In recent years, Tom Cruise’s career is not only limited to the actors themselves, but has also entered the ranks of producers, whether it is "Mission Impossible" or "Vanilla Sky", in the producer column. Can find his name.

This is not only the inevitable result of investment films, but also the best embodiment of the status and power of Transcendent A-level superstars.

Although this kind of producer is more famous, but Tom Cruise can be mixed to the current position, naturally knows that in a certain position, he must have the corresponding ability, so in addition to the career of an actor, for film production There is also some research on filming, shooting and production, and even directors.

In addition, he has been famous in the circle for 20 years, and the movie he starred in has almost never missed his hand, and he still has the most basic judgment of a movie.

The film uses black and white, no, there are actually red, yellow, and green that are rendered to the extreme. Whether it's the blood-red sky, golden monsters, or the beautiful eyes of emerald green, in the world of pure colors of black, gray and white, they all look even more powerful.

In addition to being able to fully fit the two-color world of the original comics, the director has several advantages in doing so-without losing the visual impact, moderately reducing the negative effects of violence and blood for the audience, and even making some **** scenes appear Quite humorous.

Despite this, the **** index of the film is still heinous, blood is splattered, limbs and heads are flying randomly... The director seems to have no regard for the legitimate and popular aesthetics of violence, deliberately raising the boundaries and using purer visual and psychological illusions to render evil City of violence.

The monologue is another feature of the film. The three protagonists have more or less monologues—low and cold voices, which show the audience's character and characters, while matching the dark, cold and instant fanatical background of the film.

Among them, Marvel has the most monologues, which is consistent with his lonely character in the Fallen City; Dwight's monologues are the least, which happens to be his cold sign...

Suddenly, Tom Cruise realized that the film was not without its problems.

After the large-scale release, some people will inevitably criticize the film's low moral content. Apart from meaningless images and lack of connotation of the storyline, the film does not seem to say anything, advocating violence? You must know that even Spider-Man also tells the United States meaningfully: the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, the world needs heroes, and heroes also need belief.

There are almost no heroes in "Sin City".

Ma Fu lives and dies for a prostitute, Hardy shoots through his head for the girl he loves-the film uses the most basic character feelings, even **** to maintain subjectivity on the basis of almost completely detached from the real world. Supreme justice, which is undesirable in the moral outlook of the real world.

It is precisely because of these criticisms that Tom Cruise thought of this aspect. Isn't his past work like this? Some moral people always stand on the commanding heights of morality and criticize them as violent garbage that can only be handsome and show off.

So the question is not what you have learned after reading it and what inspired you on a moral level, but what you "enjoyed"!

Thinking of this, a hint of sarcasm hung over Tom Cruise's mouth, going to those moral people who always stood on the commanding heights of his X!

This film is enough for him to enjoy. It is shown on the screen with super cool modeling, exaggerated expressions and action images similar to high-speed slow motion. A cult film like this is not hysterical like punk music. The roar of violence is not like the mocking of reality in the imaginary world in absurd literature.

"Sin City" can be described as perfect at this point-try to be faithful to the original comic style, frame the picture on the screen, and then use more delicately designed action shots and **** scenes to bring visual impact, supplemented by excellent special effects and backgrounds Music, intensified the performance of violence to satisfy the natural madness of humanity.

How can an audience like this kind of similar not be ecstatic?

"The movie runs through the narrations of three men. When they murdered, their hands were covered with blood, or in their calm, confused, or painful voices, they never forgot the woman who made them live like individuals."

Sitting next to Ivy Niwo, Ziyi Zhang Jiujiu couldn't get rid of the impact of the movie. She still can't believe that the film she participated in turned out to be such an effect in the end!

Her expectation for "Sin City" is almost similar to her expectation for the first rain on the North American box office chart, which has dried up this spring. Although I know that the director Murphy Stanton is the same as Quentin Tarantino who made "Kill Bill" at the beginning of the year, and he is obsessed with producing cult movies; he appeared in theaters and TV commercial trailers early, with the alternative black and white images The wildness of the characters and the characters were magnified to the extreme, which also made her understand that this is another movie with style first.

