All performances are worse than that hat, Reivew on The Soloist

It is said that "The Soloist" is a masterpiece of the Olympics. From the perspective of the lineup, it is directed by the British director of "Atonement" Joe White, plus the popular star Robert Downey Jr. and Oscar winner Jamie Foxx to help out, the theme is also Oscar's most popular realism + inspiration + eccentric genius, indeed has the ability to win awards. But this time it seems that the director's transformation is a little urgent. The film mainly has two characters: "Los Angeles Times" reporter Steve Lopez (Robert Downey Jr.) and Nasa, a music geek with schizophrenia. Neil Ayers (played by Jamie Foxx), if you can start with only one line, peel off the cocoon, and unfold it layer by layer, the effect may be better, but the director wants to take care of it, and Jamie Foxx's line naturally cannot be placed However, the popular star Robert Downey Jr. can't be taken lightly. It can be seen that he has added a lot of scenes for him, and he wants to put some middle-class pain in this movie, but a movie that reflects the middle class. There are too many in Hollywood, and they are not in line with the latest Oscar trend. Let us see who wins and who loses in the end, whether it is Joe White who leads the new Oscars, or Oscar ruthlessly abandoning him in his head. Finally, to be honest, I am more optimistic about the latter possibility, because I feel that this film does not go beautifully on this road. . .
Robert Downey Jr.'s performance is a little disappointing. In fact, it may be satisfactory for ordinary actors to do so, but as a master of acting skills who has been honed for many years, he finally has "Iron Man" soaring into the sky. Now he can choose almost all the roles, but his performance is very average, which is a bit unreasonable. All his performances in the film are not as attractive as that hat. . .
