❝ Director Luhrmann, the author of other interesting films like "Moulin Rouge", offers us the rise, success, and decline of the legendary Elvis (notably portrayed by Austin Butler) in a dazzling and flamboyant way from the perspective of his manager, Colonel Tom Parker.
❝ With the help of dazzling sets, suspended between historical reconstruction and dreamlike settings (sometimes overly contrived), the film unfolds through a well-balanced recipe of genres: melodrama, comedy, and musical.
❝ Luhrmann's film (which uses a soundtrack halfway between jazz and hip hop) undeniably has great merits that are not only tied to the rich and sumptuous set design, as well as the excellent performance (perhaps it's obvious to mention) of an actor of Leonard DiCaprio's caliber (perfect as Jay Gatsby) and also Tobey McGuire as Nick Carraway, the protagonist's fortunate neighbor.
❝ A courageous, curious, intriguing film; a winning bet, a film by a director who is a "real" director.
