Do you think The Revenant is a masterpiece or a near-masterpiece?

Feel similar: on the big screen, it was so immersive and I was completely transported. Loved Dicaprio's performance and the way it was shot, but thought the spiritual stuff was corny and unnecessary, and thought the parallel action was weak, and didn't find the ending satisfying - would have preferred to continue with the will to survive theme than the revenge sought and rejected theme which felt forced to me. Doubt I would have liked it that much if I'd seen it on a small screen and would not be interested in revisiting it except for in a theatre.

If to stand pat means to resist evil then, yes, neighbour, we wish to stand pat.
