*+Lucas Gottfried Piano* Damn right, Lucas! This is the best movie of 2015, hands down!!! Even better than "Mad Max: Fury Road," in my honest opinion (which I would rank second to this crowning masterpiece)! Well done, Alejandro... 👍😎
I used to belive in those words Ive wait for years God never did the "revenge" so i did it my self And its done Revenge is in our each own hands Its our choice to do it or not If you keep waiting for god's justice Keep waiting and suffer Im not even sure if he's up there or even exist anymore
@@reynewdawn is god supposed to give you your revenge? Is a mind boggling being of tremendous power suppose to do as you ask because you desire so? Is the revenge you seek truly what is necessary? He got his revenge. But is a shell of a man with only the desire of the sweet release of death. Is that the outcome you long for? The reality you fight for? Is that the outcome you wish god to direct you towards? To come back to god a truly soulless man? You feel wronged. You don’t have faith in divine judgment. Yet would you rather consume yourself with individual revenge or rather transcend it?
This movie is a masterpiece. This theme is so moving through the whole movie it's just incredible. If Leo or Tom doesn't get an Oscar it'll be a sad day.
Sorry but I can't agree. The poctures are really great and music is moving...but that's all. It isn't really difficult to play person like Glass. The film is aggressive and there are moments when people are going to sleep. The film is good but not excellent. Music and Picturec could receive Oscars but not di Caprio again...
Michał Białoszewski di caprin done an amazing job and in a lot of peoples opinion and in interviews what di caprio did wasn't classed as "acting" it was way way beyond that! that its self should get all round oscars. The way di caprio acted out his role has no words to describe as acting. He was literally a stranded man in the wilderness and their happened to be cameras filming him haha. I get what your saying about how it made you fall asleep at times, as some scenes did drag out etc, but other than that I have no faults with this movie
tiberiius I thought the same thing. The silent sections of the song are almost like negative spaces in paintings. Gives you a feeling of loneliness and profound isolation. Then when the music comes back is like the many dangers he had to face. Comes as a surprise, out of no where.
This movie makes me wonder, within the past generations, how many men have gone through hell and came back? How many men have witnessed a loss of their loved ones, had all the odds against them, death had gotten as close to therm as it possibly can, yet they carried on, not because they wanted to but because they had to, they carried on because they discovered a purpose in their lives much larger than themselves. They had to carry on, so you and I could have the privilege to exist.
I thought that when he finally killed him, that he was ready to die at the moment. He was so exhausted and ready to die,like the only reason he was going on was to kill the man who had killed his son and left him for dead.
There's always a role in an actor's career where he's beyond acting. Well, I think that is it for Leo. He was beyond acting in this movie. It was heart-wrenching and soul-scarring.
+Mithrilneth Elvenstone Unfortunately for this soundtrack, the Academy Awards has horrible rules. Because it wasn't written by ONE person. How stupid is that? They have teams of people doing every single other little thing except direct.
+Arch Angel Seriously?! That is ridiculous. This soundtrack is so filled with emotion, personally I think it is much more deserving then that of The Hateful Eight. Thanks for the info, I wasn't previously aware of that rule.
Yes, I just found this out! They were up for more awards on other platforms (which they lost to Ennio). Funny because all of those years making soundtracks so long ago, and he never won until Quentiin decided to bring him out of retirement? I'm gonna go with this was more of a, "It's about time he won", or, "Oops, we had totally forgotten to give him one" award. LOL!
Just complete sadness. This was the most unusual, but amazing film I've ever seen. It doesn't follow film making in its traditional sense. Its a sub-conscious film definitely. This is the film where the answers are revealed through dreams. Absolutely a masterpiece. I thought Inception and Interstellar were the only films that delivered this amount of depth. Was I wrong.
TheBasicYankee thank you for this comment. I was never attracted to this movie, as the theme is not very interesting to me, however I also find Inception and Interstellar to be fantastic movies so definitely I will go watch this! Many thanks!!
(No offense, but if you think Inception, Interstellar and El Revenante are the deepest movies ever, then please, for the love of god, watch more movies.)
this movie was awesome. i dont care what anyone else says i think it was the most breathtaking cinematographic realistic presentation of a movie i've ever seen.
It indeed was a slow movie. Boring? Not for me. When there's a feast of amazing scenery and impeccable cinematography in front of me, I'm anything but bored.
Sharath SH true. there are other movies that have amazing cinematography that are much easier to watch though. Is alejandro innaritu changing cinema? definitely. is he an amazing director? absolutely
To play his role like he did is extraordinary. A lot of people seemed to find it drag out a bit but honestly I was captivated and couldn't keep my eyes off the screen the whole movie. This movie is about the victory of the human spirit throughout time. It captures everything in a beautiful way. I have never been so captivated or moved by a movie than this one. Probably top 5 i've ever seen. if not the best.
