nightcrawler
Movies I've Seen in 2014 - Nightcrawler
Starring: Jake Gyllenhaal
Supporting: Bill Paxton, Rene Russo, Riz Ahmed
Directed by: Dan Gilroy
Plot: Desperate for work, Lou Bloom stumbles upon the art of "nightcrawling" otherwise known as filming for late-night L.A. crime. Aided by a news veteran, he soon finds success, but with it comes a deep spiral into madness, blurring the lines between work and ethics.
REVIEW
Gyllenhaal has been on fire with his movie roles lately. Choosing instead to play meatier, darker characters rather than star in the latest blockbuster (sorry, Prince of Persia) Gyllenhaal has clearly found his place when immersing himself in the creepiest and/or most complex character that he can find. He proves his chops in Nightcrawler, a well-written and directed film about sociopath, Lou Bloom, and his escapades in L.A. crime. While there happen to be some plot holes, and there could be more character development and back story, it's clear that this is Gyllenhaal's rodeo. While it may not be an award season contender, it's safe to say that Gyllenhaal has made his mark as a talented actor that's only just begun to find his footing.

Halloween has always been my favourite time of the year, simply because I love the atmosphere.
