So I feel that I want to write this first film review, not to discern anything, but to write out my own feelings and write them into Haojing's current afterthoughts.
Is the script's story cliché? It's really vulgar, how can I ask which little love movie is not vulgar? "500 Days with Summer" or "Pumping" or "Notebook of Love"? For this type of film, the simpler the narrative, the easier it is to dig out the connotation of the story.
Yan is too bad? It's really bad. The actor's face is full of flesh, and the heroine smiles well, but it is indeed an indisputable fact that the face is full of freckles and imprecise features on the face. But most of us, as ordinary people, see when the heroes and heroines in the movie are smiling, does that simple face make you a little bit of the person you were around you when you were young?
Is this movie good? It may not be that good, but it is by no means such a bad movie.
This film is different from the previous American youth films of the same type. Its narrative rhythm is very slow and the story is relatively plain. It is easy for boys and girls to not want to watch half of it. The biggest impression that gave me was that the character setting of this film was extremely non-American. He put two types of uncommon American teenagers on the screen. The cores of these two personality made me feel extremely orientalized-yes, Just forbearance.
In American romance films, whether it is a fresh or youthful campus type, the emotions of the characters are usually exploded: Saying loudly that I love you, because I love you, what incredible things have been done. Most of them burst into the audience's heart through sight and music.
However, the male protagonist who came to watch the film, the so-called romantic boy, just doesn’t want to hurt or be hurt by others, and he always has the idea of a father in his heart; the female protagonist of this film has never seen hundreds of Western movies. Good girl, she came from ancient China.
The film didn't even render their combination too much. It was very peaceful, as if two people saw each other tens of thousands of light years away, and came together naturally in the turbulent flow of people. The audience was not too excited, there were no ups and downs, and there was no plot conflict between the male lead, the male lead’s ex-girlfriend, and the female lead.
The surroundings are so plain, plain and familiar, as if the person who had embraced in the youthful time is on his side.
The only scene in the film that makes a strong reaction is the moment when the heroine was hit by a car, but the script did not say that she died and made the hero regret the life-long bloody plot, whether it was abandoned by her father or killed her girlfriend in a car accident. These things are not so fierce, on the contrary, like most people-have experienced some misery and misfortune-but not so terrible.
Until the last time the male lead hugs his mother and weeps, we don't know that no matter how high or big the barriers in our hearts are, you still can't resist the harm.
What's more terrifying than injury is always being in an injured state.
So the male protagonist finally understands that in the current good times, we must not only embrace the good present, but also have the courage to embrace the future.
The best part about "now" is there's another one tomorrow. In the
end, the hero drove to Philadelphia to find the heroine. The heroine's complex expression interpreted the ending to the audience.
This kind of blank space is usually interesting. After all, the ideas that a movie can bring to you are limited. In the end, you should choose how to deal with the things described in the movie.
However, I feel that the heroine is already looking for a new love~~
Otherwise, how can I bring up my question~ The so-called good times are basically just passing by.
In short, I think the biggest highlight of this film is that it expresses another character and another story in American Teens. It is not completely homogenized with previous genre films, and it has been recognized by American teenagers (Ratings: 7.5/10 from 14,466 users ). Its story may not be novel, its protagonist may not be beautiful, but it brings us a brand new experience of youth films.
And its connotation, because of its deep still water, still needs to be interpreted by every one of us who were once young or in the middle of a teenager.
And this is what I think is the most interesting movie.
