The story is familiar, others are expected, 80's, mathematics, physics and chemistry, American dream, Ph.D., cultural gap, race, idealistic decadence, religion, gun culture, peer competition, academic hegemony, control freak, sexual repression, cowboy spirit, ...everything is taken for granted to dullness.
It's more like a stage play than a movie. The "do" part is too heavy, and the use of five-line Chinese characters to make the scenes between the scenes makes the already loose narrative even more messy. Superfluous, it is not as natural as the four seasons used in Kenshin's reminiscence of the year. At the end, everyone seemed to realize something, and they began to be in a trance. After running around, the phone rang. Creativity is very good, but unfortunately, the conflict in front of it was not properly paved.
A lot of things are over-crafted, come on, is it really necessary to tell the story of the 1980s in the language of the movies of the 1980s? Every sentence, every word, and every action of each person must reflect the essence of the person from different angles. Is it still the Soviet school? Why say it clearly? The conflict between ideal and reality can be changed in a different way. Porn scenes could be made more interesting. God can mess things up, but please don't memorize your lines.
Life is dull, so the movie is not life, at least it is higher than life or the concentration of life. If it is too condensed, everything will flow into cartoons and planes, and maybe the audience will prefer life.
Liu Xing, his friends, the American girl he has a crush on, his mentor, his committee memebers, Joanna, and even his rivals can all be presented by an actor wearing a mask, singing a cappella and leaving, because although The lines are tailored to each person, but each person has no development from start to finish.
The performance of Beijing may be to contrast the United States, which is the extreme dilapidation of nature and minimalism. The factory buildings, residential buildings, everything is vague and outdated. Do you have to shape the distant home country in memory like this? The parents showed little joy throughout reading their son's letter from the United States, but their assessment of their son hinted at some unease about the future. Streep seemed to want to play an angelic role, but all her efforts paled slightly.
The same is true of the remaining details after the study abroad life is symbolized, beating around the bush, but always slipping away at the critical moment.
Would it be the same way to do it all over again? Perhaps the shock brought by dark matter will only hover in the ideals of the 1980s.
