第一篇:越獄英語書評
“Prison Break” Review
Even though the 2005-2006 TV season doesn’t officially start until September 19(the day after the Emmy Awards), one network has decided to start their season early.That said network would be FOX, and their first show is the prison drama “Prison Break.” Despite having a slightly unbelievable concept, it is a great way to start the season off on a good foot.Michael Scofield(Wentworth Miller)is a desperate man.His brother, Lincoln Burrows(Dominic Purcell), a death row inmate confined to Fox River State Penitentiary in Joliet, Illinois, is scheduled to die in a little over a month for the murder of the Vice President’s brother, Terrence Steadman(David Lively.)Michael has an elaborate plan to break Lincoln out of jail, and in the opening scene of the pilot, he is seen having the last of a series of tattoos applied to his body.Those tattoos are the blueprints for Fox River.In 1999, he was involved in a retrofitting job of the prison, and he still has all of the plans of the building with him.After doing all the extensive research, and adding those notes to his tattoos, he gets rid of all of the evidence.The next day, he goes into the downtown Chicago branch of United Savings Bank and attempts to steal over a half million dollars.When he is arrested, he is put on trial for armed robbery.He pleads no contest to the judge(Cheryl Lynn Bruce), despite the objections of his lawyer and childhood friend Veronica Donovan(Robin Tunney.)The judge sentences him to five years, with parole in two and a half.Michael has requested to be sent to Fox River, which the judge grants.Veronica still doesn’t understand why Michael is doing this, because he isn’t violent and he doesn’t need the money.Also, he was the only positive influence for LJ(Marshall Allman), Lincoln’s son.LJ lives with his mother, Lisa Rix(Jessalyn Gilsig), and her husband Adrian(Philip Rayburn Smith.)He has been getting into trouble lately, having been busted for possession of marijuana, and Lisa doesn’t know what to do about it.When Michael gets to Fox River, Captain Brad Bellick(Wade Williams)greets him, and tells him that he has nothing coming to him.Michael meets his new cellmate, Fernando Sucre(Amaury Nolasco.)Sucre is engaged to his girlfriend, Maricruz Delgado(Camille Guaty), though a friend of hers named Hector(Kurt Caceres)has been making a play for her.He just wants to do his time and get out so that he can get married.Meanwhile, Veronica is still troubled by the case.She is engaged to an investment banker named Sebastian Balfour(Anthony Starke), though it appears that she still thinks about Lincoln, who used to be her boyfriend.Back at Fox River, Sucre tells Michael about Charles Westmoreland(Muse Watson), whom everyone whispers is actually the infamous D.B.Cooper, who parachuted out of a plane thirty years ago with a million and a half in cash(he actually only got away with $200,000.)Charles has a cat named Marilyn who was grandfathered in b
efore Fox River prohibited pet ownership.Michael tells Sucre that Lincoln, or as the other inmates call him, “Linc the Sink”(because he’ll come at you with everything but the kitchen sink), is his brother.He wants to know how to get to Lincoln.Sucre tells him that the only way to do that is through “P.I.,” or Prison Industries(meaning the inmates who behave get to do work for the prison.)Former mob boss John Abruzzi(Peter Stormare)runs P.I., and he is the only one who can get Michael approved for it.Michael later asks Abruzzi if he can be hired for P.I., giving him a paper origami swan and telling him that he has something to offer the mob boss.Abruzzi scoffs at this new “fish” and throws away the swan.Michael does have something to offer Abruzzi though.Fibonacci is a mob informant whose testimony put Abruzzi behind bars, and he, along with mobsters Gavin Smallhouse(Gianni Russo), Philly Falzone(Al Sapienza), and Maggio(Rich Komenich), are very interested in finding the man, who is currently in witness protection.His testimony could land all of them in jail, and Falzone specifically threatens Abruzzi with harm to his kids if he doesn’t find Fibonacci.Michael visits Dr.Sara Tancredi(Sarah Wayne Callies), the prison doctor.Sara is the daughter of Illinois Governor “Frontier Justice” Frank Tancredi, a fact that she doesn’t like to tell many people about, because she differs with her father in their political beliefs.Michael has to go the infirmary for his regular insulin shots, because he has Type I Diabetes.In Washington D.C., Special Agent Paul Kellerman(Paul Adelstein)and Special Agent Danny Hale(Danny McCarthy)are trying to thwart the efforts of anyone who might free Lincoln.A man named Bishop McMorrow(Chelcie Ross)has a lot of influence with the Governor