"I don't like it! No matter what you say, I don't like it! This movie has brought strong physical discomfort, even if the performance of Langley is wonderful, I don't like it! That's where I stand. "
"The problem is that this is what the director wants to achieve, making people feel uncomfortable. What you don't like just proves the success of the film. "
……
"The artistic concept conveyed by the film is too bloody and extreme. It's not only by cutting off all the connections that we can achieve the perfection of art, nor by being ruthless that we can touch the peak of art. On the moral level, I can't recognize this work. It challenges the audience's bottom line: the moral bottom line and the psychological bottom line, so the artistic concept can't be recognized. Moreover, that kind of simple and crude visual impact is really too superficial, I can't give a good comment. "
"But I think the context of the film is very interesting: from the physical level to the spiritual level, is this also a way to appreciate art? It's like the visual effects created by color, shape, composition and so on, which impact the brain and form a unique self understanding. From this point of view, whether the artistic perfection discussed in the film is really perfect is not to be said for the moment, but the form of artistic expression is very interesting. I think Damien chazele has a bright future. "
"If you look at it this way, I agree with you. But Damien's way of expression is too straightforward. If it wasn't for lanli's incredible performance, the impact and shock of the film would be only a thin layer, and the quality of the whole film would not be what it is now, at least two grades worse than black swan. "
……
"Wonderful! marvellous! It's really wonderful! I thought gravity was amazing. I didn't expect that lanli could continue to break through himself. This is definitely the best thing in his career
"Yes! In my opinion, the overall visual impact even exceeds that of "buried alive", and the degree of delicacy and complexity has surpassed that of "drunken folk songs". This is definitely the most difficult and complete performance of Lan Li so far. God, before Toronto, I thought critics were talking nonsense, but now it seems that Langley has broken through himself again. "
……
The screening of the film has ended, but the audience has not left. Almost all don Quixotes have stayed at the gate of the cinema, standing on the open road, bathed in the stars and moonlight, dancing and exchanging each other's opinions. The discussion boom has not subsided, the passion has not cooled down, and everyone has actively participated in the opinion publication, which is just a click, But it created a kind of fiery effect of the film festival.
William and Graham are just two drops of water in the ocean. Their love from the heart burst out with incredible energy.
It's just the tip of the iceberg.
"God, what about the movie? What's going on? "
"Ah, I heard that the young master is so handsome. What should I do? I'm going to faint now."
"What? The young master plays the scum man? Oh, I'm looking forward to it! More looking forward to it! Please abuse me, will you? "
"Is it good? Is the movie good? Is the young master's performance really the best in his career
"Isn't it bloody? Does anyone faint? Does anyone vomit? "
"Expectations have broken. I can't do it. My heart is overloaded."
In addition to the hot discussion, there are more Don Quixote who have not been able to enter the cinema to watch the movie for the first time. In the audience's chirping exploration and discussion, the expectation value has reached an unprecedented height, and those eager eyes make the scene even more lively.
All night long talk, brilliant lights!
This is absolutely a rare magnificent scene - although it's common in film festivals, it's unheard of, like, hate, appreciate, reject, excited and disdainful because of an art film's point screening... All the emotions begin to bubble up; The most important thing is that the discussion about the "pop drummer", about the plot, about the role and about the artistic creation, has just begun. The aftereffect of this film is beyond imagination. It seems that it is not so simple and crude, and has really triggered a wide range of hot discussions and debates.
The discussion between Don Quixote and his fans is just the tip of the iceberg. During the screening period, he continued to warm up the "pop drummer"; With the discussion of film critics, the highlight of the award season was officially announced.
From Sundance to Venice and then to Toronto, "pop drummer" film reviews wave after wave, raising the audience's expectations step by step; However, the comments of the film festival are only the first wave of front-line feedback, which is relatively limited. The real comments can only be revealed after the film is officially released
Some films are highly praised in the film festival, but when they are officially released, they are far lower than expected; Some films have been criticized in the film festival, but after they were officially released, they received a word-of-mouth attack; Of course, there are also some films with excellent word-of-mouth from the film festival all the way to full release.
