      He has the most say about the art of killing

      "Man Bite Dog" is a movie that makes people feel uncomfortable, but also very exciting. I don't seem to be able to describe a movie that way, because it's rare for a movie to make me uncomfortable and excited at the same time.

      Watching violent movies such as "A Clockwork Orange", "Born to Kill" and "Kill Bill" is more of excitement; while...

      Be kind to heavy lives and say goodbye to violence

      "Man Bite Dog"
            uses violence to promote nonviolence.
            A fake documentary, occupied the top spot in the Belgian box office with a production cost of 1.5W. Inevitably become a story.
            The film tells the story of a killer who kills a killer from the perspective of a documentary by three producers. The plot is both depressing and absurd as well as hilarious and thought-provoking.
            Why does the protagonist kill people? In order to make money, after the...

      "Man bites dog": position decides right and wrong view

      I watched this movie, which was advertised as a "classic in the history of CULT", intermittently.

      I feel that this is a very interesting movie. The movie itself is full of strong imagination, and it can give the audience a strong desire for imagination, which is very interesting. Rare.

        Let's talk about the title first. The real name of this film should be "Man bites dog: This killer is not too cold" or "Man bites dog: Gentle killing". Because the killer in the film is...

Ben said to the DV in front of him: For this kind of old man with heart disease, the best way is to startle and stimulate it, stimulate the disease, and then watch them die without first aid.

      The title of the film is very interesting, the values ​​of the male protagonist are too distorted, and it feels quite absurd. The following people are getting worse and worse, and the last few were killed by vendetta. It's surprising to meet fellow photographers, and the game of floating olives is quite...

      I don't know how much to rate this movie, it's too speechless to watch. . Looking at me, I was cold all over. This is almost the same as the emperor. If he is not happy, he will kill him and do whatever he wants. . The first second and the second after you laugh, it breaks you down. It's dangerous to be around people like this every second. The character setting is really creative. . And the actors acted very well. . I don't know where to find that...

    "Man Bites Dog" feels the frenzy on the verge of collapse just from the name. Because it was filmed in the form of a documentary and it was a black and white film, there would be a serious illusion that the whole film seemed to be a live news broadcast, and it was still ages as if it happened in a human being who is not yet fully civilized. Historical period. So people who watched this film will think deeply and analyze the violent...
