Cooking wine can only "discuss" heroes-another idealistic tragedy

Sylvester 2022-04-19 09:02:03

Even in the face of career bottlenecks, family breakdown, and emotional absence, these big boys still chose an extremely risky way, refusing to compromise with the boring life of walking dead. Standing at the crossroads of that age group, they blindly believed in an unreliable theory in an attempt to save the rapidly withering life force.

This seemingly absurd choice more and more reflects the absurdity of life itself; this seemingly absurd road is paved with the romantic spirit of "adventure everywhere".

With the same courage as when they were young, they took the step they thought would lead to their ideal life. With practical actions, they have shown their unremitting pursuit of an ideal life and their will to stop life from festering. It's the way they stand up for themselves, to find themselves, to be whole, that shows what life really is.

But they forgot, perhaps never knew, that youth is capital, a one-time bargaining chip that can no longer be owned after spending it. He represents an immeasurable and infinite possibility. He brings a new beginning after regret, and he contains a kind of rebirth from ashes under desperation. He seems to have become the basis for everyone in the world to live their own lives. Those students can play games that look fun but are actually boring, and they can get drunk before exams, but not the protagonists.

When a group of old boys embarked on this journey not only empty-handed, but also shouldering the heavy burden of life, a tragic failure was doomed, and they paid their own price for this game of life. On the way home, the blood was broken, and the vast ocean swallowed his life.

Of course, you can absolutely think that this is the rationalization reason that alcoholics find for alcoholism, and it is the base established by friends and friends for channeling together. But the experimental paper that was going on and off without a hitch, those eyes that glowed when they learned the meaning of their actions, I think really represents a heart as pure as a child that cannot be underestimated.

Men are young until they die.

It's just that the concentration of alcohol in the blood cannot be directly related to the probability of success, and the adult world is a large innocence crusher.

...

Speaking of movies, as a passive input activity that generally takes one to two hours, if you don't watch it in a pure leisure mentality to pass the time, I think every audience will be more or less interested in the movie they watch. Expect something. The Alcohol Project didn't live up to my expectations of him, in any way.

Whether it is the completion of the character branch-overall, or the internal correlation between several characters, or the dramatic tension, performance space, and narrative rhythm of the actors are not up to the standard.

In addition, I don’t know if it’s because of the lines themselves or the level of the subtitles. The vocabulary in the subtitles is not clear, and the vocabulary used is extremely abstract. The dialogue between the two in daily life is a bit like engaging in philosophical discussions, so Ben has The focus of the multi-character plot is more scattered, and the intention is more difficult to grasp.

The leads lurking behind the story are not filled with a full and substantial plot. Therefore, the whole film is more like a loose shell made by the director in a hurry after having only a novel idea of ​​"drinking to adjust the state" without solid script creation and character shaping, and the various parts are barely sticking together. There is no strong logic in the relationship between the character of Uncle Ba and his wife. There is no strong logic in it. In my eyes, the last jump has become a chic escape, and the release and reconciliation at the end of the film has become a service. A special MV for Uncle's fans. Therefore, the current rating of 7.7 is undoubtedly overrated in my opinion.

Uncle Ba is not too young, and I look forward to having better opportunities to show in the future, not just active in the wallpapers of those of us.

    I want to have a drink while watching it, and I want to drink a bottle after reading it. Alcohol can bring short-term anesthesia and excitement, as long as it can relieve temporary anxiety or bring short-term pleasure, it can be refilled indefinitely. The characters in the film encounter a mid-life crisis. In order to have a better state, they try to keep the blood containing 0.5% alcohol. Later, they gradually get out of control, from controlling alcohol to being controlled by alcohol. The problem is even more unsolved. No drunken plans, just hope that every glass of wine you drink is for pleasure.
