一戰再戰

3.3⭐屬於另類電影，唔算好藝術靜態，但又唔係好通俗易明，亦相信戲中包含唔少政治隱喻，美國觀眾可能會明白多啲或感受深啲，如美墨邊境牆、墨西哥非法移民問題等等。有啲角色同劇情不明所以，可能小弟領悟力低或唔識欣賞。😅 電影中最令我印象深刻同欣賞嘅係里安納度狄卡比奧嘅演技同怪雞嘅配樂。PS.• 辛潘真係好縐😅• 片長太長了• 認為冇需要睇 IMAX

This movie is the grittier more chaotic version of another Anderson’s movies (Wes Anderson). The characters are goofy in a good way where they juxtapose against a dirty, intense political satirical world.One Battle After Another might be PTA’s fastest paced film. It harkens back to last year’s Oscar winner Anora. It opens sharp and never lets you off the hook. The cast in the earlier parts didn’t grip me too much, except for Sean Penn’s oddball militarized energy. I find the romantic chemistry between DiCaprio and newcomer Teyana Taylor unconvincing. Separately they serve the story fine, but together I couldn’t see pass DiCaprio just being his usual whacky self in other movies. I find his character and performance both a bit lackluster compare to other characters in the film.The film’s strongest parts are its heightened depiction of militarized white supremacy. It is almost absurd in its portrayal, but PTA manages to ground the direction enough to make the suspense really tick. Whenever they are on screen, you feel a strong sense of tension and urgency that glues the contrasting tone together.PTA is also very good at writing naturalistic and interesting dialogue exchange. His characters might be absurd and often very dramatic to the point of caricature, but he manages to ground them in a way that makes them very believable. Almost like you are watching an eccentric personalities from documentaries.As always I’m not the biggest fan of how PTA uses music. It is very subjective. But his love for atonal piano music as a usual go-to style is often counter immersive to how I connect with movies.The direction in the movie is generally very strong. I love his dedication to the filmic gritty look, though this time the close ups are a bit too overdone in my opinion.My favourite scene is the last chase scene, featuring some of the best uses of long lens shots, simply masterfully done. The visual storytelling, use of terrain, and pacing are insanely well crafted in that utterly intense sequence.This movie to me, adds to the collection of “good movies that I don’t wanna watch again”. I probably wouldn’t watch it outside of being a theatrical experience.Verdict: 77

一開始個女主角真係好醜，頭20分鐘？睇得好辛苦第二個女主角一出場即刻開心返，leonardo 個角色好搞笑，配角啲內心戲都好好，完全唔覺差唔多3個鐘，我收貨

唔好係黑人就話佢靚先得㗎個女主角真係好樣衰成單嘢好唔make sense定係鬼佬口味/現實就係咁?

我會講，今次PTA無令人失望。我會形容他今次執行是令人目不暇給，雖然故設比較他之前作品，比較大眾化，但他卻可以將這樣大師藝術功架精準去融入，每一幕也雕琢得好有獨特韻味，一點也沒因過於遷就市場而拍得四不像。我會講，他今次既有作為電影大師應有風範，而同時也有注入新的元素，兩者之間均可兼得。的確在今套戲中，有好多設定，也好有PTA自己對當下美國社會政治睇法，這樣添加的確令套戲的質感大大地提升，而他也玩得好手到擒來，不留一點可扣分的位。而技藝方面，這套在各方面也是無懈可擊，無論是配樂、剪接、攝影均是。我會講，這套好需要睇IMAX，因為純粹最後這場飛車追逐，已經值回IMAX票價，我會形容，如果罪人們是精彩的，而這套最少是他同一水平。演員方面，三巨頭的演繹也是精彩，各自也散發出影帝的功架。其中個人最喜歡辛潘今次的演繹。他戲中這份燥動演得好有層次。痴·影·夢·藝 X 的專頁 https://www.facebook.com/ckwunmovie/

故事題材幾特別，講述一群對自由特別理念的暴力反政府團伙，他們對政府自覺不妥的政策進行暴力對抗，在政府強力量之下，他們敗走和四竄躲避潛伏。在社會另一階層，郤存在一伙有權力和財富的白人，組成維護和延續固有利益的團伙，利用政府這個權力機器去保護他們，並清除障礙者。他們的糾纏由三名父女關係發展故意的趣味性。個人覺得黑人母女表現更吸引，反社會和領導才能是天生的，他們對自由絕對争取，並富對人性的洞悉力。而小李子毫無吸引力，酗酒和濫藥，只能當個追隨者。久違了的辛潘吸引力倒不少，目標為本的軍人本色，尾端的解釋和黑人女子感情互動，真係只要自己相信，什麼話都可以說，政客本色。個人覺得本電影吸引之處在於電影題材，和表達方法，暴力抗爭不是推翻政府，而是表達不滿，這顯然是不正確的表達方法，必受到政府終身追捕，禍害家人好友。那黑人母女太有美感了。
