The ship has been stuck in the doldrums for some time, but as soon as they break free into more promising water, the wind blows up suddenly, damaging the foremast and sending the ship right back into the still water. Mr Prettiman takes a hard fall and is laid up in his cabin, Miss Granham tends to him and the two announce their engagement.
A ship is sighted in the distance. As everyone prepares for the encounter with the enemy Edmund hits his head. He is badly hurt, but struggles on. The ships draw close, but instead of bringing an encounter with the enemy, it is The Alcyone, a British ship captained by Sir Henry Somerset, they announce that the war is over.
The two boats are tied together for a ball. Edmund meets Sir Henry's ward, Marion, and immediately falls in love. But his head injury takes its toll and he falls unconcious just as he was going to beg for her hand. After some days he finally recovers, but the two ships have parted and Marion is gone.
Edmund's servant Wheeler was on board the Alcyone. He had spent four days in the water after going overboard and had finally been spotted, rescued by the crew and eventually returned to the original ship. As they sail on, there is yet more damage as part of the keel falls from the ship. The passengers start to panic, convinced it will sink. Edmund finds Wheeler in his cabin with a gun, after his last scrape with death he is terrified of drowning, and he shoots himself.
一个有点可笑的年轻人在探索世界的同时自己也得到了成长。
德托罗本身不擅长黑色类型片，再加上现在是其创作低谷，一出白开水作品。摄影和布景的精致也显得苍白。
陀螺电影的怪趣味深宅癖美术风格在本片中一如既往的延续，这是观影所能带来的最大快感，采访说影片中很多道具都是陀螺的私人收藏品，这果然很陀螺。可惜的是，最重要的故事剧情太过常规太无新意，演员表演除了大魔王外，也无甚惊喜，鲁妮玛拉的角色过于扁平导致演员基本无发挥空间......当然，看完还是会想起一些存在于中国民间的“通灵人”，在中国很多农村里通俗的说法叫做“跳大神的”，如果有朝一日审查制度放开点，这会是一个特别好的电影题材。
这么个阵容拼凑这么个东西其实，反而冲淡了故事的表现力，150分钟的片长也没什么必要。
这一版比起47年原版简直就是金玉其外，哪怕画面再精致。片长这么长配角依然这么单薄，想想原版Zeena和Pete等配角可都是很鲜活。陀螺也不忘自己的恶趣味，同时还老生常谈各种issue,没必要真的没必要。大魔王的角色也是一出场及全程就各种霸气外露，还是喜欢原版的处理。
私心想要bradley cooper被封杀，不过他没错，是我错了。
改编加的几句台词太好了 You don’t fool people, Stan, people fool themselves. 凯特布兰切特真是个大魔王。好喜欢fantasy和陀螺的暗黑童话风。
我的心可能装不下这么“单纯”直白的故事了
看了演职员表才知道是陀螺的作品www大魔王演的真的是好，前半段确实拖的有点长了，但是单就是黑色电影来讲，150分是有的，甚至比《布鲁克林迷案》还要好
我以为最后那个老工人会用电钻击穿老板的头😢
2个半小时。。。好长。减一星。。
跟影片中的故事一样，影片本身也似乎来自上个世纪，复古的基调，精良的制作，精准的表演，精彩的反转。前半段进展缓慢，需要点耐心仔细留意，男主为自己的未来留下的铺垫，悲剧总是因其不可避免而更让人唏嘘。几位女主和男主都贡献出了一流的演技…
读心术，毒心术。不要扮演上帝。一星给打光。
玉面情魔感觉拍的半旧不新的😂可能是翻拍的原因，就感觉应该是上个世纪的电影，但是硬件什么的又确实是现在的电影有股割裂感😂but冲魔王这设定这声音值3颗星😂
（p.s. 前半和后半割裂到像两部电影）
质感一流。“怪人”的伏笔所有人都能猜到，但宿命式结局依然有震撼力。
前后两部分感觉像两部完全不同的电影。虽然看完之后理解了前半段所有的铺垫，但是还是觉得可以做到再紧凑一些，没必要超过一个小时。
美工依然是标致性的陀螺style，配乐稍满，不如the shape of water，另节奏实过于拖沓了。
#流动马戏团
请这么好的演员，拍得这么差，用互联网黑话说就是：ROI太低！
已看一半。
