      He is a hero

      The Chinese translation of the film is, Boy and Joe, but in the final analysis, it's Joe's story.
       
      In fact, Joe himself is a tragic character. When Cage plays this role, he always looks drunk, lacks energy, and always frowns.
       
      Joe is capable and kind.
      When the story first started, he took a group of workers to chop wood. When the boy asked Joe to work, Joe gave him a job in a very simple and straightforward way.

      Lao Tzu is awesome!

      About boy father G-Daawg

      Nowadays, seeing the name of Nicolas Cage, you will feel that the movie is 80% a joke. It is only when you see the name of David Gordon Green that you become interested. I saw DGG once and liked him very much. Young, successful in business, but not arrogant, humorous, clear-headed, and approachable.

      The characters in the film are all from the bottom of the United States, living a life like a stray dog. Three protagonists: Nicolas Cage (Joe), Tye Sheridan (boy) and Gary Poulter...

      Joe's sadness is that there is no hope

      Nicholas Cage has handsome muscles and beard. He laughed at me when he taught the boy to be handsome.

      The story is not complicated, and the taste in the ordinary is acceptable. If it weren't for the sadness of the background music, it might be more interesting to be less sensational.

      1. The old drunkard G-dog

      The old drunkard jumped off the bridge and fell to his death. Did he commit suicide or attempt to escape? I prefer the former. He whispered and asked Nicholas, are you...

      Nothing changed.

      Joe bought Gary a new life at the cost of death. ——This is what people want to see.

      But it is very likely that the direction of the story is: Gary's cowardly mother hated him and caused the death of her husband from now on, and the physically and mentally injured sister eventually became a prostitute due to barrenness and weakness, and Gary became the next Joe. , Depressed all day long, life is more torturing than enjoyment for him.

      Why do we need a disgusting role like...

      Cage's control over the film is the same as his fat body. It's not as old as it used to be, but it's old and there are old people. Like Sean Connery, he can play as deep as he can. Anyone can be a son. After drinking it, the fragrance will last for a long...

      It's very funny. Like the Prince of Avalanche at the end, I want to talk about "home reconstruction" and "spiritual home reconstruction", but there are too many points, the intention is too obvious, and the characters are too vague and scribbled. In the end, in order to portray Cage as a savior, he also made him "impotent" and against the law, silly. Think about the four or five years I haven't seen a Cage...

    Negative View

    His father was a defeated alcoholic, and the young man struggled with despair in his life, until Joe, a man who had never known his life, a former criminal who had been in jail, was willing to sacrifice himself for the future of the young man.
    There are always the dirty characters, poor environments, cramped shots, and unscrupulous actors of independent films, but there is no independent film's desperate maverick and the absolute truth...

    Positive view

    In the film "Joe", his performance suddenly reminds me of his style in "Far from Casino" 20 years ago. 20 years! With a flick of a finger, I suddenly realized that Nicholas hadn't changed anything, but his changeable personality made people feel that his state was unstable, and his adventurous spirit made him dare to try any role and took it. A lot of bad movies, he gradually moved away from the mainstream Hollywood market. We have to...

    • Joe: Ah, the dog likes you.

      Gary: She has a lot of scars.

      Joe: Yeah, but all the others... all the others is dead.

    • [last lines]

      Farmer: Then, if everything goes good on that acreage, I'll have you help me supervise the Manea project next summer. Old bastards can be hard to work for sometimes, but, hell, if you worked for Joe, I think you'll do just fine. You got any questions?

      Gary: No, sir. When can I start?

      Farmer: Right now, if you're ready.

      Gary: Yes, sir.

      [extends his hand to shake]

      Gary: So, you knew Joe?

      Farmer: Yeah, sure did. Joe's a good man. Good man to me, anyways.

      Gary: He was a good man to me, too.
