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.
似乎是少年成长故事，全场百分之八十都是老年观众（你瓣迷影口味重哦）
意大利的电影都很抽象，你说它没有剧情吧，但它是美的；你说它想表达的东西太多吧，但你又能get到导演的核心。这个分数真不好给，三星半吧，在那不勒斯拍的片子没有不美的。
很欢乐的梦工厂新作
大坏狼的人设就很像疯狂动物城里的狐狸Nick。狗狗都抵不住一句good boy。Awkwafina和Moss的声音巨有辨识度。剧情没啥新意，中规中矩，看看小动物耍宝咯
很欢乐的梦工厂新作
很尬很幼稚 不值得去影院看 （ps 这片真的需要3D吗？如果是2D考虑多给一颗星……
“我很喜欢，下次……”
某茶：有人模仿我的外形穿搭，还要学我戴上耳机重播回忆。
车窗上映着窗外的景和光影，车里法比托穿着蓝白条纹衬衫戴着耳机，和他对那不勒斯的爱与恨一起，奔向罗马。
迪士尼已死，梦工厂还是你大爷。这版坏蛋联盟让我想到了当年的疯狂动物城，狐兔CP变成狼狐CP依旧好嗑，看前期以为是个反传统的套路故事，看中期觉得仓鼠肯定是坏蛋，没想到是更深的套路，看后期猜到蛇会反叛了再洗白，没想到一开始就是无间道，总之整部电影一直在反转的反转，让人摸不透，刚开始以为狐狸是隐藏坏蛋，结果不是。另外五个坏蛋穿睡衣的样子真的又萌又憨太搞笑了！
#金馬影展2021 無與倫比!!!!!!!!!!masterpiece!!!!!!!!!!他在這裡道盡了一切，家族婚姻戀愛性志業人生，所有的一切在Napoli發生被觀看被記錄，是導演站在河邊說的你看看這片土地上沒有你要記錄的嗎，唯有縱身一躍，以自己的生命與時光歲月摩擦才可獲得勇氣和愛。氣氛開始轉變差不多是電影中部，馬拉度納的「上帝之手」那一踢出現時，是公爵夫人說的你不會知道別人家發生了什麼，就在全國歡呼時這個家族開始剝離前半段的快樂美滿，再也沒湊齊的餐桌和夏日。我太喜歡了，看完後一切都不重要了，後面的蔡明亮也可以不必看了！
水准倒还不错，除了人类和动物数量比例有点怪以外，剧情走向都挺好的，几段打斗和盗窃场面观感也很好。 黑人科学家那好搞啊哈哈哈
反派做主角的动画片好歹还是有新意一点（相对而言），人物设定都挺帅的，剧情俗套不过全程都比较紧凑，没什么无聊的部分，狼狐cp很带感。
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！
The decent suit, with a hole to let his tail out, makes the wolf feel like an aristocracy.
后面的变好就成了没意义。
狼狐都比蝙猫更有cp感……主创有多恨人类，在这部片里人类的角色和功能与豚鼠毫无区别，对于善恶理解浅薄、二分，被表象忽悠着走。结尾有点意思，浅浅挑战一下程序正义，但在这个结尾前我真的差点离席了。及格分不到。
每次看动画片都会有这个感慨：人类真够自大 虽然影片一直告诉我们不要刻板印象，但是刻板印象还真不少
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
