    The film is not dramatic, but has a loose structure and a lot of lines. It's a horribly boring movie, and it turns out that a movie without a story, without drama, really doesn't work, even a Kurosawa...

    A masterpiece that has been remade many times, the rhythm scheduling performance is excellent, the characters and sounds outside the painting are the expansion of the picture, the sense of space is very strong, and the ending is awesome. But it's too long, plus Ze Huang's usual hysterical and demonized female characters, the middle part is a bit tortured, especially when the subtitles don't make...

    If you don't have a good temper, you can't watch it. The lens is shot from the side and above to create a low and depressing environment, and outdoor shots are minimized, and the outdoor shots are in the low place under the two high walls, deliberately or even maliciously to create a depressing atmosphere, regardless of poverty, the sun is free, the small mountains and forests There are no fees everywhere in the highlands, the poor are busy with their livelihoods, running around, working with...

    Three and a half stars // Akira Kurosawa's adaptations are always in place and local style, making full use of the scene scheduling in a small space, making full use of the depth of field space and the movement of characters, and using a cramped environment to compress the living space of the characters so that they can't breathe // But it's too...

    What made me stunned was that the last time I came across Akira Kurosawa's work that I couldn't watch anymore was "Idiot". , the favorability is really not high. In the second creation of Western story transplantation, the results of adapting Russian works are obviously lower than adapting Shakespeare. The handling of monotonous scenes can be said to be careless, but the signs of dissatisfaction are still serious, and the whole is finally weak. It becomes loose as the story...

    The atmosphere of the stage play is so strong that the more you watch it, the more boring it becomes, while the disgusting sense of dilapidation and the dirty words that fill your ears throughout the film can only highlight the word...

    Zhang Yimou, Spielberg, and Lucas are all his iron fans. He is "the master of the masters", director Kurosawa Akira's movie world...

    It might be fine to tell a story, but this film still feels a bit long-winded about "how to live in a daze" in general, like recording a day when a person has nothing to do, which is boring. The living environment of this group of people is still very eye-catching, and they want to know more, but this kind of long and bland narrative gradually makes people lose...

    7# Watching it on the plane to pass the time, Akira Kurosawa's personal style is not fully reflected, except that the last 10 seconds are very shocking and the personal characteristics of the people at the bottom are very prominent, others are a bit...
