题材非常好,虽然有些专业冷门,但是这的确是关系全人类的健康问题。有非常多的影片反映商业利益和大众健康的矛盾,法律和监督最强的欧美都存在医疗商业系统腐败现象,比如本片的医院为了吃回扣拒绝安全新型注射器。在我们内部这些都更加触目惊心,比如一次性医疗器材的不合格,药品回扣等等,但是都不能说,因为最终问题指向的仍然是根本的禁忌zz话题。
目前国内HIV,肝炎,吸毒,输血等都有相当程度的注射器感染因素,如果我们也使用推注后针头自动缩回从而无法再次使用的新型注射器,一样可以极大降低感染概率。国外可以通过法律投诉,国内只能寄希望于官员,世卫组织的人说的非常好,“我们非常重视中国的医疗卫生问题,因为提高地球四分之一人口的健康水平,也就能够极大促进全球民众的健康(注:随着开放的加深和人口流动范围的扩大,国内医疗感染很容易放大成国际问题,同样国外的HIV等也在国内局部大爆发),所以我们非常希望中国官员能够真正的关注其本国民众的健康。”不过现实是我们呼吸的是,吃的是,喝的是,业内的玩笑话就是中国老百姓是地球上最顽强的生物,能够在任何极端的环境、社会、经济压力下存活,尽管我们的子代携带更多的遗传突变,未来仍然是我们中国老百姓的。
回到影片本身,虽然主角卖力表演,也没法弥补简单的剧情。可能国外导演对于这种大众健康话题比较敏感,不愿用各种花招技巧设计成刺激眼球的法庭激辩类商业大片,和最近的以SARS事件为脚本的大牌云集的影片一样的枯燥乏味,但是从医疗业内人士看却更加真实。最后的亮点就是那首主题曲,独立摇滚乐队Silversun Pickups的代表作之一Rusted Wheel,歌词很内涵。

So you can't hold a star in your hand though
At least you can hold on to another plan
Rusted wheel planted still
I can tell it's summer from the
Size of the bugs that fly through my window
Flying through my window
Rusted wheel planted still
Rusted wheel can't move on
I can tell it's winter from the
Size of the lump in my throat
Got a lump in my throat
Rusted wheel planted still
Rusted wheel can't move on
And it feels just like the ground
But trapped in another way
Just still in the ground
And it feels just like the ground
And trapped in another way
Just still in the ground
So you can't hold a star in your hand though
At least you can move on to that better plan
Rusted wheel planted still
Rusted wheel can't move on...
前阵子就下了这部电影,是在评分不高的情况下下载的,一般评分不高我不会太关注,但是因为看到了介绍,电影的题材是我喜欢的类型,所以没有犹豫就下载了高清的版本,在网速不快的情况下。
这个故事是真实的, 主角是个“瘾君子”,但他的内心却是存在着一种神圣的光辉,他的生活可以说是一塌糊涂, 在工作的低谷期是他最需要人帮助的时候,然而他选择了帮助别人,而且这个帮助并不简单,是要面对一种相当大的黑暗邪恶势力,这种势力充斥着贪婪与自私, 而主角的阵营只有一个 还要为生活而奋斗着的拍档,一个有良心却处处受排挤的发明家。 这个故事也许应该引发我们的思考———为了自己的贪婪,就该抛弃良心吗?甚至用邪恶的方法去抹杀正义? 我们该好好反醒。 在此,再次向 克里斯·埃文斯 膜拜一下,确实演得不错,他演超人时让我觉得他是大正派,这里把一个瘾君子演得很到位,各种粗犷。。 也为事件真实的主角敬个礼, 人生匆匆几十年, 最重要的是有作为,他做到了。 也许未来, 就因为这样的人们,世界会变得很美好, 人人都会幸福快乐,这才是真正人们需要的,因为大家快乐才是真的快乐, 其实很多人都意识到,但是他们觉得这很困难,所以将自己的快乐建立在别人的痛苦上,可是他也许没意识到,就算再聪明,也只能得到一倍的快乐,如果人人快乐,那么这种快乐将会成 倍数的增长、
说了有点多,也许有人看不懂, 但这些都是我想说的。
好了,祝福大家幸福快乐。
Do I wanna take down any note? Maybe.
Michael David Weiss, the fucked up lawyer, the miserable loser, and the one who fell off before seeing his impossible triumph, left a question to us: Why could such an asshole bring strength to people around him after his doomed failure?
He was destined to get endless troubles after that reckless decision, made along with his partner Paul Danziger, to accept the big case against the powerful monopoly of medical industry. They were nobody back then, and Michael himself was already problematic at the time - he was a druggie, with an unstable family. Anyway, it was already a mission impossible.
They saw the difficulties from the very beginning, but they wanna bring the valuable products to the publicity through this case. They hoped that this new kind of safety syringes could save numerous lives from accidents or unclean reused needles.
