Review:  Made with a modest budget, the film highlights the contemporary journalism devious tricks crime. Let fear overwhelm his mind with his dead silence, dangerous, scary nights and a scary character Lou Bloom (Jake Gyllenhaal).
Desperate to find a job, Lou, a sociopath, he realizes that shooting and sale of raw images of crime for local news is a good source of income. Auto-fit of a camera and a police scanner, it goes hunting at night, in search of intact crime scene. Soon begins to work as their means of survival is his cruel obsession. To stay on top of your game, Lou goes to the place to stop and treatment. You can get away with it?

Besides being noirish, Nightcrawler also functions as a social satire. Voyeurism and the lack of ethics that the media often shows shamelessly mocked. The cinematography is another plus. Director Dan Gilroy debut should be commended for his nervous performance.

However, one of the best performances of his own preferences, Gyllenhaal, who runs the entire film on his shoulders. Because the lonely anti-hero, soulless, selfish, cold and calculating, is a revelation here. The actor sends chills and thrills with his piercing eyes and prolonged ambiguous intentions. It will remind Travis Bickle great Robert De Niro in Taxi Driver.

Jake noticeable weight loss, adding more ugly to the horror of nature and psyche. Their modesty Rene Russo (News Leader) are cringeworthy proposals. Riz Ahmed (The Reluctant Fundamentalist) as unhappy employee Lou is molded perfect.

Diablo is tense and horrible, but strangely funny, fascinating and attractive at the same time. Look at him.
