was a commendable representation of the book by F. Scott Fitzgerald that it was based off of. The roles of the main characters Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio)‚ Daisy Buchanan (Carey Mulligan)‚ Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton)‚ and Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) were played on point.

Gatsby In the book The Great Gatsby‚ by F. Scott Fitzgerald‚ a man tries to get the love of his life back‚ and ends up dying because of it. Now some people think this is heroic but others think he was just plain stupid. The director Baz Luhrmann adapted the book into a movie and did a good job portraying some aspects of the book‚ like the characters and the overall plot. He also did a good job of adding new things into it to make the movie better‚ like Nick’s life after Gatsby. The book has some strong
