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.
听过很多她的歌曲，还是第一次了解其人的生平，也是不断努力找回自己的旅程，只不过困难很多很多。
比隔壁反贪风暴系列强点，起码结局篇没烂尾，逃狱这个ip说不出哪里好看但也不算很差，但是看结尾彩蛋的意思，还要出前传or后传，😱，认真的？BTW, 演张sir的邹文正好靓仔，反贪风暴4的时候我居然没留意到他，希望他多拍点电影哈哈哈！

中规中矩的套路音乐传记片，仍然依靠强势表演保持水准
3.5 标准传记片该有的样子，只是这种着重标记主人公每个重要节点的方式，多少有那么点欠生动、欠流畅。Jennifer Hudson对这样的角色驾轻就熟，足够精湛。她宛若天籁的嗓音，演绎的每一首震慑人心的歌曲，或许是这部电影最棒的地方。
罗列了Aretha Franklin的25岁人生之前的大事迹 给不认识她的观众 做了一个基础的科普 可惜的是 并没有有的放矢地放大她的人格魅力 表演也有点做作 只能沦落为好莱坞又一跟风之作
流水线模板人物纪录片，看完并没有很清晰的富兰克林的画像出现在脑海里。
都是谁给了她心魔，又是谁带她走回光明。#靠近男人会变得不幸#
勉强完结，剧情进一步弱化，三部看下来张建声是个好演员。
好莱坞真是太现实了，马丁坎贝尔作为一个拍过无数经典动作片，两次拯救007电影的一线大导演，就因为一部《绿灯侠》扑街了，就再也没有A级制作的资源了，连续几部都是这种B级动作片，女杀手复仇这剧情，maggie Q演你就说是《尼基塔》电影版也没毛病。
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？
虽然每一步的逃狱都不能让人眼前一亮，但是好在人物塑造的都很鲜明，暖暖的兄弟情真让人羡慕。
疫情之前看到预告就想看了，结果现在才上映。我觉得非常好啊，不知道为什么网上评价不高的样子，大概是自己做过的话会对各种排练和演出的场景比较有共鸣于是评价会比较高🌚🌚🌚……批评主要是说内容松散没有明确的故事线，不过一个活人的人生不是按剧本设计好的，本来就很难有什么明确的故事线啊。
着实没想到这居然拍成了一个系列，第三部明显悬念少了很多。陈豪打了个酱油，熬到了最后一部的刀疤竟然领了盒饭，可惜了。
逃到不想逃，看完感觉什么都没看一样。监狱不像监狱，更像是一个养老院。
故事更簡單了，沒想到竟然搞了三部曲，陳豪你去幹嘛了
机械式地看完了两个半钟头，基本入不了戏，宗教部分无法共情，肥花演技emmm 整体跟Ray差远了
整部电影都是在靠主角姐姐的脸在撑着，电影总是在该干什么事的时候不干什么事。
接近2个半小时 感觉就在等最后Aretha出现 献一颗星
中规中矩的传记片。女主角很认真的表演，很用力的卖唱。3.5星