+Roy Claessen Wholeheartedly agree! The way it was filmed, the score, and Leo blow any film in the last decade away! We need more such as this to wash away the crap they've been pumping out of Hollywood these days...
+Eva Green yeah I don't really understand why people keep saying it's a long and boring film. I loved it from start to finish. I personally adore films that make you think deep and can change your view on the world. The Revenant should be seen by all (age appropriate obviously.) as it really does express how far a man can persevere through hate and passion whilst the world turns him away.
people say this music took no talent...read this...this music does take talent...he made this so simple because the notes he used and the way he used them make this convey the conditions they were in...it expresses a hundred different emotions in such simplicity...it doesn't take a full orchestra to make beautiful music...and it doesn't take fancy playing...the composer of this piece made the perfect piece to fit the theme of this movie and he is very talented...because of you watch this movie and you hear this music it takes you into that world...if it doesn't you just don't appreciate the music or the movie...the movie and the composing are masterpieces as far as i'm concerned and the fact leonardo hardly even had to say a word during the movie...it doesn't matter...they brought you into that world and if you enjoy very raw and true to life looking movies...this is for you...this is number one on my all time best movies until something tops it...because nothing to date has...i've never been immersed into another world like this movie did to me...that's my opinion and you have yours.
Gravity and Birdman are both better for me, but they're all still 11/10. All 3 are just pure forces of cinema that use all the tools at their own disposal to explore such a broad range of ideas in such an aesthetically pleasing way. People complain about the lack of dialogue in this way too much. It's all communicated with visual complexity and the lac of words make it so much more accessible for a wide audience.
Breaking Banter people complain about the dialogue because their brains are so lazy from the normal crap movies they watch that making sense out of this movie takes too much brain power.
I loved that line. Isn't it ironic, that Glass ends up giving up Fitzgerald to the Indians to fulfill that revenge.....considering everything that they have lost.
+Sakarraterrum Smh, ignore the idiots that have replied so far, I full agree with you. The film doesn't have the same effect on cynical and close-minded people. Those who appreciate this film- are the kind of people who can immerse themselves in the powerful and atmospheric world Revenant creates.
During the winter depression time, and when i do have the time, i'm hiking deep into the forest while listening to this amazing Piece of art. I'm wandering trough the deep and heavy snow, the only thing i'm hearing is my own breath and the music in my ears. You can feel the wind gently passing trough, when you look up and see the trees swinging left to right with the power of the wind, that's when you feel very, very small in this universe Have a nice day everyone.
You know, I hate to say it. But sometimes I wish I could go back to that time era and just live like that for a couple days or so, meet the indians and live so liberated. I just love the aspect about how everything is so untouched and you are a part of the great northern wilderness. I go up to the UP a lot in Michigan to go snowmobiling around the Brimley area and we stay and the indian reservation casino, and everytime I go I just think about 100 years or so ago how they ruled this land up in the great wilderness. I now live in Houghton Michigan, because I am currently going to school at Michigan Tech, and besides the school part I just love every aspect of the country up here. I especially love it in the winter, there is nothing that beats the dead silence other then the wind blowing in the trees when you go out in the middle of the woods during the winter and just look at how everything is so untouched and unbothered. I don't know why but if I could go back for just a little, I would.
People are raving on and on about Deadpool being the movie of the year so much that The Revenant has practically been left in the dark. This movie was a masterpiece beyond words I can fathom. I have never felt so much for a character in a film as much as I felt for Glass. A man who has had everything taken from him. Did he complain? Did he give up? Did he ask for a break? No, because in this era, this dark age like time for humanity life was something you struggled for on a daily basis. Had I not seen this film with a friend I would have balled my eyes out in certain scenes. This Film did an amazing job of fully submersing me in a time frame I knew little about. I didn't know what to expect from this film because no one talked about it, no one I knew had seen it. This film had a shadow cast over it by a film with cheesy acting, lousy jokes, and unnecessary gore. The Revenant was real. It made me feel sad, remorse, pain, awe, joy, disgust at times. Iv'e never had a film do what this one did to me. If this movie does not receive copious amounts of awards and Leonardo does not receive and Oscar for this performance I will be highly disappointed. If you are thinking about seeing this movie, don't. Go see it, you won't regret it if you have half of a functioning mind.
Though i loved Deadpool The Revenant is better overall it's hard to compare since The Revenant takes it's self very seriously while Deadpool does the exact opposite.
What an unbelievably powerful movie and an equally powerful soundtrack. It has been almost a week since I went to see it and I can't stop thinking about it. without being melodramatic, I too feel like something has changed in me. I also feel sad knowing that it will be a long time before a production of this calibre comes along. It almost spoils whatever else there is to see and makes me hyper-critical of other movies. Bravo Alejandro, Leo & Tom!!
