I can't remember the exact plot of "Black Hawk Down", but "Body of Lies" reminded me of this movie I watched when I was still in school: the scenes, the lines, and the unchanging pair of non-Americans description, and the meaning and spirit of the Stars and Stripes, lest the world tire of it.
Russell Crowe is also an important part of Old History's team today. "Gladiator", "A Good Year", "American Gangster" and this latest "Body of Lies" are not as good as the other, not that Crowe's performance is bad - an actor of his level of skill, unless Self-destructing signboards, otherwise it's not going anywhere. It's just that the novelty is long gone, far less engaging and challenging than Edward Norton's fully masked leprosy in "Kingdom of Heaven." Therefore, it is better to learn from Gong Li and Zhang Yimou's separation for a few years and then cooperate again, maybe it will inspire new chemical elements. In addition, Crowe's silver-grey-haired potbellied image in the film reminds me of that character in "Proof of Life"! ? It's just ten years ago that Crowe worked hard to gain weight and make up to perform, but this time it's true. In ten years, some things have really changed.
Leonardo DiCaprio's three most recent roles ("The Departed", "Blood Diamond" and "Body of Lies") are actually a series, and like Russell Crowe, the quality and evaluation are not equal. That's how easily the British actor who changed his accent to play the head of Jordan's intelligence stole the show. Next year's Oscar nomination for a supporting actor, is it okay to give one?
I don't know since when, Lao Shi fell in love with this kind of script like flowing clouds and water. The film often cuts directly to the topic from a certain point at the beginning, and abruptly stops at a certain point after the events are laid out in detail. No amount of conflict is still bland. Russell Crowe's gushing chat with his partner in American Gangster took my prejudice against Uncle Crowe to a whole new level. For example, at the Easter turkey dinner, he carefully brought the fattest part to the table, but as diners, we may also be obsessed with chicken heads, chicken wings and chicken feet. Probably the same, I still miss the old "Alien", "Blade Runner", "Thelma and Louise", "Gladiator", and the "Kingdom of Heaven" that was not very successful in business and word of mouth.
