Talking about the atypical movie "Murder in Lost Town"

What makes a gold collar pick up...WHATEVER?
While watching the drama, I suddenly remembered Bai Yansong's very low words. The original scene is that in 2015, there was a massive shooting in Suning County, Henan Province. The case caused 4 deaths and 5 injuries. Two police officers including the political commissar of Suning County Public Security Bureau sacrifice. When reporting, Bai blamed the police for not showing mercy to a man who carried a gun, with a bitter tone: "What caused this old man in his fifties to carry a gun?"
If you have to ask this question every time you see a criminal , to go back to his poor childhood, his sad family background and poor surrounding environment, his pitiful educational experience, and those who squeezed him, bullied him and humiliated him in his life and finally drove him to the road of crime. sigh...
so after this man has committed a crime, shouldn't the police go after the people who kicked him in his life instead of him? How will the rule of law be realized by some people?
Taking advantage of this sudden memory, I once again express my contempt for Bai Yansong, who has not yet apologized for this!

George Clooney obviously doesn't have the time to ponder these things! Criminals are criminals!
Matt Damon is such a faint, primitive criminal who may pass you by on the street. He is middle-aged, fat, neat, honest, simple, trustworthy, and has an enviable The position is the pillar of the company and the family.
However, he has another side, just to satisfy his own desires (some original criminals are for revenge and vent their anger), and when they are exposed, they will stop at nothing to make up for the flaws and keep killing people.
As a criminal, Matt Damon is a criminal. George doesn't even bother to lay out and explain why this criminal kills his wife, and what kind of childhood shadows and personality flaws, as well as social oppression. Only cruel enough to plan to kill his lovely biological son to cover up his crimes.
Once the arrow has been fired, even the shooter can no longer prevent it from hitting its target—er—or, being cut off by someone who comes by unexpectedly.
No matter how carefully planned in advance, the law of the world is: something will go wrong!
Things started to get out of control under the influence of regularity, like a balloon that was already full, and the pump that was pumping it couldn't stop----, and finally, with a "bang", it burst!
Does the plot sound old-fashioned? Yes! But this kind of old-fashioned kind that appeared a long time ago and is almost forgotten. Just like the big snow strips I ate when I was a child, I might be disappointed to try it again at this time, but if I smack it carefully, I feel a rough pleasure.

The heroine Julianne Moore
's beauty can be smelled, far and near... thick and fragrant!
Since "Boogie Nights", it has been lingering on the tip of my nose...
This time, at the age of nearly 60, I worked hard and professionally to perform a selfish and stupid young mature girl, folded her arms and watched her on the screen. Enjoying love and being selfish, stupid and simple, sometimes sad and sometimes happy, it makes people feel distressed! The beauty is late and the face is changed, and the red skirt and green skirt are new.

In order to enter the mainstream, American movies now seem to have to discuss some social issues and show a politically correct position, and this film is also unavoidable. However, the sectarian differences in the play, and the fierce early black integration problem, are not so abrupt if you look closely, and even make a stroke from time to time, which shows the director's ability to control the overall situation!

It seems that this movie is not typical of any genre, but it is on the edge of many genres: police and gangsters? There is little conflict between police and criminals. plot? Religion, race, ethics, love... these elements are all there, but they are all as thin as a gossamer thread. mill? Although it's a little bizarre, it's not bloody at all.
Perhaps, this is its charm! Not so typical, but everything is so smooth and natural. No wonder some big media said: This is the closest Matt Damon is to the Oscars.
Bless him!

    3.5 These days, there are racial themes and there is segregation, and there is suspicion of hating Sichuan. The first half is difficult to get into the drama. It would be good to have more connections between the two families and the two lines. The sense of suspense is not enough, but the second half is still very Cohen-style Idea, the crazy and dark humorous ending pulls back a little bit, the audio-visual language of a few scenes is outstanding, the soundtrack is very retro and Hitchcocky, and there are a few more interesting comedy elements, Oscar Issac does not have a lot of scenes, but it is quite brilliant

    3.5 bar. Not disappointed. The front is a bit dull and boring, and the Oscars appear until the end and the rhythm is good. The plot is very Cohen, and at the same time, it has the old Joe-like opinions and gentleness that I wishful thinking. Really feel gentle in the end. In fact, the performance of the director is really OK. The last part of Ma's eating just made me laugh. Oscar is simply possessed by Old Joe!
