Hypocritical stone————“Dangerous Prison Fright”

Today is the second time I have watched this film, and I suddenly discovered that apart from the brilliant acting skills of Edward Norton and the old drama player Robert De Niro, this film is just a second-rate production. There are overly obvious hints everywhere and too much effort to explain the truth. Once the director's attempts to persecute you unlimitedly, he is almost one step away from hypocrisy.

This is a film that tries to explore religion, rebirth, and the heart, but it makes you feel that it is just a moral preaching film under the cloak of religion. The failure of the director is that any good film is good at leaving blank space, allowing the audience to feel and realize it by themselves, but this film explains everything on the contrary, you can understand everything without any pause, instead of your objectivity. , And his own subjectivity must not be embedded in your cognition. There is no proper technique, but in general, at least one story has been told.


Edward Norton and Robert De Niro, individually speaking, are first-class performers, but the two of them have completely lacked the sparks they should have in almost all of the rival scenes in this film. Knowing if the two people's magnetic fields are at odds with each other, making the film fall into a boring piece.

As for the content of the film, it is also a matter of moral judgment. The strange thing is that the film originally wanted to say that Robert De Niro, the parole officer, faced the prisoner every day as the hypocrisy of acting as God, but when I watched the film, I felt that the director was talking about the parole officer. At the same time as the story, isn’t it also a hypocrisy who acts as a god? The reverse mockery makes me feel that no one should try to judge anyone in this world. Freedom is only in the nose of others. The

relatively best section, only the last section of Edward Norton's departure, accompanied by the dialogue of the problem he has been thinking about. , But still feel that preaching is inevitable. But as far as preaching is concerned, it can be regarded as an excellent rhetoric in preaching.
When you experience a spiritual truth, that is comes to you through sound. If you let the sound go through you, it changes you. Put you back to the harmony, makes you like a tunning fork of God.

My opinion is to believe or Don't believe it, just up to you.
