There is a reason to doubt whether Heath Ledger is indeed, because seeing the two big names of Mickey Locke and Diane Lane, the background time of the movie seems to be 2006 again, and he is very likely to act. But it's not. This guy named Joseph Gordon-Levitt really didn't know him before, but he played quite well.
Frankly speaking, although the director is Michael Mann, the film is really not very good. It feels like a good script was broken by him. Something that should have a lot of connotation or plot. It was made by him like a second- and third-rate crime. Film, so much that I didn't understand a lot of things from beginning to end. Why didn't Mickey Lock kill Joseph Gordon-Levitt in the first place? Why not kill Diane Lane in the first place? By the end of watching, there were a lot of questions. I always feel that the characters above are either very civilized or very neurotic (such as Joseph Gordon-Levitt). After watching them, they will be deleted directly as a bad movie. Lost. But there is a standard for the quality of a movie, that is, whether it is worthy of scrutiny and aftertaste. Just now, it does have a bit of flavor. Although it is not a good movie, it can't be said to be a bad movie. Like the previous feelings of "Taxi Driver" and "Jackie Brown", although the aftertaste of these two films is not getting stronger and more refreshing, the aftertaste of "Shoot" is somewhat worthwhile .
The title of the film is "Shoot and Kill", which actually misleads the audience. In fact, the essence of the movie should be the spirit of the Black Hawk played by Mickey Locke. I personally think that if you replace so many close-up shots to show the actors' acting skills with most of the long-range shots, and add more long shots instead of frequent shots like second- and third-rate shootout movies, the effect should be better. In fact, the man played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt is an orphan, which is a portrayal of Black Hawk. One of the two brothers of Black Hawk was killed by himself and the other was in prison. He returned to the Indian colony and wanted to see his long-unvisited grandma, grandma. He had already passed away, at this moment he was completely alone. But when he tried to find warmth with his fellow Indian, the lame Indian, he was rejected. (If the cripple knew what Black Hawk did before, then he died later and he was not worthy of sympathy at all.) Black Hawk felt that he had nowhere to go, and a job he thought he had done very well was scolded by the employer. Black The eagle said that I killed the woman because she saw my face, and the black eagle had been a killer for a lifetime. His principle was that all people who saw his face when he was on the mission were to be killed. So his principle was fucked by the ruthless employer again, and the old man was full of frustration. Therefore, the little gangster played by Joseph Gordon-Levitt was indeed lucky to rob the Black Hawk car at this time. The Black Hawk is out of the current low mood. Qi, saved his life and took him to give himself a pastime. Later, I really bothered him and shot him down.
The failure of this movie is not serious or serious. The relationship between the couple is as serious as Black Hawk's scene. Who is it for the audience to look at? It's a family ethics movie to watch the couple, and a gangster movie to watch Black Hawk, so that it makes the two sides the same, and the audience does not feel that it is nondescript. Carmen, played by Black Hawk and Diane Lane, is not in line with common sense twice. For the first time, Black Hawk is so close with only a glass of glass, why not just shoot her directly? The second time Carmen took a shotgun and Black Hawk with both hands in her pockets and walked towards her. She closed the door and hid in the room without hitting the first shot. . . . If the first shot is not fired, won't you make the second shot?
So it can only be answered in a very perverted way: Black Hawk fell in love with Carmen at first sight. He had at least three chances to kill Carmen directly without any action.
And this love at sight is a small excitement in Black Hawk's heart. People like the Black Hawk don’t have very strong and direct emotions. After decades of gang and killing lives, he cannot have a love for children, but he may be childlike, so he wants to go back and visit. Grandma, taking Joseph Gordon-Levitt as a little brother, has a special affection for Carmen, all of which comes from his desire to have a real feeling. The psychological state of the role of the Black Hawk is not very good. It is not good for the director and the actors. If it is not good, it will be incomprehensible. The most typical one is Brad Pitt in "Death of the Sharpshooter". As Jesse, these people who kill more easily than eating noodles, and those who are more accustomed to playing with guns than eating utensils, the final death is very stupid. This stupidity, all out of their loneliness, out of their delusion that they want to have a true emotional self, mistrusted some people. The real thing to do is to kill without blinking, not overnight. And to achieve this level of killing without blinking, you must stifle your feelings about life and anyone.
But the Black Hawk is a person who abides by his own principles of survival. For example, anyone who sees himself killing someone must be killed, and anyone who makes himself unhappy will be killed, so there is the death of that woman, the Indian lame and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. . These people don’t know how to be 100% vigilant when dealing with people like Black Hawk, because they are not facing a person, but a cold-blooded animal that can kill itself in an instant. When does this animal want to leave? Killing depends on its own momentary mood. Facing it, a little relaxation means death. The Black Hawk is indeed old, he wants to put some affection on Joseph Gordon-Levitt's girlfriend or Carmen. Joseph Gordon-Levitt killed his girlfriend out of jealousy, and insulted Carmen in every possible way, so he also became the ghost of the Black Hawk. This is because he can't see the matter and seek his own death. He didn't understand that the reason that Black Hawk brought him was entirely because he had the shadow of Black Hawk's own little brother, and once Black Hawk felt that he was fundamentally different from his little brother, Black Hawk would kill him without hesitation. To put it in a Qingdao dialect, he couldn't stare at him.
Was there any regret when the Black Hawk finally died? I think it’s just a bit regretful to shoot late, but I won’t have too much regret. No matter how many more people he kills, it doesn’t make any sense to his assassin career. He wants to simply find someone every time. Putting aside his feelings, he got the result of treachery. He was alone, lonely like an empty bottle drifting in the ocean, nobody care about him. Perhaps let us viewers who are not very cold-hearted see that he used his own death to save a marriage where love is still alive. It's a bit of a good death, but compared with the boundless loneliness that Black Hawk brings due to old age, this paragraph There is also love, marriage, and we finally feel that this movie is a little bit better in our hearts, what is it?
He didn't kill people, but loneliness.
