    (1) The mental hospital is the tyranny of the majority against the minority, and it is one of the things I hate most in this world. (2) Compared with crossing, what I care more about is the eschatological complex that never gets tired of. The desperate people all over the world, let them die like this. Maybe that's the best new world? (3) How to live a normal life, be a consumer like Pete said (isn’t this what he said in Fight...

    The screenwriter is average. But for Pete's little neurosis, give this film one more star. This ghost can actually turn his eyes up and down, which is too bright. No matter whether it's cheap or black, pretending to be deep or acting as a hooligan, Pete plays like a playful, after this, his status in my heart soared directly from the bones of the drama to the god of...

    Seeing a movie classified as the same as it, you know that this is a strong psychological film, but unexpectedly: the plot is not imagined by the protagonist, but progresses in real time. The protagonist once suspected that he was in a fantasy, but then The plot will correct it. The heroine is destined to affect the male protagonist because of its diverse amorous feelings. At the end, the child's eyes are very interesting. The escape is so fascinating. Another movie that can be analyzed...

    The circle is getting bigger. If you don't have enough willpower, you will be distracted or sleepy. When I watched it last time, I was not in good spirits. Now I finally finished reading it. I realized it later when I saw it. Oh, this circle is big enough. In fact, many sci-fi movies about the time machine returning to the future and changing history are causal cycles. The current cause is actually the result planted by the future back to the present, so as to ensure the continuation of...

    The future is history. Cole is a combination of Cassandra and Oedipus. He can predict the future, but is regarded as a lunatic like Cassandra; he wants to change the future, but becomes a doll of destiny like Oedipus. For Cole, history is the destiny in Greek mythology, which cannot be broken away. It has been written in black and white, just as the poet at the beginning of the film said: All your piety and wisdom will not make it a little bit back, and all your tears will not be...

    Compared with the experimental static picture combination of Chris Mark’s original "Dyke", Terry Gilliam used his strong personal touch and strange visual style to rewrite it into a perverse, pungent but extremely tragic satire. Cole used his life and love to draw an endless circle in time and space; there are too many places worth mentioning, such as a tribute to Hitchcock, which is really a work of...

    It is a time travel-themed movie with a completely different style from "Butterfly Effect", and the time loop is very good. Brad Pitt performed very...

    The film’s dystopia is not as good as Brasilia, Terry Gilliam. Actually, it should be regarded as another possible Lynch. He has weird magical powers in macro-science fiction semiotics and metaphorical expressions, but everything exists in the general direction. Interpretation Lynch’s interpretation One person, Terry, interprets the symptoms of an era. The film emphasizes determinism. No matter how hard Cole tries, he can only understand his mortal destiny. Pete's performance is the biggest...