Playing this theme right now as I sit on my porch smoking a cigar and just let my mind think about life and so many other things. This was such an incredible film I see why Leo finally won an Oscar for this film. It's so deep on so many levels and I think it shows all of us how much pure will power and the need to survive can take you. This film and inception are both really deep films about loss, survival, memories, dreams, and learning more about the things around us and that's what I love about them.
I just watched this movie in theatres yesterday and it made me think just how far we've come. We often in our lives today take hundreds, if not thousands of things for granted. But this movie put so many aspects of the brutality in perspective, and in such a naked way. How we've gone through these times of sheer survival, and managed not to kill all of our brothers and sisters (metaphorically speaking) along the way. Much of the shots used real sunlight/lack there of (unheard of to this degree in Hollywood today). The actors and crew embraced not only being cold and enduring brutal winds, but were simultaneously wet as well. Dedication that certainly doesnt go unrecognized. My girlfriend did not enjoy the movie so much as there was violent animal death and brutal savagery. But this movie didn't shy away from who we were and the reality of what living during this time must have been like. The simplicity of the deep and dark soundtrack only added emotion exponentially to what we were all feeling while watching. Simply amazing movie on all fronts.
+James Lemon if you think this movie is amazing for brutal then you havent seen a lot of movies but i do respect the film for being brutal and ballsy when it has a budget of 135 mil.
lordDEMAXUS - No it was brutal it wasn't just humans trying to kill other humans, it was trying to survive nature as well. The way they filmed it made it seem like we were in the same scene with Leo and Tom, It made me feel like I was in some kind of danger as well like for example in the first scenes it shows a guy just randomly shot in the neck with in arrow. Then the camera would turn in the direction the arrow was shot as any person would do so if they were under attack. Anywho I've seen enough films to know that this is brutal.
moonrockers1962 do you mean tension or brutal? there loads of films that are way more brutal. i get what you mean but that is because of the DOP. i had the same feel when watching children of men which coincidentally was by the same DOP. i could feel the tension every second. i was able to feel the same way in the first battle scene of this movie too but that was it. i dont think the surviving bits were so brutal psychologically either.
What I love about this theme is that the music is made chunk by chunk. It stops suddenly, it doesn't fade away smoothly, it stops brutally and makes it resonate in your head, which adds to the tragic feel.
A very...unusual and special film but also easily one of the best films ever produced probably. This film seems very simple on the surface, but in fact it is very deep and just beautiful. There are so much Details and special moments. For me it is not only a film about Revenge...it is a film about Life, loneliness, hope and finally finding peace with yourself. A masterpiece!
The musical score for The Revenant was composed by Japanese musician Ryuichi Sakamoto . The main body of the score was recorded at the Seattlemusic Scoring Stage in the Bastyr Chapel in greater Seattle, Washington by musicians of the Northwest Sinfonia. Sakamoto conducted these sessions.
This movie really changed me in a way that I can't even explain... To go through that much for one that you love more than life itself. Truly the best movie in years.
The movie is underrated. It was never supposed to be a fuckin happy learn yer lesson movie. It was a great experience. I would love to see Alejandro Inarritu do some more historical stuff.
I cried, this story broke my heart. "The revenant" is about a man, who lost his son, his reason why. This movie shows how revenge can keep you alive, even though you're weak, injured and broken. If you didn't watch it, go ahead. This movie is heartbreaking. When it ends, you feel empty, tired, you've been Glass for 2 hours and a half.
This is so beautiful. It's so simple yet pulls this whole movie together with these simple chords and mixes. Listening to it with headphones is literally breathtaking. Especially when it gets higher I always think of when he lost his son it makes me just wanna cry. Honestly such an amazing song so underrated.
This film ... just... elucidated a perspective of earth, its history, and the hardship earth her self has faced because of us humans. It was the impeccable example of human compassion, the ambition that one can have, and the utmost trusting love in a fathers heart. It exemplified the courage and stone cold passion to live and to capture revenge on one that took his life away. For me, this track matched it very well. So well, that I receive chills.
a complete masterpiece...the acting,dialogue,setting, cinematography, all shot under natural light , the detail of the wardrobe,make up etc.And then the soundtrack ....perfect to feel the emotions of the film...almost felt I was there when I first watched it.Great piece of work on all fronts.
while I'm watchin i was checking on my body all time like if I'm injured or somethin.. this music get me literally into the filming.. What a masterpiece 👑 I'm crying *goosebumps* *heart beating *
+stitcha123 its not "gay" to be moved by a beautiful piece of music, feeling emotionally affected by music is what separates people like you from the people who understand music for its true and powerful connection to the human soul.
This music elevates the film to the level of masterpiece. The scene when he's walking on the frozen lake, and the church dream sequence, is brought to new emotional heights because of this score.
