540 Visual Impact

Tragic, shocking, sensation! Even dull!

Chloe completely entered the world of Sin City, and the darkness that penetrated her bones made her breathless. She knew that Muffer was not a good man. His hands were covered in blood and he was also a wanted criminal. To be precise, he was also a criminal and a member of Sin City.

However, Chloe felt sorry for Muffer. It was not because of his heroic act of revenge for his lover for thousands of miles, but because under the shadow of the City of Sin, he was forced to embark on the road of crime and use violence to defeat violence. When a society completely loses order, everyone will face struggles on the edge of the bottom line of survival, which is also the most terrifying place in war, but the "City of Sin" has created a city that is more terrifying, bloodier and colder than war. This is why Chloe felt the shock of his soul.

Lance once again broke people's fixed thinking, once again presented the depth of art with rich lens language, and once again shaped the character with sharp but delicate details.

From the full and round real tone of "City of God", to the use of light that wanders between true and false, to the "City of Sin" that breaks through the shackles of the framework, step by step, and bolder each time, Chloe suddenly realized that these three movies are actually a movie.

When she realized this, Chloe couldn't help but turn her head and subconsciously wanted to find something. Then she saw Emerson's excited eyes. Neither of them spoke, but the expressions in her eyes were so similar. Chloe knew that she was not the one who had such thoughts.

Emerson was shocked, excited, and excited. After fifty minutes of watching the movie, his emotions reached saturation, and his thoughts were excited with countless thoughts. He needed some time to cool down, but the movie was not over yet. However, there was one thing he could confirm that "City of Sin" would become a masterpiece that was recorded in history, and there was no doubt.

Looking at Muffer who was sent to the electric chair and the bishop covered in blood, Emerson couldn't help but think of the recent news incident of "the church sexually assaulting minors" that has caused a global sensation.

Under the protection of the church, the terrifying sin is spreading, and the dirty hands are stretched toward the young and ignorant children. It is hard to imagine how those children who have been traumatized will get rid of these shadows during their growth. According to preliminary statistics from the Boston Globe, most children choose to commit suicide or sink, and those who have been able to grow up call themselves "survivors". All of this happens in the church that shines on believers in the name of God, which is dirty, shameful, terrifying, and shocking.

What's even more terrifying is that the bishop had known all this fifty years ago. If it weren't for his cover, if it weren't for his acquiescence, if it weren't for his indulgence, things wouldn't have developed to this point.

Ironically, in "City of Sin", Kevin deceived the prostitutes one by one to his farm, tortured them to death, and then devoured every corpse, not only flesh and blood, but also bones, and even souls. The bishop not only acquiesced to all this, but also promoted it with his own hands.

How ridiculous, absurd, and so sad. The so-called "hand of God" has become the executioner who strangles the soul.

If you think more closely, why did things become more and more intense in half a century, and no one has ever discovered it? This is not a case of one or two, but hundreds of victims, spread all over the world. Has no one ever discovered it? Or, the news media has never reported it?

Why is the "Boston Globe"? Why is it today half a century later? Why is the news reported before again, but no one has ever really taken it seriously?

Hidden behind that disgusting sin is the indifference and neglect of society for half a century! It is a terrible reality that is so cruel that angels cry for it! It is an endless hell without heaven, sunshine, and hope! The silence and tolerance of the entire society, the silence and indifference of the news media, all of which have become a breeding ground for sin, and even promoted the continuation of sin with one's own hands.

All of this is exactly the core topic that Lance has been discussing in his previous three films!

From "City of God" to "killing people with a knife" to "City of Sin", Lance has always been discussing a question: Where will the indifference and coldness of society eventually go?

When the whole society began to become cold and alienated, turning a blind eye to the sins around him, or even indulging in him. When they became victims of sin, they discovered that they had turned to the law enforcement agencies of the unstoppable government to become the back garden of criminals. The news media of the uncrowned king has gone to the forefront of interests and entertainment until death. Even the religious beliefs placed on the soul have become the end of the hell that breeds sin. They either explode or die.

