Revolutionary Road

情节很有张力，对白隽永，导演成功地让观众感到压抑和无力
关于这部片子，我很赞同刘瑜的评论，小隐隐于巴黎，大隐隐于闹市。转换环境固然有助于改变心态，但能够改变心态的话也就不必非得转换环境了。
就像我，回到这个操蛋透顶的国家，几年下来，不也活得不错嘛J

Ladri di Biciclette
偷自行车的人

第一，偷窃自行车如此猖獗的地方，停车怎么会不上锁？
第二，主人公一家仅靠儿子打童工创造现金流，为了赎回自行车就得典当所有的床单。。。穷到这个份上居然还住着几居室的房子，看来资本主义倒也不算万恶。
第三，意大利电影貌似很喜欢塞点教堂、通灵者之类的元素。
第四，社会主义国家都喜欢拿这部1948年的电影来作为揭露资本主义国家的意识形态宣传工具，不是没有道理——只可惜五十多年来，生活在水深火热之中的意大利人民始终没有觉悟来推翻这万恶的制度。

An Education
成长教育

25岁的Carey Mulligan扮演一个高中生，粉雕玉啄的样子真是我见犹怜。她把这个角色的虚荣、沉溺、惊诧、彷徨演绎得非常到位，并因此获得奥斯卡最佳女主角提名。
除了男主角之外，这部戏里的大小主角配角或个性突出，或靓丽养眼，个个可圈可点，就算是女主角的女同学们也憨态可掬，我特别喜欢那个拉丁人面相的小女伴。
唯一不足的是剧本弱了些，比如家有妻室的David为什么要向小女孩求婚，这不是迟早要穿帮的吗？
这部片子也进一步验证了一条真理：电影（中国电影也许除外）里的每一个细节都是导演编剧刻意让观众看到的。比如David载女主角全家去订婚晚餐，路上开进Esso加油，我一边看一边想：看来这顿饭吃不成了。。。。。。果不其然。

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II

看着哈利波特系列中的最后一部，仿佛回到了十年前看第一部的时代。时光飞逝，这部电影仿佛串起了人生中的点点片段：第一部时我在哪里，第二部时身边是谁，第三部时在哪儿工作。。。。。。
皆大欢喜的结局，引人回味。

将爱情进行到底

张一白很善于讲故事，这部片子也不例外，一口气为电视剧版续了三种不同的结局。
怎么说呢，这三个故事都有张氏的诡异风格，相对而言第二个更贴近生活一些——毕竟很少有人住在打通的两个studio里，也很少有人今天接到法国来电明天就能搞定申根签证飞过去。
不管贫穷还是富有，不管国内还是国外，生活中都有爱，都有问题，都让人揪心，也都存在教人怦然心动的一刻
C’est la vie
C’est la amour

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I

我喜欢这部里的卡通部分，此外三个人乔装魔法部职员那段也很有意思。

3.5

梅兰芳

这部片子的几位配角都很出彩：王学圻的京韵口音、孙红雷的日益狂放、章子怡的明媚娇婉，可就是男主角太过温吞水。
从剧情结构来看，既缺少主人公成名前的奋斗，又缺少解放后的经历——敢情梅大师的艺术生命尽在民国绽放——这就使这部电影注定不如《霸王别姬》那样跌宕起伏、高潮迭起。
PS：在纽约的海报中，梅兰芳的名字居然是用拼音拼写的，让我恍若隔世。
再借用一句别人的评论：假如你在黎明露面之前提前退场，那么留在你记忆里的可能是一部很好看甚至很牛逼的片子。

失恋33天

让子弹飞

盛名之下，其实难副。我觉得这部片子情节冗杂，不如《太阳照样升起》简洁深刻——而且居然连配乐都照抄《太阳照样升起》。
还有一点：不知为什么，这部片子的摄像经常对不准焦。

Edward Scissorhands

这部1990年的片子风格的确很九十年代；
Johnny Depp和Wynona Ryder是戏里戏外的金童玉女，不过那时谁也想不到十几年之后Johnny Depp会因加勒比海盗大红大紫，而Wynona Ryder居然会因为在商场里偷衣服而被诉以重罪
可能属于一根筋吧，我一边看一边就在想现实问题：Edward终年独居高阁，他的能量从哪里来？
Edward自幼闭门不出，他修剪出来的各种物件形象是从哪里获得的？

这部老电影给我的两点惊奇，一是故事情节可以如此跳跃，彼此互无关联；二是1972年的作品居然就有大胆的露点镜头。箍了一下，原来当年导演李翰祥忽悠女主角狄娜，说这场床戏拍的是远景，有薄纱相隔，狄娜出于义气，全裸出镜，没想到李大导演暗中放了一组近景镜头。。。。。。

No Country for Old Men

讲原则有洁癖的杀人狂、沉着冷静的越战老兵、注重细节的智能型杀手、经验丰富但依然无能为力的老警官，四个人轮番登场，这部追杀片的情节从设计到调度都十分精彩。
科恩兄弟的影片总在验证同一个道理：世间的不确定性太大，偷鸡很容易蚀把米。

