Killers of the Flower Moon
Name - Killers of the Flower Moon
Released - 2023
Director- Martin Scorsese
There have been a few goods shows and movies popping up on Apple TV and Killers of the Flower Moon is one of those. It stars Leonardo di Caprio who is one of my favorite actors and in this film, he is quite different to how we have seen him before.
He has played rogue characters in the past, but somehow, not quite a bad guy as in this film. It also has Robert De Niro who we are used to playing a scheming wise-guy, but here he is also abit more sinster than how we are used to him compared to some of his more recent roles.
I didn't know what to expect from this film and it wouldn't be something that I might normally watch. I have watched quite a few Scorsese films in the past, but not too much recently. However, seeing Leonardo piqued my interest.
It is quite a long movie and I feel the film is basically has 3 parts to it. The first part where Leo meets Molly, the second part where the deaths happen and the final part is the trail.
I didn't know much about this film or story until I watched it and I found myself pretty shocked at some of the criminality and seeing Leo in this role and his character which you would initially want to like being a Leo character, but it is someone you actaully really dislike and is pretty heartbreaking that someone could be like this.
The acting by Lily Gladstone (Molly) is probably the best performance in the film along with Leo. Together they really come together and unite the film.
My favorite scene in the film probably is when the texas ranger shows up and you feel some relief that there might be a happy ending to this tragic story. Jesse Plemons utters those infamous words that he is from the Federal Government that usually would not be welcomed, but he plays a great hero.
Brendan Fraser, although not long in the film was quite powerful for me in his short scenes and it is interesting to see how he has changed from his early roles in films as he has gotten older.
There were some interesting scenes with Robert De Niro too, such as when he is spanking Leo and seeing him on the stairs as he is brought before the courts, reminded me of a younger Rob as Al Capone.
Overall, I think the film is worth watching and certainly very tragic and left a mark on me.
Have you seen it?
Thanks for reading.

STOPWe saw this in the theater and it was very good. I think the worst part of it for me is to know that it was based on real events. That makes it even more heartbreaking. It was very moving and quite well done.
Yes,for me too to know that is pretty heartbreaking. I cant imagine people would be so cruel in the past.
i have not watched this o.o but i guess a lot of people would go to see cuz of leonardo. i think last movie i watched was aquaman or that chinese moviel ol forgot which
Yeah I only watched because of Leo!
this is what i mean :p
Hmmm
Leonardo is one of my favourite protagonists.
I hope this one's interesting because I can't give it a look nowadays because of my exams
Its a good one and I hope you will enjoy to watch it.
Yeah sure.
Let's wait for my exam to finish first. Haha
I watched the movie, it was increadible to discover this side of the history that not so many people know about.
Peace
Yes, it was something totally new for me too.
I have the possibility to watch this movie at home, however, despite the Martin Scorsese direction and Leonardo DiCaprio as the main protagonist (who are my favorites), I don't manage to find time to watch the movie at once.
Of Leonardo DiCaprio's films, the strongest impression on me was the cruel film The Revenant, for which Leonardo won the Oscar for best actor, (finally).
If you recommend Killers of the Flower Moon, I have to find 3.5 hours to watch it 😀
It is a long one and I wasn't sure I would enjoy it, but I am glad I did. The final hour is the best and brings some relief. I love the Revenant film, just this point in time seems to be amazing time to have been alive.
The name of the movie looks interesting! Knowing that it is based on true events, I'll give it a watch to learn more about history and human nature :)
It's a good one and very sad that it is based on true events. Leo is fantastic.
I think you are also very fond of movies like me. I am watching a movie right now. whose name is the Shershaah. I love watching movies but I probably don't know this character. The character you described in this post. But I would like to know it by seeing it
Yes I love movies. I can't wait to watch my next one. I will check out the one you are watching.
This is a Hindi movie. And in it a boy dreams of becoming a soldier and then he becomes a soldier.
Watching movies gives us many lessons. We should remember these lessons and learn from them
I don’t get his reasoning, he give that speach to dinero in the jail cell but still puts the drops in molly’s insulin, what do you think? am I missing some plot point
Yeah it was a bit strange the ending that she finally said something after the trial and not before. His relationship with Molly was the worst, really shocking.
DiCaprio is hit or miss for me. Sometimes I quite like him—other times I don't like his acting choices. Then again, he is always good in Scorsese films. Scorsese just knows how to bring out his best. The trailer for this looks pretty compelling. I'll add it to my list!
I think apart from Titanic, I like most of what he stars in. I think Scorsese has so many great movies behind him.
I gotta watch this movie, trying to find some time.. it's on watchlist, a lot of good reviews about it..
Martin Scorsese movies are always fun to watch.
Seeing Leonardo DiCaprio is what picked my interest.. gonna watch it next weekend!
Yeah there are lots of good shows in right now. I love most things with Leo in it.
