In 1961, Stanislaw Rozewicz created the novella film "Birth Certificate" in cooperation with his brother, Taduesz Rozewicz as screenwriter. Such brother tandems are rare in the history of film but aside from family ties, Stanislaw (born in 1924) and Taduesz (born in 1921) were mutually bound by their love for the cinema. They were born and grew up in Radomsk, a small town which had "its madmen and its saints" and most importanly, the "Kinema" cinema, as Stanislaw recalls: for him cinema is "heaven, the whole world, enchantment". Tadeusz says he considers cinema both a charming market stall and a mysterious temple. "All this savage land has always attracted and fascinated me," he says. "I am devoured by cinema and I devour cinema; I'm a cinema eater." But Taduesz Rozewicz, an eminent writer, admits this unique form of cooperation was a problem to him: "It is the presence of the other person not only in the process of writing, but at its very core, which is inserperable for me from absolute solitude." Some scenes the brothers wrote together; others were created by the writer himself, following discussions with the director. But from the perspective of time, it is "Birth Certificate", rather than "Echo" or "The Wicked Gate", that Taduesz describes as his most intimate film. This is understandable. The tradgey from September 1939 in Poland was for the Rozewicz brothers their personal "birth certificate". When working on the film, the director said "This time it is all about shaking off, getting rid of the psychological burden which the war was for all of us. ... Cooperation with my brother was in this case easier, as we share many war memories. We wanted to show to adult viewers a picture of war as seen by a child. ... In reality, it is the adults who created the real world of massacres. Children beheld the horrors coming back to life, exhumed from underneath the ground, overwhelming the earth."
The principle of composition of "Birth Certificate" is not obvious. When watching a novella film, we tend to think in terms of traditional theatre. We expect that a miniature story will finish with a sharp point; the three film novellas in Rozewicz's work lack this feature. We do not know what will be happen to the boy making his alone through the forest towards the end of "On the Road". We do not know whether in "Letter from the Camp", the help offered by the small heroes to a Soviet prisoner will rescue him from the unknown fate of his compatriots. The fate of the Jewish girl from "Drop of Blood" is also unclear. Will she keep her new impersonation as "Marysia Malinowska"? Or will the Nazis make her into a representative of the "Nordic race"? Those questions were asked by the director for a reason. He preceived war as chaos and perdition, and not as linear history that could be reflected in a plot. Although "Birth Certificate" is saturated with moral content, it does not aim to be a morality play. But with the immense pressure of reality, no varient of fate should be excluded. This approached can be compared wth Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Blind Chance" 25 years later, which pictured dramatic choices of a different era.
The film novella "On the Road" has a very sparing plot, but it drew special attention of the reviewers. The ominating overtone of the war films created by the Polish Film School at that time should be kept in mind. Mainly owing to Wajda, those films dealt with romantic heritage. They were permeated with pathos, bitterness, and irony. Rozewicz is an extraordinary artist. When narrating a story about a boy lost in a war zone, carrying some documents from the regiment office as if they were a treasure, the narrator in "On the Road" discovers rough prose where one should find poetry. And suddenly, the irrational touches this rather tame world. The boy, who until that moment resembled a Polish version of the Good Soldier Schweik, sets off, like Don Quixote, for his first and last battle. A critic described it as "an absurd gesture and someone else could surely use it to criticise the Polish style of dying. ... But the Rozewicz brothers do no accuse: they only compose an elegy for the picturesque peasant-soldier, probably the most important veteran of the Polish war of 1939-1945." "Birth Certificate" is not a lofty statement about national imponderabilia. The film reveals a plebeian perspective which Aleksander Jackieqicz once contrasted with those "lyrical lamentations" inherent in the Kordian tradition. However, a historical overview of Rozewicz's work shows that the distinctive style does not signify a fundamental difference in illustrating the Polish September. Just as the memorable scene from Wajda's "Lotna" was in fact an expression of desperation and distress, the same emotions permeate the final scene of "Birth Certificate". These are not ideological concepts, though once described as such and fervently debated, but rather psychological creations. In this specific case, observes Witold Zalewski, it is not about manifesting knightly pride, but about a gesture of a simple man who does not agree to be enslaved.
