Hope Springs negative review
2022-01-08 08:01
A middle-class family with a standard model. An ordinary couple who lived the same way for decades and the last two decades, unless one of them was sick, dead or nervous. Otherwise, such a plain life will continue to be repeated endlessly. But what is disappointing is that the director did not take this conservative and difficult marriage problem to the stage in the film, carefully examine and give it, like many male and female relationship films, nakedly spread out to spur, deconstruct, and then achieve reconciliation. The effect of atonement and washing.
The only thing the film director wants to deconstruct is the "sex" of the elderly. This ideology is not only reactionary and conservative, but also has false expectations of the relationship between men and women. If according to the logic of the film, solve the problem of "sex", everything can be harmonious and reconciled, then it is too underestimating the complex complex of the relationship between men and women. The answer given by "Love Rejuvenation" is too straightforward, simple and naive, and has ignorance lurking on the surfacereviewed
