Making a movie that is defined as black humor inevitably has the two-way purpose of self-deprecating and ridiculing, and finally it comes naturally and is full of jokes.
Nietzsche wrote in the proverbial poem "Inscription on My Door": I live in my own home, / have never learned anything from anyone, / and-- also laugh at every / have not laughed at their own masters. I interpret the poem like this, "I live in my own home", affirming the eternal loneliness of the individual, "never learnt anything from anyone" On the basis of affirming self-loneliness, discovering the self, creating the characteristics of the self An independent image. "And laughing at every master who / did not laugh at himself" expresses the profound connection between self-mockery and ridicule. Nietzsche always ridiculed others with a self-deprecating mood, and his methods were brilliant. And most of the actual combat self-deprecating magic skills are just ridicule. Although this poem expresses the profound connection between self-mockery and ridicule, it is still Nietzsche's laughter.
Some time ago, Hollywood star Paul Walker, who died in a car accident, began to perform very well in this movie, and a series of "fuck" tones sounded heartwarming. This kind of movie has some similarities with the movies I have seen before, such as "Two Smoking Guns", "No Country for Old Men", "Inglourious Basterds", etc. I even think of "Chainsaw" which I haven't dared to watch until now. Horror". Blood, violence, fanaticism, pornography, numbness, indifference and other elements make up a movie that really makes the scalp tingle.
The film also seems to draw on the narrative mechanism of Quentin's "Pulp Fiction", using a few small clips to tell the story, but these stories are a little bit related to a pawnshop, but it's not like "Sneak and Robbery", where several gangs gather To a piece, the whole hodgepodge. In fact, there are many movies imitating Guy Ritchie's narrative technique, such as Chinese director Ning Hao, who is a paranoid.
Since I've seen more absurd and terrible movies than this, this kind of paediatric movie is not surprising. However, there are some brilliant places that are still worth mentioning. For example, the dead faces of many naked women in cages, a town full of disputes and noise, etc. A scene that had a deep impact on me was: Cindy's lover rescued her and her other sisters, put Cindy in the car, and while walking, Cindy's lover told Cindy that she had killed the evil beast John. , Cindy's face changed, and she directly picked up the dagger to kill her lover, and eventually both died. I don't really like a movie where characters die mercilessly at every turn, and die so spectacularly. There is also a scene of rescued naked women. When they imitated Elvis Presley's small role on stage, they were shot in two lines, blankly squeezed the crowd and came to "Elvis", "Elvis" rudely Spit on their stinky bodies, even though everyone was draped in an American flag by an old man when they entered the concert. This originally paralyzed town will completely remind me of movies like "Big Fish", "Wax Museum of Horror", and "Across the Mountain with Eyes", and there is no warning.
At the end of the film, a young man with a bright face took Cindy's ring to the pawnshop and exchanged only 40 yuan with the boss, which is undoubtedly a great irony of the film. During the viewing process, I received a text message from my mother. I didn’t reply directly to the text message, but I called back and chatted with my mother for several minutes. Seeing that she was in good spirits and laughing from time to time, I was very happy. After chatting with my mother, I called my father a few times more politely. First, he talked about his personal affairs, and he taught me a truth: Don't take things for granted. He also asked my cousin how his job was, and I said he was already in the office and the salary was relatively high. I said I would also squat in the office, but at a lower salary. Dad just said lightly, it's good to have a job after graduation. Later, we talked about watching TV again. He didn’t watch TV either. He said that TV has only one meaning: “You love me, I can’t live without you.” Legal Channel and other social news. I said that I was very idle every day, reading and writing, watching movies and staring in a daze. He said let’s just mix it up, and now college students are mixed up, but he also emphasized that I should pay attention to college exams, and I need to hold on to the big ones. Because the phone calls took up a certain amount of time, my eyes didn't keep up with the movie screen for a while, and some details were overlooked, so I couldn't write a satisfactory movie review, which is a pity.
