      "The Lost River" fight monsters to protect the homeland

      Some movies, like human beings, are genres that can be looked at. You didn't feel it at the first glance, but after the second glance, and then after looking back, you found it was very good, and the more you look at it, the more it tastes. To use this kind of introduction to pull out "The Lost River", I want to say that the first work written and directed by Commander Gao has this kind of charm in my opinion.

      It is more appropriate to classify "Mi He" as a fantasy thriller. There are...

      "The Lost River" Film Critic: Ryan Gosling's Imitation Show

      Hollywood's popular niche Ryan Gosling, this directorial debut shortlisted for a focus unit, can be said to be lack of creativity to a certain extent.

        The protagonist of Ryan Gosling's self-written and directed debut novel "The Misty River" is a group of "nail households" stationed in a shanty town in a decadent small town in the United States. The film presents a visual and sensory enjoyment to the audience, from which some real talents can be seen. It's just that this seems to be...

      "The Lost River"

      After watching the film, I basically believe that this is Ryan Gosling's self-searching and venting during the performance bottleneck period, which was greatly influenced by Nicolas Winding Refn.
       
      His vivid expressions of overthrowing self-destiny and destroying the inner sanctuary were incisively and vividly expressed in burning houses over and over again. In addition, several audio-visual effects were also excellent.
       
      But these are still difficult to save the overall...

      Lost river, Lost world.

      I have been thinking about why the rating of this movie is so low. In my opinion, this is definitely a rare and good movie. Many people will have a doubt after watching it? What do you want to say about this movie? Then he would think about it. After a while, he would give himself an answer to convince himself, and then he waved his hand and sighed: What kind of rubbish! Maybe there are some sensible people in this, they will sigh: Ah~ the filming is okay, it is where it is not enough, where...

      Mihe

      As an actor, Ryan Gollings directed his debut novel "The River of Lost" (2014). Although the film styles of Terence Malick and David Lynch are mixed, I still think it has something special. The construction of the story, such as setting up a stage to sing a play, should not be biased in any part. The so-called Mihe River is a small town in the past that was flooded by river water. Since then, it has become a place of misty and slumping, just like some of our country's...

      The director wanted to film the psychedelic life of the left-behind in the small town of Detroit, but unfortunately the screenwriter took medicine, a men’s shoe with an Oedipus complex cut off the head of a dinosaur model underwater, the bloody nightclub show was fake, the end of the pink corridor The nutshell was originally full of suspense, but it only offered a paragraph of flamenco. Death has never set foot in the psychedelic land in the camera, and those thin atrocities are just...

    Evaluation action

    The pictures of the whole film are full of psychedelic taste. The bokeh lights formed a sharp contrast with the actor's face. ( Timeline Review  )
    The visual effects of the film are very dreamy, but it seems that it basically borrowed the dreams of other directors. The unbalanced, interlaced world throughout the film is full of random, symbolic, and surreal images. Most of them point to ruins and decay, as if a group of ghosts occupy...
