Viewed twice, despite other skeptical reviews. I loved The Great Gatsby. I think viewers who go and don't like the film were actually those who've had never read or enjoyed the book.... so yeah, there's some bias to this review.
I first read Gatsby back in high school and re-read it a couple summers ago, just out of a whim. I liked it then, I still like it now. The only thing I couldn't get past was the music. It's far too modern for the era, and it didn't fit well to begin with. I'm told that's good ole Luhrmann. Too bad he has a bad ear for sound. 4/5 Stars.
