After watching this film in the theater, I immediately rewatched "Snatch" (Snatch) and I still enjoyed it very much. When I watched it for the first time, I didn't know that the green gypsy boxer was Brad. pete.
I have high expectations for Guy Ritchie, but I am not disappointed. It is because I have a great desire to reason and find faults, and I rarely find loopholes. I said before that "The Wind" has many loopholes like a sieve. Some people are dissatisfied, this film has loopholes. There are very few. So far, there is only one point that I do not understand very well, and some of them are unreasonable. Since the cult leader has already prepared everything, why are you provoking Sherlock Holmes before he dies? Aren't you asking for trouble? Could it be because he knew that if someone died and someone climbed out of the grave, Holmes would definitely intervene, and the pain in the long run was better than the pain in the short term?
I haven't read Sherlock Holmes, but my mother has. My mother probably has read this set of popular novels, and she has an extraordinary memory, so she told me about it. . . But when I saw the movie, it didn't match anything I'd heard. In fact, it is indeed from a comic rather than a novel, and the shooting style is very similar to Guy Ritchie's famous work "Two Smoking Guns".
Such shades are the shades of London. . . ? Always gray, damp, gloomy, cool colors, I don't like it, I like to watch Lawrence of Arabia like, the first two minutes, endless desert, golden yellow, blue sky above it, so bright, so good Pretty~~
By the way, "Lawrence of Arabia" is also one of the favorite movies of the British, because the sunny days in the UK are less than cloudy, so I went to the cinema to watch the blue sky and yellow sand, and it was not enough for 2 minutes. In Hawaii or Australia, it is estimated that people will scold David Lean for pretending to be a B criminal.
The story in this film is a bit of a British insinuation of the world today. Everyone knows it. According to legend, there is a story of [Skull and Bones] circulating in the mysterious camp of Western powers. The Skull and Bones, a secret underground organization, was established. In Yale University more than 200 years ago, it is unknown how many members there are and how to join the club, but it is said that the members are all wealthy businessmen or political elites, and there is an exaggerated statement: Today, the world is controlled by Skull and Bones! They use their wide-ranging personal connections in various countries and all walks of life to decide the success or failure of the presidential election, as well as the world economic and political structure. It is still said that Bush Jr. and Blair are both members of the Skull and Bones Society, all of which cannot be tested, because those who join the club are not allowed to disclose their identities and must obey the organization's arrangements. There are quite a few such organizations in American universities, and most of them are not public. Because of this mystery, there are many legends in the market, making it like a cult that spreads from person to person. . . . . .
Guy Ritchie's film is not known to be influenced by CCTV-10's Discovery column. Do you feel that, to some extent, it is like a documentary with the main theme of promoting popular science and opposing superstition?
In fact, reasoning movies are not easy to make, especially the reasoning movies adapted from novels. Guy Ritchie is indeed young and has been quiet for many years. He has produced a satisfactory work, proving that although he married Madonna, he is still Guy The director has not been reduced to "Mr. Mak", the plot is fascinating, and the fighting scenes, tone, and rhythm are accurately grasped. These are the basic skills of filmmakers. Although they haven't filmed for many years, their skills are not trendy. The master is in the details. Although he is shooting a Cult movie, Guy Ritchie also pays attention to details. Not only is the pig a Victorian pig, but in the chaotic, dirty, murderous slum, he also arranged for two lean men with pig tails. The Chinese were there to play chess on the spot. Although it is a fleeting shot, it shows the director Braudel-like delicacy and thoughtfulness.
Robert Downey is old and handsome, needless to say (at first glance, I thought it was AL Pacino), the images of Sherlock Holmes and Watson in the book are indeed just like in the movie, a sloppy, bold and heroic; One is a typical classical British gentleman, but the movie needs to be exaggerated, otherwise it will not look good.
I don't think there will be a sequel. Someone has already made a TV series for this novel, and I have watched a few episodes. Moreover, the essence of the whole book (detailed observation and reasoning) is almost completely shown in this movie, and there is really no need for a sequel.
