Yup pretty intense. Good trailer too, I have no idea what the movie is about.

My only issue is sketchy looking CGI... But we see that often with early trailers. I hope the final movie doesn't look so phony.

I can't see it being cheesy with the CGI especially since Leo is only in A+ movies

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Revenant_(2015_film)

In the 19th century, Hugh Glass (DiCaprio), a fur trapper, is mauled by a bear while hunting. His companions (Hardy, Poulter, Haas, and Gleeson)[3] rob him and leave him to die, but he survives and sets out to get revenge on the men who betrayed him.[4]

This movie was mainly filmed in BC as well

I'm really wondering how much talking there will be in the movie, if he's left in the bushes to die there might be a lot of him walking through the forest and trying to find the way to get his revenge with not much interaction with other actors.

So that's why he's been sporting that hobo beard all this time... Looks intense, and I like what's shown of the cinematography plus its Leo so I'll definitely see it

leo's movies are good, but he's always the same intense emotional guy that he plays. Great roles in each film, intense acting, great transformation, which i full agree. He just needs needs to play another sub set of characters with diff. depths.

Matthew McConaughey in Dallas Buyers Club was a much better award over wolf of wall street. Jamie Foxx in Ray over The Aviator. Steve Carell in Foxcatcher and Sean Penn in Milk were all extremely above and beyond what I thought was a better performance than Leo.

A lot of great actors haven't won it... it doesn't mean anything anyways just the opinions of a few critics with voting rights

I almost got a part in this film...would have been a cool show to be a part of.

But I was just shooting in Calgary a couple months ago, and some crew were on the show I was on that were on The Revenant. Most of the film was shot in Alberta, actually. They had a ton of money, but shot it in the middle of nowhere Alberta. Pretty rough weather conditions for the crew.

But also, I have several first-hand reports of how hard it was to work on the film. Inarritu, as much of a genius as he is as a filmmaker, is a lunatic, and an asshole. Several highly qualified veteran department heads and crew were fired or quit, because of Inarritu's crazy demands. Also heard that Tom Hardy had a serious problem with him and other issues; but again, as awesome as Tom Hardy is, he's known to be a problem on set.

Would have been a great experience and looked great on the resume, but overall it sounded like a nightmare project.

Needless to say though, I'm sure the end result will be awesome, judging by the trailer.

Just watched it and WOW what a great movie, I found a number of scenes hard to watch but damn it was good and Leo straight up killed it. He has to win best actor for this, know one has even been close to his acting the past year.

DiCaprio experienced the magic of a chinook, which he described as "scary" in a Variety.com article while shooting The Revenant near Calgary last winter.

"I've never experienced something so first-hand that was so dramatic. You see the fragility of nature and how easily things can be completely transformed with just a few degrees difference. It's terrifying, and it's what people are talking about all over the world. And it's simply just going to get worse," said DiCaprio.

"We were in Calgary and the locals were saying, 'This has never happened in our province ever.' We would come and there would be eight feet of snow, and then all of a sudden a warm gust of wind would come."

pretty crazy movie I gotta say. glad they did the shoot outdoors in alberta.
it was a much slower movie than i expected. Yes it's epic pretty, they could've cut 20 minutes to flow better, then again, you wouldn't "feel" the pain of the movie.

A few holy fuck moments and man, seeing them in and out of the waters, much have been so so so cold; whoever says they don't deserve to be paid what they do, they should watch this.

quotes from the director: "If we ended up in greenscreen with coffee and everybody having a good time, everybody will be happy, but most likely the film would be a piece of shit."

One of the actors was on the radio a couple weeks ago talking about the filming. He said for the part where Leo carries him through the water, they made a dummy to look like him for Leo to carry, as it would be about half the weight... but Leo insisted on carrying him instead, for the realism. Talk about suffering for your craft.

It was limited release. Doesn't come out until the 9th I think. You can download it though since it got leaked online. Probably leaked from award season copies.

This movie should have been filmed on 70mm! so many great vistas

Also, Tom Hardy outperformed Leo in this imo

8/10

I also found Tom Hardy had a strong showing. Going into the movie I wanted to be blown away, but it just didn't stack up for me.

Was actually disappointed with it. Leo was great in it, but it won't win him any awards.

Would not watch again.

I've seen most of his movies more than twice.

I actually didn't really like the movie. Thought it was slow and boring. Acting from leo and tom were very good though.

^^^...i felt more like that about hateful 8 than this film,now that was slow with tons of talking....both felt like a western but i enjoyed the whole winter theme going on in this film with the entertaining action scenes.

it's a mix and match. the filming was super pretty and you got to FEEL how cold the entire movie was (theaters versus watching it at home), whereas the hateful 8 was more like problem solving...

i mean, there were scenes i was like HOLY FUCK in the Revenant (cold water freezing etc) but definitely not for hateful 8

Finally opens here on Friday FeelsGoodMan

It's been killing me having to wait for this and Hateful Eight to open here! These are the two movies I've been looking forward to probably even more than Star Wars!

Tom Hardy outdid leo in this movie for sure

many ppl fell asleep during this movie.. hahaa

Watched it last night, I guess I'm in the minority but I've never 'truly enjoyed' these Oscar'ish type movies. The acting from both Leo and Hardy were amazing, but the movie much longer than I felt was necessary.
I fell asleep in many of these "great" movies... Lincoln, Gravity, The King's Speech to name a few.
I am actually 100x more stoked for Deadpool lol.
I guess for me personally, "enjoying" a movie is watching fun entertainment for a couple hours and walk out with a stupid grin on my face.

Did anyone else feel that Leo watched a lot of Bear Grylls from Man vs Wild beforehand?

- Biting the raw fish out of the river
- The raw bison heart
- Sleeping inside a dead animal for warmth
- Finding grass to eat for survival
