Last night, I sat in front of the screen for two hours without blinking. I watched another important movie starring ORLI since The Lord of the Rings-"The Kelly Party." Please pat a brick
1. The overall impression of the film
In all fairness, this is not a successful film. An epic film that was supposed to make all men stunned and passionate, a huge production that was supposed to be exciting, with white knives going in and out with red knives, and a blockbuster that was supposed to set off a box office frenzy, but it was because of the director's perfunctory effort. Things and thoughts are unclear, and a boring and mediocre work is abruptly formed. There is no heart-shaking grandeur, the plot lacks ups and downs, and the rhythm is procrastinated. Although there are many characters, there are few vivid pens in the depiction, especially at the end. The climax of the gunfight, the chaos and hasty facts, was discouraging. No wonder that when it premiered in Australia, fans criticized it relentlessly for too many loopholes, and it was an out-and-out failure. I even think that the film has the following flaws:
1. The director lacks deep excavation and ideological sublimation of the theme of the film. Kelly is a well-known character in Australia. His tragic and majesty forcing Liangshan to fall into the grass is indeed a good subject for filming, but the director failed to describe in depth the unfair treatment suffered by Irish immigrants in Australia at the end of the nineteenth century and the true cause of Ned Kelly’s tragic life. The deep-seated social cause of "the officials force the people to rebel, the people have to rebel", the 7,000-word complaint letter written by Ned Kelly, who best reflects the theme of the film, has also become a painless prop. Therefore, it dilutes the theme, so that the whole film cannot produce a touching artistic strength, nor can it empathize and sympathize with the protagonist's destiny.
2. The character creation failed. Due to the director's inaccurate grasp of the inner world of the characters, the protagonist in the film is blurred and pale, unable to produce contagious personality charm. After watching the movie, even Ned Kelly's appearance does not have a clear impression. The film also lacks a detailed portrayal of the characters' personalities. The relationship between the main characters is very scribbled, and the characters generally do not have a solid spiritual foundation. The sheriff played by Jeffrey Rush is the most bleak and dull character in the film, and hardly contributes to the plot. Movies of the same theme, such as "Brave Heart" and "Binxu", although there are aspects of beautification and exaggeration, due to the accurate grasp of the character's character and the unique role modeling of Shen Yun, they have become the best among them. There are these magnificent jewels. Before, "The Kelly Party" really lacked a little aura and connotation.
3. The rhythm is out of control, the plot is dull, the color is dull, and the lack of boldness. To shoot such a magnificent epic film, you must have a moderately relaxed, bright and powerful rhythm, the interlaced use of large scenes and long shots, bright and clear picture quality and ups and downs of background music, but the film has no elements in this aspect. The overall mess and looseness left the audience at a loss.
In short, although the film also has a finishing touch worth mentioning, such as Ned Kelly’s childhood saving warmth plot as the title of the film, and the end of the film with the commendable memory segment, the fatal injury of the film has become Irreparable shortcomings.
2. Comment on Ollie's performance
To be honest, Ollie’s performance gave me a surprise, and he was the only bright spot in the dimness of the whole film. After watching the film, what left the deepest impression was the image he portrayed-Joe Barn, cynical, unruly, loyal to Ned Kelly, two-sided, witty, brave, sincere, sincere and flexible. God's eyes are always sly and unpredictable. Because he is the most popular among the Kelly members, that is, the most romantic, I was afraid that I could not accept it at first, but after watching the film, I found that these did not damage his image at all, but it made people feel a little pure and innocent. cute.
The most commendable thing is that Ollie did not act pretentiously in the film, contrary to the stickiness of the Lord of the Rings and the youthfulness of the Pirates of the Caribbean. His performance was very free, relaxed, and natural. The final scene of drinking in danger was also very vivid. The ground highlights the character's bold and unrestrained personality, so that we do not underestimate the British handsome's drama skills.
After watching this film, I look forward to those films with Ollie as the protagonist. I hope there, I can see him release all his acting talent and potential. I heard that a producer is lobbying Ollie to play 007, and the voice of veto is endless. I sometimes feel that no one has given 007 an absolute standard framework. If 007 is always an image, this declining character will definitely enter a dead end. On the contrary, Ollie’s full of vitality and vitality may inject new life into this old-fashioned image and create a completely different hero. Look at Ollie’s naughty eyes and harmless smiles of humans and animals. Just know.
