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.
比上部战争戏多了不少，但中间还是有些地方令人迷惑。
确实太苦了真的太苦了 四星给抗美援朝的英雄们 但影片本身没有令我着迷的地方。
额，这一部感觉有点删节重要桥段的感觉啊。。剧情有几个点不太连贯，不知道是怎么回事。反套路的拍摄手法还是可圈可点的，当观众以为最后志愿军一定能炸掉桥的时候，桥却还是被修好了。但从这个点里面却可以看出当年敌我双方实力有多么悬殊，但志愿军战士还是那么去了，还是那样打了，这或许是电影给我的最大启示吧！为伟大的志愿军战士默哀！
对徐克战争片的印象是《智取威虎山》，那时刚大学毕业半年，在北京的几个同学相约去电影院看的3D版，很精彩，看得热血沸腾，直到结尾都没认出梁家辉。但这部丝毫看不出徐克风格，剧情和主题都始终在过时了的主旋律上徘徊，和上世纪50年代的影片相比大概只是技术上进步了，但当我看到编剧是兰晓龙时还是震惊的。如果非要选一个演技最出色的，或许可以是四字弟弟，因为除了他和吴京，其他角色都没有太多发挥空间，而吴京始终停留在武打明星的阶段。
牺牲那么多英雄战士，最后桥还是被联军运输机吊来的两块钢板修好了，气愤！
此生无悔入华夏 致敬所有的无名英雄 没办法想象真实的战场的惨烈程度 倒是吴京牺牲的镜头为什么是360全方位无死角还是慢镜头的 ……哈哈
我深深感受到现在的和平和祖国的强大，都是前辈先烈们奋斗下来的成果，呼吸着每口空气都如此珍贵！生在华夏，我很自豪！好好珍惜，努力完成我们这一代应该有的担当。
拍的太简单了，人物塑造不足，尤其是敌人的塑造太脸谱化
突突突，突突突。战场上哪有那么多时间感慨和抒情。。。
比第一部短一些，比第一部看的难过了些，比第一部更惨了些，第七穿插连应到157人，实到1人，我哭死了
前面一小截战术布置很清楚，接下来却出现了多个不能原谅的错误。
徐克，拍得多少有点玄幻了…到英雄连旗帜的地方结束可能更好一些。
1.很一般的动作片，算不上战争片，不如上部长津湖。
没看下去，可能是我的问题，和导演、演员无关。
感动震撼，不可磨灭的意志。被七连伍万里最后报数：“第七连穿插应到一百五十七人，实到一人”这句话整得涕泪横流
音乐转场太生硬了，故事线也不是很流畅，有些地方略有拖沓，血腥。向志愿军致敬。感谢自己生活中和平中国。
一个命令！炸桥！！志愿军们毫不犹豫视死如归死死坚持完成任务，这绝对是装备优渥充足的美国人难以想象的，竟能以装备捉襟见肘的紧迫却能打败他们的，是那背后钢铁般的意志和爱国的精神。
他们真的好英勇
对比长津湖，好了太多。把一场战斗说清楚，总归比说一个战役要好的多。
此战用1.0版本对抗3.0版本的殊死血战，打出一个二战以来相对和平的地缘政治，持续了五代的国际地位与发展空间。