Have yet to watch the film, but still found this piece of music. (no need to tell me to watch it, i will, i promise!) The first stroke of that phat low note strikes your attention so hard, it's as mesmerizing as it was on the first time. To me, this blatant melancholy gives me an impression of a bleak, mountainous wilderness. Something that has been there for eternity, to which your lifespan is less than a blink of an eye. And there you are, on the edge of it, on the top of it, looking around, feeling the endless wind on your face, possibly shivering through thick clothes, not from cold, but from the "power" the scenery holds. To it, you are as irrelevant as the stone you may well be standing on. It reminds me how meaningless a human is, or a humanity is, to this planet. The planet will be here long after our impending end. We will leave or cease to be, or we will begin anew. It's still tiny compared to what this world is. ...is what I get from the music, is all :DD
This is ART, what's really amazing in such movies is that they take to different times, problems, stories and let see and live the details, the sound track is a masterpiece which completed this masterpiece.
" ... When there is a storm and you stand in front of a tree, if you look at its branches, you swear it will fall. But if you watch the trunk, you will see its stability". - Hugh Glass.
Do you hear that crackly deep-down sound of embers (or possibly melting ice) that resounds midway through this piece? (best heard with headphones on). Its unexpected yet welcome emergence, after the long, lonesome echoes of a cold vastness, had a visceral effect on me and I was vaguely conscious of a feeling of a campfire warming an ancient protagonist. As if we're hearing the warm serenity that swaddled Prometheus in his pre-punished state, reclining near the fire he'd so recently stolen. Or perhaps it is the sound of layers of suburban life-convenience-swaddling linens burning and peeling away from our default attitudes, as this film draws us into the slow burn of an epic survival scenario?
For me it was what followed... the violin... that instrument always does something to my viscera.. I shook my head in disbelief. The absolute wonder of it. Then I realized that's how I felt throughout his composition. Ineffable :-)
+yogesh tak The solo violin (or viola?) is just so much more human and inviting than the string section playing together. One can easily think of a single person, with a single face and expression, playing that instrument for us, like an act of kindness or friendship.
+David Floren True! And I referred to the point where you mentioned that feeling of sitting in front a bonfire with a kind of sound that's like burning leaves... the violin sound that follows.. And yes, when played like that, it really connects with you, more than say, a quarter
What a class dear Glass..!! I am absolutely floored by the music of this film..Music itself conveys us the whole story of the movie...its traverse into lot of emotion just like those men felt it during their journey. Fear,sadness, love, lust, greed, dreams and hope.. what not the violin can express in its own way....and this movie is really mesmerizing...what a script...
The music chimes in like little breaths, giving you the feeling that its over until it breaths again and again, just like Glass has to keep going even though he loses everything, its one of the most human things you can do.
immediately after watching the film at the cinema,I found the theme music,played skyrim and just wandered around the pale,through mountains and snowstorms,so so immersive
This movie and this music always sobers me up to life. Sometimes you can get lost in all the pretend happiness but, this movie and this soundtrack reminds me of how unforgiving and hard life is. All you can do is tough it through like hugh did, unbeknownst the unpredictable turns of events. However heart breaking they may be.
The first 30 seconds gives me chills. It evokes pain and also beauty...almost as if it was you who is crossing miles of snow with nothing but heartache. Such a great film.
One of the best man vs nature films of all time!Leonardo Di Caprio nails each and every scene as 'Hugh Glass' inspite of having limited dialogues!Tom Hardy nails it as the menacing and ruthless antagonist 'Fitzgerald'!Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu proves his merit once again after 'Birdman'!Emmanuel Lubezki's cinematography perfectly captures the Isolation and the stark beauty of the world!The soundtrack by Ryuichi Sakamoto perfectly complements the haunting, unforgettable and brutal experience of this masterpiece! A must watch for people who love true cinema🍻👍
This movie hit me!! I guess we all feel completely lonely in our lives sometime!!! Whether it´s due to my own mistakes or not, this is how I feel now, and this movie touched me... Now, being strong is my only option, if I want to survive...
This is not just a movie, this is an experience!

What performance!!

This movie was shot in all natural light. Explains why it's so damn gorgeous.
It is all real. No green screen effects. Real snow. Real winter. Real suffer.

people say this music took no talent...read this...this music does take talent...he made this so simple because the notes he used and the way he used them make this convey the conditions they were in...it expresses a hundred different emotions in such simplicity...it doesn't take a full orchestra to make beautiful music...and it doesn't take fancy playing...the composer of this piece made the perfect piece to fit the theme of this movie and he is very talented...because of you watch this movie and you hear this music it takes you into that world...if it doesn't you just don't appreciate the music or the movie...the movie and the composing are masterpieces as far as i'm concerned and the fact leonardo hardly even had to say a word during the movie...it doesn't matter...they brought you into that world and if you enjoy very raw and true to life looking movies...this is for you...this is number one on my all time best movies until something tops it...because nothing to date has...i've never been immersed into another world like this movie did to me...that's my opinion and you have yours.
Amen brother.
Exactly man .

