9/10
More than a redemption story

Warning: Spoilers
The revenant is a survival and a "godly" revenge movie. The movie was great, the plot that is based on a novel by Mark Smith that I didn't read has a really good story that it is based around the time when Europeans landed on America. The fight for survival of native Americans v. the invaders which leads to much killings and less understanding.

Alejandro did an amazing job on directing he also did the screenplay which was on the top. Photography was stunning, the camera work is amazing and one camera shoots scenes these days are rare. Acting starting from Leo was phenomenal, not going to start bragging but the dude did an amazing job he was spectacular. This must be the movie that he talks the least than in other movies but still good job done by him on the other aspects. Tom is just confirming that he is a top class actor, if Leo doesn't win anything for this then Tom totally deserves it for supporting role.

A nice addition was that comet that I have to mention.

Also the end credit which was mixed with Leo's breath was a nice additional little thing as we know masterpieces are achieved on details.

Overall great movie with amazing editing, directing, camera and screenplay. Great performance by Leo and Tom, maybe maybe this will be your year guys.