Central Station

这部片子当年肯定看过，但居然没有在历年影评中找到它，那就趁着重看一遍写两笔吧。
这可以归为一部公路片。瑜不掩瑕，其情节比较煽情，有些地方明显是在追求艺术片效果或者说冲着评奖去的（比如那场朵拉晕倒前的弥撒场景），得严肃批评一下；优点是对巴西乡村的草根式描绘非常生动——据说导演是拍纪录片出身。
看片子的时候同伴问我这部片有什么吸引人的，我说巴西人的生活很有意思，如此而已。
小男孩叫约书亚，他老爸叫耶稣，他俩哥哥叫摩西和以赛亚。我看到不少影评连篇累牍地挖掘其中的含义，比如有人声小男孩找老爸就是“寻找福音”，而最终找到了哥哥则说明他获得了“启示”。我觉得这完全不着调，纯粹是扯淡。导演编剧随手起的一串名字，就会被这些雕虫们肆意曲解，真是挺。。。有意思的。

十月围城

这是一部爱国题材的主旋律影片：我们的幸福生活和红色江山是无数革命先烈抛头颅洒热血换来的。

Nights of Cabiria

影片展示了资本主义制度下广大社会底层妇女饱受身心摧残的悲惨现实，全面揭露了资本主义社会的腐朽本质，但也宣扬了资产阶级鼓吹的那套爱情至上观念，希望广大工农兵观众有选择性地观摩批判。

寅次郎的故事第30回：恋爱专家

1982年的作品，如今都可以当古装片看了
少女时代的田中裕子好好清纯耶，现如今《苍穹之昴》中慈禧的眉目之间依稀可以看到她三十年前的影子。
最搞笑的部分莫过于那段相亲，从寅次郎向三郎说戏，到寅次郎与三郎排练，再到寅次郎把台词完全颠覆，笑点不断，山田洋次也太能调动气氛了
一开始的串烧舞台剧，音乐结尾酷似《武田信玄》的片头曲，一看演职员表，果然是山本直纯的作品

隐剑鬼爪

看到很多熟面孔，很亲切！
中国影迷的老朋友、山田洋次的御用女星倍赏千惠子可真大牌，整场戏居然没给过观众一个正脸；
《三丁目的夕阳》男主角吉冈秀隆据说是倍赏千惠子的干儿子，没事就去其位于北海道的豪宅给老太太捶腿。这回在戏里演她的女婿，丈母娘看女婿想必是越看越欢喜的；
《大奥》和《天地人》里的高岛礼子扮演一位千方百计牺牲自己营救丈夫的传统日本女性典范，戏份不多，但我觉得比女主角还出彩；
其实这部戏我最期待的是老戏骨绪形拳，可惜他的戏份也不多，扮演的角色又太过卑劣猥琐。
山田洋次的这组幕末三部曲情节都很简单，重在通过细节表现特殊的时代、特殊的故事和特殊的感情。片中令人会心感叹的细节处理俯拾皆是，展现了日本电影的特点与水准。

Mao's Last Dancer

讲故事的节奏掌握得很好。
压轴的母子团圆很煽情，场景调度很有张力（不过张领事的出现有点煞风景，给我一种生造大团圆结局的感觉）
难得看到澳洲片，其中国部分仿佛是中国人在演绎，说明洋导演在不同文化风格间转换自如。
该剧在中国禁演，可我看不出其中有什么低俗反动的元素。。。难道是因为在银幕上首次出现了江青同志。。。禁这个，封那个，这个政权真有底气，真得民心，真有长寿之兆！

狄仁杰之通天帝国

场面很宏大，一定在计算机上花了不少钱。
梁家辉正在向老戏骨称号迈进。
李冰冰色艺俱佳，只是不明白她怎么会莫名其妙爱上乏善可陈的刘德华。
刘嘉玲的表演中规中矩，最后半小时还算有张力。
邓超个性模糊，只有白化病比较抢眼。
逆党截获了邓超，非得让他活着见刘德华最后一面，还要把马和工程图留下。。。要不就是他们脑筋搭错，要么就是编剧熬夜太迟。
总的来说仍属很不错的娱乐片，有拍前传和续集的潜质。

郭涛和田原合唱的《为什么呢》从歌词到画面都超搞笑，不过和后面的串烧比起来就只能算是暖场了。这是全剧让我最忍俊不止的一段。
三个男人打蛋花那段有点重复，不再具有笑点，倒是苗圃瞪大眼睛冒出一句“狗日的”很有效果。苗圃在这部戏里可真算是不顾形象不计血本倾情演出。

12 Angry Men

当年刚出国时看过一遍，如今重看这部1957年的老片，脑海中不断浮现出一句老生常谈：电影里的每个微小的细节都是导演有意让你看到的。
不足之处在于：感觉那个时代演员表演还不够自然，动作普遍都有点大。

南京！南京！

富有视觉冲击与情感震撼
范伟把小知识分子演得很到位，他的演艺事业终于有了一个良好的开端J
不过唐先生的死有点突兀，影片没有交代清楚他为什么要把生的希望让给一个未作铺陈的同事，也没有说明为什么日军必须枪毙他而不枪毙避难所里留下的其他中国职员——也许相关情节被亲爱的电影审查部门英明地删去了吧。
唐太太的戏份不多，却把人物形象勾勒得十分鲜明，范伟与秦岚可真是一对模范夫妻啊！
与其让高圆圆几次三番去认领“自己的男人”，最后为此送了命，为什么不发动在场的其他妇女去认领呢？
摄制组在长影搭建了一座废墟作为场景，可是它被翻来覆去地使用，貌似南京城就只有这么大。
民族屈辱感在日军入城式上达到了顶点：异族在我们的废墟上舞蹈，这正是陆川着力表现的。

