The first thing this film gives people a strong visual impact is the distinctive photography style, the perfect long lens, wide-angle rotating lens, large panoramic view, natural light shooting, etc. . The collaboration between Lubezki and Alejandro González Iñárritu again is completely different from last year's "Birdman" which is limited to the theater. This film has an Odyssey-like rich scene, the magnificent scenery of the Rocky Mountains, and the vast world of human power. The smallness and the greatness of the will blend naturally.
The background of the story is set in the United States in the 19th century. The contradiction between the Indian tribe and the white people at the beginning ignited the first climax. In the mountains and forests, sneak attacks and resistance, chasing and fleeing, in the lens of Lubezki, cruel The western story begins. Xiao Li’s performance only started to be wonderful during the human-bear battle. The perfect CG technology made every hair of the big bear real and abnormal, and Xiao Li’s wailing and resistance appeared extremely weak under the big bear’s breath and coveting. It makes the audience worried. This scene is presented in the form of close-up and close-up. It is full of presence and impact. Just like the movie "Irrevocable", the fragility of mankind meets the brutality of beasts, like rape. People are unwell.
Tom Hardy's role is also very interesting, greedy and fierce, cutting off his scalp after the assault is also due to his own incompleteness, betrayal seems to be a reasonable decision for him. The confrontation and struggle with Xiao Li, and the value conflict with Bridger, such a role seems to be the epitome of the negative side of the pioneering group at that time. The final fate of the Boni people who helped Xiao Li is a reappearance of history.
Like an Odyssey deep into the jungle and snow-capped mountains, it also has the crazy temperament in "Aguirre God's Wrath", coupled with the mystery of the Indian tribes, and even the primitive atmosphere like "Survival from the Wild", this film can be described as Very distinctive and style. The director did not rush to express his thoughts, but put the audience in the bone-to-heart cold, hungry and cold, shrouded in panic like a prey, and desperate to witness his son being killed and betrayed. Among them, to experience the cruel fate of the character. <
Xiao Li's performance is indeed commendable this time. What we see is no longer the overstretched Xiao Li, but Glass the Resurrection. The last 15 minutes of the performance is wonderful, and the close-up at the end is also not tense! good luck!
