Kafka Comments

When 1984 and whimsical metaphors of power and individual existence are mixed into this film about Kafka, Kafka's existence is somewhat awkward. The entire film wanders outside of Kafka itself. Although Kafka's classics are embedded in the story, the ambiguous and hybrid themes make the expression messy, like a failed cramming ceremony. Perhaps this is not Kafka, but Soderbergh's interpretation and understanding of...

A political prophecy in the name of Kafka. In today's China, it is even obscure enough. However, some color switching and the arrangement of the plot can be regarded as a good B-level film, but there is a certain point that the director does not understand Kafka, and also misinterprets some of Kafka's ideas. It's a pity that my two favorite writers, Kafka and Jie Chuan, don't have...

I'm so embarrassed to call Kafka I'm so embarrassed to say it's a...

It is neither a biography showing life history nor a work adapted from Kafka's novels, but a fictional text that uses the guise of a political murder to peek into the soul of Kafka, the master of existentialism. The black and white clerks and big writers in reality, the colorful genocide machines in the nightmare, Kafka running at full speed under the street lights, the absurd horror is hidden in the surface...

People's nightmares are like shadows in their lives, and they can only maintain their daily lives by pretending not to know. "I've always believed that it's better to know the truth than to live in ignorance, and now I should find out if I'm right. I no longer deny that I'm part of the world around me, even though we're...

Black and white is really cool. The quality of the picture is great. However, I didn't really understand it. I probably didn't understand it when I read Metamorphoses when I was a child. . . . . I really saw it, or I just imagined it. . . . Eh, hard to say. . . Fortunately, the movie shows the Prague of this paranoid life after all. That beautiful bridge, and the working class back...

A thriller and suspense film with a weird atmosphere. It looks like a film noir on the surface, but Cronenberg is very Cronenberg in the bones. In fact, I always feel that Soderbergh made this film to pay tribute to Cronenberg's "Nude...

The atmosphere is quite good, and Irons' performance is also very suitable. Many points and settings coincide with Kafka's work. The whole film has a tone that is mixed with a blurred atmosphere, but the bite is too tight. After entering the castle, it turns into color, especially when it comes to...

The director does not seem to have any intention of blurring the truth and fiction of the film's story, otherwise the ending should have made some changes in terms of color and so on. However, the film integrates Kafka's life story with the content of several novels he wrote, the intersection of reality and literature, and puts Kafka's different novels in the same dystopian world at the same time, which can be said to be very interesting....

To directly and rudely interpret the castle as a totalitarian bureaucratic machine, and even let the protagonist enter the castle directly in the third act, which is equivalent to directly blocking the ambiguity of the concept of the castle - you must know that Kafka does not even have a castle. Clearly, what about being visible or even accessible? Moreover, the absurdity of "Castle" exists not only in the castle, but also in K; directly replacing the protagonist with Kafka and self-righteously...