喜宴
(The Wedding Banquet)

李安讲故事的特点是细腻，但细腻的故事往往容易发闷，所以李安的影片必须有很强的情节主线，否则就会拍成淡而无味的《推手》、《冰风暴》或者《卧虎藏龙》。《喜宴》和《饮食男女》的剧情编得跌宕起伏出人意料，加上李氏独有的众多暖人小细节，便能够从宏观到微观打动观众了。
郎雄老先生端的是演什么像什么，在《喜宴》中演一位退役师长，在饭店遇到旧部那一段，很有长官派头，与《饮食男女》中的大厨有天壤之别。
归亚蕾与赵文瑄母子在病房外对话那段长镜头从台词、表演到调度都很得宜，把母亲的心理逆转刻画得非常到位。
尽管影片表现的是同性恋，但由婚外情导致意外怀孕所带来的情感冲击与创伤是置之四海而皆准的。
这部影片拿到金熊奖可以说是名至实归。

李米的猜想

滤掉一切戏剧化的情节，这是一个很美好也很令人无奈的爱情故事。
真不觉得这部电影有什么特别的好（剧情太假，劫车篇幅太长，王宝强太傻，周迅太做作），但它恰恰撩动了我深埋心底的脆弱之弦——所以，就给个4分吧。
（太文艺腔了是吧：-）
说到文艺腔，那个戴着蛤蟆镜和披肩假发，操着夹生普通话念叨“湖底对自己是无底的/岸对自己也无岸”的家伙跳下立交桥真令人心情一振。这样的文艺青年（他的“诗”繁琐而罗嗦）世界上越少越好。

入殓师

表演很细腻：男主人公给逝者涂口红前，首先在自己手腕上试了一下。这个动作对女人固然很正常，但作为男人就相当少见，从而表现出他一丝不苟的专业精神；紧接着镜头拉向男主人公身后的社长，脸上露出一丝难以察觉的微笑，表现他对徒弟工作的认可。只一个镜头，两位主人公的内心世界跃然镜上。
剧本有点夸张：从小处来看，男主人公第一次处理遗体后去浴室洗澡，慌乱间香皂两次脱手。脱手一次已足以表现急躁心情，两次就过了；从大处来看，男主人公表示不愿去追悼撇下老婆孩子私奔的父亲，秘书立马现身说法，说她也曾经抛弃过幼女私奔。这个桥段虚假得过分，讲故事的痕迹太浓：一家三个人的微型公司，居然有两个人遭遇了家人因外遇而出走，几率未免太低了。
本木雅弘演这部片子真不容易，入殓与大提琴可都不是简单手艺。好在本木干得很不错，入殓的手法娴熟老道——随手就能将薄被整齐地折好，大提琴的揉弦也像模像样。
广末凉子演的女主人公是典型的日本好太太，对于丈夫失业、巨额借贷、搬回乡下老家均不置一词，微笑着相伴相随——问题在于，这样的珍稀物种这年头不是早已灭绝了吗:)
也许，应该归功于她是个技术背景的女生，比较朴实厚道吧:)
影片配乐很棒，一看演职员表，果然，照例是久石让的作品。
这部片子居然是在中国首映的（大连的金鸡百花电影节），当时的译名很冗长，叫《为逝者送行的人》。

Burn After Reading

科恩兄弟喜欢塑造“傻瓜”角色，影射现实中自以为是的人们：坚定地以为自己做出了正确决定，其实纯属头脑简单、偏执冲动。
总结一下，George Clooney是一个空心大萝卜，Brad Pitt整个一二愣子，Frances McDormand是典型的一根筋白痴女，Tilda Swinton是自私冷酷的bitch一条，John Malkovich可以放心地归类为疯子
整个片子就是一组残忍、利落、恶毒的笑话，但看起来真过瘾！

Chop Shop

一个非法移民童工的生活写真：
他为修车铺招揽生意打杂，有空有活时出去打份零工，有空没活时在地铁上扮失学儿童卖糖果，兼卖盗版DVD，
有时出去小偷小摸点东西回来三文不值两文卖点小钱；
总之他永远都在奔忙，努力攒钱想买辆流动餐车自己开个小买卖，却被人杀熟赚走了4500美元；
与不知什么关系的姐姐相依为命，这位姐姐社会交际品流复杂，白天在流动餐车里帮厨，晚上给男人干点口活挣钱；
修车一条街污水横流，各色外来移民勉力讨生活；
作为非法移民，他没有身份不能在银行开户，存了钱只能放在罐头里藏起来——金融服务匮乏啊；
最后，他撞破了姐姐上夜班，姐姐大怒；次日清晨，姐姐百无聊赖地坐在铺子门前；他拿玉米粒招来群鸽，逗她开心；姐姐往前迈步跺脚，群鸽惊起，影片嘎然而止。
记得的情节就是这些了。

Che Part II: Guerilla

Steven Soderbergh把传记片拍成了纪录片；Benicio Del Toro把他自己变成了格瓦拉。
影片看似平淡冗长，却紧紧抓住了观众的兴奋点，让观众的心情如格瓦拉领导的革命般走向低潮，又在低潮中保持着信念的力量。

