    Adolescence

    ★★★★★

    Z世代「活網」所衍生的種種問題眾所皆知,
    尤其對心理層面的影響更是一大議題,
    社群媒體產生的容貌焦慮、
    灌輸錯誤性別觀念的影音內容、
    甚是emoji都能用來當成霸凌的武器,
    這些都促使年輕世代產生強烈自卑感,
    為尋求認同感而不管對錯地深信網路潮流。

    而《混沌少年時》巧妙安排各方視角
    (警方、教職人員、心理輔導師、父母)
    來探討劇中少年誤入歧途的根本原因,
    更全面且精闢地探討Z世代青少年的危急困境。

    每集從頭到尾皆是一鏡到底更是神乎其技,
    拍攝前必定是不斷排演才有如此高品質的成果。
    而無剪接的拍攝手法更是考驗演員演技,
    飾演Jamie的Owen Cooper小小年紀
    卻將青少年面對異性問題的青澀、
    焦慮感湧上時的情緒爆發詮釋地淋漓盡致。
    不過飾演Eddie的Stephen Graham更是一絕,
    將父親對教育兒女的自我懷疑、
    發洩怒氣時的失控情緒,
    外剛內柔的個性等演繹得無可挑剔。

    餘韻深沉的情感衝擊,看完最終集整個淚流滿面,
    完全可以當作現今學校教導學生網路使用的教材,
    更是拍給每位當代青少男女及其父母的感動神劇。

    兩人的親密場面都拍得太好了
    完全沒有任何尷尬感 
    反而是讓人心不停狂跳的激情體驗

    呈現手法不到獵奇 而是奇幻既超脫正規
    到時上串流再來好好反覆咀嚼

    脫離軀殼的慾望 肉體交合的爽快
    自我懷疑的鏡面 漂浮不定的一生
    逃避身分的循環 孤獨終身的死去

    我也想來點枯枝落葉湯了…

    Anatomy of a Fall

    ★★★½

    “Sometimes a couple is kind of a chaos and everybody is lost. Sometimes we fight together and sometimes we fight alone, and sometimes we fight against each other, that happens.“

    Found myself disconnected multiple times from the story, yet Sandra Hüller’s powerhouse performance and some unexpected heart-crushing dialogues brought me back to utter admiration. Cinematography is incredible also, but overall I don’t feel connected to this one as much as other nominees in Best Picture this year. Well deserved on Best Original Screenplay tho!

  • Oppenheimer

    Oppenheimer

    ★★★★★

    Christopher Nolan RETURNS with explosive storytelling & breathtaking visuals.

    Oppenheimer, starring Thomas Shelby as the father of atomic bombs & Iron Man as his nemesis, is a history lesson you wouldn’t wanna miss. The layers, the buildup, the cast are all freaking perfect. I couldn’t stop trembling & weeping through the entire third act. This is truly “one of a lifetime” experience.

    “I think we already did. Destroy the whole world.”

    It’s so funny to think that humanity holds the capability to make…
