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.
很老派，还挺稳。小华盛顿这憨憨的长相意外适合演那些“我是谁，我在哪，我要干什么”的懵逼脸。厄运全分配给坎妹了，小华盛顿血量拉满，金钟罩护体，任你往我身上挖洞，老子依然可以使用泰山压顶，上演土版007。
中间还行。片头和女友部分太长了。小黑开始两三次击败对方也不捡装备？可怜的当地老头。小黑一次次逃脱，主要原因还是对方也没大费周章。前半部分被追一直逃命还有点刺激的
希腊版《红色角落》，新世纪的外乡人凝视换个国家继续吃香。选用大曝光方式的胶片摄影机拍摄企图靠近无谓的文艺片，并不能改变片子的本质。但拍摄和叙事都确实令人舒服。
他怎么老演这种面无表情苦大仇深的角色啊，又可怜又笨拙，随时要死或者要摔一跤似的
13-094美国《厄运假期》
前面一半还行，虽然剧情老套也还能将就看，后面就扯淡了，这么多训练有素的特工打不过一个零基础的主角，子弹打穿了肚子屁事没有而且还能从五楼跳下来正好落在快速行进的车上而且自己还能没事还能收拾一个特工，这特么简直拍成了科幻片！
错误的人出现在错误的地方。选的主角倒是挺政治正确的。
Ferdinando Cito Filomarino。坂本龍一配樂。約翰大衛華盛頓帶著比《天能》主角更好的身手，來演一個搞不清楚狀況的美籍中產旅客大叔，神擋就不小心殺神，佛擋就不小心殺佛，一人幹翻整場複合性陰謀，類《北西北》式的『一不小心拯救世界』，帶著這種惡趣味看會覺得這部電影很有娛樂性：到底為啥這個美國死老百姓這麼強運又能打，可能要理解他的爆發有一種贖罪動機，恐怖分子很不巧地惹到一個愛人過世，需要找點東西轉移注意力／完成未竟之業的路人，這樣講的話可能也可以像希區考克電影一樣用精神分析去解。語言隔絕身處險境。有點不靈光的鏡頭語言。風景漂亮，攝影的色彩表現不錯。Vicky Krieps 很正（在這部電影裡）。
这片告诉我们不要疲劳驾驶，你看就滑出去了。。还有一定要系安全带，你看女的直接被甩出去，当场身亡。 莫名其妙的一场追逐谋杀戏，光论这场不知名的追逐戏还是挺好看的，但就是到最后都不知道为什么，，隐隐约约，模棱两可，追了个寂寞。男主好强，咋弄都不会死，断断续续一路上身中了好几枪都能徒手暴打别人。。。因为车祸误入一场政治密谋，被追杀，求救大使馆，结果大使馆反水也是一伙的，最后各种通关，解救小男孩成为英雄。。 希腊雅典虽然穷，但是城市和乡村景色都很美。就是被这片拍的不敢去国外了。。在陌生异国遇上政治事件太恐怖。。
完全表现出他跟他爸的演技差距有多大，这家伙活生生把一个角色演的躁郁又讨人厌，他连受伤的手臂都演不出稳定的疼痛感，看他那包的那只手横冲直撞，完全没有疼痛感，连这细节都演不好，实在是丢人现眼、浪费资源
别说了，先出Beckett又出Kate，下一部该是Castle了！
没什么，就是不好看。死命逃亡，最后还勇斗恶人。
因为五官长得很像
一个人，对抗一个组织，好像也没那么难，豁得出命去的话
其实觉得拍的很真实，差点以为是真实事件改编
2男主就不能找件衣服掩盖下吗？
配乐棒，然后发现是坂本龙一做的。服了哈哈哈哈哈哈哈。
PS 坎妹打了个大酱油....
这片儿行，能看(Samsung)
你能想象为了坎妹而来的我看完前五分钟后的表情吗？