3.5

John Rabe
（拉贝日记）

《拉贝日记》的成功之处在于：它是一部德国人拍的讲述德国人在南京大屠杀中经历的德国电影。影片没有哭着喊着向观众控诉日军的残忍和战争的丑恶，而是首先试图展示一个德国人在人道主义灾难降临之际的感受、反应、选择、行动和勇气，通过对渺小个体的刻画来展现宏大历史事件的一角，这是中国同类电影需要借鉴学习的。
拉贝思想斗争半天，拿出了五万多美元的积蓄捐给安全区买食物救急，临了抽了一叠自己留着——这个桥段非常真实地表现了人性，在我们国家的电影里估计看不到。
张静初的故事比较离奇。如果追逐她的日军士官单枪匹马，我还可以勉强接受；可影片安排一个没摸过枪的孩子弹无虚发连杀两人，这就仿佛令人置身于童话世界——南京大屠杀当然不是一个童话。
日本演员方面，香川照之演绎的亲王形象入木三分，其他则马马虎虎。那个小濑少佐明显是虚构的人物，影片没有为他配置足够的资源，观众也就难以信服这样的人物在现实中存在。

Diarios de motocicleta

讲述格瓦拉青年时代与朋友游走南美洲接触劳苦大众并逐渐形成革命志向的传记式影片，有不少仿纪录片式的手持镜头。
“革命不应是简单的模仿，而应有独创性！”简单平实的语言，可是有多少国家在这上面栽足了跟头啊！
熟悉的布宜诺斯艾利斯街道、恬静的巴里洛奇湖区，不时让我想起雅致而不失活力的阿根廷；而马丘比丘附近突兀山丘与如镜平原组成的山谷地形则再次让我对秘鲁产生了浓厚兴趣。

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

这部《哈利波特与混血王子》情节比较散，缺乏主线，要不是最后Snape莫名其妙跳出来承认他就是混血王子，观众可能早就忘记了这个标题。
《混血王子》是哈利波特大结局之前的承前启后之作，作用不在于讲述一个相对独立的故事，而是为大结局做好铺垫。所以，电影拍成这么半半拉拉，一多半是J.K. Rowling的过错，同时也得怪编剧和导演过于死脑筋，把电影当电视剧拍。
依我看，反正最后一部要拍上下集，还不如连着这一部拍上中下集更有意义。

太阳照样升起
(The Sun Also Rises)

这是一部生气勃勃的悲剧。影片中弥漫着姜文式的英雄主义气息，但最终，一切美好的东西都毁灭于无形。
片名的隐喻出现在片尾：婴儿降生于一片唯美的花海中，一轮朝阳在戈壁上跃起。但从故事结构来看，这其实是故事的开始。故事的真正结局是一声枪响、生命的终结以及纯真浪漫爱情的幻灭。所以，故事要表达的并不是经过了这一切后太阳照样升起，而是太阳曾经如此美好地升起过。
无论是戈壁的婚礼狂欢、陈冲的千娇百媚（BTW：陈冲与黄秋生在病床边的那场对话更像话剧而不像电影）还是周韵的疯癫与坚韧，影片都表现得很到位，在场景调度和剧情节奏上，姜文的导演才能通过这部电影得到了充分释放。
配乐很出色，原来是久石让的作品，难怪。
你可以说这部电影了无新意，是在用《Pulp Fiction》
的旧瓶装伤痕文学的旧酒。但至少，这是个很有意思的旧瓶，很有回味的旧酒，组合成一部很好看的电影。谁说好电影都得横空出世，带动一轮新浪潮？
据说公映时许多观众反映看不懂，要求重放一遍。脉络如此清晰、诉求如此明确的一部影片，如果都看不懂，重放一遍我看也不会有什么帮助。那样的一小撮人民群众还是回家坐在沙发上一边看电视节目一边淌着口水打盹儿去吧。

纵横四海
(Once A Thief)

小时候没觉得这么好看嘛！
情节、动作与喜剧气氛之间的平衡拿捏得恰到好处，可以说是导演吴宇森的巅峰之作，也代表了香港娱乐片的最高水平。
周与张国荣穿过布满红外线的暗室，比Entrapment出现类似构思要早好几年，而周润发坐着轮椅与钟楚红跳舞那场戏，不禁令人想起后来的Scent of Woman，实在是香港电影中的经典片段。

左右
(In Love We Trust)

Sex and the City, the Movie

Smart screenplay, just perfect pace, well-concocted lines. A paradigm of commercial movie!
I especially admire Samantha’s reckless but adamant pursuit of unknown love. I don’t think I could be as intrepid.
Miranda: Men are like cabs, when they are available, their lights are on. They wake up one day, decide to settle down and they turn their lights on. The next woman they pick up is the one they’ll marry. It’s not FATE! It’s DUMB LUCK! It’s all about timing, you got to get them when their lights on!
Carrie: I am someone who is looking for love, real love，ridiculous, inconvenient, consuming, can't-live-without-each-other love.
Carrie: I got to thinking about relationships. There are those that open you up to something new and exotic, those that are old and familiar, those that bring up lots of questions, those that bring you somewhere unexpected, those that bring you far from where you started, and those that bring you back. But the most exciting, challenging and significant relationship of all is the one you have with yourself. And if you can find someone to love the you you love, well, that's just fabulous.
Carrie: Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the person, we will know how to be grateful.

