Don't trust the people who write movie reviews

Two months ago, it took me three nights of sleep to finish watching Wim Wenders' "Under the Berlin Sky", and I yawned so much that the movie ended and I typed "Please watch the sequel, "A So Far Away". ”, I had a great sense of relief that I had finally completed the task.

However, two months later, after watching "City of Angels", I actually forgot my original suffering and began to dislike the commercialization made by Hollywood - the emotional expression is too direct and too dramatic, Nicolas Cage's eyes are enough Affectionate enough sadness is unbearable weight, and, ah, every floor of the circular corridor of the library is full of angels, looking up at the camera is dark, it is a bit scary ~

So, I started to read " "Under the Sky in Berlin" is good, black and white images, large monologues, and the characters in the long shots seem to walk around aimlessly. These are all literary and artistic, and I keep recalling those exquisite and beautiful shots. , how poetic the wings are in the dream, as if everything is doomed, everything goes to its destination, never know each other, but know each other so well, these are more naked than Nicolas Cage shouting "Love", not to A hundred times a thousand times better?

So please don't trust the people who write reviews, their minds are always changing. Two months ago I called "Under the Berlin Sky" a "hypnotic movie", but two months later I sincerely praised this dull film. It's just, I'm telling the truth, "City of Angels" is just a Hollywood-style love myth, and "Under the Berlin Sky" is a long philosophical poem, sweet but dull, you can't stand it It is too long and profound, but at a certain moment, I suddenly recalled that there were so many lines of poetry across my mind, but it was a kind of touching and light joy of being hit.
