[Marlow wakes up, already in the bizarre 1970s. ] Indeed, the director seems to use this cat-loving detective who seeks the truth in his own way on the edge of darkness to describe the psychedelic chaos of the 1970s. The jazzy and sad theme song is quite consistent with the title of the...

(The version I saw) The frame is so close to the face that it seems to have been cropped. The characters and cats and dogs are very cute, but they fall asleep. ....

The script is a major subversion of the original. Marlowe sticks to his hands, often talking to himself, and his sentimental and eccentric character is very similar to the characters in Godard's films. The zoom lens deepens the psychedelic style of the...

The adaptation is full of daring. Marlowe isn't the temperament in the original either, but I don't hate it. But when the ending music plays, the so-called "long goodbye" sadness is completely...

The zoom lens makes people vomit... But there are still bright spots, such as the naked girl next door.... For example, Arnold Schwarzenegger who plays a gangster while undressing and showing off his...

A very bold and zeitgeist adaptation, Philip Marlowe is no longer the gloomy, alcoholic, helpless dark hero of the 1940s and 1950s, he has become a yuppie of the 1970s, though still an outsider and a bystander overall. but the shot at the end of the movie has a full ranger spirit. Regrettably, the narrative was unsuccessful, and the interrelationships of events were too vague and rambling. Governor Arnold played tricks in it, and it was very...

The man's casual swaying tone of voice and his fussy and constantly missing cat are amazing (thinking of Spike) "Just in case you haven't caught up, this is the address I'm going to, it's an honor to have someone following me ." Across the door from the penthouse apartment is a group of nude yoga neighbors, and there are star-like doormen. Major deletions to the original...

Marlowe is very successful. Beneath his casual exterior is a heart of gold, always chasing the truth. It's a pity that half of Terry's story is completely lost, and half of the story's interest is lost. Marlowe's last shot was completely far removed from Chandler's "elegant"...

The best "American" movie ever. Just as a detective can strike a match on any available surface, the film serendipitously achieves the freedom of the imagination by consuming all kinds of vulgar material in abundance. Because in mainstream American cinema, less is not always more, only more is really more. The film is mixed with multiple values, but it has the naive characteristics of American films, like "justice" and "evil", which can neither be rationally encoded nor critically decoded in...

Due to some problems, I couldn't see the second half of the original book, and because the story was too bland, it was not destined to have a particularly good remake. In the first half, some good details of the original work were almost ignored, which is very regrettable. I don't know how much the second half deviates. If the main line of the story does not change, then even if the mystery in my heart is finally revealed, it can be regarded as a conclusion to the...
