I really don't feel good

First of all, I'll admit, I didn't know any background information before watching this movie; I bought it on a whim with the Hopkins, Jude Law, and Sean Penn on the cover. It turns out that impulse really is the devil.

Criticize it. The beginning was not bad, Sean Penn fought back after realizing that he was being played with, and shouted a few words of "pin it up", hey, it really has the style of a rogue proletarian. But the further back I go, the less addicted it becomes to me. The last few speeches basically followed the line of Mrs. Xianglin: How much money is the rich man A, we have to get the money back, with the money we can build a lot of hospitals and schools. ... No matter how staunch supporters are, they can't hold back the repeated nagging. Could it be that ordinary people all over the world are easy to fool?

As for the plot, it's pretty boring. One bright line is how Sean Penn settles the impeachment case in front of him; two dark lines are how Jude Law helps his boss Sean Penn get his opponent, Judge Huo, and the other is Jude Law's love-hate entanglement with Fa Xiao. Sure enough, as Teacher He Caitou said, "one gas turns three cleans". Bart, the main line is too little, and the reason for the impeachment case is not clearly explained. It failed. You want to say that Jude Law is the protagonist. I really want to ask, is it not an alien? Your childhood sweetheart's girlfriend is raped by the boss, well, you can bear it, you have a kind, but your biological father is forced to death by yourself, you can also bear it, your daddy coconut, your own coconut, you are too strong.

The hardest ending. Sean Penn, a good cadre who is young and strong and who has a heart for the people of the world, suffered hardships and finally managed to get rid of the impeachment due to widespread suppression. , it turned out to be like this, the picture first turned black and white, indicating that misfortune was coming; the camera framed the bystander Jude Law's face, which was a little bit idiot if it was unexpected or not; followed by a few flashbacks, several people involved Say a few words that seem to be mysterious but are not painful. The whole feeling to me is to put on a conspiracy theory posture, as if to trick other people's sister informants to impeach the assassins who passed the test. All the murders were designed by someone, but if you think about it carefully, there is really no contact person to cut you down. It's completely feudal thinking. The inferiority complex drives the brain crazy. The most inexplicable thing is that the director arranged for the blood of Sean Penn and the assassins to flow together on the Louisiana logo at the end, and finally blended together, as if to say that the hard-won democratic system was exchanged by countless martyrs throwing their heads and shedding their blood. At that time, there were no lines, no voice-overs, no long takes, no director comments, big brother, what are you trying to do? Is it just to echo Sean Penn's "I'm here to bleed" line at the beginning of the movie? Brother, you are not so shallow, are you?

Finally, I would like to add that Hopkins' silver-haired look makes me feel sad Regret.

Thanks to Teacher He Caitou for providing quite detailed background information on this movie. Reading the information is more enjoyable than watching the movie, and congratulations to the meat lovers and teacher that they are finally safe and can eat meat.

All the King's Men quotes

  • Willie Stark: Time brings all things to light, I trust it so.

  • Jack Burden: The friend of your youth is the only friend you'll ever have. For he doesn't really see you. He sees in his mind a face which doesn't exist anymore, speaks a name... Spike, Bud, Red, Rusty... Jack... that belongs to that now nonexistent face. He's still the young idealist you used to be, still sees good and bad in black and white and men as sinners or saints but never both and feels superior in the knowledge that you no longer can distinguish the two. That's what drives you to it. To try to stick the knife in. There is a kind of snobbery in failure like the twist to the mouth of a drunk.
