Land of Mine (2015)

Good film

[8/10 · 1 July 2020]

In addition to expressing people's dissatisfaction with the war through the hatred of the Local Danes towards the German army, the young Germans are also eager to return to peace and rebuild their homeland. This was fully demonstrated in their many private conversations. To return to the motherland became their urgent desire after the completion of the mission. So, another theme conveyed by the film is human nature, which is embodied in master Sergeant Carl's changing attitude towards the young Germans. At the end of the film, Carl secretly lets four survivors go, showing the humanity of the film incitingly, and a warm current gushes into the heart. It was as if the war had never happened when we saw four teenagers running towards their homes five hundred metres away.In addition to expressing people's dissatisfaction with the war through the hatred of the Local Danes towards the German army, the young Germans are also eager to return to peace and rebuild their homeland.

Amanda (2018)

Good film

[8/10 · 27 June 2020]

When we are sad, we can't face the reality of the situation. The inserted Copy of Elvis Presley has left The Scene is a metaphor. When Amanda lost her mother at the beginning, she did not show fragile sadness, but insisted on the existence of her mother. On the contrary, uncle David was the one who could not hold on. After many struggles, I decided to adopt Amanda. The meeting with my mother after years of separation was also the beginning of healing. He and his sister were also raised by a single father. After his father died, let the single sister live with him. Even if it was just him and Amanda, he could still live. Life is about holding on when there is no hope. The turning point of the tennis game in the movie is a metaphor that life always gets better.

Trash (I) (2014)

Good film

[8/10 · 23 June 2020]

Local teenagers, three of whom live in poverty, have led to a serious imbalance between rich and poor across Brazil. And through their unsophisticated looks and innocent reactions, they symbolise the deep roots of Brazilian society, but also the promise of youth. No matter how complicated the world is, some things can still be seen as pure, like the accidental involvement of three teenagers in a corruption case. They are probably not quite sure how to write about corruption. They are purely persistent and good, and they are willing to take risks for it.

Frequency (2000)

Good film

[9/10 · 22 June 2020]

Frequency is a work of positive optimism that believes science can change fate. What is valuable in this film is that in a relatively cold scientific thinking and crime story, the emotion is greatly released, which can not help but make people have a sense of sadness and joy. It is the existence of this plot that makes this film, which should have been very indifferent from the point of view of the title, full of human brilliance, and full of infinite warmth in infinite reverie, which is the charm of this film.Black Hole Frequency is a work of positive optimism that believes science can change fate.

Colette (I) (2018)

Good film

[7/10 · 21 June 2020]

There is always the risk of boredom in this genre, but Colette is an exception. Much of this is due to the leading lady: even though Knightley often appears in period dramas, she has an alluring modernity about her, both in her manner and in her determination and independence in her on-screen interactions with men, especially her husband.

I, Tonya (2017)

Wonderful film

[7/10 · 19 June 2020]

Tanya's life is a tragedy, did not feel the real affection and love, life highlight is so short, even the survival of the capital were deprived of. She's also comedic, out of place in a world of truth and heroes, but that's what makes her unique. The director sometimes breaks the fourth wall and adds a fancy moving mirror to try to cover the tragic elements with a comic atmosphere, leaving more room for interpretation.

Wonder (I) (2017)

It's a wonder

[8/10 · 18 June 2020]

In my eyes, the miracle of this film is more reflected in his family education and family environment. His family is in the high-end district, and he is thoroughly rich and educated. Also has a lot of rich people are many, intellectuals, and can be rich and have a culture and understand education and have the courage and the mainstream education ways, so few different mainstream education ideas, this requires a lot of wisdom and courage as well as the father to the mother bear, and parental wisdom and courage and real bear itself is scarce, so it is the part of a miracle in itself.

Good Time (2017)

Good film

[7/10 · 17 June 2020]

Note: Good times are not the easy frolics suggested by the title. The new film from Joshua and Benny Safdie, the brother-team of indie filmmakers behind abrasive micro-budget hits like Daddy Longlegs and Heaven Knows, is hardly a fun experience in the theater, but it's a memorable one. The push, urgency, and often unsettling good times is a technically scored, 21st-century New York crime journey down while managing to feel real and profoundly surreal.

Nightcrawler (2014)

A biting, dark, ironic and memorable thriller

[8/10 · 16 June 2020]

A biting, dark, ironic and memorable thriller, Jake Gyllenhaal has created one of the best roles of his career. It was 2014's Drive. The theme of Nightcrawler involves a great deal of social and moral criticism, but the commentary on social economy is the main focus. And the second half of the film to the moral corruption of the provocation makes the film to get a magic sublimation. It may seem counterintuitive to show "Nightcrawler" in time for Halloween, but then again, what's wrong with such a graphic and gripping anti-social portrait. From a humble beginning, "Nightcrawler" makes a sourly funny mockery of journalism, the job market and self-help culture, one by one.

