Set in an underground dungeon inhabited by bundled, ragged human beings, after the nuclear holocaust. The story follows the wanderings of a hero through the situations of survival. People wait for the Ark to arrive and rescue them while their habitat falls apart.
Delving deep into the dusty and long abandonded vaults of b-cinema in search of lost gems always leaves me with a bittersweet taste. On one hand the discovery of unexpected gems where no one would think them possible is a rewarding experience. On the other hand though it makes one wonder how many of these remarkable low-budget oddities, personal love affairs of directors never quite famous and now all but forgotten, have almost forever slipped from memory?
n any case what we have here is a little post-apocalyptic gem from Poland that is really better than it has any right to. The dystopian near future of O-BI, O-BA finds a group of survivors of the nuclear war that ravaged the Earth inhabiting an underworld concrete bunker and biding their time as they wait for the mysterious Ark, an air ship of some kind that will come and save them. The Ark proves to be an elaborate hoax, carefully designed to give hope to the malnourished and desperate denizens of the bunker, while in the meantime the dome that separates their miserable existence from the nuclear winter outside is slowly caving in.
What first striked me about the movie is the design of the bunker and the depiction of the survivors. The survivors are gaunt, filthy and terrible-looking penitents, dressed in rags and aimlessly wandering the neon-lit halls of the bunker like automatons. The bunker is a rundown, seedy place, with bright neon lights peering from all sides like the eyes of malignant beasts.
On one hand it is a slightly 80's depiction of the dystopian future but the movie never stoops down to MAD MAX cheese. Instead it combines biting political satire with the bleak outlook of a world with no future, black comedy with barbs on apathy, religion and power. The survivors, for example, are fed some kind of flour dropping from a tube that hovers in the air - later on we discover the food supervisor uses books and the Bible itself as filler for this meagre meal. There are many such short symbolic touches, perhaps not life-changing or faith-restoring, yet playful, clever and inspired.
One thing is for sure; O-BI, O-BA is not your run-of-the-mill sci-fi schlock. It overcomes its modest budget with creativity and has genuine artistic aspirations both from a writing and directing perspective. My opinion is that it should have been filmed in black and white instead of colour though. The director uses atmospheric light and shadow to great effect and it would have registered even better in stark black and white. The blue-green neon on the other hand outstays its welcome after a while. Just a minor gripe in an otherwise solid b-movie with its heart set in all the right places.
Imagine a less bleak THE ROAD (Cormac McCarthy) being injected with the satire and humour of DR.STRANGELOVE and you're getting there. See it if you can find it.
如果我看的不是机翻的资源那就是剧情真的烂到看不懂
怎么评分这么低？黑人还真的有音乐天赋，节奏感和嗓音都不错，结尾部分真人出现了
音乐太多，人物挖掘太少，不算是一个好的人物传记电影……其实这个人物值得挖掘的地方太多了，闪光点也太多了，但是导演都避开了……………
个人感觉近期蛮少见的一部女性的动作爽片，李美琪动作片还是可以哦，支持一下。
逃狱兄弟3来了，拿走不谢
导演到最后估计不知道怎么收场了，所以镜头一转，枪声过后，留下个孤影，算是了悬念：结果怎样，你们自个想吧
还有滚筒哥，哦不，谭耀文，已经太熟啦，无需赘言了～
被音乐感动得不要不要的，剧情有些凌乱无重点
“没什么是一杯苹果马提尼和一升AB型血不能解决的，是吧？”
3.5音乐好听，本身就是抱着听音乐去的，满足了，前半段睡着了，睡得很香，差点倒在隔壁男的怀里
Jennifer Hudson >>>> 《天才》第三季的Cynthia Erivo，几首名曲质量完成度之高，可以看到Jennifer为诠释所投入和付出的巨大心力- -她似乎从很久很久前就做好了准备，并毫无保留地交给所有观众。而且很神奇Tituss Burgess、Marc Maron这些喜剧背景的共演，也能熟练地拿捏各自的部分。她的出生、与母亲的创伤、隐忍、坚持再到对自己的“投诚”，Aretha的故事如同每个伟大并拥有经历的歌者，值得太多书写；但最大的感觉还是整个片做得太音乐向了，所有剧情走向和角度都完全服务于几个要在关键节点呈上的表演。之于整个民权运动的意义，音乐史更大的进程影响，篇幅都被分薄了；是得体的致敬，但不算是最有野心的传记。
剧情一如既往前任狱长在牢里展现出自己内心黑暗的一面利用别人的弱点和同情
拒绝给川普就职典礼演唱的民权灵魂歌后，为什么会离了两次婚？
回顾了Aretha前半生的故事 不过本片后半段太过着重于描写其内心的迷失与在教会中找回信仰的过程 反而弱化了她作为黑人平权运动领袖人物等社会属性的描写
故事简单的程度和手游有一拼，但故事线和人物关系都很清楚。拍啥电影啊，这个题材应该搞个沉浸式驻演音乐剧，肯定赚到了啊。
电影本身3星也颇为勉强，但音乐和本尊加持，所以还值得4星。本来立意甚佳，对于种族、性别、信仰都有相当新颖独特的视角，在泛滥成灾的blm作品中令人惊喜。可是仅仅浮光掠影地陈列着，仅止于“立意”，没有深挖，没有展开，人物自身成长与心理变化完全没有体现。弱化时代环境的影响可以理解，毕竟背景耳熟能详。几个配角十分精彩，影帝福里斯特·惠特克自不必说；Gilbert Glenn Brown这个老戏骨，虽然惊鸿一瞥，但塑造的马丁路德金却可谓无数马丁路德金中最令人印象深刻者之一。主角JH是我一直欣赏看好的个性演员，本剧表现虽然也相当出色，但被碎片化的剧本拖累太多，又比本尊的声音逊色太多，影响了演技发挥。对于主角尤其是适合的主角不多的她来说，实在遗憾。
其实节奏还是不错的，只不过大团圆结局的是建立在死者也是富家女，并且爹肯为了她不惜一切代价，不然主角再努力，结局走向也不可能是抓到真凶
作为传记中规中矩，但她本身的经历很有看点。希望多一些这样的故事激励大家为自己而活着。
非要拍外传的话，就拍前传或者中转吧，后转给他们一个美好的未来就可以了，不需要再拍出来了
歌很好听，Jennifer Hudson毕竟拿过格莱美，驾驭起来也是驾轻就熟。至于剧情感觉跟这几年的黑人传记电影基本没啥区别，大概相比Billie Holiday那部就是因为歌手个人原因和时代原因多了马丁路德金。另外，Forest Whitaker的演帝级表现没话说，几个场景里的面部表情和情绪控制真的强。
