This score is a bit low, and the movie currently has a score of over 8 on imdb. However, I believe that after a year and a half, its average score will definitely drop. After all, people say that without two or three years of precipitation, the reference value of the score on imdb is only 50%.
The reason why I gave such a score is because my feeling after watching this movie is: my own patience is really good, maybe people are more relaxed during the Spring Festival. I think the director and editor have a lot of responsibility. To put it bluntly, this movie really makes people feel. It is from the moment when Brad Pitt was shot, that is, the last 20 minutes of the plot, that people understand the meaning of the movie. Just like the water snake-like title The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford
, the key word is a
plot before Coward. Is it necessary? Yes, absolutely! Without the foreshadowing of the first 2 hours, the later climax would not be the climax, but the problem is, the first 2 hours, I think it is a failure.
Two questions: First, the pace of the film is too slow and too long, is it necessary to drag it to 160 minutes? Couldn't the editing be more concise, and there are many scenes that could be shot closely; second, the drama needs conflict, a very important point for the film, why did Casey Affleck go from a brad pitt admirer to a killer? On this point, the film did not do enough articles on it, and why so many people sought after brad pitt after his death, the film did not write enough about it.
All in all, this movie could have been made a little better! The first 2 hours really tested the patience of the audience