Gravity and Birdman are both better for me, but they're all still 11/10. All 3 are just pure forces of cinema that use all the tools at their own disposal to explore such a broad range of ideas in such an aesthetically pleasing way.
People complain about the lack of dialogue in this way too much. It's all communicated with visual complexity and the lac of words make it so much more accessible for a wide audience.
Breaking Banter people complain about the dialogue because their brains are so lazy from the normal crap movies they watch that making sense out of this movie takes too much brain power.
"Revenge is in the hands of the creator"
I loved that line. Isn't it ironic, that Glass ends up giving up Fitzgerald to the Indians to fulfill that revenge.....considering everything that they have lost.
Asif Chowdhury I think a lot of it is about coming to terms with the grief.
the lord can have it back when me done with it - Bushmaster
Loved that quote! And it's so true! Revenge is in God's hands not ours.
This movie was a brutal masterpiece!
I have just warched this film and I feel like something inside me has changed. I dont know why, but I just feel diferent
If you don't know what got changed and why it's just for a few days...Film is moving so it isn't difficult to feel like you
***** My gods are Odin, Thor, Frey, Freya, Tyr....
Michał Białoszewski Is really good film, I really loved it
+Daniel Brooks what is a troll?
+Sakarraterrum Smh, ignore the idiots that have replied so far, I full agree with you. The film doesn't have the same effect on cynical and close-minded people. Those who appreciate this film- are the kind of people who can immerse themselves in the powerful and atmospheric world Revenant creates.
During the winter depression time, and when i do have the time, i'm hiking deep into the forest while listening to this amazing Piece of art. I'm wandering trough the deep and heavy snow, the only thing i'm hearing is my own breath and the music in my ears. You can feel the wind gently passing trough, when you look up and see the trees swinging left to right with the power of the wind, that's when you feel very, very small in this universe
Have a nice day everyone.
This movie is so great because at one point, it made me feel hopeless as well.
You know, I hate to say it. But sometimes I wish I could go back to that time era and just live like that for a couple days or so, meet the indians and live so liberated. I just love the aspect about how everything is so untouched and you are a part of the great northern wilderness. I go up to the UP a lot in Michigan to go snowmobiling around the Brimley area and we stay and the indian reservation casino, and everytime I go I just think about 100 years or so ago how they ruled this land up in the great wilderness. I now live in Houghton Michigan, because I am currently going to school at Michigan Tech, and besides the school part I just love every aspect of the country up here. I especially love it in the winter, there is nothing that beats the dead silence other then the wind blowing in the trees when you go out in the middle of the woods during the winter and just look at how everything is so untouched and unbothered. I don't know why but if I could go back for just a little, I would.
Agree 100% you'd be able to actually live back then
+Clay Piccerillo You'd be able to live to the ripe, old age of 40! What a great time to be alive!
I'd prefer that
I recommend you watch "Into the wild" first ;)
brother those injuns would scalp your ass standing without compunction
I'm in love with the way this movie gives you time to think.
"I ain't afraid to die no more...I done it already" -Hugh Glass
I love this music. When he's watching the asteroid going through the atmosphere....very strange moment.
corregt, one of the most symbolic item in the movie
what does it mean
Nitric oxyde yeah what did it symbolize
I have no idea, that's the beauty. Like a Soul burning in the sky, A lonely thing,going thrue times
he was watching the Jungersol Fall i guess
How could anyone hate this film?
Probably people with a microscopic attention span. Glad to say I'm not one of them
Yeah same I’m glad I’m not one of the retards
Sounds so heavy.
So is his journey
People are raving on and on about Deadpool being the movie of the year so much that The Revenant has practically been left in the dark. This movie was a masterpiece beyond words I can fathom. I have never felt so much for a character in a film as much as I felt for Glass. A man who has had everything taken from him. Did he complain? Did he give up? Did he ask for a break? No, because in this era, this dark age like time for humanity life was something you struggled for on a daily basis. Had I not seen this film with a friend I would have balled my eyes out in certain scenes. This Film did an amazing job of fully submersing me in a time frame I knew little about. I didn't know what to expect from this film because no one talked about it, no one I knew had seen it. This film had a shadow cast over it by a film with cheesy acting, lousy jokes, and unnecessary gore. The Revenant was real. It made me feel sad, remorse, pain, awe, joy, disgust at times. Iv'e never had a film do what this one did to me. If this movie does not receive copious amounts of awards and Leonardo does not receive and Oscar for this performance I will be highly disappointed. If you are thinking about seeing this movie, don't. Go see it, you won't regret it if you have half of a functioning mind.
+Decemptum Just found out Leo did in fact get an oscar. It's about damn time!
Though i loved Deadpool The Revenant is better overall it's hard to compare since The Revenant takes it's self very seriously while Deadpool does the exact opposite.
+Decemptum To be fair, The Revenant is considered a 2015 movie.
