The beginning of the first 6 minutes is very good, the hand-held style is very prominent, the scheduling of characters and cameras, and the appearance of characters are all very well designed, but the script starts to feel boring before the Incentive Event. It's too late, I can understand the creator's urgency to shape the image of the protagonist. After all, not everyone knows Tommy, but Tommy's shaping is still very pale, and for the goal of pursuing a dream, in fact, everyone can. Understandable, there is no need to lay the groundwork for so long. After the Inciting Incident, the plot started to be like a running account. This is also a trap that biographical films are easy to fall into. In short, I feel that there is no hope of winning the Oscar for Best Screenplay, which makes me want to fast-forward all the time.
If a movie needs to have seen the original book or the original film to understand it, it can never be considered a good film. You can’t force all the audience to understand your content based on the original book. How can the script be nominated for an Oscar? I really have my doubts, all the explanatory lines, it seems pale, especially the scene where the decision to make a movie is actually Greg saying "Let's make a movie", and then they actually do it. A movie, maybe it's a true rendition of the real situation, but in my opinion, it's really boring, like a primary school student's composition. If you didn't catch my eye in the first 40 minutes, why should I wait for that final touch?