4.5

云水谣
(The Knot)

剧本编得不错，巧妙地给负心汉编织了完美的籍口——Well，还是我的那句口头禅：天下的男人就没一个好的！
剧本的缺点在于前后不平衡，台湾的戏重了，大陆的戏轻了；徐若瑄的戏重了，未免对李冰冰不太公平。小李同学在整个片子里居然没有一次完美亮相，一直素面朝天。不过虽然戏份不多，还是让她演出了金娣的个性，表扬一下——不过上海小姑娘竟会大胆地主动表白喜欢上了一个男子，就算是她经过了革命大熔炉的锻炼，我还是不太相信的。
朱茵同学怎么就突然老得不能看了，我一直把梁洛施当成了朱茵，还傻乎乎地赞叹化妆师的功力呢，最后才知道原来朱茵演的是小徐的老妈。

永远的三丁目的夕阳
(Always Sunset on Third Street)

我是先看第二集后才回过头来看的第一集，感觉不如第二集——也许是因为许多情节已经知道了——主要原因是第一集非常“漫画化”，对情感的挖掘不如第二集那么细腻；第一集取得成功后，第二集制作起来就有了比较明朗的风格，不像第一集尚处于摸索阶段。
扮演淳之介富商老爸的小日向文世在2007年的大河剧《风林火山》中演过取访赖重，也就是后来断送武田家族的武田信赖的外公，也是个小配角。小日向文世长着一张让你看见就想踢上一脚的脸，他扮演的角色自杀也好、受挫也好，正好可以满足现代文明人的潜在兽欲——多么高尚的演员啊！

Babel

从表象来看，片中所有的痛苦都直接或间接地来自一支猎枪。换个角度，三个故事反映的是形形色色的沟通障碍：聋哑人与正常人之间的鸿沟、基督教世界与伊斯兰国家之间的隔阂、盎格鲁-撒克逊人与拉丁民族之间的文化差异。我们就这样生活在被各种障碍隔绝的孤岛中，尽管每个人都没做错什么，但彼此的矛盾却在积累。。。。。。

Atonement

除了敦刻尔克的长镜头以及女作家最后揭示男女主角的真实命运略微震撼人心以外，片子整体上比较平庸，与媒体的热捧相去甚远。
倒是在Yahoo上看到一个美国人的影评很咂劲：
Obviously I’m too shallow and obtuse to grasp this fine artistic masterpiece the pros saw. What a waste. Guess I’ll sit home and wait for Transformers II...

Obsluhoval Jsem Anglického Krále
（我伺候过英国国王）

中欧的片子比较另类，这一部是奔着奥斯卡最佳外语片去的。风趣幽默固然有之，可看性也不错，但深度明显不够，主人公撒硬币引人出丑的桥段重复太多，太不可信。另外，它的片名实在有点偏题。

导演Francis Ford Coppola让自己的女儿Sofia演教父的女儿实在是个失败，倒是Bridget Fonda演的美女记者的傲人身材叫人眼前一亮，不愧是名门之后。
再就是得表扬一下Talia Shire，在第一集里她被当导演的哥哥塞进来跑龙套，演一个丑陋而单薄的幼齿，在第二集里演一个空虚少妇，到了第三集成了丰采内敛的雍容老妇，沉着自若地毒死了自己的教父。Two Thumbs Up, Talia!

天与地

除了堪称恢宏的混战场景——并非用电脑特技生成，而是雇了三千多群众演员用一个多月拍出来的——这部电影实在没有什么值得称道之处。
第四次川中岛合战是早已被日本人拍滥了的故事，战役始末观众都很清楚。以我看过的三个版本而言，在战略描述与过程交代方面，《武田信玄》最差，讲了半天连什么叫“啄木鸟战法”都没说明白，《天与地》勉强把故事讲清楚了，但仍不如2007年的大河剧《风林火山》；在情节方面，《天与地》莫名其妙地杜撰了宇佐美乃美这个人物以及她与上杉谦信之间若有若无的情感戏，又加入了上杉与武田在雪中邂逅、上杉射杀武田侧室八重等桥段，但这些枝节对整个剧情并没有产生什么影响，纯属画蛇添足；
在人物刻画方面，除了两位主人公，《天与地》中的人物都很模糊，如山本勘助，如武田信繁，如宇佐美定满，如柿崎景家。影片似乎想要表现这些重要人物的性格，但在如此浩大的战争画卷中显得无能为力，这些人物的相关情节因此成为不得不说的鸡肋故事。相比之下，《武田信玄》与《风林火山》要强得多，譬如《武田信玄》中山本勘助主动断后自我牺牲或者《风林火山》大结局中山本勘助一袭皂袍突入敌阵的形象令人印象深刻——当然，它们是电视剧，具有篇幅上的优势；
最后，在战争场景方面，《天与地》的确称得上是电影史上屈指可数的宏篇巨作，在加拿大的如火枫林与辽阔原野上拍摄外景，耗资20亿日元，即使拿到18年后的今天也是个天文数字；但两部大河剧以较小的视角较小的成本同样成功地演绎了这场激战——拍摄战争场景并非一定要动用成百上千人员然后用直升机航拍长镜头慢慢推，关键是导演的想象力和摄影师的独特眼光，而《天与地》显然欠缺这两项。

1.5

Uzicka Republika
（67天）

这是部74年的老片子，与《黑名单上的人》同一个年代，里面还有《黑》中的特务头子和德国将军的女儿，分别饰演保皇军头目和女游击队员。
南斯拉夫片在表现战争场面时很有一套，讲究细节，也很真实，值得一看。但这部接近三小时的戏整体上比较拖沓，重点不突出，完全可以快进着看。结尾部分处理得不错，壮烈牺牲的老面包师所抚养的儿童以及在战火中迅速成长起来的一对游击队伴侣幸存了下来，在铁托的领导下走上了新的征途，给予观众以希望。无论观看过程中打了多少个哈欠，只要最后令人振奋就好——反正观众都是健忘的

