剧情介绍

  A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
  What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.

    软科幻外壳下的关于生命的探讨,通过克隆人,男主像照镜子一般实现了生命中的最后一次自洽(男主演技不错,人物弧光很明显)。想疑问的是,既然剧情中的科技已经可以克隆人,那为什么不可以治愈本体的不治之症?

    越长大越多被迫面对病痛和死亡,越感受到造物之残酷。通向衰老的路径必然而不可逆,而这一切带来的只有悲伤。这必然发生且几乎百害而无一利的事,是写在我们基因里的宿命.....

    2星,一个披着科幻概念的人性片,主要就是讨论人性与科技的碰撞。比较文艺,很多不合理之处可以忽略。

    也许有人不相信未来克隆人可以替代自己,也不相信现在人可以看到启承转退和人心意向。选择替代,就要承受所有的挣扎和不舍。选择知晓,就要咽下所有真相和疼痛。都是沉默和不可说。

    这就和“家人得了癌症到底应不应该告诉他”一样陷入一个伦理困境,我觉得前者是对病人本身的不公平,而后者则是对家人的欺诈,这个故事恰好可以让我们好好思考一下这个问题。片中的高科技给我留下了深刻的印象,最大的愿望能有一辆无人驾驶的车,我就再也不用为自己学开车发愁了。

    以为会喜欢,结果看了一半起来吃了两包饼干,一包鸡汤味,一包趣多多,我果然还是爱吃甜的,时间和胃容量都有限,就不要浪费空间了。

    PS:今年漫威DC作品说实话都不咋样,但粉丝都太疯狂太能吹了吧,让我多少有点恶心了,超英真的已经有点审美疲劳,为啥还在打着迪士尼华纳两家为啥还都在打着反超英的旗号做着超英,黑袍纠察队快来救世!

    看完我还在想,所以片名“天鹅挽歌”的寓意是什么。我女朋友竟然一语中的:“因为天鹅在湖面上的倒影,就是由两个自己,组成的一个爱心呀。”

    一面拿类型作诱饵,一面又高傲地与类型割席。不见方法,只见立场,属于被艺术殿堂的鄙视链框住了。

    虚假的自杀小队,真实的正义联盟。说实在的,现在还能把超级英雄电影玩儿出新花样来真挺不容易的,而且这部电影拍得也确实好,五星没毛病!

  • 楠静 7小时前 :

    登陆就死了一大片,独臂侠简直就像是来搞笑的,毫无疑问是剩下哈利奎因继承了不知用途的标枪。整个电影每一幕切换的字幕倒是不错,不过这样的编排晓得太像漫画。整个推进还是不错的,比正义联盟好太多了,虽然加了每个人物的自述非常像是班级报道,全靠对白直接给出。最后居然还挺政治正确,这个城市的底层战胜了入侵者,美国就是大反派。太喜欢鲨鱼人那努威,好像他除了牙口好皮糙肉厚没啥特点,而且更像野生动物,不那么理解人类行为,所以它在监狱看书、在塔上的水族馆玩得不亦乐乎,虽然没啥用还是啃了派大星好几口。派大星这个反派还不错,只是一个被压迫者的反抗。如果不是人类,可能它还在仰望星空。
