Set in an underground dungeon inhabited by bundled, ragged human beings, after the nuclear holocaust. The story follows the wanderings of a hero through the situations of survival. People wait for the Ark to arrive and rescue them while their habitat falls apart.
Delving deep into the dusty and long abandonded vaults of b-cinema in search of lost gems always leaves me with a bittersweet taste. On one hand the discovery of unexpected gems where no one would think them possible is a rewarding experience. On the other hand though it makes one wonder how many of these remarkable low-budget oddities, personal love affairs of directors never quite famous and now all but forgotten, have almost forever slipped from memory?
n any case what we have here is a little post-apocalyptic gem from Poland that is really better than it has any right to. The dystopian near future of O-BI, O-BA finds a group of survivors of the nuclear war that ravaged the Earth inhabiting an underworld concrete bunker and biding their time as they wait for the mysterious Ark, an air ship of some kind that will come and save them. The Ark proves to be an elaborate hoax, carefully designed to give hope to the malnourished and desperate denizens of the bunker, while in the meantime the dome that separates their miserable existence from the nuclear winter outside is slowly caving in.
What first striked me about the movie is the design of the bunker and the depiction of the survivors. The survivors are gaunt, filthy and terrible-looking penitents, dressed in rags and aimlessly wandering the neon-lit halls of the bunker like automatons. The bunker is a rundown, seedy place, with bright neon lights peering from all sides like the eyes of malignant beasts.
On one hand it is a slightly 80's depiction of the dystopian future but the movie never stoops down to MAD MAX cheese. Instead it combines biting political satire with the bleak outlook of a world with no future, black comedy with barbs on apathy, religion and power. The survivors, for example, are fed some kind of flour dropping from a tube that hovers in the air - later on we discover the food supervisor uses books and the Bible itself as filler for this meagre meal. There are many such short symbolic touches, perhaps not life-changing or faith-restoring, yet playful, clever and inspired.
