"Unearthing the evils of human nature are truly great works. They make the audience tremble with fear in the dark." This is the American film critic's evaluation of "Blood Down", and I think it also applies to other movies. And the truly profound Wall Street should be full of bloody greed. There is a river on one side and hell on the other, hiding the vanity and vanity and the money and power to control the world, as well as the justice and principles sacrificed for this.
"Wall Street" is such a movie. When Oliver Stone was the son of a stock broker and a fledgling director, he aspired to make a film that revealed the inside story of Wall Street stock trading. So there was this most outstanding business war movie in film history, leaving Gordon's classic definition of greed, and also leaving behind such a good sentence as'money never sleeps'. 23 years later, it became the title of the sequel.
Twenty-three years later, Oliver Stone has become famous. His films are less and less political and shady, less sharp and revealing, less and less human evil, so "Wall Street 2" is no longer sharp. . Artists generally prosper in poverty and drown in pleasure. In a material environment, they only produce works, and do not leave art behind.
In fact, the sequel to Goya’s "The Sword Eater" is enough to reflect the greedy nature of Wall Street. It can already develop a thrilling Wall Street story, but unfortunately this time it is just a prop that flashes light.
The boys who are now sitting in Wall Street investment banks and managing hedge funds may be affected by "Wall Street" in their careers when they are in college, but this time many people will leave for this sequel. In Wall Street and "Wall Street", women are just an accessory to success. Grabbing money has the real power to shake people's hearts. But the sequel has become a warmth-filled movie. "Gate", when Gordon and his daughter-in-law finally reconciled, the film embarked on the old road of "Alexander" and "World Trade Building." For the director, this is a dead end he is very familiar with.
For many years, Wall Street has not changed, and the subprime mortgage crisis in the new century has added legend to it. The game rules of Player or Zero have not changed. But the movie has changed. It tries to comfort investors who were injured in the financial crisis. Life (love and family) is more important than money. For those who hold a lot of money, even the director, this is a truth, but for those who really look forward to a movie like "Wall Street", this is a shit. If you just listen to this, you don't need to buy a ticket. Mom will say it every day.
If I were to tell the truth like a website run by Carey Mulligan, then I can only say that this is a second-rate family drama and a third-rate romance drama, and it is more and more away from the almost great business war classic. Far.
