J. Edgar is the story of the former director o the FBI J. Edgar Hoover, this movie is a dram an excellent one at that, I found it very interesting. I know I say interesting a lot when judging movies but it is mostly because I legitimately do find these films interesting. Anyhoo, Leonardo De Caprio stars as the former director of the FBI and his performance as usual is awesome. What I found cool is the storyline which of course follows J. Edgar Hoover but it follows him through the underground tunnels of the actual man. Or at least the speculation that people have had about Mr. Hoover.
The general feel of the movie is dark and you find yourself enthralled in the story. The camera is an objective viewpoint but has a feel of a wiretap sorta angle. That is to say you are spying on J. Edgar rather than experiencing these things with him. That couple with interesting darkness which gives the film a tone of despair and slyness. Which actually helps the movies plot move forward and such.
Somethings I didn't like about this movie were the cut scenes it seemed choppy and a bit rushed. The story is constant flashback and so that is something I have found annoying but in this movie since it is required I found it actually not as annoying.
Finally I highly suggest this film I would say a timid buy because rewatchability is not as there as you would want but I would say definite rent.
