I haven't seen such a clear and handsome Pete for a long time. I heard that this movie is the peak of his appearance.
Throughout the three-hour movie, I was still fascinated by Anthony Hopkins' father. It is precisely because of his soulful interpretation that this movie, which looks a little silly and absurd, becomes so tear-jerking.
There are several parts of the film that are particularly well-acted. First, when the father and the young daughter are teaching her the concept of love on the plane, Hopkins asks her if she loves Jules, and he hopes that she can find her true love. Here Hopkins completely separates his chairmanship from his father, who is particularly delicate in showing his tenderness to his daughter. The second is the young man played by Brad Pitt who picks up his young daughter in a coffee shop. This episode is the epitome of Pitt's classic prodigal son, and his charming appearance quickly touched the hearts of the heroine and our fans, and The scene where they walked out of the coffee shop and turned back to each other is also an amazing highlight of the whole film. The third is that Hopkins talks to the god of death in the study, which leads to the whole movie. It can be said that the movie should be at least a work of 8.8 points or more, because no matter from the logic, conception or the acting skills of each actor, it is impeccable. But the film seems to have just begun. After that, the extremely lengthy and vulgar scenes were only supported by Hopkins' personal performance. I think the director's focus on this film should be the family relationship between father and daughter. And the sixth sense of life and death should also be the fate between the god of death and the father. If these things are to pave the way for the strange love between the god of death and the little daughter, then this movie will be very cheap in my heart, unfortunately, The director still expressed his ambiguous feelings in the three-hour long film. It can be said that every actor's acting skills are excellent, but compared to the good film that feels good after watching it, this is a good film. The film as a whole still lacks a more focused idea. Although the director has paid great attention to the details of the characters and scenes, and the soundtrack is quite first-class, the overall impression presented to the audience is not shocking, more like the death of the gods deliberately. The feeling of playing with the human game, so it deviates from the original intention of the movie, which leads to the idea that some people will feel stupid after watching it.