小武

影片讲述一个小偷挣扎在社会底层的生存状态，大致可以分为三大板块：小武向友情、爱情和亲情寻找慰藉，但先后碰壁，“事业转型”的昔日同伙拒绝接受他的结婚礼金；看似结交于贫贱的歌厅女友无声无息地弃他而去；他把没来得及送出手的金戒指送给父母，却被张罗着给二儿子娶城里媳妇的父母当作镀金戒指转眼间戴到了媳妇手上，还操起棒子骂他忤逆不孝把他赶出了家门
片尾营造了一连串黑色幽默：小武正在紧张“工作”，女友联络他用的呼机突然响起，导致小武被捕，收到的却不过是条天气预报；民警好心给被拘捕的小武打开电视，新闻里播放的却是“惯犯梁小武”被人民群众抓获大快人心的采访报道；而在这个最不如意的时刻，居然终于收到了失踪数日的女友发来的一条意在表达歉意与祝福的信息：祝你万事如意！
两条语录：
基斯洛夫斯基：摄影机越接近现实越有可能接近虚假
贾樟柯：由纪实技术生产出来的所谓真实，很可能遮蔽隐藏在现实秩序中的真实。而方言、非职业演员、实景、同期录音直至长镜头并不代表真实本身，有人完全有可能用以上元素按方配制一副迷幻药，让你迷失于鬼话世界

I don't like the story but Sean Penn and Tim Robbins performed so well!

这里的黎明静悄悄

This is a classic Russia movie I first watched during childhood.

3.5

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl

Seabiscuit

The director was trying to pack too much into this already two-hour long movie.

No Man's Land

This is a not-too-bad "good movie"

Bridget Jones Diary II

This is no longer a drama but completely a British comedy

Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire

As always, Harry Potter brings about 90 minutes good time

2.5

Zatoichi

I thought it an art movie and found it beyond my understanding. Then later a Japanese, in laughter, told me it's just a comedy.

2.5

无极
(Promise)

Another comedy mistaken by most as an art movie
无极：年度最佳喜剧

2.5

The Incredibles

A pleasant cartoon

2.5

Gallipoli

An Australian movie on the Gallipoli battle. Mel Gibson was so young then.

2

Dark Water

I don't like horror movies that resort to ghost.

2

Finding Neverland

It is very weakly conveyed how the two fell in love. Not to mention the obviously concocted last stage: how to simulate such a neverland in a house?

2

Intolerable Cruelty

 

1.5

Troy

To watch this kind of movie is a waste of time

After the Sunset

A commercial junk

霸王别姬
(Farewell My Concubine)

The ugliest scene is the best part of this 157-minute epic

5.0

Das Boot:
The Director's Cut

The best movie ever made on submarine, if not the best one on war.

4.9

L'Homme Du Train

(The Man on the Train)

A cold-blooded criminal constantly on move and a wordy emeritus professor tired of boring life in a small town encountered on the eve of bank robbery. Both wish to change to the other party's identity, but life is doomed for everyone.

4.8

切腹
（Harakiri）

Two Japanese ronins, father and son-in-law, visited the same vizir in half a year separately, both threatening to practice hara-kiri, or samurai suicide, in his court. What did they want and what happened?
An excellent history movie on ronins

4.8

2046

A very exquisite production? It doesn't say a word about how he loves the lady in "In Mood of Love" but the whole movie was dedicated on this simple motif.

4.7

L.A. Confidential

A masterpiece forgotten by most

4.6

饮食男女
（Eat Drink Man Woman）

What a pleasant opening, amusing climax and touching ending!

4.5

壬生义士传
(When the Last Sword was Drawn)

In this 2003 movie actor Kiichi Nakai gave the audience an incredibly excellent performance of the last generation samurai Yoshimura Kanichiro, a money-grubbing, penny-pinching rube but meanwhile a skillful and brave warrior who contributed his steadfast loyalty to the moribund Tokugawa Shogun in order to support his family struggling for food in the remote rural area of north Japan. Bushido probably won't make any sense to us, but this movie tells that it does make sense to Japanese once upon a time.

4.4

Cold Mountain

A beautiful but little bit tedious movie narrowly saved by Renee Zellwege

4.3

The Terminal

The best comedy of 2004

4.2

可可西里

(Kekexili)

This is an excellent documentary-style movie on the protection of wild Tibetan antelopes

4.1

天国与地狱

（High and Low）

An excellent drama on kidnapping.  It's a pity that this movie explained too briefly the incentive of the crazy criminal. Otherwise it could have become a great movie.

4.1

影武者

The defeat of Takeda cavalry was oversimplified.

4.0

One Hour Photo

An intriguing small production

4.0

卡拉是条狗
(Cala, My Dog)

A very grass-root story

3.9

20:30:40

A very pleasant movie about women of various ages. It could have been better if there is more interaction between the three separate stories.

3.9

椿三十郎

(Sanjuro)

Three roles that left me with deep impression: The old lady who concentrated on the beauty of camellia when samurais were waiting for fight; the captive who always stepped back to his cell after he expressed his opinion; and of course the ronin samurai, full of wisdom.

3.8

The Insider

This is a type of films that have been produced too many. Being stale is its flaw.

