Movie Review: Nightcrawler (2014)
Nightcrawler
Genre: Thriller/Drama
Rated: R
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
I went into Nightcrawler blind. I just ordered the ticket at the theatre, not knowing what to expect, and I’m rather happy that I did. This film was unique and engaging.
The beginning was a bit slow, to build the story, which is forgivable. It picked up pace gradually, and made into an amazing film, the ending of which was fast paced and action-packed. The film overall was well paced.
Jake Gyllenhaal never fails to impress. He is one of the leads in one of my favorite films, Prisoners, so of course I had high expectations for Nightcrawler. I was not disappointed.
The film had a slight Indie type feel, which added to the unique, dark, and slightly disturbing mood of the movie. Gyllenhaal’s character was disturbing in a sociopathic way. I found myself liking his character, but at the same time fearing him. He was slightly disturbed, but unique and provoking.
There was a lot of violence and some gore in this film, as well as some dark topics, which were necessary to add depth to the story and well-executed.
The ending was my favorite part. There was a small plot-twist moment in the storyline which was a great turn but also slightly anticipated.
The overall concept and topic of the film was entirely unique and well-executed. It was refreshing to see a film that doesn’t have a million others with the same exact idea.
Overall, I rate this film 4.5 out of 5 stars. I recommend this movie, especially to fans of horror and psychological thrillers. It was unique, engaging, and made me think deeper that most action-ish films will make me. Gyllenhaal gave a fantastic performance.The ending was unexpected, and I found that I learned a lot of life advice from this film, oddly enough. I was pleasantly surprised with this film, it has definitely been one of the best ones I have seen this year.
