"The Deer Hunter" is unsettling by design, with confusing editing and long, controversial scenes reflecting the characters' struggles. It explores themes of decisions, consequences, and life's value. Performances are intensely authentic, though one review expressed dislike for DeNiro.
Hate DeNiro.
A movie that bothers, because it has to be that way. Right from the start, with its confusing editing, long, controversial scenes, the movie tries to be uncomfortable in some way, and this is a reflection of what all the characters are going through. This is a movie about people, decisions and consequences, it's not easy at any point, it doesn't pretend to be. The performances are extremely visceral, to the point where some scenes are played for real, an extreme dedication showing authenticity in everything. There are reflections on purpose, what is worthwhile, what really matters and the value given to life. A great, disturbing and timeless movie.
