The Act of Killing evaluation action

"The Act of Killing" is distressing and unreality. It recalls those mass murders that do not want to repent   .
"The Act of Killing" is not like a traditional documentary. It is a natural "miracle." The writer has no confession, but the director skillfully uses a simple plot to make him a dual role of masochism and sadism. He has become a prop or actor in the human disaster. The super-panoramic shooting reproduces the audience's sense of reality, that is, what the audience sees is not the movie, but the whole scene of the distorted story they are shooting and telling. There are no real bloody killings in the film, and scenes such as decapitation fully explain the essence of the props and performances, but the whole story is shuddering, and even in the laughter and natural tranquility, people can see the cruelty of the killers in the past. People have also seen the scene of the executioners repenting of violence and killing after half a century, and the decisive truth that the thoughts and actions of cruel killing are not far from us. This is the so-called real killing without blood   .
"The Act of Killing" cannot be simply defined as showing the history of the massacre, nor is it talking about the heinous people in that history. It is talking about human nature after encountering such a historical situation. Complex changes   .

    I don't agree with the way that the documentaries intervene in the creation of the recorded person, but the "off-screen play" in this film is the most appropriate and shining point, which leads the recorded person step by step to the "abyss of empathy" ". Another thing worth reading about the film is that it doesn't have any historical data or the victim's perspective. The director knows his direction and persistence, and finally creates a feeling that is more terrifying than the past.

    A little too long and loose. But the whole movie is a weird and humorous mindfuck

The Act of Killing quotes

  • Jusuf Kalla - Vice President of Indonesia: [addressing a large Pancasilla gathering] The spirit of Pancasilla Youth - which people accuse of being gangsters - Gangsters are people who work outside the system - not for the government. The word "gangster" comes from "free men". This nation needs "free men"! If everyone worked for the government - we'd be a nation of bureaucrats. We'd get nothing done. We need gangsters to get things done. Free, private men who get things done. Use your muscles! Muscles aren't for beating people up - though beating people up is sometimes needed.

    [Audience laughs]

    Jusuf Kalla - Vice President of Indonesia: Once more, Pancasilla! Forever! Pancasilla! Freedom!

  • Anwar Congo: Why do people watch James Bond? To see action. Why do people watch films about Nazis? To see power and sadism! We can do that! We can make something even more sadistic than... more sadistic than what you see in movies about Nazis. Sure I can. Because there's never been a movie where heads get chopped off - except in fiction, but that's different - because I did it in real life!
