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.
好烂啊，巨难看。故事讲的稀碎，毫无重点……什么都要讲，什么也都没交代清楚。当它渲染浓重吧，你以为是个重点，看下去发现就是个龙套支线（甚至都不能成为支线）。谁都要给好几秒的特写，不管重不重要……会拍电影吗？就像期末老师给你划重点，结果划了一本书。数学也不好，定制6个箱子，结果用了5个……简直流水账式的电影，比我小学作文写的都差！更别说什么高潮迭起了，整一个大失望！跟哈利波特系列比都不能比！我感受最一般的哈2都甩这个十条街！很失望！我觉得即使讲一个普普通通的故事，跟《神奇宝贝》一样，纽特去各个地方收集各种神奇动物，都能拍的比这精彩多了！成熟的作家和大片的导演为什么到现在都能拍出一个合格线都没有的电影？十分不理解！太生气了！
你可以嘲讽唾弃这样的印度这样的人这样的事，但不能吐槽他们敢拍出来这样的事。放在某地呢，别说是抄燃气表，会被抄家的。
“袜子永远不够穿，圣诞节来了又去，人们坚持要送书给我。”——虽然那未必是句实话，但老邓真的太惨了(┯_┯)
印度电影：小题材能出彩，大问题托得住，又输了！
很好的题材，剧情烂了点，搞啥煽情，3星都很难达到，喜剧效果还有点
一部大制作，因为这样或者那样的原因不卖腐，是不行的。一部中年gay子离婚实录，新王当立，斯卡曼德骨科美帝义不容辞——我觉得哥哥的戏份都是卡特纳凭本事赚的❤拉手了耶他们拉手了❤好幸福啊看到他们拉手
再多这个系列4就可能会是终结篇了
又不夠輕鬆和搞笑
“他是gay”
▫️至于邓布利多有什么秘密？？？笑死……Dumbledore is an opened Book，他家那点破事儿不是早就人尽皆知的吗！！
你要完全没看过原著和电影，会说这什么破玩意，你要是原著和系列电影都看过了，会说这什么破玩意……
最後還是強行把白人洗白了 ! 今天要是他們看到小孩真的是有缺陷的 還會回來要孩子???
实属灾难，这个系列就此收手吧！大卫耶茨他原本只是懂个屁的叙事，这次连视觉效果都屁都不懂了。前两部虽然也是叙事混乱，但至少还能留下不少值得玩味的人物线索和魔法世界独有的视觉奇观，而这部有个什么鬼东西？虽有140分钟的时长，但根本上什么东西都没有讲；作为商业电影在视听上没有任何能让观众享受的点，作为HP的衍生作品对人物和魔法世界的塑造都毫无推进。还有就是大卫耶茨的所谓“个人表达”，人人都是谜语人，台词不要明着说，给你个镜头让你自己猜；在这种人物动机十分混乱的剧本之下实属恶心到了，整个观影过程如坐针毡。最后，邓布利多的秘密是什么？这么长的时间里，所有角色没有任何成长，观众对任何角色的认知也毫无新的增长，第二部结尾时什么样这一部结尾时还是一个样；邓布利多的秘密就是复读前两部的台词，就这就这就这就这？？？
请不要因为低分就不出了！我爱看！粉丝爱看！请一直出到第十部！哪一天不能在大屏幕看到霍格沃茨我的生活都会失去盼头好吗
这电影好像讲了些什么，又好像什么都没讲……
孩子没有缺陷，有缺陷的是你的思想。多给一颗星，为印度拍出这样普通人都能理解和共情的电影，电影一定要深刻吗？
真神奇啊其他电影是简介好无聊打开好好看，这个系列都是看情节我擦一定很好看真的去电影院我？连大银幕都无法制造记忆。能不能好好拍神奇动物、格林德沃霸权、旷世虐恋？闲杂人等太多了，太松散又太小家子气了，明明是全球性的大恐怖，搞得像一个村级别的书记改选危机一样。魔法世界那么多，哈利波特的魅力……看来作者自己来也无法复刻。
罗琳你给全剧组磕一个吧，给汉尼拔老师两个。
2.8 绥靖政策下一路风光的格林特勒遭遇直播事故，克雷登史密斯突然上台居然不是为了扇耳光。就是说谁都特么不要随便对神奇宠物进行无害化处理，动物的事情处理不好会出很大的问题，尤其是舆论上的问题，网民的眼睛是雪亮的。镜子里公然展示”GV”，镜子外都是琼瑶言情剧，音乐一起都有点故意卖腐了。真以为会正经拍点政治惊悚的德式谍战类型片？在这个躺平时代不存在的，就像这假普选，所呈现的都是些空空的魔法奇观和不讲逻辑、过目就忘的全息作秀短视频罢了。