Polar (I) (2019)

So cool

[8/10 · 15 June 2020]

The movie simply seeks a cool word. Once, the all-powerful Duncan, with his amazing business skills, has become a legend, he is the focus, as for the others, it is all a foil. He created a deep melancholy, full of thoughts of the image of the killer, marksmanship + reaction + blood are full, the whole process of hanging. All in all, as an action thriller, Polar Killer comes alive in its configuration. Violence, lust, drama, shoot-outs, from beginning to end. Do not cling to the story, also do not talk about feelings. Then we might as well relax, see over 50 years old Ma3 Shu4 pretended to play cool handsome, bang bang bang kill 100 people. It is not necessary to steal half a day from life. When it's time to be hot, he doesn't show mercy.The movie simply seeks a cool word.

An Inspector Calls (2015 TV Movie)

Good film

[8/10 · 14 June 2020]

Adapted from a play, the film is still a story that takes place in a small living room. The story is driven by tight language. The narration and description in the original are replaced by the natural advantage of the camera. It also retains the beauty due to stage performance. The position and expression of each actor in the picture are carefully designed so that no one will play, restoring all the rhythmic sense and real perception of the stage. Also because to restore the sense of the stage, so all the actors performance than the general people in the film and television drama to a bit more dramatic. It is also because of this exaggeration that the funny callousness of the capitalist's wife, the sagacity and smooth submissiveness of the young capitalist, and the remorse and anger of the two sisters can be chewed like classical novels.

Elizabeth Is Missing (2019 TV Movie)

Good film

[8/10 · 11 June 2020]

It is the setting of Alzheimer's disease that gives the film its special suspense. It is through the front of the constant foreshadowing, the end just become very moving. Maude's yearning for her sister is so strong that she can overcome the trouble of the disease, break through the mystery in the broken and chaotic memory, and find the final truth. Remarkably, the key to the film's eventual success is also her daughter's patient listening to Maud -- it's a seemingly illogical question from Maud that eventually leads her to the burial site.

Mudbound (2017)

A good film

[8/10 · 9 June 2020]

In "Dirt," there are six main characters, three from white and three from black families, and the ambition is considerable. A large number of characters, for the play, is quite a challenge. The performance is more difficult, as long as one of the lax, can not be deeply convincing. "The Dirt Line" digs up the painful dirt of the apartheid era and breaks the boundaries of our fixed thinking, showing us not only the divisions and contradictions that lie beneath the dirt, but also the struggles of humanity. The text of the play is not perfect, it still has defects. But it has to be said that several of the actors in "Dirt" give excellent performances. This year's Gotham Independent Film Awards were nominated for best group drama.

Bombshell (I) (2019)

Fantastic film

[7/10 · 7 June 2020]

As far as I'm concerned, "breaking news" the front is very good, first to several characters to break the fourth wall opening to introduce myself, although many are not used to this kind of narrative may make the audience get confused about, but it is a lot of dialogue, tie-in rhythmic clips and scenes scheduling, me completely sucked into the movie, like a deep afraid carelessly miss key lines, in news work need nerves, competition is intense, at any time will be the others don't know when to replace the atmosphere, in this environment will lead to film the subsequent event would not be so strange. It is interesting to note that "breaking news" in the "public news" this position has towards the conservative republican camp, and loved by the President of the United States trump TV media, since 2016 after the outbreak of sexual harassment, Roger to deduct the subject itself has a great development space, generally liberal and democratic Hollywood didn't give up the beaten opponent an opportunity, so efficient is the movie made, I think will be the operation of the ideological and political intentions, so we can see in the first film the picture.

Perfect Strangers (2016)

Deep thinking

[8/10 · 6 June 2020]

The film had regrets that mobile phones have become the black box of human information, once opened, all the secrets will be exposed. This is the inevitable result of the information explosion. During the Industrial Revolution, we relied on newspapers for news, telegrams for urgent messages, distant relatives and friends taking their greetings out of envelopes, and thoughts of lovers being conveyed only at meetings. How about now? All it takes is a phone. The diversity of information transmission means the complexity and inefficiency of information transmission. The decrease of diversity means the centralization of information ports and the unification of communication rules, which will inevitably bring huge information explosion.

Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri (2017)

Fantastic film

[7/10 · 5 June 2020]

Film director Martin MacDonald, as the representative of the circle of western drama face to face with the drama itself, not avoid violence and plasma and choose directly with fantastic technique to depict the anger, the violence, prejudice, such as dark parts of the human nature, lines with lots of swearing, borrow edge of evil evil, lend itself against violence, violence crime types anti crime types. It blends humor, absurdity and pain with emotion, humanity and virtue to create this black humor film full of dramatic tension and arousing the audience's deep thinking. In the process of watching, you must pay attention, because every line has a subtext, and every piece of humor has a double meaning. The director is good at using metaphors, cultural symbols, slang, puns, awkward situations, funny situations and so on to create suitable and varied Settings for the characters to enrich the drama on the characters.

