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.
“你还一直信任着我么”，“我唯一的朋友”
😭我永远爱五条！
无数个地方感觉在看火影，但能做到这样很不错了
远超预期, 给Mappa和芥见下々点赞。中间有一段怀玉篇的神插入非常喜欢。片尾要是再加个本传三人组的彩蛋就好啦, 譬如gojo带megumi见乙骨的四格? #失礼了我们可是纯爱##被秀了一脸的夏油"那我就是大义"# 22.05.18. 港村V Walk GH, 第二阶段放宽前一夜
没想到那么多悟的经典台词都是出自零卷的…诶，杰和悟的挚友情太真了吧🤧
虽然看过漫画，但还是被惊艳了一下。演出上几乎挑不出毛病，寥寥几笔，就勾勒出一个充满魅力的四人组（还有夏油），相比之下本篇的三人组都要黯然失色。片尾有彩蛋，大概是说纯爱战神回归主线？
期待很高所以有点失望 以为动作戏会更多且具体一些 结果rika打geto直接略过了…？本来想给三星 但看到了男朋友的双眼+可爱的狗卷🥲儿子飞起来接药的那一幕也太帅了吧😭
#澳门英皇戏院#『没有比爱更扭曲的诅咒了』纯爱无敌啊！！！终于知道了乙骨忧太、百鬼夜行的故事了！有点感动！
為啥其他電影院都給小冊子我家電影院就給了我一張卡片???
是我最好的朋友捡到的，我唯一的朋友。（太虐了太虐了，5夏党眼睛哭瞎（纯爱战士优太正式上线了
呜呜呜，我是纯爱战神，乙骨忧太yyds！！！！太帅了，超级超级好看！
咒术回战的问题是过于混乱，揉杂了太多的东西进去，让人搞不清楚该作的重点。这理应是超越鬼灭的一部番，可是总容易让人看的摸不着头脑，什么时候该燃，什么时候该思考，除了五条以外谁强谁弱，完全看不明白。
三星➕半颗星//从没看过原著和动画的角度来讲背景设定交代得很清楚 无门槛 完成度很高 // 五条悟大帅哥
為啥其他電影院都給小冊子我家電影院就給了我一張卡片???
主角台词好几句和真嗣君一毛一样，性格人设都像，而声音更是完全一样，我想不到緒方以外任何人能发出这个声音，结尾字幕出来果然写着緒方惠美！EVA浓度太高了。
果然还是滤镜太重……猪野宝贝一口一个七海桑快给我听心梗了……
乙骨忧太最终身份是之前看漫画没注意到的，还挺惊喜，也很忧伤——天赋还是靠遗传啊。
就是纯把漫画影视化，本来还希望可以多一些细节和原创内容的，不过还算精良，相比乙骨的纯爱，悟和夏油的羁绊则更能触动我，真希真的太帅啦，可惜漫画后期毁容了，希望介见不要让她下线呀！
纯爱战神，要上天的节奏，咔咔咔咔咔咔咔咔!
最后里香大招之前的那句叫喊，尬得我一身鸡皮疙瘩🥶
