The Beaver (2011) I
downloaded this film for a long time and I forgot to watch it. Now I turned it out and watched it.
The movie tells the story of a depressed father and son. My father suffered from depression for a long time, which made the family disharmony, and his career was not enterprising, and was finally kicked out of the house by his wife. The father was so depressed that he wanted to die, but the beaver doll in his left glove saved him. As a result, his father became two people, one is his true self, and the other is Mr. Beaver. The son is very similar to his father, and he is afraid that he suffers from depression like his father. His son collected money to write various things for his classmates, and a beautiful girl with nearly perfect academic studies hired him. Since then, the two often stay together. After the father became Mr. Beaver, he used the diagnosis of the psychiatrist as an excuse to live and work with Mr. Beaver, his wife, young son, and colleagues. Life gradually got better and better and his career improved. After a while, the wife couldn't stand Mr. Beaver, so she learned the truth from the psychologist—the father didn't see the psychologist at all. So, his wife left his father with the whole family. My father was very disappointed, so he accepted various TV interviews to talk about his life and pain. At the same time, because the son told the girl's concerns, the two broke up unhappy. To get rid of Mr. Beaver, my father saw off his left hand in the middle of the night. Afterwards, his wife forgave his father and took care of him every day. The son also reconciled with the girl and wrote what the girl wanted. However, the girl used her son to write things, but she said what she was saying. After hearing the girl's heart, the actor returned to the hospital and reconciled with his father.
This film is a type of movie that I dislike, that is, a "healing" movie. In the film, the director always shows American family values and affection through the content of the story, and occasionally some other emotions, such as friendship, are also involved. It can be seen that it is very clichéd. I have said before that such a movie is just moaning without illness, and composing some sad stories for the general public who is not happy in life. Although it is not called salting the wound, it is almost the same. Therefore, no matter how good the movie story is, how good the actors’ acting skills are, or how deep the theme is, they can’t move me, they will only disgust me.
As far as this film is concerned, his father is a depressed patient. Under the serious trouble of the disease, he split into another personality, and he is very adapted to this kind of life! It's too ridiculous! I really don’t understand the significance of such a story. Is it worthwhile to change from depression to mental illness? I really didn't see it. On the other hand, son’s pain is a typical puberty trouble, and they are not related to depression in any way. When my son tells the girl’s concerns, he just wants to help her. She is kind! The film actually described the plot of "learning from Lei Feng to do good" very depressing, which shows how strange the film is. In addition, the girls were too exaggerated to let their brother die. Because in other American movies, minors are generally at odds with their siblings, but in this film, the elder brother has become the love of girls in the hearts of girls, so I can’t even mention it! Too unrealistic. All in all, the story of the film is not only divorced from reality, but also quite hypocritical. It seems to be so painful to piece together all kinds of irrelevant plots like a fuss!
The filming aspect of the film is also like the plot of the movie, depressed, dull, and painful. The whole film feels like my title "depressed to death". It's so boring to watch such a movie. The director Jodie Foster is very powerful, and he can make a story about depression that makes people look depressed, it's amazing. Other aspects of the movie are the mainstream style of Hollywood movies, nothing special. However, the look of the girl Jennifer Lawrence in the film is too unlike a high school student. Not only does the look in the film make Jennifer Lawrence hot, sexy and mature, but also the makeup and jewelry match her to a mature woman. Are the production staff of this film silly? Where are students? They are obviously sexy beauties! Is it because Jennifer Lawrence is so hot that they can't find North?
The highlight of the movie is only on the performance. The male and female protagonists Mel Gibson and Jodie Foster performed very competently, meeting the standards of the actor and queen, but they were too shabby to play this kind of healing film. The son actor Anton Yelchin performed mediocre, with no extra feeling except for being handsome. The real attraction of this film is Jennifer Lawrence, the actress who is now popular with The Hunger Games. "The Hunger Games" missed the opportunity to watch, but Jennifer Lawrence's appearance, body, and temperament in this film are already very eye-catching. Compared with her still immature in "X-Men: First Class", she is totally different. people. Jennifer Lawrence looks so mature at a young age, and is considered an alternative beauty. It's a pity that there are too few scenes, and I don't know how her acting skills are.
in conclusion. This is a very cliché healing movie. The story is not good and the characters are not fresh. Although it can't make people feel depressed and die, it will make viewers regret it for a long time.
