The Great Gatsby Trailer (2013)

Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Isla Fisher, Joel Edgerton, Jason Clarke, Carey Mulligan

Description: "The Great Gatsby" follows Fitzgerald-like, would-be writer Nick Carraway (Tobey Maguire) as he leaves the Midwest and comes to New York City in the spring of 1922, an era of loosening morals, glittering jazz and bootleg kings. Chasing his own American Dream, Nick lands next door to a mysterious, party-giving millionaire, Jay Gatsby (Leonardo DiCaprio) and across the bay from his cousin, Daisy (Carey Mulligan) and her philandering, blue-blooded husband, Tom Buchanan (Joel Edgerton). It is thus that Nick is drawn into the captivating world of the super rich, their illusions, loves and deceits. As Nick bears witness, within and without the world he inhabits, he pens a tale of impossible love, incorruptible dreams and high-octane tragedy, and holds a mirror to our own modern times and struggles.

There are no two ways about it: The Great Gatsby is misconceived and misjudged, a crude burlesque on what's probably American literature's most precious jewel.

The Great Gatsby is a cool movie, in both the positive and negative sense. You may certainly be impressed, but you may not be moved.

The best thing about Baz Luhrmann's much-anticipated/much-dreaded The Great Gatsby is that, for all its computer-generated whoosh and overbroad acting, it is unmistakably F. Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby. That is no small deal.

David Edelstein, New York Magazine

It is, as I suspected, a gargantuan hunk of over-art-directed kitsch, but it makes for a grandiose, colorful, pleasure-drenched night at the movies.

Dana Stevens, Slate

This dreadful film even derogates the artistry of Fitzgerald, who wrote The Great Gatsby while living on Long Island and in Europe.

Joe Morgenstern, Wall Street Journal

Luhrmann takes great care with the rhythms of individual scenes, yet the film as a whole plays like a long trudge through a familiar story.

Keith Phipps, NPR

As unlikely as it might seem, high-energy director Baz Luhrmann has in fact crafted a somnambulant motion picture.

James Berardinelli, ReelViews

Baz Luhrmann is exactly the wrong person to adapt such a delicately rendered story, and his 3D feature plays like a ghastly Roaring 20s blowout at a sorority house.

J. R. Jones, Chicago Reader

Luhrmann hasn't unlocked the secrets of a story that remains all but unfilmable, but his Gatsby is far more than a collection of superficial splashes and tics.

Chris Vognar, Dallas Morning News

Even while being admirably faithful to so much of the novel's language, Luhrmann and Pearce still can't quite maneuver Carraway's more cautionary contours about America.

Lisa Kennedy, Denver Post

Despite timely relevance, enduring truths and Luhrmann's earnest efforts to make The Great Gatsby jump off the screen, he -- and we -- finally can't help but fail to grasp it.

Ann Hornaday, Washington Post

Fitzgerald's sensibility is delicately nuanced, but there's steel in his melancholy. With Luhrmann, everything, not just the parties but the intimate scenes, turns into Mardi Gras.

Peter Rainer, Christian Science Monitor

Leonardo DiCaprio gives us the full Gatsby, assured yet insecure, and he's magnificent, but the movie ends up romanticizing what Fitzgerald spent the book de-romanticizing.

Ty Burr, Boston Globe

Maguire's otherworldly coolness suits the observer drawn into a story he might prefer only to watch. DiCaprio is persuasive as the little boy lost impersonating a tough guy, and Mulligan finds ways to express Daisy's magnetism and weakness.

Richard Corliss, TIME Magazine

The themes are spelled out with all the refinement of Cliffs Notes. The CGI gimmicks add nothing relevant (skip the 3-D ticket). And few of the actors seem at all comfortable amid the decadence.

Elizabeth Weitzman, New York Daily News

Although the incurably exuberant Baz Luhrmann had the glitter factories and sequin mines working overtime, his glitzed-up Gatsby is dishwater dull.

Colin Covert, Minneapolis Star Tribune

Here I am, disappointed with Luhrmann's film, in part because I refused to quell my own anticipation. But, also, because the latest interpretation of Gatsby seemed to distort the values fans of the story hold so dearly.

Mike Bertha, Philadelphia Inquirer

We're ... reminded of what this movie could have been, had not Luhrmann hit the autopilot switch and allowed Fitzgerald to do all the dramatic thinking for him.

Peter Howell, Toronto Star

There may be worse movies this summer than The Great Gatsby, but there won't be a more crushing disappointment.

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Frenzied and overwrought, Baz Luhrmann'sThe Great Gatsby is a glitz-filled folly.

Claudia Puig, USA Today

There have been other stabs at Fitzgerald's book ... But none can be deemed as audaciously miscalculated as this.

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer

And so we wait, wait for the parties to end, wait for sparks to fly, for tragedy to strike, for repercussions to ensue, for our persistently passive protagonist to simply shut up already.
