一部好看的電影,我覺得除了情節緊湊、引人入勝之外,還要能發人省思,回味不斷。簡單來說 就像一家好餐廳,是會讓人想吃第二次的。
劇情敘述一個時間老是不夠用的建築設計師(Adam Sandler),常常把工作擺在第一位而忽略了家庭與妻子,直到一天遇上了Christonpher Walker給了他一只萬能遙控器,為他帶來了前所未有的人生旅程。
一個能替自己人生快轉倒帶的遙控器!?這就好像梅爾吉伯遜得知可以透視女人心理的那種感覺。對於那些現實裡做不到的事情(例如本片),我總是想要一探究竟,想要知道片子裡到底會如何的發揮創意 揮灑想像。
最近在看日本的「世界奇妙物語」,裡面大多都是以「假如可以...」或者「假如有...」為題的短劇,例如之前PO過的美女罐頭。希望或幻想往往給予我們追尋的極大動力...
我對於裡面敘述的Fastforward Mode(快轉)印象很深刻,這也是萬能遙控器最吸引人的一項功能。
但是當人生快轉的同時,自己對於這些快轉的內容有沒有記憶呢?或者怎麼選擇?
編劇給了一個很妙的名詞:自動導航模式(Auto-Pilot),簡單來說,就是發呆,對於別人的問題則是唯唯諾諾(當然,事後也不記得有給過哪些承諾),
這種模式對我來說還真恐怖,對於快轉的歲月將毫無記憶,
很空虛的感覺...
對於主角一開始的性格,應該是很自私的
只想經歷部分快樂的時光(不是全部喔!),唔,有時候我也常想這樣做,
希望困窘痛苦的時光快快過,幸福快樂的時間越長越好。
劇中的女主角 - Kate Beckinsale,在這部片子裡的形象煥然一新,和決戰異世界裡的冷峻面貌截然不同,
這裡是一個容忍丈夫的好老婆,脾氣真的好到不能再好了,理所當然地是讓編劇用來凸顯Adam的愚蠢Orz
劇中有一個段是Kate問她老公Adam當初追她的那首歌是什麼,Adam就在那時候使用遙控器回到當初,想要知道那首歌到底是什麼。沒想到這首歌是The Cranberries 的 Linger。
好棒的一首歌...後來The Cranberries的主唱竟然也出現在裡面,真是逗趣 哈
Linger字面上的翻譯是逗留、消磨的意思,多少有點呼應電影的含意吧...
如果有一天老婆問我是誰唱的歌,我希望會是Roxette。
最後附一下Linger歌詞
Song: Linger
Singer: The Cranberries
If you, if you could return
Don’t let it burn, don’t let it fade
I’m sure I’m not being rude
But it’s just your attitude
It’s tearing me apart
It’s ruining everything
And I swore, I swore I would be true
And honey so did you
So why were you holding her hand
Is that the way we stand
Were you lying all the time
Was it just a game to you
But I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
Oh, I thought the world of you
I thought nothing could go wrong
But I was wrong
I was wrong
If you, if you could get by
Trying not to lie
Things wouldn’t be so confused
And I wouldn’t feel so used
But you always really knew
I just wanna be with you
And I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to. do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
And I’m in so deep
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
You know I’m such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger
Do you have to, do you have to
Do you have to let it linger