and may persuade him to grant a stay of execution.They decide to visit him and “persuade” him to back off by accusing him of tax fraud.McMorrow won’t be bullied, but later in the episode, he is shot and killed in his bed.Back at Fox River, Warden Henry Pope(Stacy Keach)asks to see Michael.He knows that Michael is a structural engineer, so he offers him three days of work a week in Pope’s office helping him build a model of the Taj Mahal made out of toothpicks.It is for his wife for their fortieth wedding anniversary, but he can’t seem to get the proper reinforcements to keep it from collapsing, and that is where Michael comes in.Michael turns down the offer at first, but a few days later, he accepts the offer when the warden threatens to throw Michael in the SHU(solitary confinement)for ninety days for fighting.The reason he was fighting was that Abruzzi got a call from Maggio that they received a picture of Fibonacci and a folded up swan.He realizes that Michael does have information about Fibonacci, and he demands that the fish tell him where the informant is.Michael will tell Abruzzi the information, but not until they are both safe outside the walls of the prison.Abruzzi takes offense to this, and he has his goons beat Michael up(he later ends up supplying Michael with his P.I.work card though.)
Back in Veronica’s office, she finds out that McMorrow has been killed, and she realizes that Michael was right when he told her that Lincoln had been set up.Michael needs PUGNAc, an insulin blocker, because he is only pretending to be diabetic so that he can spend more time in the infirmary getting things ready for his and Lincoln’s escape.He approaches a black inmate named C-Note(Rockmond Dunbar)about supplying him with some PUGNAc.Michael then looks for a bolt on a specific set of bleachers out in the yard.He has the serial number for this specific bolt tattooed on his forearm, and he finds it, but before he can screw it out of the bleacher, Theodore Bagwell, a.k.a.T-Bag(Robert Knepper), stops him.He is the leader of the Alliance for Purity, a white supremacist gang, and he has his submissive partner May Tag(Brian Hamman)with him.T-Bag says that a race war is around the corner, and he offers his protection.Michael turns him down, which ticks T-Bag off, forcing Michael to leave the bolt half-unscrewed.Veronica finds Tim Giles(Keith Diamond), Lincoln’s public defender, and asks him about a man named Crab Simmons(Tab Baker), who could have cleared Lincoln’s name.Crab is a five-time felon, so it would be a waste of time.The next day, Tim visits Veronica in her office and gives her a surveillance video of the parking garage where Lincoln had allegedly killed Terrence Steadman.It was meant to be a form of closure for her.She watches it, and then she visits Lincoln in jail to ask him about it.He tells her that he never fired his gun, and that she should do some more research.Michael goes back to finish unscrewing the bolt, but T-Bag and May Tag catch him again.T-Bag makes Michael hand over the bolt, who gives it to May Tag.Michael later goes to Abruzzi to ask him about shaking down an inmate, which he tells him he will do, as soon as Michael tells him where to find Fibonacci.Michael further frustrates Abruzzi by telling him that he will do that once they escape.Bellick does a search of Michael and Sucre’s cell(Sucre is in the SHU for having a shank during a previous shakedown)and finds the serial numbers for the bolt(he doesn’t know what those numbers mean though yet.)The numbers are accompanied by a name: “Allen Schweitzer.” He has a fellow C.O.look up the name, but he comes up with nothing.Michael searches for the bolt in May Tag’s bunk, when he is caught by T-Bag and May Tag again(they are everywhere…aren’t they?)He tells them that he wants T-Bag’s protection, and that he needs the bolt to protect himself.C-Note sees this and gets mad.He later shows Michael the bottle of PUGNAc, but tells him that he chose the wrong side of the race war, causing Michael to leave empty-handed.Veronica finds Crab’s residence and runs into Crab’s mother, who tells her that Crab is dead.Back in her office, Veronica gets a call from Leticia Barris(Adina Porter), Crab Simmons’ ex-girlfriend.She meets with Leticia, who tells her that she believes that the same people who killed Crab are trying to kill Lincoln.Veronica thought that Crab had O.D.’d, but Leticia said that Crab had a bad heart and would never touch drugs.He conveniently died a week after Lincoln had killed Steadman.Hale and Kellerman had already questioned Tim about his visit to Veronica, and now they have witnessed her meeting with Leticia.Kellerman calls a mysterious woman, who instructs him to “do what you need to do to make this go away.”
