      Which movies have premiered at the Beijing Film Festival, poke in and get surprises!

      Text|I ssac

      The film festival is certainly a good opportunity for the audience to review their favorite movies, classics, or masterpieces on the big screen. But for filmmakers, this is an excellent platform for them to introduce their masterpieces to the world.

      It is very common for a director or even an entire team to travel to major film...

      A legendary running account

      It is difficult for biopics not to be labeled as "keeping a running account". Unfortunately, this movie is not immune. It records the life of the legendary drug lord Escobar, which is not ugly. The selected key stories are quite memorable after reading them. For example, when the police used multiple helicopters to attack his camp, he escaped naked. At the very moment, I have not forgotten to tell my crew to open the pigeon cage to release the pigeons-flocks of pigeons flew into the sky, hit...

      Real crime blockbuster

      The movie is a mistress, a biography of Pablo, an old Colombian drug lord. Judging from the plot of the movie, it was written after the drug lord was desperate and was eventually shot to death by the police. What's more, with such three wrong views, the movie actually portrays the drug lord as a "Colombian hero", which is really amazing.

      Of course, from our perspective, it is also very enlightening, at least the drug lord in the movie is a real character. This person was...

      Records of Beiying Film Watching

      A friend gave a ticket, I loved the hero, I didn't understand it before I saw it. But after watching the movie, I think it's not bad, it's worth watching.

      The heroes and heroines are not perfect, they feel worthy but they are pitiful and cute.

      The film is told in the tone of the heroine.

      The hero, the big drug lord, had a smooth life and was sitting on a large amount of wealth, but because of a sentence from your companion, you now look like a politician. And the heart...

      I appreciate a sentence in the play

      "Seeing so many children go hungry, we are very painful and completely abandoned by the government. Build these houses for them and create a dream country together."

      That day I no longer care about how Pablo makes money, but how I use it.

      This sentence is that the drug lords used to advertise themselves and went into official career after being cleansed. But to a certain extent, many rich people who do legitimate business have never done it.

      Earn money from foreigners and...

      It's a pity that the male god is full of fat; the drug lord is so good that even the full movie seems frivolous and hasty; I still wear it...

      Penelope Cruz is still so beautiful. The plot is probably due to the fact that Escobar has seen too many themes, and there is not much...

      It's really a running account.. After watching the drama "Narcos", I was very "fascinated" by Pablo, and suddenly I saw this Pablo biopic, and it was so well-matched! Hurry up and grab resources and get ready to enjoy it again~ Result =_=············ The rhythm of the whole process is almost no waves, and when I see the last Gomei police being mad at it, I can't bear my emotions at all. Telling stories like this is a waste of Deng & Pei's acting skills. PS: Deng Shu Guoben's long shot is a...

    Evaluation action

    The film pays more attention to different concepts and ideas than most gang-type movies, but it is still difficult to generate many original insights   . ("Guardian" review)
    The film depicts the seemingly attractive main character Pablo Escobar with cartoon-like thick lines. Although it tries to retain the seriousness of an epic crime drama, the whole thing is as exaggerated as a soap opera   . (Comment on "Pianfeng...)
