In fact, before watching it, I didn’t have too high expectations for this video. Because this director has never been considered my dear, including the Douban score of this film, it is only about 7 points, and it feels like it can't cause any storm.

In fact, before watching it, I didn’t have too high expectations for this video.

Because this director has never been my fuck, including the Douban score of this film, it is only about 7 points, and it feels like it can't cause any storm.

But many times it is like this. The more you don’t expect too much and feel a movie with a normal mind, maybe there will be more surprises.

Well, today, what I want to recommend is Jordan Peel 's latest horror film " not ".

, it cannot be called a recommendation.

should be called strong recommendation, or very, very recommended.

Although, we have all seen it, the Douban score of this film is only 7.0 points, which is not particularly high.

Just like Jordan Peel's previous movies, this movie may still be difficult to make everyone very satisfied.

However, I believe that there will be some movie fans, like me, who are very obsessed with this movie and are excited and excited about it.

This is "No".

Jordan Peel set the title of the movie as Nope, which is actually very interesting.

Using his description, this is probably the consistent view of many viewers regarding horror movies. For example, when someone tells you that you want to go to the theater to watch a horror movie, maybe many people will answer Nope, saying they refuse to watch it.

So, he simply called the title of the movie "Nope" and told the audience who thought they might hate horror movies. Maybe, you can do it too.

Or, it is based on this ambition that Jordan Peel began the creation of this "No".

And what is the impression that "No" brings to me?

is a surprise, shock, and a little touch.

is indeed a very unexpected movie viewing experience.

At the beginning, I thought this was another horror movie, and by the way, it brought the topic of race. That's right, this film is indeed very ridiculous, and there is indeed a topic of race...

However, what this movie wants to say is far more than that.

The shock and surprises brought by "No" in the movie itself are actually more.

or even, you will find that this is actually a movie about movies, so it is full of the feelings of movie fans;

At the same time, this is another movie about movie wonders, creating wonders, displaying wonders, and thinking about wonders, which also ensures the viewability of the movie;

or even, there is a trace of emotion and heroism in it, and finally, people are a little excited or moved when they see it.

and Jordan Peel's grasp of the image and the creation of the film's atmosphere have once again proved that he is a very outstanding film director.

His movie can be successful, not only by selling topics.

Such a scene is a surreal reality in reality.

It is actually quite difficult to describe the plot of "No", because this story is told very well and it is difficult to explain it clearly in just a few words. To put it simply, it is a mysterious incident that occurred in a desolate town, and a brother and sister tried to record it.

There are probably a few highlights about "No". First of all, this is a movie about movies.

This is a relatively obvious link.

Because the character in the film is the horse trainer of Hollywood , he helps various Hollywood crews train horses. Because the horses used in filming must be trained to cooperate with the shooting.

And the male protagonist's family is in this industry.

And when introducing her identity, the male protagonist's sister revealed another information, which is another movie meme.

Friends who have a little understanding of the history of movies should know the famous "Sports Horse" and also understand its significance to the movie.

The male protagonist's sister said that everyone remembers that this set of photos was taken by Mibridge, but everyone does not remember that in fact, the jockey at the moment was a black man and he did not know his name. In fact, that person is my ancestor. He is the first actor in film history and the first stunt actor in film history...

Obviously, the director wants to express his dissatisfaction with the lack of black people in film history in this way.

At the same time, the movie is tied closer to the movie itself.

After that, the film also has a lot of mentions about the movie.

For example, when they discovered a mysterious incident, their first reaction was to take pictures of him, so they invited a big photographer, hoping to capture the relevant images.

and IMAX film machine

. The movie itself was also shot with an IMAX camera, which seems to be the first horror film shot by IMAX.

According to the explanation in the film, it seems that digital devices will be disturbed and cannot record these events, so this plan can be realized with film.

The photographer also mentioned magic during the shooting, and when he was excited, he held it out. The magic here refers to magic time that photographers love very much, which is the magic time, the best shooting time of the day, so he rushed forward regardless of life and death.

Fighting for love is also a self-tribute to the filmmakers.

In fact, there are many mentions about the device in the film, such as the male protagonist's clothes also have the Panavision logo printed on it. In addition, his jacket is the crew jacket of " Scorpion King ", which can be regarded as echoing the plot itself.

And other characters also have various imaging devices in the film.

And the film's tribute and mentions to various well-known movies are even more uncountable.

For example, " Great White Shark ", " Third Class Contact ", "ET", etc.

