Most Depressing Movie Ever

January 25,2010

omg this movie was amazing! maybe it takes being married for a long time to really understand the strains a relationship can go through. . and the... storyline was something people can relate to. the acting was amazing. but of course, not something youd watch if you're in the mood for guns and witty one liners. i've heard a lot of bad reviews on it but i really enjoyed it. you can never go wrong with kate winslet and leonardo di caprio.

This movie is soooo horrible. It was very slow and boring. I saw people sleeping in the theater. the entire movie is based around how kate winslet's... character is feeling and her character is moody and often annoying. What a waste of my time. Full Review

I can't help but to share how utterly impressed I was with this film. After leaving the theater, I felt as though something had changed in me. This... movie really strikes a chord, especially if you feel the effects of the mundane repetitiveness of everyday life. DiCaprio and Winslet's performances were hair-raising. I am shocked that this movie was not nominated for an Oscar-- blows Benjamin Button out of the water... more evidence of the ingenuinity of the academy, but it was amazing nonetheless. Much better than Slumdog Millionaire in my opinion. It was raw emotion. You feel something deep inside, when you seen this movie. It gets my academy award. Full Review

The best American film of 2008.Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

DiCaprio is in peak form, bringing layers of buried emotion to a defeated man. And the glorious Winslet defines what makes an actress great, blazing commitment to a character and the range to make every nuance felt.Full Review

Revolutionary Road is a fine motion picture, but it's not a good choice to lighten a burden or brighten a night. It rewards in the ways that only tragedies can.Full Review

The best thing about Revolutionary Road, a cool-blooded and disquieting adaptation of Richard Yates' 1961 novel about a powerfully unhappy Connecticut couple, is that it doesn't end with that rote vision of bourgeois anomie. It only begins there.Full Review
