      Joker--Rebellion And Comedy In Tragedy

      Joaquin Phoenix is at the peak of his career. Whether it's control, expression management or gestures, it's getting better. His handling and interpretation of the character Joker did not disappoint, with a pair of butterfly wings twisting and protruding on the thin bones and a creepy laughter. The photography is very good; the tone texture and hand-cranking mirror really have nothing to say. The...

      A Brief Comment on the Clown

      6.5 is quite disappointing, it may also be the gap caused by the too high of the previous.

      First of all, extra points are added to the actors' acting skills, photography and soundtracks. These three items are undoubtedly at the upper-middle level, and the acting skills can be said to be very good. But the whole movie is illogical. This film feels like not just that the director doesn't know how to write a good story, but that he doesn't know how to write stories at all. The main line...

      DC is full of ambition, but the director regrets turning a masterpiece into a solo show for Phoenix

      This film review was first published on the public account: Huaguoshan FM.

      The 92nd Academy Awards draw today.

      The nominated "Parasite", "Joker", "The Irishman", "Jojo Rabbit", "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" and "1917" all have champion appearances and interesting stories.

      "Birdman", "Spotlight" and "Moonlight" should be thankful that they have not encountered any of them in the Oscar nominations in the past 5 years, otherwise they may lose very badly.

      I had...

      In the era of no masters, we can only rely on "bias" and "weird" to compete for favor

      2.5/10 ① Complete venting of anger, maybe the creator doesn't know what he wants to shoot, so he can only vent the darkness blindly. In the era of no "master", the only way to make a movie is to rely on weirdness and bias to win, so the director chose to make a mental journey of such a role. It's a pity that this year is a big year for movies. The Joker really can't win any awards except for the best male lead. The Golden Lion Award is too prestigious, maybe the competition is too weak....

      Sealed Demon

      The old fisherman picked up a demon that was sealed in a bottle by King Solomon, but the demon wanted to kill his benefactor. "It was very difficult to be imprisoned in a bottle with no light, and I secretly made a promise: 'If anyone saves me in this century, I will let him enjoy the glory and wealth for life. 100 years have passed, and no one has touched this bottle at all. At the beginning of the second century, I thought to myself: 'Whoever rescues me in this century, I...

      This golden lion is so blind. Joaquin's performance was all wasted, and there was no pathological point of view to look at Joker. From a subjective point of view, the few flashbacks about the neighbor woman were too "chaotic". The overall presentation of Joaquin in "Master" is much better. DC is still inexplicably "antique", and Marvel is already "retrieving movies" through "Avengers 4". If you want to talk about the times, Marvel is more...

      The clown's motives for being the clown are completely unsympathetic, and trying to make up a story for him to give him "humanity" is unconvincing. After all, everyone is born to suffer, but not everyone chooses to be a pervert (it looks kind of useless), and doing evil and hurting innocent people is never equal to resistance. Because of this bad premise, joaquin's very hard performance unfortunately can only be reduced to an empty...

      I would like to say that a movie with a villain as the protagonist may have its artistic value, but a large-scale public release will have a very negative impact. DC may be trying to turn the tables on badass characters, but you're playing with fire! that's not cool at...

      Very good, with the fanatic temperament of "Taxi Driver" (1976), but the appearance is a tribute to "The King of Comedy" (1982), this time old Martin should not criticize that DC's movies are not movies! The texture is first-class, the mirror movement is wonderful, the colors are neurotic to slightly psychedelic, and the spirit is possessed, like watching an old movie in the 1970s and 1980s. The sky is clear and the sun is warm in the metropolis. Apartments, chaotic poor alleys, back alleys...

    Movie plot

    Arthur is a young man. He lives with his sick mother Penny and takes care of her. Arthur works as a clown actor in Gotham City. At the same time, billionaire businessman Thomas showed a clear interest in running for mayor. Arthur has always been plagued by mental illness, and some of his behaviors can't be controlled by himself, which makes him a laughingstock for everyone from time to time, and these ridicules are very out of date. He...

    Evaluation action

    "Joker" is not an action film, nor does it have a clear subjective intention and purpose, but a thought-provoking film with character characteristics research. Aiming at the pathological and indifferent system of power and governance, the film expresses a deep-seated cry of pain and disgust. Director Todd Phillips discarded and downplayed many exaggerated designs in the comics. Through the saturated and bright tones of the picture and...