Detroit (2017)

Deep thinking

[7/10 · 4 June 2020]

Almost all the people in that row had seen the first black punk shot by the police in the hotel play with the starting gun, especially the two men in the same room had repeatedly stopped, why under such strong police interrogation, no one mentioned him to play the starting gun joke? Wouldn't it have been the end if they had said it right away? I don't know if the director did it on purpose or if it's just the way it is. It's uncomfortable to watch anyway, and it doesn't sympathize with most of the black people in the show.

The Book Thief (2013)

A special film

[7/10 · 3 June 2020]

The strange thing about the film is that the narrator is the god of death. From the point of view of death, human beings in the middle of the last century were stupid, cruel and unreasonable. At the end of the film, the girl's adoptive parents do not escape the kiss of death, and both died in the allied bombing. This scene of death is the most powerful and unforgettable. It was sudden and cruel, but not terrible, and left only deep sorrow.

Rudy (1993)

Achieve more and more goal

[8/10 · 2 June 2020]

Most of the time, we just follow the rules step by step on the path of our life. From birth to death, just a few decades. What is the meaning of our lives? After watching the movie, I suddenly understand that maybe the meaning of life is not how much money, how big a house to live in. Maybe it is us who realize our dreams through our own efforts. The more difficult the dream, the more we can bring infinite sense of achievement. This is the process of realizing a dream or goal, which is the meaning of life. As an office worker, it would be pathetic if there were no extra pursuits or goals besides going to work every day. This is no doubt a waste of life, we must continue to achieve more than one goal, such a life is true to live, is meaningful. I hope I keep that in mind.Most of the time, we just follow the rules step by step on the path of our life. From birth to death, just a few decades. What is the meaning of our lives?

Front of the Class (2008 TV Movie)

It makes me moved

[7/10 · 1 June 2020]

What moved me most was his persistence and positive attitude towards life, which moved me a lot. I once imagined that if I were like him, I might not be able to stand the torture and hide at home for the rest of my life. But brad did not. He was always working hard for his dream. In fact, each of us can be the first, as long as you want.

Wildlife (2018)

Impressive movie

[7/10 · 31 May 2020]

Paul dano makes an impressive directorial debut, delving into the struggles and struggles of three family members without a word or a hysterical outburst. And the acting is just as good -- Carey mulligan's best actress performance is just as gripping.

Paterson (2016)

A strong film

[7/10 · 30 May 2020]

Patterson is a strong film. A coquettish old-school wenqing film. The film is an almost uneventful, slow, silent account of a week in the small town of Paterson, a bus driver who shares his name with a famous poet. Of course, this week is not without waves, but watching the film will feel that even the waves of the film is also very ordinary splash. However, the flat plot does not hinder the film's "SAO" at all, because the director inserted a lot of interesting elements into the lengthy flat narration.

A Rainy Day in New York (2019)

A beautiful film

[8/10 · 28 May 2020]

"A rainy day in New York" was woody Allen's new movie, and I watched it with interest. Even though many people commented that he couldn't jump out of his established frame, that was his style. All the stories in the movie seem so natural, without any drama, but they are full of well-arranged coincidences and expected changes. It is just like a story happened around you and me. There is a trace of sweetness at the end, a trace of sudden realization and a trace of regret. The world is full of prejudice, both in relationships and in everyday relationships. Because you grew up in a different environment, you saw things differently, and every day you have to get stuck in a system of being judged by others. But so what? Many people try to be recognized because they care too much about the eyes of others, but when they put on a coat that does not belong to them, they will always be seen through at a glance because they are out of place in the crowd."A rainy day in New York" was woody Allen's new movie, and I watched it with interest.

Dark Waters (2019)

It shocked me

[7/10 · 27 May 2020]

"dark waters" from the perspective of a lawyer, little by little opened the world is a big case. At first, the lawyer only helped a farmer out of country. The farmer's cows were dead and crazy because they drank water from the chemical plant upstream. However, as the lawyer continues to learn the truth, he gradually discovers that an unregulated chemical material, PFOA, is poisoning the region with a chain of carbon molecules called c-8. The most shocking thing is that at the end of the movie, almost all living things in the world have this harmful substance in their blood. That section of subtitles played out, can not help but let a person's heart a cool."Blackwater" from the perspective of a lawyer, little by little opened the world is a big case.

Eye in the Sky (2015)

Fantastic film

[7/10 · 26 May 2020]

The complexity of drone warfare, which triggers a series of strategic decisions, moral crises, collateral damage and buck-passing, is also part of the film's appeal, with its director's clever blend of suspense thrillers and satirical teasers. The film doesn't lean entirely toward dark humor, but this unclassifiable war drama continues to laugh, prompting comparisons with kubrick's classic "Dr. Strangelove." The film is entertaining as a political thriller. Sharp editing amplifies the sense of tension, contrasting the bleak, closed interior with the crisislurking exterior in broad daylight. The art direction and special effects further enhance the credibility of the film, and the group play is very impressive.
