’t like about this movie is the fact that we didn’t get more out of the ending i felt it was very lackluster and didn’t really close out much to the story and what happened with Lou and the police
So overall this is a breathtakingly beautiful movie and highly worth a watch
