Louis Bloom (Jake Gyllenhaal), out of work
and with a criminal record, finds an outlet for his burning ambition by
entering the world of crime journalism. Disturbingly real, and with
cringe-worthy acts from Louis that make sure that he gets the most shocking
story every night and drives up TRPs, and with a partnership with the morning
news director of a deadbeat news channel – Nina (Rene Russo), Louis finds that
crime – or its grisly aftermath – does pay, and how. Handling competition and
crime victims with a ruthlessness that borders on psychopathy, this
Nightcrawler is a must watch, perhaps not for casual family viewing