+Decemptum Revenant is technically considered a 2015 film and Deadpool is a 2016 one
+Decemptum who the fuck said deadpool will be the best movie of the year?
This, and Interstellar are the best soundtracks ever
indeed :)
XPENGUINWAFFLEX FUCK YEAH..
And Arrival.
XPENGUINWAFFLEX exactly
I'm betting my money on Arrival for best film soundtrack as well for the next Oscars.
Makes your spine shiver.
Best way to describe it!
This music makes me love the movie even more. And Alejandro G. Iñárritu and Leonardo deserve the Oscars, for this piece of Artwork.
lobaine nice
thank you for this wonderful comment
YANITLA
Gives me goosebumps overtime
Everytime*
+Arcode42 Well it can give you goosebumps overtime too ;)
Yeah I know, a tied game is exciting. Who doesn't love a game winning shot?
What an unbelievably powerful movie and an equally powerful soundtrack. It has been almost a week since I went to see it and I can't stop thinking about it. without being melodramatic, I too feel like something has changed in me. I also feel sad knowing that it will be a long time before a production of this calibre comes along. It almost spoils whatever else there is to see and makes me hyper-critical of other movies. Bravo Alejandro, Leo & Tom!!
Playing this theme right now as I sit on my porch smoking a cigar and just let my mind think about life and so many other things. This was such an incredible film I see why Leo finally won an Oscar for this film. It's so deep on so many levels and I think it shows all of us how much pure will power and the need to survive can take you. This film and inception are both really deep films about loss, survival, memories, dreams, and learning more about the things around us and that's what I love about them.
i can feel pain, revenge, survival, peace and harmony in this masterpiece
I just watched this movie in theatres yesterday and it made me think just how far we've come. We often in our lives today take hundreds, if not thousands of things for granted. But this movie put so many aspects of the brutality in perspective, and in such a naked way. How we've gone through these times of sheer survival, and managed not to kill all of our brothers and sisters (metaphorically speaking) along the way.
Much of the shots used real sunlight/lack there of (unheard of to this degree in Hollywood today). The actors and crew embraced not only being cold and enduring brutal winds, but were simultaneously wet as well. Dedication that certainly doesnt go unrecognized.
My girlfriend did not enjoy the movie so much as there was violent animal death and brutal savagery. But this movie didn't shy away from who we were and the reality of what living during this time must have been like. The simplicity of the deep and dark soundtrack only added emotion exponentially to what we were all feeling while watching. Simply amazing movie on all fronts.
+James Lemon The film was shot entirely with natural lighting.
+James Lemon sik
+James Lemon if you think this movie is amazing for brutal then you havent seen a lot of movies but i do respect the film for being brutal and ballsy when it has a budget of 135 mil.
lordDEMAXUS - No it was brutal it wasn't just humans trying to kill other humans, it was trying to survive nature as well. The way they filmed it made it seem like we were in the same scene with Leo and Tom, It made me feel like I was in some kind of danger as well like for example in the first scenes it shows a guy just randomly shot in the neck with in arrow. Then the camera would turn in the direction the arrow was shot as any person would do so if they were under attack. Anywho I've seen enough films to know that this is brutal.
moonrockers1962 do you mean tension or brutal? there loads of films that are way more brutal. i get what you mean but that is because of the DOP. i had the same feel when watching children of men which coincidentally was by the same DOP. i could feel the tension every second. i was able to feel the same way in the first battle scene of this movie too but that was it. i dont think the surviving bits were so brutal psychologically either.
This movie moved me
BEST MOVIE ! Why ? Because this is a fuckin' masterpiece with a POWERFUL MESSAGE ! A message of life
What I love about this theme is that the music is made chunk by chunk. It stops suddenly, it doesn't fade away smoothly, it stops brutally and makes it resonate in your head, which adds to the tragic feel.
A very...unusual and special film but also easily one of the best films ever produced probably.
This film seems very simple on the surface, but in fact it is very deep and just beautiful. There are so much Details and special moments.
For me it is not only a film about Revenge...it is a film about Life, loneliness, hope and finally finding peace with yourself.
A masterpiece!
best movie i saw past 5-7 years
"My heart bleeds... But revenge is in the creator's hands"
this has got to be the most loneliest, coldest, yet beautiful pieces ever produced. It reaches into your soul, it sets the movie for sure. wow
Played the long dark with this music in the background - was fitting perfectly
haha i play Day-Z standalone to this...
Ultimate_Persia great idead m8
The musical score for The Revenant was composed by Japanese musician Ryuichi Sakamoto . The main body of the score was recorded at the Seattlemusic Scoring Stage in the Bastyr Chapel in greater Seattle, Washington by musicians of the Northwest Sinfonia. Sakamoto conducted these sessions.
I love the background sound, adds a little creepyness and deep to the tragic of the music...
