Customer Rating:
Summary: VERY GOOD
Comment: This movie was better than I anticipated it to be. The acting by Blair Underwood and Richard T. Jones was awesome. I thought the story line could have been much better but well worth seeing.
Customer Rating:
Summary: I didnt think it was that bad
Comment: The movie has beautiful people, styling, and scenery. OK acting, a very unrealistic story line, and the over all movie definitely could have been better. I'm not to familiar with the Great Gatsby so that may be why I just didn't get the movie... however it was captivating and kept my attention.

Summary: A word for teachers
Comment: Without negating what other reviewers already have said about the movie itself, let me add that this is a great counterpoint to the Robert Redford version of Gatsby. If you can get past the language (it's pretty rough, especially with several actors' overabundant use of the "f" word) and a pretty graphic love scene between Summer G and Skye (though we only see their backs) -- hey, this is a PG, after all -- it's a nice update of the original movie. I show parts of G to my inner-city high school students after we watch the Redford version. They immediately see the similarities and point out the differences, and actually get enthusiastic about the story. G has never failed to help me help my students connect to the original Gatsby. Be careful and judicious in your use of G, but think about using parts of it to help students connect to the original source material.
