The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 (11/29/14)

Just got back from watching Nightcrawler, and I have to say it is a very well made movie. It has a very unique plot, it’s beautifully shot, and it’s thoroughly entertaining. The director did a great job at shinning a light on the dark side of TV news, and of the blurred line between news and entertainment. I can’t say that I’ve ever seen a movie like this one, its unique in so many ways. The film is very suspenseful, you really don’t know what is going to happen next, I was on the edge of my seat the entire time. The supporting cast did a good job, but in the end it’s Jake Gyllenhaal that steals the show. He does an excellent job portraying his character, who is about as creepy as they come. He does such an amazing job, you really do believe that he is a sociopath. The one thing I didn’t like about the movie was how it ended, but I loved everything up until that point. Overall, Nightcrawler is a very well made movie that keeps you guessing at every turn and leaves you entertained. I don’t know how much longer it’s going to be in theaters, but if you get a chance I recommend watching it, it’s worth it just for Jake Gyllenhaal’s performance alone. 4/5
