Of the 3 adaptations of The Great Gatsby that I've seen, I like the characterization in this movie the best. Daisy and Tom live up to this quote from the book: "They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made." The characters were self-centered without having any animosity toward the people they ended up hurting, and I felt the other movies didn't capture the carelessness as well. I really didn't like the use of camera filters that made everything extra sparkly.
