"Scorched Earth" super 140 word film review

Carleton 2022-03-23 09:01:48

This kind of (which?) film is unavoidable and dull, but the airtight posture is very uncomfortable - it can't be called a high pole or a classic, but it is like a heavy pillar, where the pestle is, anyone can Can't even move. Behind/under the power is the cultural vein. The composition of civilization is inclusive of all things, even the dark, harsh and indifferent side of humanity. Came to a peaceful sea of ​​culture? No, it's just a very observational and meticulous picture in the director's hands, with a very clear context and distinct layers. There are too many seas of tranquility like this in the world. The whole film can't be called heartwarming, the rhythm is gentle, and the transmission of values ​​is not ambitious. I can't tell which kind of dullness it belongs to. But it can be seen that under the influence of the director's color, this film is a very barrier-free microscope-like cultural observation film. High-scoring bean friends don’t have to be complacent, and those who appreciate powerlessness don’t have to care about contempt from the other side. The interesting thing about civilization is that observation is only one part of it.
