Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
The journey is long and painstaking, the better to give you a sense of just what is being opposed to what.
DiCaprio is called on to depict the man's desperation, grief and searing anger almost entirely through his eyes and he does it with remarkable depth, turning Glass's endurance into a steadfastness both physical and emotional.
DiCaprio may get put through bloody hell, but on a big screen "The Revenant" is heaven, with Lubezki's camera painting the American West as a rapturous primeval proving ground.
There is so much to like and admire and study closely, including DiCaprio's mature, committed, ruthless and yet empathetic performance.
