Jude Law is as handsome as ever. It can be said that it will almost ruin the film. For the first time, I realized the destructive power of the actor's excessive shining appearance: because he is the protagonist of this film, and it is difficult for people to see his beautiful face. Look away for a little understanding of the content of the film.
Sean Penn’s performance is completely excellent. Similarly, Hopkins, Kate, and Mark Ruffalo’s personal performance are all at the standard, so the whole film is like a slumped car, and the plot arrangement and editing are like potholes. After a slow acceleration, the film began to rush from left to right like a roller coaster, and no one can control it. Every time the director’s use of Oscar ambition-level montages is like a sudden stop on a roller coaster, each actor explodes more and more. As the car deviated from the center of gravity, Jude Law, who was navigating, was disoriented from start to finish, and the car finally flew into the sky lightly. This is entirely a matter of mechanics.
Let’s start with what the film originally looked like, a very simple story, an idealist, while watching the fall of another idealist, recalling and experiencing himself from innocence to numbness to igniting hope to again. Numb life. Hey, we have heard too much of this kind of story, haven’t we? Not only is the story clichéd, the role set is clichéd, the drama conflict is clichéd, but even flashbacks and inter-narrative techniques are too clichéd. A vase filled with classic labels. .
Of course, if you don't mind these cliches, the acting skills in the film are all eye-catching.
