As a pure tough guy movie, Mel's performance is as good as before, and he interprets the character of this tragic tough guy very well. His actions, words, and eyes fully express the inner world of the protagonist, and his acting skills are well deserved.
The film's male protagonist, Link, is a former criminal who is an alcoholic. Now he is in the serious business of tattooing, hiding his inner wounds alone and hiding his name. Until one day, his daughter was in danger, and Link had no choice but to return to the rivers and lakes, bravely enter the tiger's den for his beloved daughter, and kill all the evildoers. It deduces a bloody legend of a tough old man's "dragon crossing the river" style.
As a highly recommended new film, there will be no shortage of highlights.
What to watch, veteran Hollywood actor
Mel Gibson (playing Link), naturally needless to mention, aside from some problems in his private life and speech, in terms of acting skills,
William H. Macy (playing Kirby) is "impeccable", He has been famous for a long time, and he likes the Frank he performed in Shameless the most. He is famous for his acting skills and is famous for Erin Moriarty (playing Lydia) on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
. After 90s, I didn't know each other before. I met him after watching this film. What should I say? After all, he is playing against Mel, so his acting skills are at least
good to watch. In terms of refreshing and tense storyline
scenes, the director places the actors in an endless desert. This design is very close to "Mad Max" and has a great sense of substitution, which makes the audience feel at once. It reminds me of Mel, who was the protagonist of "Mad Max" in his early years. Coupled with the intense firefights and bloody gunfights, it is simply a reset version of Mad Max. The director's wonderful concept and design made many Mel's nostalgic fans instantly excited.
In terms of plot, the film is about a father saving his daughter. Recall that the most similar movie recently is Liam Neeson's "Hurricane Rescue" trilogy. Compared with the two, they have the same plot, and Liam's interpretation seems to be better.
Narratively, Blood Father is straightforward and clean. Purely hardcore "father-daughter" movies, without any other inexplicable elements, the ideas are clear and unambiguous.
It is no exaggeration to say that this one-and-a-half-hour movie is completely based on the established trajectory, there is no trace of deviation, no redundant dialogue, no redundant characters, no redundant unrelated themed plot, only tension. Thrilling, intricate storyline.
What to watch, the actual meaning of the film is
the contest between "sin" and "love". Only "love" can save the world.
Sin, "Blood Father", shows a New Mexico state where gangsters, killers, drug dealers, and criminals of all kinds are rampant (a bit like "sin city"), and the director goes to great lengths to portray this crime-riddled area.
Love, Link's fatherly love, "selfless love" runs through the whole story. He gave up his hard-earned quiet life, re-armed himself, and finally perished with the enemy in order to save his daughter.
The contrast between "sin" and "love" makes the audience think more while enjoying the film.
Written at the end, "Blood Father" is not only watching the actors, not only watching the intense and exciting plot, but also watching the message of "love" conveyed by the film, which can be used for a lifetime.
