This movie perfectly captures the anti-hero. You will find ways to justify the actions of snow throughout. You understand him, but you don’t like him, or maybe you do. It’s hard to tell, which is why the movie is so good at what it aims to do. When do you separate ambition from selfishness? What and who are you willing to sacrifice to achieve your goals? This movie makes you ponder a lot of those questions.
I love this movie. Original storytelling in recent years seems largely gone. This movie was so unique and built on a really creative idea and premise. DeNiro and Cooper have palpable chemistry as two tycoons. A lot of great underlying messages of course. The only reason this gets 4 stars is because there are some plot holes and the ending is less than satisfying.
Good music, and excellent performances from Chalamet, Norton, and Barbaro; however, the movie leaves a lot to be desired. There’s no mention of Bob’s major motorcycle accident and you leave the theatre liking Bob Dylan the person less.
