true and correct view of violence to
kill? From Kurosawa to Quentin to Michael Bay, the modern concept of killing has been formed. Excessive violence makes the audience insensitive and confuses the concepts of violence and the aesthetics of violence. Place real violence in an environment flooded with fake violence, which can often receive praise, but after choosing to use the concept of real violence in the movie, there is a difference. It is a radical expression of its opposite to life. The broken leg and broken gun in Bruges are still calmly integrated into life-the killer in "The American" also finds prostitutes and eats.
At this time, it became a choice. Different performances give people different feelings. In Bruges, it is obviously a little bit abrupt and shallow. There is a feeling of violence in order to show violence. Violence has become the forefront. Violence and violence The aesthetic gap is the main target. "The American" integrates violence superficially into life, paying more attention to the consistency of the violent’s emotional thinking with the public, revealing a trace of violent cruelty in the slow pace, which is also in line with George Clooney's life-like but special performance style, such as the detective who burned Reid after reading.
The film is more thought-provoking when it shapes violence. A large part of the previous one is more like an explanation, forming a slow and plain rhythm, and then gradually adding violent renderings, making people see an ordinary killer, an ordinary killer. American, a low-key gentleman.