3.7

The Passion of the Christ

The movie is ranked high because it could solicit thoughts:
The regrettable human nature that people always abuse their power to suppress different faith has never changed. What did change, to our comfort, is that people nowadays suppress pagan in a less brutal way, but not much less;
The Jewish police must have been poorly trained, who were low in both efficiency and morale. With armor and weapon they were injured by bare fisted detainees. This was probably due to the status of their colonized nation;
Democracy based on uneducated mass could be easily maneuvered by their populist leaders;
It is very likely that early Christianity preachers made up the story that Roman governor refused to execute Jesus Christ, so as to facilitate their missionary work to Roman Empire.
As in any ancient civilization, the city is shabby but public architecture, especially temple, castle and palace, was grand. This reminds me that the wealth of nation couldn't be merely judged by magnificent public building, which even a weak nation would squeeze its people to own.

3.6

用心棒

(Yojimbo)

Yojimbo means bodyguard in Japanese. In this movie it refers to ronin who was employed to fight for his master

3.5

Inherit the Wind

A paradigm of court movies

3.5

Identity

Well-written screenplay

3.4

Gosford Park

A collection of the best English actors and actresses

3.3

Lost in Translation

Exploring an old topic from a novel point, the young director and screenwriter, Sofia Coppola, is not seasoned enough to delve deeply into the human nature. Instead of being acknowledged for inspiration, Wong Ka Wai should do it himself with Sofia as his aide, which may make it a perfect one. Besides, Scarlett Johansson and Bill Murray were fairly successful with their roles.

3.3

The Gods Must Be Crazy

An innovative and interesting production

3.2

Color of Money

It all happened too suddenly that Paul Newman lost his cunning to Tom Cruise. There should have been more transition.

3.2

爱君如梦

3.1

3.0

日本的悲剧

(A Japanese Tragedy)

This is not just a Japanese tragedy.

2.9

The Gods Must Be Crazy II

 

2.9

Tanguy

A weird story without much deep analysis into the social phenomenon that the western society no longer tolerates a stay-home grown-up. The son's Oriental, especially Chinese, cultural background not at all affects the plot, obviously intended just to add some exotic element. The ending is hasty. The Chinese music it employed was horribly grass-root, to use a nice word. Generally, it's a pleasantly made farce.

2.8

暖

(Nuan)

I was more than often confused between reality and remembrance. The director should have done something to differentiate them.

2.8

春桃
(One Woman For Two)

The simple story could have been better elaborated

2.7

半生缘

(Eighteen Springs)

Too many irrelevant branches are involved. The main story was unavoidably eroded

2.7

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

The screenplay didn't clearly tell the audience that Harry's father and the three others were best friends, who often turned into various animals;
The new director bears a quite different style in presenting only plot that he thought to be important, as well as in focusing on details he regards as crucial;
Daniel, Emma and Rupert are all growing up, while Dumbledore is obviously getting decrepit in this episode...
All these factors affects. And what used to be so perfect a movie series of Harry Potter therefore might seem quite different to some if not most.
None the less, if one never watched the first two episodes, he might like this one. After all, it's often our conservatism that refrain ourselves from appreciating novelty.

2.6

晚春
(Late Spring)

A classic Japanese movie. But the pace is too slow!

2.6

My Cousin Vinny

The horrible thing is: our lawyer friend told us that such lawyer does exist, everywhere!

2.5

变脸

(The King of Masks)

A nice story but not a great movie.

2.5

On the Waterfront

Cannot understand why this mediocre movie was ranked top ten in US movie history

2.4

Lagaan: Once Upon A Time in India

The good thing is that it doesn't have that much boring dance, (but nonetheless incurably lengthy); the bad thing is that it chose too ugly Britons (the caricatured captain has no eye while Elizabeth has no neck). The trio dance between the Indian couple and Eliz is not like a farce, but rather, is a farce.

2.4

手机
(Cell phone)

Cell phone simply fails to improve communication between us

2.3

自娱自乐

(Master of Everything)

A delightful comedy about China's country life and DV fashion

2.3

2.2

Captain Corelli's Mandolin

2.2

一盘没有下完的棋

（An Unfinished Chess Game）

Classics are not necessarily good, like this one. Its flashback structure is poorly organized.

2.1

We Are Soldiers

The problem with this vague war movie is that I don't know what it wants to say. What kept haunting me is: what if VietCom had the same firepower as US did?

2.1

战国英豪/武士勤王记
(The Hidden Fortress)

It's funny but too lengthy

Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow

An interesting sci-fi that reminds one of many classics

1.9

秋天的童话

（An Autumn's Tale）

What a superfluous ending!

1.9

燕尾蝶

(Swallow-tailed Butterfly)

The central point of this surreal movie is: you might be a caterpillar wriggling in mud, but you are by nature to be a beautiful butterfly. You might never become one, but you always are.

1.8

风月

(Temptress Moon)

An absurd story

1.7

The Last Samurai

Several fundamental and fatal errors committed by either side:
Why didn't Omura also arrest Katsumoto's guards when he arrested the Katsumoto?
Why didn't Omura investigate in advance the terrain behind the hill that Katsumoto ambushed his troops?
Why did Omura order his infantry to march without artillery clearing the enemy position?
Why did Katsumoto order his cavalry to charge? The reason they managed to broke through for a while was that their enemy firepower was not enough. After Omura used machinegun, the battle became a massacre.
Conclusion: it's a very stupid movie.