This movie really changed me in a way that I can't even explain... To go through that much for one that you love more than life itself. Truly the best movie in years.
Pretty much what Jesus did for us.
+TruthAboutTattoos lmfao you saying that with your profile pic just killed me
+TruthAboutTattoos and I'm a very Christian person.
Astrosive Cool
The movie is underrated. It was never supposed to be a fuckin happy learn yer lesson movie. It was a great experience. I would love to see Alejandro Inarritu do some more historical stuff.
+itsmcflyy oh my fucking gosh dude why did you tell me that now I can't stop coming up with ideas lol
is it really under rated though?? It was pretty highly rated and acclaimed
+roger robie Pretty freaking much. LOL! I was thinking, what the hell is this Adrian guy talking about. Haha!
Adrian Langford you are right
Alec McGrath lol it didn't get enough credit in my opinion
The power of music is just amazing
Tears. Just tears.
same, with a goosebumps
I cried, this story broke my heart. "The revenant" is about a man, who lost his son, his reason why. This movie shows how revenge can keep you alive, even though you're weak, injured and broken. If you didn't watch it, go ahead. This movie is heartbreaking. When it ends, you feel empty, tired, you've been Glass for 2 hours and a half.
wow well said...you really said everything, dont need to add more
cavalli14 thank you so much! 😱👍
delena am empty now 😞
Everyone that enjoys this type of music i can relate too!
This is so beautiful. It's so simple yet pulls this whole movie together with these simple chords and mixes. Listening to it with headphones is literally breathtaking. Especially when it gets higher I always think of when he lost his son it makes me just wanna cry. Honestly such an amazing song so underrated.
This film ... just... elucidated a perspective of earth, its history, and the hardship earth her self has faced because of us humans. It was the impeccable example of human compassion, the ambition that one can have, and the utmost trusting love in a fathers heart. It exemplified the courage and stone cold passion to live and to capture revenge on one that took his life away. For me, this track matched it very well. So well, that I receive chills.
+Tristan Johnson Well said, thanks.
I think this movie is very underrated. Truly a masterpiece!
This movie is so deep. It kinda makes you feel the beauty of sadness and lonelyness.
Goosebumps at 4:11. Absolutely unbelievable how amazing this score is. It’s beautiful. So perfect for the movie.
this film was amazing and so was the music
a complete masterpiece...the acting,dialogue,setting, cinematography, all shot under natural light , the detail of the wardrobe,make up etc.And then the soundtrack ....perfect to feel the emotions of the film...almost felt I was there when I first watched it.Great piece of work on all fronts.
while I'm watchin i was checking on my body all time like if I'm injured or somethin.. this music get me literally into the filming.. What a masterpiece 👑 I'm crying *goosebumps* *heart beating *
film*
+Ahellla Khattab hahahahhahhahahaha. gaaaaaaay!
+stitcha123 ? So just because he liked the movie, he's gay? I don't know if you trolling or not
+stitcha123 its not "gay" to be moved by a beautiful piece of music, feeling emotionally affected by music is what separates people like you from the people who understand music for its true and powerful connection to the human soul.
+Harrison King man thanks :) you are such an civilized human... I respect that u really understand what music is :)))
This music elevates the film to the level of masterpiece. The scene when he's walking on the frozen lake, and the church dream sequence, is brought to new emotional heights because of this score.
Pure pain.................nothing more......the endurance to achieve justice.
That slide down the snowy hill where he loses his rifle.. those wounds were barely closed or healed.
Ouch
This movie was utterly breathtaking
Have yet to watch the film, but still found this piece of music. (no need to tell me to watch it, i will, i promise!)
The first stroke of that phat low note strikes your attention so hard, it's as mesmerizing as it was on the first time. To me, this blatant melancholy gives me an impression of a bleak, mountainous wilderness. Something that has been there for eternity, to which your lifespan is less than a blink of an eye. And there you are, on the edge of it, on the top of it, looking around, feeling the endless wind on your face, possibly shivering through thick clothes, not from cold, but from the "power" the scenery holds. To it, you are as irrelevant as the stone you may well be standing on.
It reminds me how meaningless a human is, or a humanity is, to this planet. The planet will be here long after our impending end. We will leave or cease to be, or we will begin anew. It's still tiny compared to what this world is.
...is what I get from the music, is all :DD
This is ART, what's really amazing in such movies is that they take to different times, problems, stories and let see and live the details, the sound track is a masterpiece which completed this masterpiece.
" ... When there is a storm and you stand in front of a tree, if you look at its branches, you swear it will fall. But if you watch the trunk, you will see its stability". - Hugh Glass.
This wasn't just a movie. This was a cinematic achievement.
can you imagine being Alone in such a vast, cold wilderness, Hurt, starving.
Best movie ever made . It's so beautiful . Nothing could be so beautifully made till now .. I was so blown away. .. 10/10
This movie was hauntingly brutal as it was beautiful. It was quite an unique experience to witness.
