Bombshell is recommended; it’s a fun watch, often surprisingly funny, and snappily directed by Jay Roach (Trumbo, Dinner for Schmucks). Plus, it’s always entertaining to see actors summon well-known real people in a persuasive way. But given what it is and the climate it’s arriving into, it could have been so much more.

An explosive piece of entertainment that also means to make a difference. Listen up.
It’s impressive that Bombshell is able to discuss all the issues at hand all at once.
It is as harrowing as it is triumphant in its depiction of the way it all came to pass.
A superb drama about sexual harassment at Fox News.
One of the most compelling stories of the #MeToo movement is told unflinchingly, empathetically and authentically, with Charlize Theron completely nailing the knotty character of Megyn Kelly.
Bombshell is a scalding and powerful movie about what selling, in America, has become. The film is about selling sex, selling a candidate, selling yourself, selling the truth. And about how at Fox News all those things came together.
Theron is gobsmackingly good as the real-life screen queen determined to unearth the victims of Fox News’ most powerful predator.
The actors throw themselves into their roles with terrific zeal, enlivened by the often blunt dialogue and the issues at stake.
Bombshell belongs to its three main female stars. It’s their fierce, finely shaded performances that transcend the film’s drab visual style and drier episodic moments — not just by speaking truth to power, but by confronting the audience’s own ideas of who the right to do that belongs to.
五星都不够我打的,不懂为什么分数这么低,估计男人不爱看吧。很真实,受害者站出来太需要心理素质,被人质疑,无人支持,但站出来了之后,孤军奋战太为难熬,好不容易打倒了一个敌人,站上来的仍然是另一个敌人或许说是潜在的敌人。不知道要多少场这样的战争才能看到乐土的希望?太多站出来的受害人遭遇到的却是witch hunt
统一口径,明哲保身,性别红利与性别剥削,权力基础话术:“你自己回去思考一下该怎么办。”……简单直白正邪分明的政治娱乐片
电梯戏简直了
一颗炸弹落下时,即便是在看似同一个价值取向的编辑部里,各种人的表现也大相径庭,每个人的反应都会远远超出预料,那些为当权者做伥鬼,做啦啦队,做告密者的人在上演更耐人寻味的一场戏。很多人诟病的三女主交集少,正是现实中的日常,联盟没那么好缔造,忠于自己的价值观本来就是件需要勇气的难事。对我来说片子最后10分钟才是最精彩的地方。
有些豆瓣评论让我好怒 有些人是不是变成受害者了才能共情?
为什么看完这种电影还有人在评论里只知道说演员真漂亮
7分,三个女演员都有属于个人的表演时间,而且也都发挥很出色。尤其是塞隆和妮可的特效化妆,简直大变脸啊。片子本身的处理其实还挺难给反高潮的,而且有意更增加真实感,也更讽刺。也是不少人批评叙事比较松散的原因。这确实是不那么重心在叙事上的电影,但是,其实挺有意思的,尤其是那些画外音。
好演员烂剧本
这部电影的平淡乏味、态度模糊说明了一个道理:Libertard和Republican在某些方面其实是一类人……… 啊不过几个女演员实在是很不错,尤其塞隆这样漂亮又顶级演技的演员是好莱坞最该珍惜的宝!
为小女孩办公室里战战兢兢拉起裙子和餐厅外电话哭诉的两幕加一星
这种政治向的电影能拍的这么平也是怪可惜的,而且还有这么棒的卡司,更觉得可惜。
spotlight 级别的卡司 全片看下来最有张力的还是第一个预告片那一幕电梯戏 其次是 margot 打电话那场独戏 / 不少评论抱怨三个女主的互动少 然而现实就是这样 被侵犯的人再多 每人也仍旧觉得自己是孤军一人
一句题外话,塞隆的短发形象实在太像董卿了
提前看了评分做好了心理准备,实际没有那么差,但这么牛逼的卡司这么有力的题材拍出来平平无奇,还是很失望的。不过 IMDB 那个 5.8 分过分了吧,大韩民国直男附体了?
margot robbie贡献了最有感染力的两幕
三人所面临的对抗相同但无交集,均去例证性骚扰只是重复无效果累加,因此既然预先定调了结局,再讲媒体人Roger已无意义,给出的肤浅形象无法从专业性与人性的反差中去评判(对比去年纪录片分歧与征服罗杰艾尔斯的故事),只能说好莱坞是生意场,如此大卡司“不念旧情”的借时政和女权东风炒热度,投机行为也像极了去年的“副总统”
撇开女性主题的话只能打三星,主要角色演技加半星,女性主题鼓励分半星。场景切换和剪辑真的有点凌乱,我还算是提前补了一下课的,都觉得有点跳tone。剧情也很松散,明明这个故事可以讲得更有意思的。
题材是好题材,只是拍得太乏味了,实在有些浪费众位的演技…节奏和剪辑稍显混乱,摄影有时会突然发大,让人有种在看纪录片的感觉。三条线交叉得也不够紧密,堆在剧情里显得好散。只能说故事值得被听到,但也值得被讲得更好。
能把一个这么惊心动魄的故事拍的如此无趣也算是种本事了。人物群像的塑造杂乱无章,有很多值得深挖的点都只是浅尝辄止,CNM三人组也只有塞隆算是出彩,基德曼和罗比的表现只能说是正常发挥
just absolutely fascinating and powerful 今年最爱的电影预定了