1.7

日本之夜与雾
（Japan in Night and Fog）

This movie spent two hours to show commonsense about students’ political movement, which makes me recall TianAnMen Crashdown of China. They are simply unable to accomplish anything but capable enough to spoil everything.

1.6

Master and Commander: The Far Side of The World

This movie doesn't make much sense at all. I don't know what's it talking about.

1.6

芬妮的微笑
(On the Other Side of the Bridge)

This is a movie that its leading role actor criticized it during its preview. What a waste of such a good topic.

1.5

座头市与用心棒

(Zatoichi & Yojimbo)

The two actors acted well but the plot is not well written

1.4

American Wedding

What a vulgar farce!

1.3

Once Upon a Time in Mexico

It is commented as the "sexiest movie" To whom? Primary school girls?

1.3

Trapped in Paradise

Why did Nicolas Cage get involved in such comedy?

Being John Malkovich

Among the most creative movies, it's a mind storm to the audience.

4.9

The Hours

Probably the best feminism movie ever made. The three actresses are excellent, so are its actors; the photography linkage between three stories are natural and pleasant; the language used in three ages are genuine; and the some of them are soul stirring. I treat it as an epic.
BTW, the final music is so touching as if it's composed for the movie.

4.8

The Shawshank Redemption

The mutual mishap with Shawshank and Pulp Function was that they came in the same year with Forest Gump.

4.8

Pulp Fiction

The dialogue is the most intriguing part of this movie

4.7

The Platoon

Oliver Stone successfully showed the terrific expertise of US army as to kill civilians as well as to frame up fellow soldiers. When you see Willem DaFoe shot by own people and deserted to Vietnamese for slaughter, you start to understand what does "leave nobody behind" really mean.

4.6

Sleepless Seattle

After ten years, it's still so attractive and touching a movie!

4.5

Matrix Reloaded

Besides its excellent action design and visual effect, One must adopt a philosophy layer of view to appreciate the whole story structure. For example, the self-called "architect" is in another sense what people trust as God.
Now I am keen to see the third episode so as to learn what kind of ending the storyteller is going to give us. Will Zeon survive (of course it will) and more important, will it prevail. If it prevails, doesn't it mean the mankind has to sacrifice modern life for so-called freedom from being controlled by the Matrix?
Let's get the answer soon.

4.5

终极无间
(Infernal Affairs III)

Nowadays you need a DVD so that you could watch a movie several times before you are able to put together all the threads and understand the whole story. Generally, Infernal Affairs III bears a similar story style like The Others, in the way that the story was told from the other side. The main bug is: why didn't Chen turned to Yang to restore his identity as a policeman in Infernal Affair.

4.4

无间道 II
(Infernal Affairs II)

Compared with its predecessor this episode is much better in the sense that the whole story is tight and consistent. The performance is excellent, especially those of 黄秋生, 曾志伟 and 吴振宇.

4.3

Training Day

Denzel Washington deserved his Academy Reward with his incredible performance in this movie. The contrast between he hug his pal and shoot him soon after is astounding. And there are so many details making this movie worthwhile of being watched again. One more question: is LAPD really so infamous? Remember LA Confidential and Blue Streak?

4.2

Fanfan

A distinctive French romance. You can feel something in common between this 1993 movie and the 2001 Amelie

4.1

异度空间
（Inner Senses）

A good ghost movie without any ghost.

4.0

Four Feathers

A must-see for people from nations once invaded by Britons. The spectacular battle in Sudan desert between armed-to-teeth brutal intruders and brave hearts for freedom can satisfy any soul thirsty for revenge.

Chicago

The music drama is marvelous. I just don't understand why it was Catherine who received the Oscar. And finally both Grace and I find Rene Zellweger is too flat.

Seems he's not good at disguising a doctor.

3.9

回家过年

(Seventeen Years)

Short story illustrates genuine human nature: in a two-single-parent-family, one daughter inadvertently killed the other thus was sent to prison for life. After 17 years behind the bars she was permitted to return home for new year's eve, a traditional date for family reunion. How should she face her parents who lost respective daughters all at once and have live in darkness and hatred for 17 years?

Finally every family member gave in to compromise each other, and that's probably what family reunion actually means.

3.8

Analyze This

Excellent comedy with cunning slang.

3.8

Johnny English

Probably the best farce of the year. You can hardly watch any more amusing coronation elsewhere. But dun expect the story to be foolproof.

3.7

Matrix Revolutions

The One must speak good English, like the daughter but not the Indian father; old woman ought to die; high tech kills more efficiently; two great souls never merge; but why don't the machine destroy Zion?

3.7

无间道
(Infernal Affairs)

A quite tight story as it is, it still bears several links that you need to deduce so as to make the whole thing flows. For example, you need to assume Liu and Liang plotted to broadcast in radio that the dead goon is an agent, and the goon was shot during the fight. It's not at all told clearly.

3.6

Lust och Fägring Stor

(All Things Fair)

Outstanding description of queer relations between a handsome boy in puberty, a lonely wife starving for sex and an artistic husband in career crises. The wave came when the husband got frightened at the news of nylon popularity; the boy comforted him by caressing his head and the wife waiting in the bedroom for the boy.

3.6

Aladdin

Very nice visual effect, and help me to know it's Al-laddin

3.5

Amelie

Several points I still don't understand: how does that toy travel around the world and how could Amelie observe couples who are at orgasm. And is this Hollywood or France style?

3.5

Classic movie, Excellent actress, Clumsy story.
