I have too many thoughts on The Great Gatsby (2013)

This video sees me delving into the 2013 adaptation of the Great Gatsby directed by Baz Luhrmann; a film that many have regarded as a definitive version of F Scot Fitzgerald's original novel, while others regard it as a dubstep-laden imitation of the literary classic. Which one is it? Settle in and find out, old sport!