Tom hardy and Leo DiCaprio THANK YOU SO MUCH♥️
Do you hear that crackly deep-down sound of embers (or possibly melting ice) that resounds midway through this piece? (best heard with headphones on).
Its unexpected yet welcome emergence, after the long, lonesome echoes of a cold vastness, had a visceral effect on me and I was vaguely conscious of a feeling of a campfire warming an ancient protagonist.
As if we're hearing the warm serenity that swaddled Prometheus in his pre-punished state, reclining near the fire he'd so recently stolen.
Or perhaps it is the sound of layers of suburban life-convenience-swaddling linens burning and peeling away from our default attitudes, as this film draws us into the slow burn of an epic survival scenario?
Gret use of words sir! I love writing and can appreciate a well beautifully strung paragraph!
For me it was what followed... the violin... that instrument always does something to my viscera.. I shook my head in disbelief. The absolute wonder of it. Then I realized that's how I felt throughout his composition. Ineffable :-)
+Danny Irland likewise :-)
+yogesh tak The solo violin (or viola?) is just so much more human and inviting than the string section playing together. One can easily think of a single person, with a single face and expression, playing that instrument for us, like an act of kindness or friendship.
+David Floren True! And I referred to the point where you mentioned that feeling of sitting in front a bonfire with a kind of sound that's like burning leaves... the violin sound that follows..
And yes, when played like that, it really connects with you, more than say, a quarter
my core is moving with these sounds
Amazing soundtrack, simply amazing !!!!!!!.
What a class dear Glass..!! I am absolutely floored by the music of this film..Music itself conveys us the whole story of the movie...its traverse into lot of emotion just like those men felt it during their journey. Fear,sadness, love, lust, greed, dreams and hope.. what not the violin can express in its own way....and this movie is really mesmerizing...what a script...
Anyone else love the faint side effects you hear through out the theme? You can practically feel the cold, the isolation...
The music chimes in like little breaths, giving you the feeling that its over until it breaths again and again, just like Glass has to keep going even though he loses everything, its one of the most human things you can do.
Played Skyrim recently with this as the background music :)
That must've felt brilliant
I'd love that!!!
Bro, fallout four
immediately after watching the film at the cinema,I found the theme music,played skyrim and just wandered around the pale,through mountains and snowstorms,so so immersive
Dark Souls 3
This movie and this music always sobers me up to life. Sometimes you can get lost in all the pretend happiness but, this movie and this soundtrack reminds me of how unforgiving and hard life is. All you can do is tough it through like hugh did, unbeknownst the unpredictable turns of events. However heart breaking they may be.
fitzgerald killed my son
If you look at its branches, you swear it will fall

no dude, its Fitzgerald killed my boy*
My son killed my boy, Fitzgerald
The first 30 seconds gives me chills. It evokes pain and also beauty...almost as if it was you who is crossing miles of snow with nothing but heartache. Such a great film.
this is the soul song 😔❤️
ryuichi sakamoto, masterpiece..
4:11 - gives me the chills
Lol hab dich so weit unten in den Kommentaren gefunden :D
yes absolutely the same
Yep, also 2:33
Most beautiful part of this soundtrack indeed
Somber and beautiful. Thank you for uploading this, Jamayr, and thank you to Sakamoto et al. for composing this powerful score.
I read that Inarritu says that, in general, the music is / may be more important to him than film. But the film is the best I've seen in my long years
This soundtrack makes me cry for absolutely no reason
my favourite movie at the moment.
great story , fantastically directed and maybe the best role for Di Caprio in his carieer...
this one and shutter island
One of the best man vs nature films of all time!Leonardo Di Caprio nails each and every scene as 'Hugh Glass' inspite of having limited dialogues!Tom Hardy nails it as the menacing and ruthless antagonist 'Fitzgerald'!Alejandro Gonzalez Innaritu proves his merit once again after 'Birdman'!Emmanuel Lubezki's cinematography perfectly captures the Isolation and the stark beauty of the world!The soundtrack by Ryuichi Sakamoto perfectly complements the haunting, unforgettable and brutal experience of this masterpiece! A must watch for people who love true cinema🍻👍
The pathos in this.
This piece is absolute genius, perfectly gives you the feeling you get when you are lost in a unknown place..
Perfect theme for walking to work in the snow, at 3:56am.
Joey Rozic LMAO
I feel you on that drainage
No me canso de escucharla! Cada noche la escucho... Es una obra de arte pero para el oído! Es una majestuosidad!
"My heart bleeds, but revenge is in the creators hands"
This film cinematography direction, editing,music all natural. it's call master piece
great score!beautifully painful...
This movie hit me!! I guess we all feel completely lonely in our lives sometime!!! Whether it´s due to my own mistakes or not, this is how I feel now, and this movie touched me...
Now, being strong is my only option, if I want to survive...
