New York Times, 90 points!
"Variety show", 90 points!
On the second day after the premiere of "crazy love", the official journal of the Sundance Film Festival immediately announced the film critics' comments on the work. The first one to bear the brunt was the comments of the two top authoritative media.
The two media both gave a super high evaluation of 90 points, which is very impressive for a small pattern of love movie, which is comparable to last year's brilliant "blue Valentine's Day", which also laid the foundation for the media evaluation of "crazy love"“ The comments of "New York Times" and "variety show" have been recognized by many film critics.
The official review of Sundance clearly expressed his love for this work, "the actors are well dressed, but the rest of the film is so naked, showing the true face of love without any disguise. This love film makes other similar works look so superficial, so boring and so boring."
This is the official affirmation from the official magazine. Not only that, the official review of Sundance also gave a full score of 100 points, which is also the first full score given by the official since the opening of this year's Sundance. Just this one detail can show their admiration and pursuit of "crazy love".
In a flash, "love crazy" has become the number one favorite of this year's jury awards!
Sundance is not the only media to give a full 100“ Vanity fair and USA today both gave 100 points.
In his comments for vanity fair, Claudie Pug said, "it's a unique, amazing, low-cost independent movie, enough to shame big movies with huge investments. The power of time, the oppression of space and the torrent of life are all reduced to supporting roles in the whole film. Love, only love, and Drake doremus has contributed a beautiful film which is moving to heartbreak. "
Katherine longwalsh of "America today" said: "in this work, doremus shows his delicate touch of emotion and vivid interpretation of reality, reflecting on the turbulent; But without the wonderful and natural performances of the two leading actors and the hot, turbulent and authentic sparks between them, the film would not have been successful. "
Three full marks, three full marks, "crazy love" has undoubtedly become the most acclaimed work since the opening of Sundance this year, and this is not the end. James Bernard of "voice of the village" gave 95 points.
In the comments, James believes that "crazy love" tells a simple and pure truth: love is crazy, but sometimes - just like the original face of life - love is hurtful. Derek doremus tells a delicate and true story, arousing people's good memories of blue Valentine's day. And Brokeback Mountain. "
Praise, praise, praise! The unanimous praise has pushed "crazy love" to an incredible peak of public praise. In the official journal of Sundance, a total of 12 media comments have been published, of which nine media have given good reviews, two media have given intermediate reviews, and only one has given poor reviews.
The bad review came from Lisa Schwarzbaum of entertainment weekly.
It can be noticed that Lisa is not interested in the previous "buried alive" and "Pacific War", and both of them give bad comments. No matter whether she has personal grudges with Lan Li or not, it can be seen that Lisa doesn't have much preference for the rising star of acting in a short time.
"Similar to dolemus' fool 'who landed in Sundance Film Festival in 2010, the film shows a dazzling level in performance. The light performance becomes a bright color on the screen, and the chemical reaction between the two actors is also worthy of recognition.
But the work itself is like a drug addicted Wes Anderson. In order to write a term end thesis on "returning to New Jersey", so as to learn from Sophia Coppola's films, and then draw on various fragments, elements and ideas from numerous classic works, he made up a hodgepodge of music videos——
A complete disaster. "
Lisa is so ruthless that she belittles the film for nothing. She even satirizes Drake's amateurship with oil pipes. Her sharp and sharp evaluation of 30 points can clearly show her point of view.
However, this time, Lisa is lonely. Among the 12 comments in the official journal of Sundance, she is the only one who disagrees, and also the only one whose score is lower than the passing line. Maybe after "crazy love" is released in the United States, she can find a like-minded partner, but now in Sundance, all other media have sent praise one after another. But there's one thing Lisa and everyone agree on, and that's the actors.
Even Lisa, among the bad reviews, gave the actors corresponding affirmation and said "this is the only bright spot".
Compared with Lisa, the praise of other film critics is more hot and turbulent; More precisely, compared with the movie "crazy love", most of the critics focus on the performances of the actors, including the two intermediate reviews.
