Simple but not simple - "King Kong is not bad"

Mylene 2022-03-20 09:01:18

Roughly read some criticism (don't look at the praise text, because the praise of Quentin is generally very passionate and frenetic as I thought), some people said that it was a black bloody violent road crash In the end, I watched a group of girls chatting for a long time. The real black bloody violent road crash scene is only a pitiful point. I agree with both hands and feet. I didn't see how many tons of tomato juice was advertised before, a flying jade leg and a broken head just left me feeling unsatisfied, but although I agree with this point of view, I am not happy to say it. Because "King Kong Is Not Bad" is really like an advertisement for a certain men's clothing, simple but not simple.

I know that a lot of nonsense is Quentin's style and his personal hobby, but I can't pretend to understand that I deeply understand the deep meaning of these people's conversations or that a certain sentence they say has a bearing on this person's destiny. What kind of hints, I only know, in addition to the FUCKING that is always energetic, at the end, when the three beauties beat the Bian stand-in MIKE, my blood boiled to the extreme. How can it be so cool? I couldn't help but ask myself...

Obviously, the first half of the film is about men's aggression against women, whether it's the glamorous lap dance or the impeccable collision of King Kong, I feel very resentful. When the fair-haired beauty begged the stand-in MIKE to let her out of the car but was killed alive, I knew that the impact here was not only reflected in the picture, but also deeply impacted the strong mind of a female audience like me... That A beautiful leg was dangling outside the car and my heart was twitching and twitching. Sure enough, King Kong was not bad at full power, and that jade leg said goodbye to its owner.

However, perhaps Quentin, like the intimidating guy he played in "Pulp Fiction", finally returned all the power of women in the second half. I was so nervous at first that I thought it was another murder that was announced beforehand. The classic car racing all the way flew over the layers of American fields, and the life of the woman who played the Hanging Man was about to die several times. But she was alive, so she laughed and they were alive, picked up the pole, and got in the car. This time, it's the women at full throttle. Very clever is that gun, a gunshot wound coupled with the collision of revenge all the way, the stand-in MIKE finally fell into the hands of the three women. So it's a group beating.

The moment he fell, I was so happy that I was going crazy. Quentin's filming was so simple that he didn't even bother to give a slightly twisted plot, so he let the women directly fight the stand-in MIKE. But it's really not easy. First of all, there are beauties. Probably CULT movies and unparalleled beauties always make people want to stop. The footage is intentionally rough, and there's a wonderful black-and-white shot that feels smooth and natural overall. There is a raw pleasure.

Anyway, it's a typical Quentin flake. Either love or hate. No one will read it and say "I think it's okay, that's it", so this is considered an extreme success, right? It is better to say that the explanation of King Kong is not bad is: encountering a powerful woman, King Kong is not bad is the proof of the death of a perverted man.

    I finally saw that although the birds prefer the horror planet, the climax of this film is indeed very high~

    Talking + rock music + car running and crashing + the last man's wailing and women's joyous and dripping sound. Female, male!
