First Reformed evaluation action

Judging from the title of "First Reformed", the movie is almost absurd. There are moments in the film that will remind the audience of Swedish director Ingmar Bergman's "Winter Light", a pastor in a small remote place suffering for his inability to save the soul of the world. Director Paul Schrader uses a more solemn and gloomy style, which is more impactful than his previous two more lively works "Light Passes" and "Dog Bites". "First Reformed" is still essentially a well-woven film showing off knowledge. The weird thing about the film is that in the film, the director seeks dignity and lets go, and there is some extra madness.  
"First Reformed" is a ruthless, repressive and thought-provoking character research work. It explores the complex issues of faith and dedication, as well as the estrangement and alienation between people. Paul Schrader is both a director and a screenwriter. He created this thought-provoking film. Based on the calm temperament of the film itself, the film may not be a genre that all audiences love to watch, but it discusses a wide range of morals, responsibilities, and modern anxiety. The issue of globalization will surely resonate deeply with educated audiences, especially those with introspective ability.

    Religion and Faith, Destruction and Redemption

    The babbling Christian-Environmentalist Apocalypse. There are good paragraphs, and the overall atmosphere is also in place: despair and redemption in the end of the world. The plot is simple, the superposition of several connotations of "doomsday", and the expression is not a big problem - as a movie, it is really lackluster and boring. The narrative borrows too much from lines and narration, and is filled with religious, political and historical symbols that keep people out of reach, and there is little characterization and dramatic conflict: what remains is missionary preaching and the desperation of the "Apocalypse" - although there are children. Probably this year's Oscar insists on holding a President Donald J. Trump Criticism Conference, and all the shortlisted films are inseparable from the criticism of his policies... It is also the expectation of the American Film Institute for its own political responsibility. It's hard to say: it's just the Chinese people on the other side of the ocean. The Republic has become the first country in human history to achieve both natural and human settlement improvements in the process of comprehensive industrialization and urbanization. Can you learn something beautiful (laughs)? The biggest so-called "thriller" may be that such a radical, arrogant and weak Christian civilization has led the world for hundreds of years.
