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.
温导回归恐怖片后的水准还是顶级，各种经典元素海量奉上，镜头语言太强，谜底揭晓后开始喜剧时间，警局屠杀又血腥又恶趣味，扔椅子那简直笑不活了
给朋友喜欢的小松菜奈以及已经过世的作者本人多一颗星。但是整体真的不管从叙述上还是镜头语言上表现力都不是特别好。
如果你的生命只剩下10年，你会想要怎么度过？
明明说好了要记录美好的时刻，删视频是什么个意思啊，痛！好痛！
想起了好多【人就松了】的时刻啊，冬天，再看一遍。多的一星给摄影老师，让人看着就想哭的摄影。
当同样的强烈的风吹来
好吧 nana很美就对了 本身不太喜欢悲情基调下的所有快乐....
——故事很简单、但我还是有被感动到。小松菜奈的“厌世脸”真是太适合这种对生活丧失斗志、但一笑起来又明媚十足的角色、很喜欢影片里对二人拍摄樱花桥段的巧思设计、另外、看了有一些日本电影、目前为止所听过的电影配乐都做的蛮舒服的、片尾曲是熟悉的野田洋次郎的创作、很好听。
当下电影环境，看到这种成色电影不得不拍手叫好，不愧是恐怖大师啊，即便拿来或者致敬的段落，都能跟自己的风格融合的密不透风，鬼片式的招牌神秘莫测+怪奇畸形的视觉冲击，整个丧心病狂的cult杂锦，强烈的镜头游移和回旋式的动作戏跟随，超级浓郁的沉浸感溢出电视屏幕，“招魂”里的“阴风阵阵”，医学研究室“摇篮里的恶魔”，虚实交错的今敏式文风，“血溅警署”的酣畅飒爽，真相逐渐明朗，局势却开始失控，简直是恐怖迷的狂欢盛宴，虽然故事细节经不起推敲，能力和动机还有待商榷，但节奏掌控的如此的好，视听调度堪称极佳，温子仁恐怖大师的称号又坐稳一回，气氛与反转，思维意识的变现，无一不在佐证，他是最懂恐怖片的。★★★★
nana神颜+满分摄影+RADWIMPS配乐（这本子改编成电影怎么就变这样了
去你X的删减版，这是部数一数二的砍杀电影！温子仁对镜头和氛围的把控依旧登峰造极，片头配乐气势十足并一酷到底，观感爽快一气呵成，绝对是最近必看的恐怖电影。剧情上，不得不说，这部电影其实算得上是对斯蒂芬金The dark half的重新解构，从核心点子到凶杀元素都极其相似，只是在是真是假上温子仁选择走了另一条路，也非常不错。但如果看过The dark half的话，该片的剧情就略感乏味了，最终结局的反转虽更合理，但也谈不上让人意料之外。另外温子仁这部电影有着大量其他恐怖片的影子，恐怖片影迷非常享受。
有点单薄，但也贡献了比较精彩的氛围和反转、炫酷的反身打戏和血浆场面。配乐爱了！结尾比较无力，正义战胜邪恶的轻易程度堪比海王拿起三叉戟🔱目前7.0这个分数包含了观众对老温的严格要求，毕竟起点太高。如果类似设定的国产片《双生》能拍成这个水平，被捧到8也说不好（囧）
坂口和小松菜奈不愧都是模特出身，随便拍拍都很有氛围感，最喜欢坂口健太郎和小松菜奈的那两段哭戏还有结尾风吹樱花落时的镜头。还有配乐好好听哦，但对这种慢悠悠的死人纯爱故事真的不来电…
怎么还是有女生的通病，不是身体差，是神经兮兮的
如果导演不是温子仁，我可能会给四颗星，哈哈。在16年《招魂2》后时隔5年，终于不再是监制，以导演身份回归。期待过高，略有失望，豆瓣刚刚开分7.1。但一定要看未删减原版，爱奇艺同步上映的缺失不少关键镜头！
一切都很普通。靠情境的力量传递情绪，于是大家都哭了。
看完观后感：两个自私鬼自我感动的爱恨情仇……
看公式书以为和花束恋爱差不多呢，期待值蛮高的…看完之后比较失望，画面很美，nana演技进步也很大，原本之前她的哭戏是不会共情的。but!!!!故事情节太平淡了吧，坂口完全接不住戏
然而不知道是不是因为没了鬼，血浆滥用跟不要钱一样，也不像电锯系列把花样百出的死法和剧情结合在一起，单纯的暴力杀人加那把即视感极强的短剑，不知道还以为在看V字仇杀队。
在梦里我和你站在花火大会的人海里