Now the big screen is showing the answer he gave. A virtual city, a world that relies on reality but projects an illusory world, a lawless and crime-ridden land was born.

Not only stories, not only characters, but even colors and light have become Lance's weapons. It seems completely different, but it is also in line with each other. Lance outlines a magnificent blueprint through three works, and "Welcome to your Sin City" rebuilds this cycle, from reality to illusion, from illusion to reality.

It turns out that starting from the "City of God", this chess game has already begun to be laid out!

If it weren't for the movie watching, Emerson would have wanted to stand up and applaud directly. The trembling that penetrated his soul made him just want to scream and shout, vent all his excitement and excitement. "Lance is a genius, Lance is a fucking genius!" But Emerson did not, because the audience in the screening room could no longer control his emotions and began to scream out of control. The shouts mixed with excitement and fear sounded intermittently and uncontrollably, causing the screening room to gradually evolve into a part of the City of Sin.

A flying knife swirled, cutting off Jieqi's left hand from his wrist, and the whole hand holding the pistol was cut like a toy. Meiling, wearing a Chinese-style embroidered cloak, showed the lightness and neatness of the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". This is definitely the bloodiest scene since the beginning of the movie. Meiling raised her sword and fell, and a large amount of fluorescent blood sprayed everywhere like a fountain. It was obviously not infiltrated by any color, but it was still a black and white picture, but the shocking power created triggered a tsunami.

There could even be heard in the scene.

Jieqi rolled and crawled, picked up his broken hand, then bit his finger with his teeth, and held the pistol again in his right hand. Such a black and humorous picture made the psychological unhappiness reach the extreme. At the end of the picture, Meiling cut Jieqi into two halves with a sword, just like a paper man, but no drop of blood penetrated out. The two bodies slowly fell to both sides, and then Meiling's cold and proud face was exposed, but the shocking effect increased exponentially.

Someone really started vomiting at the scene, but the strange thing was that no one left.

This caused a little commotion, and many people turned their heads and complained in a low voice, but it was only a moment, because then people turned their attention to the big screen again, and no one was willing to miss the movie, just like someone was unwilling to leave even if they vomited.

Emerson did not like the fourth story because this story seemed too old-fashioned, and it was more like a crime movie from the 1980s. It lacked the sharpness and wisdom of the first three stories, and the core ideas that Lance injected into the film, as if it was wandering outside the entire creative story.

Dee White was a criminal before. After plastic surgery, he became the boyfriend of the bartender Shirley and helped her teach her a lesson in her tangled ex-boyfriend, the violent Jackey. But Dee White finally found something wrong. He followed Jackey to the old town ruled by prostitutes. Jackey did not follow the rules and was killed by the prostitutes. Later, Dee White discovered that Jackey was a policeman, and his death destroyed the agreement between the prostitutes and the police. Therefore, Dee White had to help them cover up the crime and protect them.

Even though Lance "resurrected from the dead", watching Deewright sit in the car and talk to Judge who was divided into two, the bizarre images are amazing, and the absurd and unruly carries some surrealism. But Emerson still doesn't like this story, it's too perfunctory, and it even seems out of place for the whole movie.

But soon Emerson changed his mind.

The prostitutes set up traps and gathered all the police together, as well as the traitors inside the prostitutes. Then they took out submachine guns and began to shoot. Such bloody and violent scenes showed some poetry in the black and white slow motion, especially the gunfire attacked by the heavy rain, which dispelled the thick darkness bit by bit. The collision between sin and sin was sublimated by lightning and thunder.

The dark clouds in the sky were dyed red, not the color of burning clouds, but the red color of blood, rich and ostentatious, wanton and majestic.

This made Emerson almost want to applaud, ironic and humorous, sharp and delicate, every character is so vivid, evil and more evil, crazy and even more crazy, every picture is so wonderful, absurd and bizarre, weird and bold. Everything makes the bloody violence of the whole movie completely out of control.

This is the city of sin, the real city of sin! A city watered by blood, a land of sin, a world without order, norm, and justice! When society begins to ignore, when society begins to remain silent, when society begins to tolerate sin, it is born like this! To be continued.
