Bipedalism, or 'two-footed walking', is the story of a painter who grew up in an orphanage and only years later learns the circumstances of his father's disappearance and death. Childhood memories bring the main character back to the past: he buys a house in the suburbs that used to belong to his family. In the basement, he finds his father's archives and scientific research documents on the hybridization of human race with related biological species. Studying the archive material, he unexpectedly finds evidence of efforts to renew the experiments on the remaining hybrid population. The painter then becomes a researcher, and consequently a victim. The basic idea of his father's research was to change, control and influence the process of human evolution - initially connected with eugenics theories of the period before World War II, and now being placed in a context of modern 'biotechnological' expectations by his former colleagues. The main character tries to recreate and realize his father's heritage, who was forced to cooperate with state terror organizations, using the results of his secret research. In a tragic manner, this information turns into the main character's reality, at first forcing him to reappraise his father's values and later driving him to madness.
两年前初看此片剧情简介时，我脑补的是《成为约翰·马尔科维奇》那个档次的电影来着，事实证明不能太高估凯奇的朋友圈水准。
翻身了，但没完全翻过来。对比近几年的那些量产烂片来说，确实要好上不少。和以前的那些优秀电影比起来，还是要差很多的。不过这个想法确实是挺不错的。应该近10年来他最好的电影了把。
哈哈哈哈哈哈哈哈其实做的事是薇诺娜在黑天鹅，鸟人，摔跤王做的那些事，调侃自己的过气并消费剥削它获得电影媒介自反，but那些都有表达有深度，这个真的除了调侃啥也不剩（竟然有点像扬名立万，那种烂片质感）但还是获得了快乐浅及格吧
我演我自己的噱头很有意思，但是电影本身一般
故事走向好莱坞套路好似凯奇20年前的《改编剧本》
已经无下限自黑到这个程度，片子依然不卖座。真是凯奇本人之外另一个维度的悲哀。
当尼古拉斯凯奇扮演自己的时候，他不再是那个刀枪不入的英雄，而是一个过期的老演员！
难得凯奇哥终于演一部不那么难看的电影了，还算有趣，梗也挺多，多给一星
一百多年来有如此多优秀的电影，这个问题的答案受限于这个季节，我现在的情绪。
片名透露了这是一个天赋异禀却高开低走的人物故事。凯奇把自己的演艺道路搬上银幕，电影也层出不穷地回cue他曾经的光辉时刻，凯奇更是借机回应关于烂片之王的吐槽。但我完全没有感受到unbearable weight具体是什么，我甚至质疑本片与中心词massive talent风马牛不相及。片里片外的凯奇沦为烂片之王不是因为massive talent的稍纵即逝，而是缺钱迫使接片不加节制、导致口碑下滑。故事的本质是常见的中年危机题材。至于青年凯奇劝勉中年凯奇时常用的那句You have a gift，与主人公凯奇的凤泊鸾漂和重振雄风可以说是驴唇不对马嘴。片中真正有gift的是对故事具备敏锐直觉的佩德罗，而在切入切戏中戏中，47岁佩德罗扮演的角色显然更富有层次感。
震惊，尼古拉斯凯奇还好意思吐槽女儿品味？！我现在相信有导演和编剧是为某演员量身定制剧本了。
Nic whooo fking cage ！
You're Nick FUKINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNG~Whoa! Cage!
大概有那么三五秒钟是真诚的，剩下的时间都湮没在莫名其妙之中。
其实这是一部帕丁顿熊2的超长预告片（doge）
No，I LOVE YOU MORE！... XDDD
因为从小看电影频道，一直觉得尼古拉斯凯奇是比较“正派的”演员。。。
电影在演员与角色、现实与虚幻间做到了恰当的融合。它必然是自恋的，却不虚伪，它的荒诞和幽默可以任性刻意，谁叫主角是奇花异卉般的Nick·Fuccccking·Cage。只是这一切被解构后，观众因错位而建立的优越感并不具备笑后的动容，其里里外外还是好莱坞俗套的那一挂。最关键的一点，身为商业片，节奏不行是大硬伤。凯奇确实一直都在，或许他不再倒退，但现在最多也只是在向左或向右的相同纬度上行走而已。所以，导演，我看《帕丁顿熊2》还不行么！
剧组的钱是不是都用来买尼古拉斯凯奇的周边了喂！
本以为凯奇叔儿终于要回归the weather man那种文艺片了，没想到还是拐到枪战去了……
