Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Will Poulter
2015
A frontiersman on a fur trading expedition in the 1820s fights for survival after being mauled by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team.
I reckon I've found a new favorite in The Revenant. DiCaprio's performance hit the spot; it was raw and gritty, just like the bear attack scene. The wilderness looked so real, it felt like I was right there in the snow with 'em. This ain't just another action flick; it's got depth and it shows the real struggle of survival. It tugged at my heartstrings, but in a good way. The pacing was spot-on and didn't drag one bit.