During a prison riot, another inmate fatally stabs May Tag, but Michael is able to get the bolt away from him.T-Bag assumes that Michael had done the stabbing, and he vows revenge.Michael sharpens the point of the bolt to become an Allen wrench, which is the perfect size to fit into a bolt underneath a toilet(we later see in the coming attractions that behind the toilet is a tunnel, which I assume is the escape route.)
C-Note gives Michael back his PUGNAc, because he realizes that Michael wasn’t in cahoots with the Aryan Nation.Michael takes the medicine, and Sara later administers her test.She confirms that he does have diabetes, but she is a little confused as to why he is so happy about it(Michael has a horrible poker face.)
On the way out of the infirmary, Abruzzi and his thugs grab Michael and force him to give up the location of Fibonacci by putting one of his pinkie toes into the path of some pruning shears.He refuses, and the episode ends with one of the thugs cutting off the pinkie toe.The director of the Rush Hour movies, Brett Ratner, executive produces and directed the first hour of this show.Paul Scheuring, the writer of the 2003 Vin Diesel movie A Man Apart, created this series and wrote its first two episodes.They have constructed a show that is a little bit far-fetched, but interesting.The fact that Michael conveniently goes to the same prison as Lincoln, and that Sara is only mildly inquisitive to Michael’s diabetes problem is a little hard to believe.Also…when are they going to explain why Michael Scofield and Lincoln Burrows have two different last names? Are they half brothers?
The acting is great though.It’s amazing how alike Miller and Purcell look.Maybe it’s the buzz cuts, but I could actually believe that they were real brothers.Stormare always makes a great bad guy in movies, so he is giving us another good one on the small screen.Knepper plays a very creepy bad guy, and he is very effective at it too.The two love interests are good, but they don’t have a lot of time to establish their romances with their respective men yet.Callies is obviously going to fall f
or Miller, and I seriously doubt that Tunney will be seeing a wedding in the end with her fiancé.“Prison Break” reminds me of ABC’s “Lost,” in which I like the concept, but I can’t see it going beyond a season.“Lost” proved that it could provide an ongoing plotline that will last its inaugural season, so I’ll have to have faith that this one will do it as well.This show had so many questions yet unanswered in the first two episodes, and the durability of it might be one of those questions.Welcome to the fall season!

