Douban 9.1, I want to sweep the 92nd Oscar with "Joker", 3 kinds of perceptions are worth exploring

Recently, Martin Scorsese's "The Irishman" blasted the Internet. The movie that had been dominated by "Joker" was replaced by this movie. Some people say that Martin Scorsese is not old, and some people say that "The Irishman" is the best gangster movie of the 21st century.

Of course, many friends told me that they didn't fall asleep watching "3 Billboards" but fell asleep watching this movie.

The title "Irish" comes from criminal cliché and refers to "contract killing". Gang fights, vendettas, conspiracy theories, plus more than three hours, at first glance, is this the traditional American gangster rhythm?

Today, I don’t talk about color, narrative, or picture, only three kinds of perception.

1: Is the "digital ageing" technology suitable?

At the beginning of the filming of "The Irishman", I heard that Martin called Robert De Niro, Al Pacino, Joe Pesci and other old partners again. It was a great surprise. However, when I really learned about the story of "The Irishman", there were many worries.

This worry is not because of the unsuccessful "Gemini Killer" of Will Smith, but because of old Martin's obsession.

To be honest, Martin and his partners are getting old, "The Irishman" itself can use younger combinations to jointly interpret classics of the times. However, he chose Robert De Niro in a salute. Robert De Niro's acting skills will permeate all aspects of Frank's role, and Al Pacino will also show us the habitual actions of "The Godfather". I was very optimistic about the "digital eradication" technology used in "The Irishman" before. After all, Brad Pitt used it well in "Rejuvenation", and it also has magical light and shadow effects. However, for people of De Niro's age, this technique is really inappropriate at this level, with a young face and staggering feet.

After watching "The Irishman", old Martin seems to have reached the age of going to church to confess like Frank in the film, and he is beyond his ability!

2: The old

status of "The Irishman" is that we always use "The Irishman" to compare various previous classics, such as "The Godfather", "New York Gangs", "Once Upon a Time in America", etc., but never "The Irishman" is treated as a new work by Martin. The reason is Martin’s stubbornness and stagnation. What’s stubborn is that he has to use old partners even if he spends a lot of money. What’s stagnant is to use new technology to maintain old stubbornness. Even if he doesn’t know it, his movie concept is indeed a bit old-school. Up.

When I watched the movie, I even wondered if I was still young or old! In this movie, the style is old, the actors are old, and the story is old. Frank and Russell still had to deal with business and disputes for a long time, and he still needed his own hands to deal with Hoffa, so that they even felt Martin's old age.

Of course, many friends will refute me. Martin's age can freeze the movie in that era.

But what I want to say is, do we need to remember that era? We already have "The Godfather", "The Good Guy", "Once Upon a Time in America," and "New York Gangs." At this time, "The Irishman" seems to be less important.

is like Frank, played by De Niro, who constantly complains to the nurse, but the nurse can't listen.

3: The elegy of the times

The author still remembers that when "The Godfather" was seen in three parts, it was given a 5 star time on Douban late at night.

​​However, after watching "The Irishman" for more than 3 hours, the author did not feel an upsurge, but thought that this year was a good year. The position of "Joker" is not so solid this year, "The Irishman" is worthy of the awards season.

If you really want to give "The Irishman" a comment, it is that Martin Scorsese sang the elegy of that era again. It's not that he's watching "Marvel Movies" not pleasing to the eye, it's that he misses the past and the era of "slow traffic"!

The existence of the movie "The Irishman" seems to have nothing to do with 2019. It is like a bead in a classic gangster movie. It's not that he is not good enough, but you haven't watched it yet.

Even so, this gangster movie that cost nearly 175 million US dollars, I will still give 9 points!

Of course, the average Douban score is currently 9.1. The reason why I left this 0.1 is mainly for repaymentWaiting for Martin and "Little Plum"'s next work "Roosevelt", the old man is still shooting!
