    The troubles of immortality

    This sequel still continues the original background setting. John, who has survived for 14,000 years, is unhappy because he has to say goodbye again and again. Different from the shooting method of the first episode, the story of this work has been strengthened, with more vivid scene transitions and character settings. The progress of the story no longer relies on simple language communication, but is handed over to the occurrence of events in the camera and the interaction with each other....

    Madame Bovary

    This is a high-spirited woman, but she has lost herself in marriage. Sometimes it's hard to blame such women, maybe the traditional patriarchal mindset of the 19th century saw Madame Bovary as a negative example, but in modern society, the issue is much more complicated . The tragedy of this woman is that although she has a high spirit, she has no practical ability, but only has a good face and vanity. A mediocre man can't control such a woman. Even if you work hard, the improvement they...

    Borrowing a corpse to resurrect a soul is a pale and powerless soul

    5 minutes after the opening, looking at the close-up shot of the face with one, I couldn't help asking the person beside me: Is this a domestic film?

    Less than 10 minutes into the story, I asked him again: Have we been tricked into watching bad domestic films?

    I have to say that this trick is used well. When I saw the terms Stallone and Escape Plan 2, I thought it was a brain-burning action movie with a complex plot. Before the screening, the film party did not arrange for Huang...

    you married a beast

    "Happy Valentine's Day, Ollie."

    Olive did not stop what she was doing, and glanced at her husband and gifts. "You too, Henry." This unwavering response was beyond the realm of intimacy for her. After speaking, Olive rolled her eyes and continued to busy packing her breakfast.

    In Christopher's eyes, Olive is a bad mother.

    She never had words of encouragement, and was strict with her son, almost harsh, she said: The...

    Thank you for this theatrical version of our tolerance

    I don't remember how old I started watching Doraemon. Anyway, I seem to have an impression of every episode except the first episode, and it seems that I haven't watched all of them for many years. When I was a child, I liked fairy tales, like stories, Andersen's profound and obscure, Wilde's humor, Green's princess and prince who lived happily, the adventures of One Thousand and One Nights, and the ever-changing Sakura. In so many stories, Doraemon is absolutely indispensable. Thanks to...

    Difficulty adapting

    Ottoya's original work has become more and more 'weird' and unimaginable in its final story direction, and it is basically an impossible task for the live-action version to use the two movies to extract the essence of the original work. Therefore, the content shown in the lower part of the final movie version is bound to be very different from the original comic book, at least it is more detached from the original work than this "upper", so it is obvious that this series of movies needs to be...

    Here's a little spoiler scene

    Spoiler, although I know the spoiler is wrong, but it's really shocking: the doctor told Taylor that he was smashed to pieces by Klingons, cut his limbs, shortened his forearm bones, femurs, etc., and then hypnotized him, resulting in The new personality, transformed physically and mentally by the Klingons, was suspected of being a spy. The doctor said that you are not you. It was too scary. Taylor immediately made the doctor faint. He was really a spy on the federal ship! ! ! Seeing this, I...

    Boston Law

    James Spader, who starred in "Boston Legal", is simply my new idol. He made a man full of talent, arrogant and uninhibited, puffy but sexy, lustful and steady, swaying in court, kind and loyal to his friends, upright, worried about the country and the people , the Boston barrister Allen Shore, who never gives up his principles, is very attractive. That's right, he won three Emmys in a row for it. At the end of each episode, Allan and Danny's balcony night talk makes me envious. Isn't this kind...

    some questions and thoughts



    After watching the whole movie, I believe that everyone will have many questions. For example, I think the core question is, are David and Emily dual personalities? When did the dual personality arise? What are the characteristics of each personality? When is which personality? In the film we can get detailed answers to questions about David's dual personality, while the part about Emily is less and full...

    Please stay awake in the chaos

    With his father's death, and his lack of inspiration, Searle felt like a star for Dean. Purcell has been on the road throughout the film. Along the way, he has met all kinds of people and all kinds of things. These people have their own characteristics, but they are all inseparable from the decadence of that era. Pleasure in time: pleasure is temporary, and it will wait until the end. Falling hard from the sky, the end of the rainbow is full of shit. Of the group: Carl was the first to leave...

Life is as impetuous as the temperature, but the harvest is a set of Kieslowski's The complete works, although the version is definitely not particularly good, but it is also not satisfactory, first collect all, and then shuffle a little bit. Also, love the movie poster for "No End", a bone-like pin, the name and the...

    Winning or losing does not matter

    The advantage of this drama lies in the integration of various elements: suspense (who killed the male protagonist?) + sci-fi (using technology to store memories, so as to have an afterlife) + love (handsome men and beautiful women are very eye-catching) + comedy (dense laughter) + satire ( The impact of capital and technology on human beings), people can't stop, brush the complete set in one breath.