Also, it is generally believed that the climax part of the film's design for alien ships is referenced to "eva", you can feel it.

In addition, many netizens have also noticed the reproduction of the classic scene of "Akira".

Someone online has sorted out Akira pays tribute to the universe

In addition, this film actually pays tribute to "Akira".

The alien ship sucked life into it is actually an echo of "Akira".

. To put it off topic, Jordan Peel himself is a fan of "Akira", so this is also a very obvious tribute scene. And, in the 2017 live version, he once wanted to direct it, but he refused because Jordan Peel wanted to do original content and he didn't want to repeat other people's stories.

This may also be the reason why his movies have always been very unique.

And the movie itself also incorporates elements of westerns to a large extent. Including, it also mentioned the first cowboy movie "Booker and the Missionary" with the protagonist of black people.

It is obvious that the director portrayed the male lead as the hero in the classic western film, which is also a protest against the lack of black cowboys in western films.

I have to say that the heroic sense of the male protagonist in the next few scenes was really revealed, which made people feel a little passionate and touched for a while.

At the same time, the film's highest respect for the movie is also in the last scene. It is really very considerate to pay tribute to the movie in the form of a moving image.

And this is also the most touching thing about this video.

Because, this is by no means a movie that wins audiences by relying on topicality. It is a movie about movies, and it is also presented in such a cool way.

video quietly brought the topic back to the original moment of the movie.

You will think that this director really has a big fuss.

And this film is not only the clue of the male protagonist's sibling.

actually has another clue, which also leads to another theme of this film.

That is the character of Steven Yuan , as well as the sitcom "Gordy's Home!"

, which has also appeared many times in the film. For example, the beginning of the film, Steven Yuan's memories are mentioned in the middle, which is also an indispensable part of the film.

This retro sitcom is a story about a family. The family of four is a mother and mother, son and daughter, but this family also has a human gorilla, who is also a member of the family.

Originally, it was a very routine sitcom. As a result, because of an accident, the balloon on the set unexpectedly exploded (the balloon also echoed the balloon at the end of the climax), which made the obedient orangutan suddenly go crazy and attacked other actors during the filming, which led to the bloody incident at the beginning of the film.

Of course, this is just a sitcom created by Jordan Peel for the film, which originated from a nightmare of his.

However, in order to make this sitcom more realistic, he also made a retro opening credits that he had posted on his push before.

In fact, after watching the opening of this movie, I understand the meaning of this sitcom better.

Because, you will find that the little boy and the orangutan are the habits they have always had. So, after the accident, after the orangutan recovered from his sanity, he used his bloody hands to hope to fight the little boy again.

Seeing a netizen said that before the gorilla fisted with the little boy, did not compare sign language with the boy? In fact, he asked the boy what happened at home just now?

That is to say, it knows nothing about its madness, and after a violent spell, it is normal again, so it does not hurt the boy, but starts to punch again. Why is this happening to

?

We can chat with you later.

Timeline is back to the present, and the little boy who grew up is actually Steven Yuan.

It is obvious that after that incident, he could not continue acting. Nowadays, the outdated child stars in the past still have to make money from the tragic experiences of the past, which is very pitiful.

At the same time, he was the one who discovered alien spacecraft early and made money by organizing performance shows.

He even felt that he had formed a benign interactive relationship with alien life, so that alien spacecraft could cooperate with their performance and make a living from it. In the description in the film, he thought he had tamed them.

Of course, this is actually impossible. He and his audience also soon had terrible consequences.

So, we have to go back to the previous sitcom violence incident.

are actually the same theme. Human beings are always keen on various miracles or wonders, especially in film and television works. For example, letting an alien spacecraft cooperate with you, or letting an orangutan act with humans, it seems that we have tamed it.

But it is very likely that it is just wishful thinking of us humans.

Because, neither the orangutans in sitcoms nor the alien life later, there is no such thing as taming. Many times, humans just take it for granted. Therefore, the male protagonist in the film, that is, the horse trainer OJ, will also repeatedly mention the taming of the predator.

This is also a major theme of this film.

And when you enter this topic, you will find that this video is deeper.

Although the title is very simple, the content that this "No" wants to convey is still quite rich. Even, you can't help but recall some of the plots and think about them repeatedly, and you will find more interesting details.

This is also the reason why I like this film so much.

video gave me a great emotional impact, and at the same time gave me a lot of aftertaste and thought on the topic.

And the reason why a movie is attractive is this kind of aftertaste.

So, how can you not recommend it?