One thing is for sure; O-BI, O-BA is not your run-of-the-mill sci-fi schlock. It overcomes its modest budget with creativity and has genuine artistic aspirations both from a writing and directing perspective. My opinion is that it should have been filmed in black and white instead of colour though. The director uses atmospheric light and shadow to great effect and it would have registered even better in stark black and white. The blue-green neon on the other hand outstays its welcome after a while. Just a minor gripe in an otherwise solid b-movie with its heart set in all the right places.
Imagine a less bleak THE ROAD (Cormac McCarthy) being injected with the satire and humour of DR.STRANGELOVE and you're getting there. See it if you can find it.
这是近期看过的最好的电影之一了…三段罗生门式的叙事将不同视角的真相展现给观众 让人看到两位男性的自私虚伪和女性的弱势凄惨…看到最后的决斗你希望他赢并不是他多正义 只是希望女主能掌握自己的命运罢了 其他一切都不值得
另想疯狂吐槽的是，这么干净这么瘦这是大本？？？返老还童了？？？为什么不用这副肉体拍蝙蝠侠？？？想起了《普罗米修斯》的法鲨，是不是金发就显白显年轻啊？？？
又是一部被人提前说得太多的。实际感受是不同视角的叙事在事实上的差别没有预想得大，反而是细节上的差异更值得玩味。2021年的Ridley Scott过时了吗？并没有。我看还是Damon和Affleck更容易被时代淘汰。
虽然和《英雄》一模一样的三段结构（更早是《罗生门》）但细节填充得很漂亮，果然问题不在于重复，而在于怎样完善细节。
人类的一半与人类的另一半加深了鸿沟。
女权饮下了这碗春药，男人收获了嘲讽。
感觉大本和司机拿错了剧本，这里的大本子感觉帅回了2000年，虽然我很喜欢司机，但是姑娘们对着司机的大长脸都称赞“英俊”有点太过分了。看到后面真的想让那两蠢货双双狗带，女主一人独美母仪天下就好了，事实上，当踩着猪粪浑身臭汗和血液的马特回到家里还要摆臭脸的时候，我已经开始想象女主毒杀亲夫的画面了……
可能是我看到过的，由男性导演拍摄的最为真诚贴切的女性视角了。在这个“女权”被当作“财富密码”的年头，这种非口号式的非符号化的表达就已经是对于女性的极大尊重。多人物视角的形式虽然已不新鲜，但影院的大荧幕极为有效地放大了精心设计的细节，也多亏了优秀的演员，让我有了沉浸式的观影体验。这是其他屏幕做不到的，一个微小的动作或神情，稍微走点神就会错过，也白费了剧组的付出。原来除了动作片科幻片等大制作，叙事片也可以很适合影院啊。
两个男人为了名誉来了个痛快的殊死搏斗，一个女人充当旁观者和赌注，群众在下面叫好。真是讽刺的一幕。
22_024。看了三个晚上才看完这电影……。虽然是“罗生门式”的三段式，但拍得并不妙，没有很好的分出三段的差别来，而要说这是女权电影是真的不认同，虽然最后女主的一段拍出了两位恶劣男子的自以为是和女人地位的可怜，但前面两段实在是太……长了，当然朱迪演得很好的。最后要说一句，马迪蒙再丑，也论不到亚当当帅逼啊！
以及，在罗生门的叙事结构之下，这场最后的决斗有着惊人的说服力、情感基础和戏剧张力。
胜者王侯败者寇 | 罗生门式的三方叙述，每个人都觉得自己是好的没错的一方。不论是否强行改写记忆。而吃瓜皇帝和群众们乐得看一场决斗好戏。老实说，按照这样三方一人一个说法的话，又是信奉上帝裁决的中世纪，我是皇帝我也得判决斗。 | 从现代角度来说的确是妥妥的强奸了，只要违背女性意愿发生就是了。
黑灰色的历史背景里，偶有的路人，毛边更多抖落的是历史的灰尘。人物群像倒也不错。
强奸案是由于涉及两名骑士的决斗才被记录下来，仅仅以男性的角度记录显然是不完整的，案件的受害者失语才是整个社会的疾病。
完全能想象出呆萌和大本写剧本时满脸自鸣得意的表情。雷公你清醒点，你可是几十年前就拍了末路狂花的男人，咋就被这俩占尽了便宜的中年白男给唬住了。男人的尊严是演给别人看的，性是侵略的手段，谁不知道女性自古至今都是支配性男性气质的牺牲品？有必要怒砸一亿，把入门级性别理论在中世纪搬演了一遍，煞有介事整这出既无悬念烟雾弹，也谈不上补充了啥视角的三段叙事？
女性追求自身权利的壮举最终变成男性重建个人名望的工具，只得结尾一声叹息
阿里辞退周某那天看的，也就更有现实意义了，虽然眼下的”过气热点“，不可能被老雷以字幕圈出重点”The Truth“，甚至有可能依然不是真相，但古往今来的性别战争都在盔甲长枪的决斗场外，继续进行着。三个视角，除了至死是情圣的司机视角稍平之外，其他都很立体，人物丰富而饱满。只不过什么年代了，能不能不要再用英语讲非英语故事了呢？
看完后略失望，前面两个视角的呈现，相同场景下的呈现方式几乎一致，看着比较单调乏味。第三个受害者的视角可能是因为前面的反衬显得特别出色，对于视女人为附庸物的丈夫和自傲的强奸犯，她狠狠的打了他们的脸，两个男人自认为是调情或者温柔的时刻，在她的角度是显得多么的丑恶。最后的决斗打的真不错。
应该是2021年看到的最愚蠢的故事了，无论是叙事还是情节都刷新了我的认知下限。而且我始终不太能接受一些说法的就是，一个男人，无论出于何者目的，能拿出性命一搏，这不就是舍生求义嘛，此外还有什么更高尚的东西吗
老司机的视角里，就该死不承认强暴，建立一个为爱痴狂的好男人形象，然后再在女性视角下来一个反转，这样才更有张力一些。现在的情况是观众已经预先知道老司机强暴的事实，对他俩投入的情绪是不对等的，这场决斗在观众视角下就不是公平的决斗
