You are never fully liberated from Auschwitz, 11 July 2016 Author: Red-125 from Upstate New York The French movie "À la vie" was shown in the U.S. with the translated title "To Life (2014)." It was written and directed by Jean-Jacques Zilbermann. The film is a Post-Holocaust saga, although it opens with scenes in Auschwitz that are truly horrific. Hélène (Julie Depardieu) and Lily (Johanna ter Steege) were friends in Auschwitz, and they managed to survive the death march from Auschwitz to Louslau together. A third friend, Rose (Suzanne Clément) was unable to walk, so they were forced to leave her behind. As it turned out, Rose survived until the liberation of Auschwitz. The three did not see each other again until 1962, when they come together for a reunion at a beachside resort in Northern France. We learn early in the movie that Lily divorced her husband after the war, and is living as a "free soul," with no permanent partner. Hélène and Rose both married concentration camp survivors. The plot of the film--based on the lives of three actual friends--revolves around their interactions during the reunion. No matter how much ice cream they eat, and how they display their new bathing suits, thoughts keep circling back to Auschwitz. They quarrel about tiny details which they remember differently. They revive horrible memories. It's clear that the reunion will change their lives, but whether the change will be for the better or for the worse is an open question. For reasons I don't understand, "To Life" caries a terrible IMDb rating of 6.1. Fortunately, we saw it as part of the excellent Rochester Jewish Film Festival. If we hadn't had "All-Event" tickets, we probably would have stayed home. This is a movie to be seen, not missed. Ignore the rating and seek it out. It's available on DVD, and it will work well on the small screen. See it!
打破了荧幕界线，算是不错的尝试，但剧情无论是深度还是趣味性都略显不足。
有点Adaptation的味道，但是剧本还是好单薄呀，按照固定的三幕剧程式按部就班地发展。Javi说要去悬崖边讨论剧本的第三幕的时候，电影也正好进入第三幕，好酷的叙述方式。说到底这是一部除了凯奇叔以外其他人谁演谁怪的电影。
个人中译片名：《奇才重任》。
最初有多期待现在就有多讨厌。贯彻「摆烂」自嘲路线杂糅动作类型狗血桥段成就了远远不如影片自喻帕丁顿熊2的史诗烂片。剧本借凯奇自身经历和参演电影让现实和表演不断彼此反射与渗透的元叙事只有概念有趣，成品依然是它嘲讽玩梗的类型电影和无聊喜剧，在一段又一段造作自反评论和无聊电影说教与AI输入提示生成情节转折的套路集成之间更像一部段子集，落幕在重返舞台和家庭团圆的恶俗结局似乎也已放弃作任何思辨的尝试。一流的粉丝纪念收藏屋，二流的兄弟拯救女人间谍故事，三流的电影明星商业大片。更让我真心难过的是，毫无疑问银幕内外的凯奇都在表演者和大明星的天才名利天平之上反复挣扎，然而影片仅仅触及了这种矛盾的表面把它变成彻底轻浮的闹剧，唯一的闪光与乐趣都来自凯奇和帕斯卡表演的交锋以及对他事业的回顾，但它们仅占时长的十分之一。
小妞那板牙一看就像凯特贝金赛尔，一查果然是她的女儿
两个男人好友的中年危机 套在自己演自己的包装里
我非常喜欢，尤其前半部。披着烂片的皮，讲了一个友情和成长的故事。
嗯，突破次元壁的一部作品，挺有意思的，凯奇迷绝对福利哈哈~~~给我的感觉就是凯奇的女儿太可爱啦~~~~~
凯奇债务终于还清，片子虽然属于自嘲恶搞类型，但是片方正式看上了这一点所以将其发挥到了极致。总体观感类似王牌保镖，喜剧+动作的设定百看不厌。
一百多年来有如此多优秀的电影，这个问题的答案受限于这个季节，我现在的情绪。
凯奇的商业片要是都能有这水平的话显然是不用担心未来的。
太爱了，连这种传统意义的BIAS都爱死了，哈哈，美国人看欧洲人总是有点疯的，欧洲人看美国人总是有点蠢的。其实没有特工那条线其实也挺可爱的，就是一个热爱电影的疯NEW MONEY追求兴趣爱好的事，哈哈
【C－】自嘲喜剧什么的最好看了。结尾还是感动到，完成了两个重要任务：狠狠宣告凯奇的回归，以及狠狠向全世界安利了《帕丁顿熊2》🤩
尼克·他妈的·凯奇，是翻身作么？不是。我演我自己只是个噱头罢了，注定不会大火也不会获奖。他开心就好，我们看着也挺开心的。就行了，红毒蛇真他妈憨批。。。。
剧本调皮，尼古拉斯凯奇的铁杆粉都在期待这么一部电影吧
凯奇滤镜加一星。即使不看关于凯奇的众多彩蛋，这也是近年来凯奇难得的一部大众向的decent电影，又是一部官方的fan art电影。虽然很显然，导演想既捧着凯奇，又要满足自己作为粉丝旺盛的表达欲，同时还要照顾观众的感受，搞的成品非常仓促比较粗糙，远欠打磨。有挺多细节我都挺感动的，比如粉头暴言“放弃你自己的才华就等于放弃整个人类”，虽然夸张但从某种意义而言的确如此。但都没有怎么深入，所有的情感都浮于表面，隔靴搔痒。最近几年不断的有粉丝导演拍自己偶像或者有着光环的过去岁月的电影，比如无双，好莱坞往事，但风格却不尽相同，究其根本还是因为导演的才华和思想的深度。ps没有在电影院看过空中监狱，变脸这些电影真的很遗憾。pps凯奇的表演深度远不止如此
PS.帕丁顿熊也不错，大家都有品位！
27.04.2022 | 这个不知道算不算是喜剧的东西并没有逗乐我，全程太尬了。近期的院线中可期待的难道只有Men和NOPE了吗。（这还要等到海枯石烂）
自我救赎来自于自我致敬，或许凯奇的演艺生涯真的走到尽头了。
台词好几次说他又回来了，尼古拉斯凯奇总要接一句，从没过气过。[哈哈]但他要重回巅峰谈何容易，靠这一部电影肯定不行，但至少他回到主流制作了吧，其实他去年主演的《猪》就相当不错了，算一个好的开始。