The novella "Drop of Blood" is, with Aleksander Ford's "Border Street", one of the first narrations of the fate of the Polish Jews during the Nazi occupation. The story about a girl literally looking for her place on earth has a dramatic dimension. Especially in the age of today's journalistic disputes, often manipulative, lacking in empathy and imbued with bad will, Rozewicz's story from the past shocks with its authenticity. The small herione of the story is the only one who survives a German raid on her family home. Physical survial does not, however, mean a return to normality. Her frightened departure from the rubbish dump that was her hideout lead her to a ruined apartment. Her walk around it is painful because still fresh signs of life are mixed with evidence of annihilation. Help is needed, but Mirka does not know anyone in the outside world. Her subsequent attempts express the state of the fugitive's spirits - from hope and faith, moving to doubt, a sense of oppression, and thickening fear, and finally to despair.
At the same time, the Jewish girl's search for refuge resembles the state of Polish society. The appearance of Mirka results in confusion, and later, trouble. This was already signalled by Rozewicz in an exceptional scene from "Letter from the Camp" in which the boy's neighbour, seeing a fugitive Russian soldier, retreats immediately, admitting that "Now, people worry only about themselves." Such embarassing excuses mask fear. During the occupation, no one feels safe. Neither social status not the aegis of a charity organisation protects against repression. We see the potential guardians of Mirka passing her back and forth among themselves. These are friendly hands but they cannot offer strong support. The story takes place on that thin line between solidarity and heroism. Solidarity arises spontaneously, but only some are capable of heroism. Help for the girl does not always result from compassion; sometimes it is based on past relations and personal ties (a neighbour of the doctor takes in the fugitive for a few days because of past friendship). Rozewicz portrays all of this in a subtle way; even the smallest gesture has significance. Take, for example, the conversation with a stranger on the train: short, as if jotted down on the margin, but so full of tension. And earlier, a peculiar examination of Polishness: the "Holy Father" prayer forced on Mirka by the village boys to check that she is not a Jew. Would not rising to the challenge mean a death sentance?
Viewed after many years, "Birth Certificate" discloses yet another quality that is not present in the works of the Polish School, but is prominent in later B-class war films. This is the picture of everyday life during the war and occupation outlined in the three novellas. It harmonises with the logic of speaking about "life after life". Small heroes of Rozewicz suddenly enter the reality of war, with no experience or scale with which to compare it. For them, the present is a natural extension of and at the same time a complete negation of the past. Consider the sleey small-town marketplace, through which armoured columns will shortly pass. Or meet the German motorcyclists, who look like aliens from outer space - a picture taken from an autopsy because this is how Stanislaw and Taduesz perceived the first Germans they ever met. Note the blurred silhouettes of people against a white wall who are being shot - at first they are shocking, but soon they will probably become a part of the grim landscape. In the city centre stands a prisoner camp on a sodden bog ("People perish likes flies; the bodies are transported during the night"); in the street the childern are running after a coal wagon to collect some precious pieces of fuel. There's a bustle around some food (a boy reproaches his younger brother's actions by singing: "The warrant officer's son is begging in front of the church? I'm going to tell mother!"); and the kitchen, which one evening becomes the proscenium of a real drama. And there are the symbols: a bar of chocolate forced upon a boy by a Wehrmacht soldier ("On the Road"); a pair of shoes belonging to Zbyszek's father which the boy spontaneously gives to a Russian fugitive; a priceless slice of bread, ground under the heel of a policeman in the guter ("Letters from the Camp"). As the director put it: "In every film, I communicate my own vision of the world and of the people. Only then the style follows, the defined way of experiencing things." In Birth Certificate, he adds, his approach was driven by the subject: "I attempted to create not only the texture of the document but also to add some poetic element. I know it is risky but as for the merger of documentation and poety, often hidden very deep, if only it manages to make its way onto the screen, it results in what can referred to as 'art'."
After 1945, there were numerous films created in Europe that dealt with war and children, including "Somewhere in Europe" ("Valahol Europaban", 1947 by Geza Radvanyi), "Shoeshine" ("Sciescia", 1946 by Vittorio de Sica), and "Childhood of Ivan" ("Iwanowo dietstwo" by Andriej Tarkowski). Yet there were fewer than one would expect. Pursuing a subject so imbued with sentimentalism requires stylistic disipline and a special ability to manage child actors. The author of "Birth Certificate" mastered both - and it was not by chance. Stanislaw Rozewicz was always the beneficent spirit of the film milieu; he could unite people around a common goal. He emanated peace and sensitivity, which flowed to his co-workers and pupils. A film, being a group work, necessitates some form of empathy - tuning in with others.
