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.
谁安利说比巴霍巴利好看的'印度也开始这种双男主设置了吗
抗英神片，画面搞得确实不错。娱乐片嘛，看个开心就好。背后的殖民血腥史令人寒蝉。
浮夸，国际上很多个人英雄主义动作片至少还能贴地，该片的主角更像是天神下凡，脱离了人的范围。宝莱坞现在的一线资源全都在胡子男手中，阳刚得就差直接让张飞李逵程咬金拉来片场了。动作设计太过浮夸，让人放佛置身印度阅兵摩托车环节，“速度与激情”剧组看完都直拍大腿直呼没想到。有些印度动作片的夸张超现实我能接受，因为那些设定本就架空，这样把活人写成神实在没啥意思。
俗烂的凯奇 VS 逗逼的凯奇 VS 进击的凯奇。不想做救世主的落魄影帝不是合格的间谍，不想做艺术家的极道大佬不是合格的厨子，木有基情迸发的桥段不是好故事。明面上是一本正经的自我调侃+情怀粉电影，骨子里用的还是喜剧版《飓风营救》的老梗。海报设计与同期上映的《瞬息全宇宙》鸡血拼刺刀。对于凯奇大爷而言，只有烂片没有烂演技，真的。最后，凯奇大爷究竟曾经欠了多少钱......
PS：建议国产电影和好莱坞大片好好学学印度，看看人家是如何不带一丝虚伪做作的意识下拍好电影的！
印度电影有没有尝试过不添加歌舞片段
前半段挺好的，就是有点墨迹，后面开挂就开始放飞自我了 哈哈哈哈哈
7.5
这片居然豆瓣评分7分还多，那手撕鬼子的抗日神剧可以给9分了，换成印度人，时间搞成了3小时，就给这么高评分，真的毫无节操。
全是套路，没有真心啊这，虽然爽片也不需要什么剧情就是了。。。另外中印的民族主义电影居然是同一时期爆发，也是离谱。
时间太长了，三个多小时。两个小时左右讲完就可以了。双男主身材真好，好莱坞的动作设计虽然夸张，但是观赏性并不差。7.1
虽然三个小时但是节奏竟然很可以，虽然无视一切物理规则但是看完很是感动，只想大喊一声：拉朱毕姆结尾的歌舞为何竟不是在你俩婚礼上！
原來是凱奇年下水仙大片（誤）凱奇和Pedro的化學反應好奇妙哈哈哈哈！爲什麽cue星戰的台詞不安排給銀河系奶爸！最後的戲中戲也好好玩，把看似很沒道理扔刀動作戲變成Drama的一部分就突然合理了。好萊塢的下限在哪裏還有待觀察，但帕丁頓熊世界第一是不容質疑的真理。
应该改名叫《步枪的诱惑》，出场挺气派的，一跳上印度舞就变喜剧风了，这大概就是印度电影的魅力吧，行刑的场面让我想起了《勇敢的心》，感染力很强，但大多时候更像是国产抗日片，Bug太多就不多说了，什么手挡子弹，瞬间治愈都不是大毛病，总督被杀公主投怀送抱也是小问题，本地人低人一等，外来人却高高在上，印度缺少的不是枪，而是种姓阶级的团结。
能坚持看完阿三这部电影，完全就是想知道到底能二到什么程度，结果结束后发现还蛮精彩，不费脑别思考，爽就完了。
而且这片很多桥段很“琼瑶”很超级英雄
一个土豪脑残长情粉终获过期明星芳心的故事【大雾。在好蠢好基好好笑和凯奇好惨之间反复横跳！愉快的观影体验，结束后大家一起鼓掌哈哈哈
印度版抗日神剧，不对，抗英神剧，不过特效不错，画面很美，歌舞也好看
7.5
看预告以为是相爱相杀搅基片，看前半以为是土豪金主一掷千金只为和心爱的过气名演员一起过生日要是有机会甚至想一起拍片走上人生巅峰的搅基爽文哪知其实是人人都爱帕丁顿熊...
