Topic: The Beach(Leonardo DiCaprio) Forum: JoBlo
I liked it. Cinematography and the soundtrack were wonderful and it had mainly good acting. The problem was that the script started to fall apart at the end of 2nd act. The film didn't seem to know anymore where it was going and had some misguided solutions. For example the video game sequence was cute and clever in it's own right, but it didn't fit with rest of the film. The whole aspect of Leo going crazy didn't work. It was not established well enough and the transformation was too fast. Leo did a good job, but the script and the director didn't serve him well. Still, I would give it 6/10. Maybe even 7/10. It's definitely underrated.
