2. I felt that the writer/director must be pretty self-indulgent to make such
a movie...but I didn't want to say so until I saw the special feature...
you know it's ok to be a loser, but to be a self indulgent loser is something
else...
3. the 2 characters are like 19, no 40...it's horrible to see their wrinkles
when they act stupid...
4. are they trying to say how different the 2 guys are? got it at the beginning,...
no depth after it at all.like those Prose board Chinese student stories...
5. hollywood writers /directors making movies about writers/actors/directors is
so narrow and boring
haha, i'm so in the mood!
It's amazing to see other people's reviews. Most people gave it a high rating, and all professional commentators gave it A or A-
, but those who didn't like it were very harsh, and they came up with F, D- and the like.
Here's one who scolds this movie for wank, haha:
-----
Felix S. gave it a 1:
This movie was a total... well, wank. I can clearly see why it appealed to
critics, but they've got to realise they're not always the desired audience!
The movie was dull, un-ending, and romanticised the character's flaws, without
any justification.
----
The french Destroyer gave it a2:
I wanted to like it, I really did but the main obstacle was a character that
should go down as one of the most insipid in film history. Miles is an utterly
wretched creation who if anyone met him in real life, would be dead by now. He
cheats on his wife and then has the cheek to whine when she leaves him, he is
snobby about wine - a subject that is utterly pointless in itself, he covers
up the fact that his friend is cheating on his fiancee and they get away with
it . To top it all off he 'gets the girl' despite being a pathetic, whimpy
narcicist who brings trouble on himself. Instead of ridiculing the upper class
pissing contest that is wine tasting, the film tries to make it seem like a
worth while use of your time. The film is however, very well shot especially
as far as lighting is concerned.

I'm in a very high mood now, and I'm going to talk nonsense about this kind of "loser movie"
as today's rhetoric
. I know that most normal people like this sideways, so you who like this movie are normal people
, I am not normal.
The most popular theme of this independent film is
the popular amateur writing of loser films like prose, gossip and YY's loser temperament are also the most common
such creations, which do not require too much energy/money investment, the only special requirement , is
an infinite love for myself and myself . Once I wake up one morning, when I brush my teeth, I suddenly think of myself and the world, and I am
moved to cry by the dyna mic in between, and the urge to create begins.
Throughout the independent loser movies, adaptation is a
story about a loser script writer and his younger brother, a woman, etc. , about schimt is an old loser's sad old age with tragedy and bad jokes, garden state
is a loser in his 20s The story of the actor returning to his hometown and tossing with a group of high school classmates who are now basically losers. The
american splendor is a small staff / cartoonist useless useless life and his own life modeled on painting Man
painting. I've even seen a living from the material point of view, although less loser, but spiritual life is very loser predominantly female
movie angle, forgot the name. The most memorable thing is the character's huge mansion in California, and a female character in it
hand-painted a bunch of new age-like paper and took it to the town gift shop to sell it as a gift wrap, which is incredible.
loser movie In other words, can be said to tell their own stories of ordinary people, focus on the people most trivial per
the chronological day. Some are obvious, talking about the playwright or director his / its own giant familiar with so-called ordinary people it is
something, some little less narcissistic, is the story of ordinary people their own brothers and sisters, Mom and Dad neighbors. The latter does not say
, This one is the life of a Hollywood writer, and I have to strongly despise it. Please, you are a writer, can you
be a little professional and write something to stimulate your mind? You have a pen in your hand and your eyes are looking at life, can you look a
little further?
Moreover, the writers written by these writers are still always super depressed look, most divorced, divorce reasons not
clear, or at least a strong woman wife must be very happy marriage after divorce, and then the male loser in this episode in the
face, repetitious, turn Going back and forth, in the entire 2-hour movie, with a bitter face and two dark circles under the eyes, trying to
show you the depth of life. He also stretched out his hand and tried to revolutionize you, forcing you to laugh as if you had to laugh. It seems that when you laugh, the
depth of life becomes deeper. This movie gives birth to a little depth from the blandness. It's
like we really can't stand the prose version of the female author. again and again, with empty boring language, and full of intoxicated
to describe her to go to the bar to wearing certain color clothes and drink a drunk, like too much hard work to show in the film
's / director felt Loser details with such a bit of sentiment are also disgusting.
A seemingly/self-consciously profound middle school English teacher and amateur writer, divorced, living in a small apartment,
driving around to taste famous wines while on vacation , explaining doorways seriously, posing and playing golf on the peaceful and beautiful golf course, This
is the hero of a loser movie. In the film, the author/director makes the characters eloquently and repeatedly explain the red wine tasting method,
which is a golden thing in the high-end society, and tries to use the unreasonable 250 optimism of the second male to set off
the profound and harmonious appearance of the first male loser. Tenderness is used, the force is too strong and uneven, and the characters and plot are inexplicable.
The only explanation can only be: the
writer/director is happy!
Just imagine, this author/director spends so much money and energy to make a film for half a year, to what extent does he (they) have to be
able to carry out such an obvious contrivance to the end?
If the starting point of a loser film is gossip, it is gossip spirit "to explore the life of the flash from the ordinary meaning of" like, that
it, many of whom are part of it, to play in the growth on the basis of gossip, YY has become narcissistic.
YY can be used by anyone, it still takes a certain amount of courage to write and post a prose, or in other words, it requires YY and narcissism to a certain extent. Spent
on hundreds of millions of US knife, spent about 1/100 of his life, the use of large classes of men, made into a film, also greeted the whole
people of the country to buy a ticket to watch, go out and buy dvd, and since this is the super YY Advanced stage of love.
I forgot to mention earlier, there is another movie that makes me nauseous. The title of the movie seems to be stonebook or something. This is
a writer / director / producer personally pitched in middle-aged men, talking about his childhood read a book, giant moving now to find
all over the square of the disappeared to find out. This writer/director/producer/male star is a typical middle-aged l
oser, who claims to be very deep. At the beginning of the film, he was at home, and his wife was working hard in the yard to tidy up the garden in the distance. He
said, oh , that's my wife, she doesn't want to show up. I thought at the time, that people think you are ashamed! Throughout the film, he was
looking for this dispensable writer, described the book as extremely great, and interviewed a lot of the writer's old colleagues and so on
, anyway In the end, I didn't understand what the book was about to make him do this. My
basic respect for the author/director/producer/male star is completely shattered in this scene: he finds the author's original manuscript in the library,
borrowed it in the name of the movie , of course , and faces the camera I flipped through excitedly, flailing, flailing, and pointing while flipping.
. It is hard for me to imagine that a person would be so reckless and careless about the manuscripts of a writer he really admires. He
didn't really admire this writer at all, and he didn't really want to photograph this writer, he wanted to photograph himself.
There is no loser movie looks good point of it
I personally like about schimt still a little. Because of warmth.
I still respect the garden state, because it loses a bit "degree", there are
bright colors of natalie portman in the gray , and there are good music.
Maybe, make you feel, at least, writer / director is not 100% in the embrace narcissistic mirror, neither clumsy to beautify the image of the main character did not
have to let him dig booger sense to you giggle then known as the universe.
Falling in love with the word loser is as dangerous as falling in love with any other stereotype name such as tycoon, elite, etc.,
and as easy as falling in love with any of them. Lovers see Xi Shi, fall in love, and it's over. loser becomes
the whole of life and creation. Nothing new, arrogant and domineering, prose is popular for writing and programming and starbucks, and
IT blind loser who understands poetry and loves thinking. Hollywood independent film is popular for making thoughtful, in-depth and wine-tasting losers.
Long live loser, long live, long live!
