The first film watched at the North Film Festival, the audience thunderous and cheered.
Before I went, I set up a flag. It’s such a magnificent thing to watch movies all over the city, and I have to leave a mark on the goose, and write a 2,000-word film review for each movie. After watching this film, I feel...hummmm...to break my promise. Typing on the phone, what to say, just say a few words...haha.
The whole film is a big platter. At the beginning of a regular youth movie, it then enters the B-level film alien party, then to the "500 Days with Summer"-style literary and artistic MV, then to the punk bar PK in the inspirational film routine, mixed with the MV for the special effects of five hairs, and then to the very Aunt Nicole Kidman from the British film leads the way through the customs and talks about life with aliens, then sublimates values, and finally ends the romantic movie.
The setting of aliens is very Asimov. A group of old immortals look at their offspring like dung, while they are afraid of death while guarding the barren planet resources and waiting to die. They also find many rational explanations for themselves, making them very ritual, and Funny and stupid. The specific method is to follow the designers of the 1980s, Martin Margiela, Alexander McQueen, Antwerp Six Gentlemen... Glossy coat, cold tailoring, white mask, donkey hoof high heels, etc., good-looking or good-looking , But with the nagging demeanor, it makes people sweat. When only Can Xing appeared on the stage, the director seemed to have deliberately carried out positive modeling, but I felt more like paying tribute to Milana Canionello, the costume designer of "A Clockwork Orange".
The male lead is a bit like Paul McCartney when he was young, with a bit of Benjamin's color in the "graduate". In short, he is ignorant and longing, sincere, kind and faintly glowing. A very qualified male lead. Although I am quite disgusted that he uses contemporary earth values to judge the survival choices of aliens, this is a problem of the whole movie, not a problem of the male lead.
The leading actress, Elle Fanning, is beautiful, not a good actor. Her character is a mixture of angels, robots, princesses, and the girl next door. The consistent part is closed and naive. This type of person has a large number of jewels in front, and her performance is very average. As an alien immortal, her sense of the earth is too heavy, and she wants to please the people of the earth in the performance too much. It is also the anxiety of a popular actress. Relatively speaking, Can Xing's role is much more vivid, and she is also more qualified to assume the identity of that rebel. But if the relationship between Can Sing and the second man becomes the main line of the movie, it will really deepen, and it will not be enough for popcorn.
Punk elements can only be used as decorations on cakes. Nowadays, punk is not a major school. The old band members mentioned in the film may not have the strength to stay asleep after watching a 100-minute film, so no one raises any objections. I'm not happy anyway. How did punk become a symbol of love and freedom in the film? Take a step back and say, which form of music born from the bottom has never represented freedom? I believe that if a female alien meets Commander Gao, she will be able to play Lala Land, and if she meets Wu Yifan, she will be able to participate in Chinese hip-hop...but what about love? Who does punk love? Punk will not point fingers at the values of another world, punk loves who and who!
The most punk part of the whole film is that Nicole Kidman said to Chan Xing: "I don't have sex anymore, my sex life is outdated." She is really not suitable for this role. This performance put her from a negative score. Pulled back more than zero points.
In the final analysis, this movie is a "Roman Holiday" with intensive gimmicks. Thinking of this nature is quite frustrating (no one can film a "Roman Holiday"). Desire is lasting and deep, but love can only be superficial and fleeting. The otaku and female aliens on the earth did not have time to get to know each other. They spent 48 hours romantically inspired and sheltered by punk before they broke up. Not greedily, it's good too. As the film approaches the end, I am really worried that the female aliens will stay or come back. Then this film is not a superficial issue, it will end up with a lie.
So thank the director for maintaining this chicken thieves and restraint throughout the high Yamato desperately showing off.