In a biographical documentary about Stanislaw Rozewicz entitled "Walking, Meeting" (1999 by Antoni Krauze), there is a beautiful scene when the director, after a few decades, meets Beata Barszczewska, who plays Mireczka in the novella "Drops of Blood". The woman falls into the arms of the elderly man. They are both moved. He wonders how many years have passed. She answers: "A few years. Not too many." And Rozewicz, with his characteristic smile says: "It is true. We spent this entire time together."
很好笑，很娱乐，但是空洞至极。
非游戏玩家觉得隔靴挠痒，只有美队客串稍微痛快了下。
绝对力量的绝对臣服。原来孙锡久瞪眼的话眼睛也不小…
电影狠狠的讽刺了GTA5这种类型的游戏，游戏不只是只有暴力和抢劫才能被当作任务的，其实在现实社会中，任天堂是好好的给大家上了一课。
死侍演个上班族,意识觉醒哈.成天抢银行,还有这UI,是恶搞gta呢?这冒出的伤害数值太逗了.其实这是西部世界-GTA园区.男主的形象和台词有点像楚门,海边的呐喊也在致敬该片吧?复联和星战的彩蛋!最后一跃感动至极.以程序猿的浪漫结尾.ps女主墨镜造型太帅了,有点像蕾蒂?这是今年看的最棒的影片了!9分
我看过最可笑的爱情片。唯一有趣的是第三幕21世纪和迪士尼的联动彩蛋和CE。 游戏要怎么做出电影感，斯皮尔伯格早就给出了完美的答卷。除了廉价的流行文化元素堆叠和老套到极点的故事模版空无一物。如果让小变态和RR就这么来一段可爱的柏拉图式的罗曼蒂克或者扯淡点把RR拉到现实里都还算过得去，结果来了个脑残到极点的反转。 片名Free Guy就是个笑话，他的dream就是个笑话。本质上是对影像，角色，游戏，代码最不尊重的行为。处处强调AI生命的鲜活力，但人和代码终究是不一样啊。怪奇物语里的小哥一辈子都不可能变Ryan Reynolds！RR他表演并赋予情感的整个角色从来不曾有任何意义。Guy不仅不是真人，就连代码都是别人向他的梦中情人表白的工具。俩小时感情全tm浪费了
电影极其弱智化的对白和桥段使它成为了一部儿童电影。
这部电影分明是在讽刺gta歌颂塞尔达啊，游戏的底层代码居然是个小岛！原本人与自然和谐相处、玩家与游戏世界良性互动的游戏，被反派改造了豪车和子弹齐飞的暴力开放世界…
当然，被达斯米奇收购的福斯，在高潮还是忍不住秀了一把版权肌肉，漫威和星战一拿出来，瞬间嗨翻全场。
乘兴而来，败兴而归，虽然不想这么说，但这作的确有些狗尾续貂。 除了部分依然给力的打斗场面，其余部分，无论从反派压迫度、影片节奏气韵、警队成员有趣互动、黑帮野蛮生态侧写、自然笑点插入等等环节，相比第一部，均是全面倒退。 当然，也可能是第一部太过浑然天成，导致第二部似乎想照猫画虎，但又想有些新突破，结果画虎不成，突破也聊胜于无。 综合种种，续作观感实在称不上令人满意。
这样的原创剧本包裹一个老派内核的“传统”好莱坞大片在如今简直就是稀有动物。尽管依然存在各种各样对游戏界想当然的理解与刻板印象（找jacksepticeye来客串也没用），好在影片娱乐性与完成度都属及格线上。不过这么一个拥护原创独立制作、鄙视只会出IP衍生的主旨出自已经被达斯米奇收购的大厂，也真挺讽刺的
非常非常的工整和滑溜，别的不说，buddy和muser 两段唤醒式友情在主线副线的对比，都做得很丝滑。但工整甚至陈旧都不是问题，腐朽和粗糙才是。就像可以不喜欢学霸，但学霸没啥错，也值得抱拳一敬。
马东锡空手照样干翻带武器的，一边倒的打架看起来就是爽
马东锡打架是战无不胜啊！中国人在韩国犯罪片中除了黑帮再没另外形象了。
拳拳到肉，很过瘾，但故事性和配角塑造而言，第一部更好
爆米花电影，爱情、喜剧、动作、科幻等元素杂糅，整个故事到头来也不过是程序猿写给恋人的一封浪漫情书。
多了点搞笑的元素
旧瓶装新酒，对于职场人的振臂一呼，要活出意义要造反啊你们！然后电影人数钱
往大铁球上跳的时候，BGM一响，真的戳我笑点了。
我觉得作为商业片蛮好看的，我现在对商业片的要求就是故事能讲圆。
