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.
电影是四星的，四字真的太可了，但是后来看了中美各自拍的长津湖及其它抗美援朝相关的纪录片，又觉得电影里虚构的部分强调和弱化的真实人物很遗憾
太震撼了，为了我们的下一代，这场战争我们必须打”。
整部电影没有亮点，也没什么特殊的主题升华，但是时长确实很长打斗的场面还是比较宏大的，但是确实一般，可能是因为剧情铺的比较散，比较零碎，重点战役没有讲好
lg的牺牲 我相信没有谁看了会不为之动容 先辈们真的很伟大 不能忘记今日的幸福是先辈们用身躯换来的
比预告片差远了，没有新意，战争片段有点混乱，个人觉得还不如金刚川
战争场面拍的太真实了，零下40多度的冰天雪地，兄弟间的细腻情感，战士对祖国这份土地的爱，甚至还拍出了毛岸英之死。我记得之前关于毛岸英牺牲的细节，其他影视剧里都是含糊带过的，而这些都是真实发生过的，我们今天看到的，是几十年前的他们经历的，心里就有种说不出的感谢。
战争是现实而残酷的。
最后的大决战太拉胯了，夜战才是亮点，长城那段好评，期待后面续集！
哪有什么岁月静好，只不过有人替你负重前行。
看的昆明场首映，从剧本到导演到演员都是五星的水平，非常享受的三个小时视听盛宴，尤其是imax的音效非常震撼，然鹅这么优越的画面也只是这个电影其中一个优点吧，值得夸赞的地方可太多了。正式上映会二刷嘿嘿。
电影中的战争场面不打折扣， 生在新中国🇨🇳 致敬中华人民共和国伟大的军人英雄们！ 也感动于拍摄这部电影的所有演员们，你们让当代年轻人看到了历史。
勿忘历史，勿忘英雄。
节奏有问题，看了半天以为到高潮了，却戛然而止……
感谢《长津湖》将这段历史这样好的呈现在我们面前。
这场仗如果我们不打，那就是我们的后代来打。想想还是流泪
第3265-向19万多烈士致敬。
我真的觉得现在的年轻人应该好好看看这电影，我也还能算年轻人吧，从头就开始哭，一部电影让人为之动容，它已经足够好了。
最为重要的杭美援朝的传达，保家卫国，让下一代不用经历战火
比预期好点，也就好一点吧。那群在冰雪里冻住的人更值得书写。如果战争只爽，痛苦一笔带过，会让年轻人有很多不切实际的意淫
三个小时看起来我也不漫长，演技没得说，制作没得说，扣掉的分是因为情节，bug真的不少。
