**No spoilers**
Whoooooowee! What a great film! This is one of the rare excellent movies that in my opinion, you only need to see once. The only other film that left me with this type of impression was The Passion of the Christ.
This movie is emotionally and physically draining. Just watching a man get the hell beat out of him at ever turn is surprisingly tiring to watch. The message of this movie is quite simple: The power of vengeance to fuel a man's will to survive. By the time you leave the theater, you just want to sit by a fire and sip some hot cocoa.
The visuals are stunning. Panoramic nature shots, gripping close ups, computer graphics (The bear), and everything in between was fantastically done. The opening scene alone is quite literally THE BEST choreographed and shot battle scene I have ever seen.
You can tell that DiCaprio, Hardy, the supporting actors, and the crew went through absolute HELL to make this movie and it is definitely worth watching.
