Today we will not talk about the historical background of the character Capone, just talk about this movie. (PS: If there is something wrong with the understanding, it is definitely because I can't bear the second brush only after reading it once)
Different from the gangster movies I used to watch, there is no shopping, no underworld trading, no gang formation, and nothing to do. What's there? An old madman had hallucinations and incontinence. In the end, he got into a madness inexplicably and picked up a submachine gun.
I understand that the director wants the audience to feel the contrast between the old life of the gangster and the shading of the sky when he was young. He wants to show the contradiction in Capone's heart, but I feel that the director's skill is never released. I feel that the crime in the introduction is almost changed to a horror. Let’s just talk about it. The protagonist has hallucinations because of guilt, struggling on the edge of collapse, and such an old-fashioned plot will be used up. The director still uses it persistently. The effect? Apart from making Tang Laoshi look uglier, more sloppy, and more neurotic, the character of the other aspects of the character has not been shaped at all.
However, the movie is really bad, and most of the director’s films can only be passed with the two combined ratings, but it can be seen that the director is still extremely talented. There are a few paragraphs that remind me of "The Shining" and "The Confinement". island". Moreover, the director’s personal style is quite strong and I don’t know much about him, but when I watched Capone, I felt like Dai Hanhan’s "Out of Control", and then I took a look at the director's introduction and found that "Out of Control" was also shot by him. The tones of the two films' screens, the horror that is interspersed from time to time, the unreasonable cards, and the director's level of ugliness about the movie's leading role are exactly the same. Several episodes in the movie are like falling into a crocodile pool. The little balloon of an illegitimate child is indeed very creative to quit smoking and carrots, but it does have little effect on the theme of the movie.
Well, my own level is limited and I can only understand so much. I wrote this only because Tang Lao wet and ugly made me sleepless. I really wanted to complain. At the beginning, I said that this movie could help Tang Lao wet to win the prize. I was so anxious to find resources all over the Internet to endure Tang Lao wet for more than an hour. Pretending to be crazy and stupid.
