I just watched this film because of Rooney. After all, he is there. It can be said that it is a big production. No matter how bad it is, it will not be bad. I just finished watching "The American" late at night. Did not impress me. . .
Later, I came to see the director and found out that it was Anton Corbijn. Then the film must have a head start. When the director saw it, he was born in photography. Every picture is very powerful. It is precisely because of his background in photography that there are not many elements in the film, and it cannot be said to be classical. Academic school, in fact, the film is quite avant-garde.
When it comes to movies, the general film terms are mainly realism and formalism, and most Hollywood movies are realism. The so-called close to literature and art (although I do not agree that movies are divided into literary and commercial films) is formalism. This film is closer to formalism. The director uses the camera to capture the sense of tension and loneliness, but at the same time uses music to create tension. (Realism) So we can see some of the director’s thoughts. He can use Clooney, that is, he is obviously a bitch and also establishes a torii. A film with a personal tone also needs the box office and visual experience, and at the same time adds the control of the story. . Just look at the posters. Basically, posters and movies are not a tone, just for publicity.
Speaking of movies, the trend of future movies should basically be like this. The personal traces of the director will become more and more obvious. At the same time, there must be something that everyone can accept. The best way to use a big star is. The proportion of independent directors in Hollywood is also increasing. The Coen brothers and Quentin are already familiar with them. Personality is a must, but it doesn’t necessarily mean that someone likes it. Contemporary art still needs to be explained. But you can’t explain the film. Everyone can watch it. So I don’t like this film very much, but I can’t deny that it’s not. A good film can only be wrong to me at best.
No matter what, Clooney may want to take a little golden man, or he may just like this kind of thing, but maybe he walks too fast, too fast or too slow is not good, basically everyone still generally dislikes this kind of thing. The content of the movie is long and not fun, and it may be like this in Hollywood in the future. . . . .
Speaking of China, it’s terribly pitiful. Everyone is cheering about the cottage, but they don’t know that fast food has already begun to be eliminated. Domestic directors are making bad movies under the guise of making movies for the common people. Movie fans watched it. It’s uncomfortable because it’s just for a recreational person to watch it. It can’t improve the aesthetics at all, so that everyone is still in the stage of TV series. On the contrary, everyone can’t accept a good film. It should be very simple, that is, it is the same as the mainstream Indian or musical , Because most of these films are produced there. I see that many websites have a much higher evaluation of "Xiyang Cyan Taro" than "Smart Daddy Fox". When it comes to saying that it supports domestic production, it supports the ass. The milk powder is also domestically produced, and supports it too! Such a great nation should support it well.
It seems to be too far, but too far. As for the film, I don’t feel it. As a film-student, I dare not talk nonsense in front of the master. Although the film has few traces of post-processing, the quality is still there, but I don’t like it.
