      "The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus" Andrew Garfield

      After watching the movie curiously, I found that I could not understand the fantasy and absurd connotation of the movie.
      But I finished it.
      Because I always thought that girl was someone worthy of realizing her dreams.
      To live for 1,000 years and be very old is very terrifying and helpless.
      So, behind the absurd,
      Those who have dreams that will eventually come true.
      Greedy people will die by their own hands.
      Simple people should have a happy life.
      Life is...

      True Lies

      After watching "Fantasy Show", sorting out the clues is really a troublesome job. It is rare to see such "nervous" works, but this time I was deeply impressed. Never before has anyone had such great ambitions and mocked almost the entire human race! Beauty, power, money, and even belief and family love are all disguised and put in hysterical "fantasy shows" that are manipulated and directed by a few mindless people. There are two key words throughout the film: "lie" and "choice". We usually say...

      colorful candy box

      Before watching it, I thought this movie was going to be a little darker and weirder. I prefer it that way.
      After watching it, I feel that although the plot of this movie is a bit messy, many plots are not complete, and the climax is not obvious, but due to the participation of many stars, and the somewhat fake but innovative CG scene, this movie is like a colorful candy. The box is very nice.
      I have to say, Lily's figure is really amazing... As a woman, I have to admire how beautiful...

      untitled

      The theme of the film is that immortality is a curse. The old man has lived for thousands of years, but even if he spends thousands of years of life, it will not equal the moment when he first met the child's mother, and that moment ignited his life and made his life made sense. So the main thread of this story is the symbol of this meaning - the question of where the old man's daughter will go when she is 16 years old. The old man needs to win the gamble with the devil, but he can't do it. He...

      In memory of Heath

      Magical fairy tales have never been my favorite.
      Frankly speaking, I really didn't understand what this film was about.
      I watched it because of the male protagonists.
      This is the posthumous work of Heath Ledger
      . The bad news of Heath's death,
      Jude Law, Johnny Depp and Colin Farrell appeared to help Terry complete the film. The
      connection is not bad, not too abrupt.
      Lily Cole is such a monster. She has big breasts and is 1.8 meters tall
      . The biggest...

    Evaluation action

    The bet between Dr. Parnassos and the devil in the film is easily reminiscent of Goethe’s "Faust". Like all ancient stories, the doctor tried to get rid of his destiny, but he could not start making new bets with the devil, and continued to be unable to escape. Fate. Such stories usually have a sad ending. The ending arranged by the director is a bit sad but not pessimistic. Compared with the heavy main line, the plot of the story is...
