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.
开头亚马逊女战士非常悲壮，哭了。片尾，父亲的留言也哭了。这部超长的电影不完美，但是渣导的诚意和态度足够了，完全值得满分评价。片尾的几个彩蛋走向非常颠覆暗黑，说明渣导还是想继续拍。话说DC啥时候拍弗兰克米勒的《蝙蝠侠：黑暗骑士归来》真人版
知道它有多来之不易，不忍打3星，这基本是一个导演的作品再创造过程，如美梦成真一般。虽然4小时确实够长，但该顾到的都顾到了，最关键还是铺垫了足够多的人物细节和情感，令角色更鲜活，画面也更庄严震撼。不过一定程度上放弃了传统电影的故事结构，更像是一本章回体的漫画，很多片段单领出来都绝佳，拥有足够明显的作者属性，合在一起就会顾此失彼。至少，近几年在对超英作品宏大叙事的追求上，扎导版《正义联盟》争取到了一席之地。
但他哪有某些导演剪辑版狂热粉丝黑的那么那么神，能把电影改成面目全非。
第一部和脑腻在家里看完的电影，没想到居然是这部，而且还是四个小时超爽版，一边在给脑腻科普，一边享受惬意的周末时光可能是人生最美好的事情了，总之扎导剪辑版确实很丰满，零基础入门的脑腻也可以如此津津有味。
没有太神化了啦，核心内容还是跟院线版差不多，多的内容都是扎克用来满足粉丝当初说没掉的想看的各种彩蛋细节。扎的美术能力还是不错的，但并不适合大众胃口，这版只能说也是为了扎粉了，大家开心就行。不过wb以后真的还是别这么拍了，每个英雄先站稳脚步再搞联盟彩蛋宇宙吧，不然观影有粉丝门槛，又不是拍的出色，wb没赚多，只会恶性循环。最后说说这版增添的内容最喜欢小闪的神速力片段吧。老爷一直魂牵梦绕的沙尘暴末世我个人猜是平行宇宙的露易丝死后的大超黑化，小丑之前的某件事是时空穿越关键点，平行老爷希望找到正常宇宙的大超他们来帮忙？emm虽然我希望别再有续集了，如果有的话卢瑟你这是害死丧钟了啊hh
ny和喜欢的朋友们一起看的，实在不太会打分
#FilmfestMünchen2022 感觉内地公映难了⋯ (privileged
4个小时还是太长了。超人小哥哥太帅了啊。。。
最后的为续集铺垫的部分幸亏我有点基础，要不然肯定现在一头雾水的在网上找剧情分析。
对比院线版，情节走向完全一致，结合各种预告内容说“80％以上都看过了”毫无问题，由于风格、节奏的变更，说是“完全不同的另一部电影”倒也没问题。很多桥段、设定和梗即便了解也会觉得，过于粉丝向了，而它竟然还只是承前启后的开幕。可惜埋下的太多新坑新线，应该永远不会再补完了。
英雄们还在，正如构建正义联盟背后的正义，他可能会迟到，但是永远不会缺席，我想我们也一样。
所有这些优点都加起来我们再说时长的话，反而觉得这4个小时更加的弥足珍贵了，就像片头扎导说的一样“这是一部并不应该存在的电影...感谢所有粉丝”
哎我觉得还不错？终于知道在说什么了 每个人背景更详细性格也更立体了 大战的时候每个人都有自己的贡献 也不至于感觉除了超人外都那么没用 但是为什么当年不分成上下部上映呢 华纳我悄悄在你耳边说句：天堂岛的女孩子！！！！快给个独立电影吧！！！

画面，音乐，氛围，真的都挺不错的。但超人线感觉就是胡搅蛮缠，一来他的光环太大，死了很久救了半天，活过来先捣乱，文戏拖沓，只要一出现就各种打乱节奏，最后武功又太好导致反派忽然弱鸡，倒是闪电侠和半机器人（叫啥？）都蛮动人的。
新戏从来演旧事。
好歹有前有后有动机有目的，不是一个闹剧。这部只是一个黑暗故事的开始，也是一个不太可能填上的坑。四个小时可太过瘾了。
逻辑通顺了很多，调色也不一样了，最后大战每个人都有闪光点了，重要的是配乐，终于知道正确的配乐是什么了，这才是热血。一定要两版对比看……原来那版那些尴尬的Fun真的是后面补拍的。
制作牛的，很久没看到声音做的这么好的华语电影！！冥界那条线有点被绕晕了（crooky man居然是顾桃演的
有生之年系列2.0！不负期待，有史以来最好的超级英雄电影，4h看完只想说一句:“扎导牛逼！”
