      the story behind

      Time Warner, the publisher of this film, has a very good relationship with our department chair, so after a phone call, a small group of us were fortunate enough to watch the first preview in our lives. But unfortunately dedicated to Edge of Darkness. The whole story is empty and boring, and the script sucks. There is no logic at all in some places. Later, the teacher broke the news that the film was originally played by Robert Downer Jr, but the film was only filmed for 3 days, and the entire...

      The last scene left me helpless.


      In the end, the Taoist for the sky asked the young policeman: Do you have a family? do you have any kid?

      The police said yes.

      The man put down his gun, but was shot dead by the police.

      Things are often like this, a single thought can cause irreparable losses.

      Some people are still preaching morality, tolerance, not bullying the soft and fearing the hard, and believing in various beliefs in this world, but this is suicide, and others will not be as...

      Conspiracy is a bit confusing

      After I downloaded it, I lay on my computer, and then I read the movie reviews of Red Sleeves, and then I realized that the star of the film is the star of "Braveheart". I have always forgotten the names of Hollywood actors and directors.

      After get off work, I took a look and it was the same person, but the folds on his face were really ruthless, and he couldn't help but sigh how heroic and handsome was in "Braveheart" back then.

      The whole experience of watching the movie...

      Why was MEL GIBSON banned by Hollywood?

      Through his conspiracy theory movie, Lao Mei once again classically scolded the US government for a bloody mess.

      Maybe we will find it strange that in addition to the problem of alcoholism, why has Lao Mei not appeared on the screen that we are familiar with for many years? Did he make enough money? Or is he rarely filming? Or maybe everyone has already memorized the heroic image of WILLIAM in his brave heart and it is difficult to accept him to play other roles?

      No, the...

      Big star's one-man show

      The story is good. Good performance. Too bad it's too long, cutting to 90 minutes would make the film more compact.

      As Mel Gibson's return work, this film has a lot of space for his one-man show. Although Mel, as an old drama bone, has completed every scene in the film well, this is not "Survival on a Desert Island" after all. Too many individual performances have weakened the expressive power of this film. There is no outstanding performance of the supporting characters. It is like a...

    Evaluation action

    Campbell's first-class production team has unsurprisingly added a lot to the film, but the director's decision to reproduce the original TV series didn't feel strong enough in the end   . ("Variety" magazine review)
