After a strong recommendation from a friend, I finally came to see it with high expectations, but unexpectedly did not meet my expectations. On the one hand, I felt that the reversal of the ending was too abrupt without a relatively appropriate layout. On the other hand, the issue of gun control in the United States was used as the main body of the story. The ending was too ideal, which surprised me.
Sloane, a political lobbyist in the capital of Washington, is thoughtful and tactical. In the case of the continuous shooting incidents in the United States, she did not hesitate to sacrifice her career to expose the cruel inside story of the gun bill. She is determined to fight against the odds and strive for success regardless of any value.
The story itself is not simple. After all, it is a story about a lobbyist trying to persuade a huge political force. The script must be very tortuous, and there must be a strong causal relationship to convince the audience. And to support such a script that not only convinces the politicians in the story, but also the audience, there will be a lot of lines, so if you can't concentrate on watching this movie, many details are likely to be ignored, and It makes you look harder and harder. Since this movie really can't explode thunder, it's not interesting once it explodes, and I'm not interested in discussing the details of the script, so I won't say much about the twists and turns of the plot, but I want to say why I don't like this movie. .
In fact, this film is wonderful, because the advantages are constantly alternating between the gun owners and the gun bans, and Jessica Chastain is so powerful in this film that it is enough to watch her perform alone in the whole film, and the tone is quick to give The inexplicable tense atmosphere, like the barrel of a machine gun, is aimed at the politicians and the viewers, so they can't help but focus on this movie. What puzzles me is the character of the male prostitute, Forde, I understand that he exists to make Sloane more flesh and blood, so that the viewer can be more involved in it, but the film does not focus too much on the relationship between him and Sloane, so let Sloane be more involved. I can't understand why he would be willing to help Sloane lie in court? Are the rules of the court so weak? The description of the crime of perjury can be said to be completely absent in this film, as if the judge has no need for other existences in this film except as one of the elements of the comeback at the end. From this part, the screenwriter's technique is a bit rough. Although the movie is a movie, there is no need to integrate reality too much, but this film is mainly about gun control, so it is difficult to completely separate the real problems. Therefore, although the script Wonderful, still can't convince me.
On the other hand, there is the material of the script. I think it is necessary to have certain confidence that an American film should use the issue of gun control as the source of its creation. After all, this is a sensitive issue, and the disputes between the pros and cons have been ongoing for a long time. , thus creating a problem: the viewer will have a given position. Sloane is a lobbyist for the gun ban party. Her purpose is to make the gun ban bill pass smoothly. The script structure of American movies has always been that the protagonist will win, so of course some audiences will guess before watching; however, when the discussion is about firearms When it comes to the issue of regulation, can the established model of "the protagonist win" still work? When I add the idea of the real world, I have an established position first, so whether the protagonist can successfully push the bill may not be the point, but whether the ending of the story can correspond to the ending in the viewer's mind. Of course, my experience in writing this is not objective enough. After all, I also have my own position, and the ending of the movie is too obvious for me to write the script, and the very ideal ending does not meet my expectations. After all, the issue of gun control is a long-term problem. Although Sloane did not solve it easily, it was too smooth. It seems that the politicians’ tactics are not on the same level. Then compare the real dark politics in my heart. For the world, Sloane's brilliant approach is probably still one of the problems that money can solve.
