Not a great biopic, but it can move people's hearts

I resisted the urge and didn't dare to give five stars, but this biopic really exceeded expectations. The director of Burst Drummer is still very powerful. The opening shot made people dizzy and thought it was a hardcore cool sci-fi. As a result, the dull and small pattern in the next two hours returned to expectations. Large sections of family trivia, large sections of silent silence. Originally, I can get Samsung at most for those who like to play. But after watching it quietly, I was really impressed by the director. Like the last moon landing, family members meet according to the routine, not gongs and drums, firecrackers, banners, or at least hugging each other and crying and letting go of the past. Everyone is happy. I sincerely hope that the directors of domestic dramas will watch this passage: the last two people stared at each other through the glass for more than a minute without saying a single line. From beginning to end, there were no tears, no smiles, no forgiveness, no touching. Commander High silently pressed a kiss on the glass with his hand. His wife was stunned for a long time and pressed her hand on the glass to express her response. Finish. That part deserves a crazy star. Another sigh of relief is that the director of the well-known moon landing story with such a positive energy as the American flag dares not to shoot! Directly spend a lot of time shooting Armstrong standing in front of the lunar crater quietly in a daze?... To the director's boldness and empire If you dare not shoot and plant the national flag, you will definitely not pass the censorship, and you will be scolded to death by patriots...

Thanks to the weakness of the imperialist paper tigers, we can still see such a restrained and delicate movie full of happiness.