It's a mule, it's a horse, it's just a matter of going out for a walk“ "Pop drummer" is no exception.
Now it's time to walk the horse.
"Cold blooded. Cruelty. Violent. True. Complex. Profound. This is definitely not another "black swan", and "pop drummer" presents another side of art in a fierce and primitive manner: bloody and red fruit. It's like the process of breaking a cocoon to become a butterfly. Blood is dripping from the body to the spirit, and I feel the sense of tearing. "
"Strength! Color! Light! From the screen to the characters, from the rhythm to the plot, Damien chazere shows a rare talent as a director. He really combines the drum with the whole film perfectly. It's a masterpiece of the year that can't be missed! The shock at the end is the best in the past five years! "
"Brilliant! freely flowing style of writing! like nature itself -- highest quality! Best of the year so far
Even after experiencing the praise frenzy of Sundance and the return of Venice and Toronto, the "pop drummer" has undoubtedly become the favorite of film critics again, and the praise and praise of professional film critics have come all-round. As expected, this work has undoubtedly been promoted to the first group in the award season.
Among them, the independent film magazine "voice of the village" is the most representative.
"Gifted, brilliant! Damien chazere shows his unique understanding of rhythm and melody through this work. Starting with the drum, he really binds the breath of the protagonist and the audience together through editing. After creating a strong impact on the physical level, he makes an unimaginable wave of reflection and precipitation on the spiritual level, The shock after the double impact gives the film a rare viewing experience. This is a height that few works can reach.
Bloody, brutal, rough, cruel. When the audience feels strong discomfort, even vomiting and fainting in the process of watching the film, this is exactly what Damien chazere hopes to achieve. The sharp pain of boxing into the flesh makes the audience enter the world of drumming in an unreasonable way, and then transmits the core of the film, This is definitely a rare experience in recent years - the benchmarking work should not be "black swan", but Darren arenovsky's other work "Requiem of dreams".
The most important thing is that Langley Hall's superb acting creates the effect of enchantment, which has become the absolute core of the whole film. It not only perfectly implements Damien chazere's creative intention, but also makes the impossible possible; It also gives the characters more possibilities to interpret - but this deviation is also the reason why the integrity of the whole work is slightly inaccurate, which is the only imperfection in the perfection. "
The comments of "Village Voice" convey their attitude and views to the audience in the most concise way: why is this an excellent work.
The reason why the commentary of "Village Voice" is the most representative is that they accurately analyzed the film itself, and also mentioned the core reason for the success of the whole film: Damien chazere and Langley hall. The perfect cooperation between the director and the actor made a good work.
As the focus of the focus, lanli is undoubtedly the core of all comments.
"Delicate and vivid, concise and profound, graceful and wonderful. Watching the performance of Langley hall is like enjoying a grand ballet performance. It is a complete enjoyment. The tremor from the soul is expounding the beauty and pride of art. As an audience, can we ask for more? "
"From the lines to the actions to the expressions, Langley Hall's performance seems effortless, but it gives Andrew a fresh and real soul. He created a cold-blooded devil with the intention to make the audience hate the role; But when the climax of the last scene comes, all the negative emotions turn into shock and exclamation. The profundity and complexity of that look can be called a magic stroke. He did it again
"Any words of praise become commonplace in front of his performance. Most of the time in the movie, he hides himself in the drum beat, with his convergent shoulders, drooping chin and twinkling eyes. It seems that the whole person is hiding in the dark, but even so, he still can't erase the mark he left, even his fingertips can feel the power of performance. When the mask is removed and the transformation is really completed, the tension of art is so gushing out that he truly interprets the perfection of art. Langley hall, the soul of the whole movie. "
"Every time he appears in the camera, his eyes are focused on him. It's hard to imagine that even if he has been active on the big screen for such a long time, he can still present that kind of fresh, vivid, primitive and ferocious performance, just like the original stone without any polishing and processing. In the rampage, he was smashed and bleeding, while the bloody smell was bubbling, it also conveyed the complexity of the soul. Is there anything else Langley hall can't do? I don't think so. "