"New Yorker" of Mary - grunva only played 60 points of evaluation, her good opinion of the film itself is very limited, think that the work is only to pass the standard, but the attitude towards the actors is very different.
"Felicity Jones and Raleigh hall gave amazing performances in this film.
There is a childish innocence and simplicity in Jones' performance, which shows the fragility and madness of love incisively and vividly; Hall is undoubtedly the most bright spot on the whole big screen, dull, focused, green, hesitant, sad, fanatical, the eyes full of the world, when the eyes dim down, the world will fall apart.
The two actors, especially hall, injected a magical power into the film. "
It's hard to imagine that Mary only gave 60 points. When she watched this comment alone, she thought it was a full score. From this side, we can also see that Mary's hatred of iron is not strong, as well as her strong respect for the performance of the actors.
Another 65 point rating is the same. Rene Rodriguez of the Chicago Tribune commented on the film: "I can't figure out why anyone would be interested in such a romantic, mean and sweet chick love movie." Even Tucao is even worse than Drew-Barrymore's sweet love comedy, "at least the latter can make you smile into your sleep". Barrymore make complaints about the movie.
However, Rene praised the performance of the two actors, "the chemical reaction between them makes people willing to believe that this love story is true. Hall, in particular, supported the emotional change and time change of the whole film by his performance. After being buried alive, he once again proved his absolute strength. "
In addition, Rene also mentioned Jennifer Lawrence, "her delicate performance in limited space is commendable." It can be seen that Rene praised the overall performance of the film.
This is really an interesting phenomenon.
For a love movie, in fact, what people pay most attention to is "love" itself, or romance, or tragedy, and so on“ This is true of the 500 days and blue Valentine's day of Harry and summer, even the famous works such as "Anne hall" and "when Harry meets Sally".
It's not that the actors in love movies are not good enough. Diane Keaton won the Oscar for "Annie hall" in those years; It is said that love movies are trapped in their own theme and framework, and the performance space is relatively narrow.
Taking "Brokeback Mountain" as an example, the script gives the two protagonists a lot of inner play space, outlines the emotional changes of the characters, sacrifices the romantic elements of love movies, and focuses on the psychological state of the characters. In fact, this is not only out of the scope of love movies, but also belongs to plot movies.
Therefore, it is not easy for a pure love movie to highlight the performance of the actors.
But now, "crazy love" has successfully broken the shackles. Instead, the performances of the two actors have become the biggest highlight of the whole work. In addition to one bad review and two medium reviews, other favorable comments of the official magazine are even more so.
"Genius! Genius! Genius! Blue - hall once again amazing the big screen! Just with the heartbreaking look in the last act of the movie, Hall's performance is enough to make it into the top ten of this year's best performances! What's more, it's not Hall's best performance in the movie. The expression, action, eyes and lines, Hall's performance is natural, sweet to the extreme, bitter to the extreme, but also helpless to the extreme
"It's a pleasure to watch Hall's performance. It's a totally different role and a totally different way of performance, but he can always give the role a special texture, which is between his personal charm and the character's personality image, and blur the boundaries of performance. Jones and Lawrence performed very well, even very well, but in front of hall, they were slightly inferior. Just to watch the show, I'd like to see the film again. "
"If someone said that hall's performance in 'crazy love' was more difficult than 'buried alive', then I would not agree; However, Hall shows his deep acting skills in both works. As far as I'm concerned, I prefer the performance in "crazy love". I can feel that hall's control is more excellent. The kind of flowing performance, which quietly completes the role building between every move and action, is unimaginable. He is only 21 years old. "
"It's a very interesting film. The performance of the actors brings out the wonderful characteristics of the film. The two female characters, Jones and Lawrence, show their vulnerable side in love, and also show their strength in trying to change the status quo of life. The performance of the two young actresses undoubtedly completes the characters successfully; But the biggest highlight of the film is undoubtedly hall, the unique hall. In a few scenes, he not only dedicated the Oscar level performance, but also dedicated the Y generation leader level performance. "

be profuse in praise!
