At first I saw the introduction of this movie and ignored it. Later, with the release of "Batman", "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" and "Machinist", I remembered the performance strength of Bell, a super acting school. Later, I saw this "Extraordinary Period" again and found that it has all the wonderful elements: an independent film, a powerful actor, Bell already has a considerable reputation, there should be many movies to choose from, since he chose this movie, he There must be something extraordinary.
After I started watching, a sense of disappointment erupted. Although Bell’s acting skills didn’t have to be said, but I was puzzled as to why he took over the film. The first 100 minutes was a series of changing background music. The next few adult gangsters are mischievous, full of swear words, and useless, just like contemporary hippies. The taste is so heavy that it is unacceptable. Could it be that more than two hours is to watch a b-level film that they are fooling around? Doesn't this waste my time? Even for the two male protagonists, I still have no sympathy. I have the same views as the lawyer girlfriend. Why they can’t find a job? It’s all because they can find a job. All the status quo was created by themselves, and they cannot blame others. If the time spent wandering around is used to earnestly looking for work and studying, it will definitely be different.
Until the end, Bell suddenly lost control and died. I was shocked. Everything in front of Dare to love is for the final orgasm. This is really a super dark heart-abuse movie. I'm depressed. It's better to watch it. I deleted it halfway through, and it wouldn't make me so uncomfortable. I can understand the director's painstaking efforts. It's not that they don't want to get a job, but they can't get a job. Their own reasons are only a small part. A war-wounded soldier was the government's tool of killing when he was a soldier. After he returned from the military, he was ruthlessly abandoned. He couldn't even find a job. All he found was discrimination and unfair treatment. He was useless. The only thing he could get was his killing machine ability, so he was sent to Colombia. This is something he cannot accept, and he has to accept it. He can only compromise. Looking at the social environment in the United States at that time, the unemployment rate has reached 10%, and it is not surprising that there is this movie. Jim will eventually go on the road of destruction, because he has no way to go. The movie can be said to be a runaway journey of a veteran, everything is out of control, work is out of control, friends are out of control, even the most trusted Mexican woman is out of control, carrying him on his back and breaking the child, everything is out of control, the only one The road is destruction. The final tragic ending was created by the government, society, environment and individuals. This movie is definitely a super classic masterpiece.
