Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
很欢乐的梦工厂新作
挺热闹的电影，喜欢狐狸市长的设定，帅呆了~
一场未看的电影，一次令人激动的转会，一家奇奇怪怪的亲戚，一个烙印在生命中悲伤的夏天与回不去的家。索伦蒂诺对马拉多纳的怀念，对过去生活的留念，浓缩在这个一夜成长的故事中。因为太私密了，有些情节设计的就是回忆中的灵光一现，观感太奇怪，很难让观众融入故事，那不勒斯确实拍得很美，尤其带大海的景色，音乐也不错
谈不上有多优秀 剧情还是老一套 只是因为疫情我太久没进影院了 看到这么一部轻松愉快的电影不容易 笑料还蛮足的 全场笑疯了 所有动物都好可爱 🐺先生痞帅的样子让人梦回隔壁的狐狸Nick 中间那段日本忍者风的切换太飒了姐姐杀我！
喜欢开场的那段，从文本到分镜，快准狠且有趣地做出了人设，后面实在是太套路了，主题也很无聊，团伙角色沦为模糊背景。
真是太好笑了 片尾手铐铐在snake脖子上是认真的吗 所以不要以貌取人 有些表面看着善良的人心底里并不一定善良 反之
意外很好看，虽然套路了一点，但是故事很完整，而且（你们这个世界究竟是什么设定怎么有人有有智慧的动物也有没智慧的动物？）剧里很多捏他镜头，类似碟中谍，瞒天过海美人计，杀死比尔这些还是挺有意思的
是属于索伦蒂诺的「阿玛柯德」「天堂电影院」和「痛苦与荣耀」 印象最深的时刻是男孩走在喧闹操场时突然忍不住痛哭失声 最始料未及的崩溃有时不是发生在四下无人的夜深 而是眼睁睁看着周遭一切如常的热闹喧嚣 发现自己却再也无法拼凑回轰然倒塌的一角
酷。
这对大学生来说可能有点幼稚，但对小学生来说刚刚好。用动物当主角是因为鸡贼，用人类当背景是因为省钱，用《功夫熊猫》的皮生套《神偷奶爸》的设定，无论从制作还是创意层面都是全方位的捉襟见肘。在善恶之间摇摆不定的人物设定已不鲜见，但是仅以做好事会让动物想摇尾巴作为人物转变的动机是否过于儿戏。虽然有几场戏说明几个主角是如何的不受社会待见，但是明显力度不够，不足以说明角色对于获得社会认可的渴望，使得人物后期的转变显得十分生硬。
四平八稳中蛮好笑的，以及狼蛇这还不是爱情？代到了沉舟。
故事还是俗套的套路，人物塑造得生动形象，很有魅力。★★★☆
看出了很多和费兰特的互文。是那不勒斯的方言与脏话，城区尽头的海，以及被污名化的疯女人。
还有她那个戒指 弄来弄去的 原来都是有伏笔。
很多设计简直把观众当白痴但是居然毫不违和且十分动人哈哈哈哈，主要人物不可多得地塑造得立体而有趣，反派的配音也太令人怀念了这不是IT狂人里的Moss嘛，最后还有音乐挺不错，没想到它的国内票房已经超过神奇动物3了【k11百方汇】
电影院什么时候才能多上点新片啊，好久没到电影院看电影了……好郁闷
跟走私的浪荡儿在海上荡舟，走私者闭上眼滑稽又纯真地模仿着“海船时速200公里的声音”，是我最喜欢的段落。
在義大利遇到的那個記者對我說，你一定要看「絕美之城」，一定要去一趟Napoli。而在波蘭遇到的那位女生對我說，你一定要看Sorrentino的電影，一定要看「Loro」。他們的眼睛我都記得，都是指引。Sorrentino從此成為我心中的上帝之手。12.12 第二遍 @Milano
不愧动物版速度与激情，虽然开始就已经猜中结局，但简单又吸引人的场景+较高的完成度仍然使观影体验顺畅愉快。子供向看起来就是可以没心没肺的快乐。
英文配音选角很不错！故事也是小而美，帮助孩子分辨善恶的同时告诉他们，善与恶不是一成不变的，他们的界限偶尔也会模糊不清，是要靠自己真心去感受，以及下意识的本能去做的。Never judge a book by its cover这么古老的话讲的就是这个道理。