    But after all, the 30-minute short play in one episode has a limited capacity, and...

    I can't write a short review again

    The symmetrical aesthetics of Anderson's films is not only reflected in the composition, but also in the tone and structure of the play. For example, this yellow bathrobe is replaced from the male lead to the female lead, and the coat is the same. From the bed sheets to the lights to the walls, the yellow tone is used as the background. There are also a series of actions for going to bed, symmetrical and at the same time transition to the character's psychology and emotions, where one side...

    The moon sleeps by the window, don’t know

    "I've thought about all this a lot. I spent over 10 years in a solitary confinement cell. I had the time. I spent 7 years without opening a book. It left me time to think. This is what I discovered. Either you're happy with very little, without overburdening yourself, because you have happiness inside, or you'll get nowhere.

    I am not advocating poverty. I'm advocating sobriety. But we invented a consumer society which is continually seeking growth. When there's no growth, it's tragic....

    "The Third Person"

    I watched it on and off a few times. The previous plot was really boring. If it wasn't for Harry's appearance and the chase scene at the end, I'm afraid I would give this film a maximum of 6 points. The biggest reason is that the hero, Holly, has watched so many films. Now, he can be said to be my most hated protagonist: 1. He has no wisdom. It is precisely because of his brainlessness that Harry's landlord was tragically silenced. 2. Treating people rudely, a poor and...

    The heroine's paranoia is very serious, and I kept thinking about what she went through as a child when the movie started. When I found out later that Strindberg suffered from misogyny, I understood. . . No wonder

  • Derek 2022-10-29 05:55:44

    I miss those days when two intellectual elites would stick to their respective positions and gossip on TV, and then seem to unintentionally landscape the TV debate. Fifty years later, the Joker in "joker" became the replacement for Galway in the studio. Dahl's people, like a psychopath, like a giant baby, faced the anchor who symbolized the right-wing conservative and entertained to death, completed the "revenge" like incompetence and fury, and won the illusory victory on the screen. Aphasia is like a masturbation

  • Derek 2022-10-28 03:57:58

    Other comedies are not good-looking, they are usually hard to laugh, but this one can’t find a laugh at all, like are they even trying? They can't see their intention to try to be funny, from the beginning to the end.

  • Derek 2022-10-27 02:09:23

    A drama that can make people laugh at the table is a good drama, and the geek stalks are endless, but to be honest, the characters in IT Crowd are more personal.

    You have to pay for anything in order to be rewarded. Never take everything for granted and cherish the person in front of you.

    7.5 Last year's debt repaid this year, modernizing the Shakespeare series. Cassiopeia's bombing, mainly depends on Biao's acting skills. As for the use of modern tyrant/dictatorship contexts such as fascist analogy and intertextuality, the 1999 adaptation of Titus' "Vengeance of the Hymn" goes further, and artistically is more unified between ancient and modern. This film is too tightly cut, and the supporting characters are hard-wired into the main line with famous quotes, resulting in a poor look and feel. The best segment is actually the denunciation of the Tower of London. A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse.

    After watching it for several days, if it wasn't for the MP4, it would be boring to sit on the bus, or if it didn't affect eating or Taobao, it would definitely be a PS. Tommy Lee Jones should be thankful to me. The whole movie is to watch him alone.

  • Derek 2022-09-21 13:38:23

    [C] The reversal is too abrupt, and the ending is superfluous. Fortunately, the story is still very complete.

    Two stars for Kelly Brook's daring dew point, without him.

  • Derek 2022-09-11 19:48:50

    Honestly, I know it won't be the best of the year. 123910 Episode 5 performed the best, Episode 9 had a very good emotional explosiveness, but it did not reach the height of sensationalism that Da Hanoi had achieved. Despite this, Episode 9 still seemed to be a decisive stop, joking and sad; the previous unit drama is naturally no problem . Yuasa has changed a manga that is calm and composed to be more faithful. You must read it all in one go, otherwise you will slack off..

    Truffaut is one of the directors of the French New Wave who pays the most attention to audience acceptance. His films are basically not particularly dull and boring, and this one is no exception. Although it is the structure of a gangster crime film, it is obviously not limited to the type model, adding some interesting bridges and details, such as using the traffic police to stop and hijack their car to successfully escape. The Truffaut-like monologue of characters perfectly presents Charlie's sensitive and lonely heart. There are also disadvantages, that is, except for the main character Charlie, all the other characters seem to be functional, relatively thin and flat, three and a half stars.

    I read half of it and discarded it for the time being. What impressed me most was Brian's voice, which was so warm.