Quite soon, Michael and Paul found themselves losing businesses, losing insurances and losing cooperators. And it's quite clear who were behind all these. Unable to transfer this devastating case to any other law agents, they had to go on by themselves. But they couldn't hold on there long enough without supplies. Even after they managed to see an Senator for help, they learned quickly that the monopoly started to donate cashes to the Senator.
In fact during the way of the case, Michael was not so firm. He also hesitated, but he chose to fight in the end. After his partner decided to accept a deal from the Monopoly for the client, he went up to see the representative of the Monopoly to show he wouldn't quit and would fight by himself alone. Then suddenly he died one day after a drug overdose, with some one-time needles by the side of him. He lost his own life before he could save more.
Learning the death, Paul and the safety syringes producers changed their attitudes, refused the deal already made with the Monopoly and decided to go on to the court. Now more and more hospitals are using this new safety syringes.
As a fool, playboy, madman, druggie and also a lawyer and friend, Michael's behavior demonstrated the verse repeated in the film:
"Sometimes the brightest light comes from the darkest place."
这片一股含药量超标的味道,看完像宿醉一场,跟着主角在痛苦和幻觉中挣扎窒息。
Mike Weiss,一部分的他傲慢放荡无可救药,另一部分则勇敢无畏不撞南墙不回头,你期待他脱胎换骨改过自新,但现实并非童话,心怀大义的瘾君子,终究成不了拯救世界的英雄,只能不停坠落,以死为代价把黑幕撕开一个小口……
克里斯桃总是能完美驾驭这类游走在善恶灰色地带的角色,复杂危险的气质在他身上无比自然,仿佛生来如此,这才是他最迷人的地方,阳光美好背后藏着堕落天使般的疯狂因子。
Mike Weiss是英雄吗?这个问题随着他的突然死亡而永远无法给出答案。电影的结局皆大欢喜,但结局里没有那个在夜里焦虑、痛哭、因毒瘾发作而倒地抽搐,哭过之后独自驾车离开的男人。
show them how ordinary you can be!
美队教你如何在吸毒期间保持好身材!其实片子的现实意义远大于片子本身,为此加一星吧
平淡的故事。更应归类于医疗黑幕片而非法庭片。律师被大案件吸引,吞不下又吐不出,最后凭借热血和对正义的爱让案件有了损己利人的发展。有点眼熟的梗概不是吗?不过人家号称是真实事件改编,你有啥好说的。ps,结尾那五六个律师助理男女黑白高矮胖瘦一字排开的阵势,真让人无语到顶。
剧情实在是太太太苍白了/_\ 期待太高了我... 幸好还有埃文斯的麻搜可看!
题材不错,但太平淡了,觉得没高潮。CE卖肉不错,演技进步了
其实我是抱着看甜心卖肉的心情去看的⋯⋯没想到这个故事还挺震撼的,虽然又有社交网络的影子又有换子疑云的影子⋯⋯结尾略显别扭,整体四星,甜心加一星⋯⋯就华丽地满分了⋯⋯
美国队长!!!!!!!!!
剧情的平庸让演员的表演和结尾的死亡重头戏也如白开水般平淡。美国队长最近接演的几个角色是不是和《暮色》系列里的小狼一样签了一个条约----《每10分钟裸露一次上身》
没有一个人是干净的,但起码要有勇气站在正义的一边.
真人真事改编,由此可预见国内的医疗器械交易中的黑暗,可是就有人敢说实话,也有人默默无声任生命流逝。安全针管至今没在中国见过!!!
SOMETIMS THE BRIGHTEST LIGHT COMES FROM THE DARKEST PLACES.为什么一定要等人死了,才会受到冲击!才会做出改变呢!!为什么一开始就不全力以赴呢!!!确实要引人深思!却也点到为止了!三星吧。希望还能更好的。
官司打得再好也改变不了这个世界的现状,经济基础决定上层建筑这句话说的不错。
通过律师来描写行业垄断下的无奈
小人物对抗大集团的出发点总让人摸不着头脑 全片无高潮 平庸
Chris Evans的演技总是有点可循。题材不错 额外还喜欢那样的插曲。喜欢这种富有残缺命运的勇士突然奋起拼杀时的狂野追逐感 若说他们是如此这般的作出了对全人类事业的贡献 也好像是在摧残他们的执着的理想和牛掰的智商。
片子拍的太平淡,没有起伏,只是事情让人存有敬意,不管他是想出人头地还是捍卫正义,敢坚持自己认为对的事就不是愚蠢
这种高司令式的角色还真不是你想挑战就能挑战的;拍得也够闷,法庭戏镜头晃什么晃啊?
早已对假恶丑习以为常,一旦出现真善美的happy ending就会觉得做作,自然减掉一颗星...P.S.即使那结局是真的...
Chris Evans还是可以努努力的
医疗行业循环使用一次性针头,导致AIDS和一些疾病的传染,这就是这样一部关于医疗行业腐败内幕的电影。根据真实事件改编,纯文戏的片子,略显平淡,但Chris Evans带来了一次让人印象深刻的表演,一个PLAYBOY,一个瘾君子,更关键的是不停的卖弄肌肉,而且最后的DRAMA很出乎意料。★★★