However, it turns out that Murphy Stanton’s film is more stylized than imagined. The boldly styled images certainly bring a huge impact when watching the movie, and what makes her fearful is that this is coming on schedule. The rain is black with a strong smell. When she was trembling with the chill conveyed by the unobstructed violence in the film, the significance of "Sin City" is not only in the creative image experience, but also in the disillusionment of false moral standards under a kind of crazy violence.

In the city of sin, the sky is eternally dark, and the blizzard cannot cover the sewage-filled streets.

Cruel? The movie didn't even want to give her even one chance to take a deep breath.

Even with comics as a reference, for her, this effect is still unimaginable!

"So the movie can still be shot like this!"

Zi Yi-Zhang made no secret of the surprise and surprise in his eyes. It seemed that he had participated in a very remarkable work, cooperating with a director with a very unique style for a film that might be included in the annals of North American film history.

What has fascinated her from the beginning to the end is the environmental design and lens performance of the film's style to death, which can be said to be the best restoration of the art of comics in movies so far.

The contrast brought by the strong black and white two colors, coupled with the scheduling of the lens and the angle of the light, many lenses can be seen separately as an independent picture or even an artistic work such as oil painting, especially the use of black in the film is rich in layers. It even achieves an image quality that cannot be achieved with color movies.

And compared to comics, Murphy Stanton has given more films. The advantages of film as an art form in action scenes and the free use of colors are completely superior to the original comics, which directly leads to sharp visual effects.

Most of the time, the film is in black and white, but the blood splashing out is so intense that the blood covering the face of the characters is particularly shocking.

At the same time, all the associations related to love and beauty made red the darling of the director, so the film appeared in the film with a woman's white skin and a red glittering evening dress, sparkling like the beautiful stars in the sky; and a red velvet heart-shaped bed with gold For young women with hair, this seems to represent a desire for purity and love.

Murphy Stanton gave the film similar inspirations endlessly. Nancy's green eyes became darker after smoking, and the rotten breath emanating from the yellow villain continued to bring her sharp visual impact.

The characters and stories in this movie survive in an unscrupulous and indistinguishable way, and the unscrupulous violent catharsis complements the unreality of the scene, and the singularity in the form further brings out the blackness of the content. Element, many times, she can feel the extreme chill similar to the extreme violence in "Pulp Fiction".

The movie has been stuck in an unstoppable state from beginning to end, just like Uma Thurman’s unstoppable journey of revenge in "Kill Bill". Sent to the abrupt ending with the characters.

At that moment, the snowflakes fell quietly, and all the bullets and blood, lives and killings before that were actually helpless mourning.

Is it unbearable? People in the movie don't think so, because that is the truest face of the city.

"The old man died, and the young girl survived", a sentence flashed in Zi Yi-Zhang's mind, "survived tough and difficult."

Not far from Ziyi Zhang, there are Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta Jones.

When the film's subtitles fell, the couple stood up and clapped their palms vigorously, just like the people around them. Even if they didn't like this type of movie very much, the two knew it was bound to be a masterpiece!

"This movie," Michael Douglas applauded and whispered to his wife, "it is not a work that can be done by any moderate director."

"When I was in Cannes, I met Murphy Stanton and talked with him once," Catherine Zeta Jones continued to applaud, but her head was in Michael Douglas's ear. "He was joking and said to Using "Planet of Horror" to vent the ruthless irony of the loss and disillusionment of the beautiful value of society, I think he and Quentin Tarantino are both very crazy film directors."

"Obviously, this movie will never be exchanged for fans and the audience's moderate reaction," Michael Douglas continued. "Either they see the movie like it rushingly, or resolutely cast aside it as rubbish. , It is impossible to have a gentle attitude."

Catherine Zeta-Jones nodded, agreeing with her husband's opinion.

After the film screening was over, there was continuous applause in the Hollywood Chinese Theater, which was full of 2,200 spectators. Gal Gadot also stood up with the others, watching Murphy's constant applause, even if his palm hurts, he didn’t want to stop. .

Her mentality is completely different from that of the screening. She was just a bystander at that time, but now she feels proud, proud of the person she loves!

This pride became more and more as celebrities came to embrace Murphy after another.

Tom Cruise, Quentin Tarantino, Michael Douglas, Catherine Zeta Jones, and a lot of people she looked familiar but couldn't call her name.

With sincere smiles on their faces and constant praise of the film that has just been played, Gal Gadot believes that what they say is at least half true.
