James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
公义要靠非法手段实现,每个人都为实现公义付出代价,这是法制的悲哀,公义与法制间矛盾这种早已拍滥的题材,依然一直有人拍,而这种对法制的不信任,试问又是因何而成?
曾江就是老狐狸。
太过理想的反博一击,顺利制服富家子,匡扶正义。
结构不够紧张也不够悬疑。莫名其妙就死一个律师重伤一个律师。律师的正义感确实让人尊重,但又感觉太刻意。总之没有惊喜,一切预料之中。
挺遗憾的,这个卡司居然不配一个好剧本,节奏实在太烂了,一些人设和剧情转变得太突然,看得有点疑惑,突然就这样那样了。新生代的女演员是真的各方面都不太行,还没出场只有几分钟没台词的廖碧儿强。多一星给廖启智。
想要的元素太多,但都不出彩儿。就是一个平平无奇的流水账。
廖启智的遗作,可惜了最终仍以钱权揭示真相的荒诞。看前一半的时候,有一种古早港片的味道,直到最后方中信聆讯时强行拔高立意的发言简直太当今太2021了。
演员很努力地在表演了 但剧作实在太普通了
剧情幼稚得不行...骗傻子呢...浪费时间太尴尬了
廖和曾,游艇飙戏加一个⭐️,TVB演技的天花板。

如果强权最后只会输给反水的强钱,并不知道站在鸡蛋这边会有什么希望。
可以做到只手遮天
强迫症让我看完的。最好看的居然是游艇上两个老戏骨的对手戏。
太爱智叔了,除了半颗星给曾江,其他的都给智叔
正义的学费很贵嘛,代价是一张空头支票,随便填。推翻了爱民党,下一个是爱什么党呢?
智叔太可惜了。电影3.5分,妥妥的网剧质感,。

可总是有些时候回头一看或者某个身边的初生牛犊刺激让你又深深思考。
