Revolutionary Road (24/02/10)
I am about a year behind on all the good movies I should be seeing, but trying to catch up now. Revolutionary Road had been on my ‘to-watch’ list for a long time, but now, no more! Brilliant movie. Wasn’t at all disappointed while watching. I had no real idea about the movie other than it was directed by Sam Mendes, Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet are reunited and they play a couple in fifties America. Oh and apparently I should line up something extremely happy to watch after I’ve seen this movie. Good tip!
Really brilliant movie which looked stunning and the leads were brilliant. It’s a heartbreaking movie to watch. In the back of my mind I realised where it was all heading, though I was quite happy to be fooled and play along and pretend everything was going to work out fine.
Rating: 5/5
