Caleb S @review-person-friend77 6d This movie was powerful. I’ve always been a proponent of using medicine through legal means, but this movie made me rethink a lot of my opinion about regulations concerning the terminally ill. I was very impressed with the acting and the storytelling and how it helped the viewer to overcome stereotypes and prejudice towards people with HIV, particularly homosexual and bisexual patients. As a movie, it did its job—it helped change the audience’s paradigm through art. If anything, I am much more compassionate toward those who want to seek alternative treatments.

See it was sad that the struggle that he had to go through to get to the point to where he is today Matthew McConaughey he yet again doesn’t disappoint. The movie just dragged a little bit, but probably Jarret‘s only good performance ever. See more Karina S @KarinaSK Nov 23 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💫 See more GABRIELY Oct 15 The movie is awesome.

I had never heard of it, until I wondered how DiCaprio didn't win an Oscar for the Wolf. McConaughey stole it from him with his performance in Dallas Buyers Club. I was perplexed because I had never seen such a performance as DiCaprio's in the Wolf and couldn't believe he fell short of McConaughey. The movie starts off with a "bang", literally. McConaughey has intercourse with a prostitute which is fairly unknown to the audience at the time. And that's where he is exposed to HIV which is the centerpiece of the entire movie. The start to the movie is filled with guilt, sin, and negligence which is a common theme throughout the movie. Subtitles help to understand not only the southern accent, but the poor speech and mumbling displayed by the uneducated characters. My favorite particular aspect of the movie is the evolution of McConaughey's character as he is forced to expose himself to people much different than him. He goes to being a radical homophobe to being accepting and defensive for them.