第三篇:英語書評
《少年維特的煩惱》是歌德年輕時所著的一部“小書”。它反映了青年歌德的生活經(jīng)歷,字里行間處處打下了他思想感情的烙印。它不只是一部個人的戀愛悲劇,它真正的價值在于表現(xiàn)了一個時代的煩惱、憧憬和苦惱。
歌德非常成功地運用第一人稱的書信體,讓主人公面對面地向讀者述說自己的遭遇和感受,展露自己的抱負與情懷。近百封長短書簡巧妙的構成一個整體,前后加上“編者”的引言和按語,中間穿插著注釋,把一些平淡無奇的事情講得真切感人,娓娓動聽。信中時而抒情,時而敘事,時而議論,讀著讀著,我們自己仿佛變成了收信者,聽到了主人公的言談笑語,啼泣悲嘆,窺見了他那時時柔弱地顫動著的敏感的心。《少年維特的煩惱》情節(jié)剪裁精當,內心刻畫細致入微且通篇充滿濃郁的詩意,可堪稱是一首凄婉的敘事詩。
真情實感,強烈的時代精神,高度的藝術性,三者結合在一起,賦予了《維特》以震撼人心的巨大力量。
這樣一部能道出時代心聲的巨著一問世,便當即風靡了德國和整個歐洲,更引發(fā)了一種被稱為“維特熱”的時代病。它深受廣大青年的喜愛,更感觸著許多非青年人的心。在德國和西歐長篇小說的發(fā)展史上,《少年維特的煩惱》堪稱一塊重要的里程碑。至于書中的主人公,那個青衣黃褲的翩翩少年維特,則已成為了世界文學中一個人盡皆知的不朽典型,即萊辛所說的那種“偉大而渺小,可愛而又可鄙的怪人”。
對于《少年維特的煩惱》這樣一部產(chǎn)生于兩百多年前的作品,至今,我們仍能感受得出它的魅力。
就我個人而言,在閱讀過程中,我深切的感受到了飽含在作品中真切的思想感情。它那種直白露骨的情感表現(xiàn),讓人置身于其中,和維特一起體驗著愛的煩惱。或許這樣一部戀愛悲劇讓讀者產(chǎn)生情感共鳴的同時,多少會帶來一些消極情緒。但它飽滿的時代精神卻讓處于21世紀像我們這樣的新一代讀者更多的體會到了歌德這位多情善感的作家的心曲。
文章以獨特的書信體形式進行鋪展,當心靈與此書交流的時刻,我們仿佛被吸引了進去,成了當中的一部分元素。
這是一本值得我們去讀的書,它能帶領我們穿越時空的界限,去領會不一樣時代情感戲,去感受書中主人公對于愛情的堅貞與堅持。

Jane eyre--for a water story of the girl called Jane, she have no dad didn't also not niang, have a poor family.But she believe: although I choose to not wealth, but I can choose life!She turned of study work, turned to finally have the property of the independent family and loved ones.The plot of the past all cuirenleixia, make the person is more strong.I start to understand the life of people suffering from the truth.I try to brave strong to make ends meet, just very hard very busy, also sometimes hard, but enrich the good.Jane friend Helen for popular disease will die, Jane she enjoyed a local guide without fear of the last one night life, their words of forthright, born from death in addition friendship deeply moved me, yes, Jane from foster care in cruel by Mrs.Reed house, Mrs.Reed due to jealousy and abused her, the people around him is bullying, she only Helen, they all the way through the ups and downs of common interest in the mouth, but god but again then brutally took Helen......And trouble Jane finally got back to the Mr.Rochester side, but he was blind and arthropods.Jane will use her's phrase silently looking at rochester autumn.In that moment, rochester feel Jane-his little goddess return, they hold to speak around the work happens, swear not eternal scattered, I was deeply moved by the, I know that the more difficult the surrounded the more let really like of the person more inscription muscle the screen bone!Two years ago, relentlessly to choose me.I means less than go to university, and to the cruel actual I gave in.My parents didn't ability to pay I then the most expensive GaoHuo, I can only destined when choice.Finally, I choose the normal, and here I spent my loneliest most memorable for a date, Jane eyre have compensated for the mouth taste not vanity, I feel I have already been Jane, have her, although I choose to not wealth, but I can choose to optimistic attitude.I try to cheer up, try to brave to shit in.In the study, I try your best to learn it well shit, also eager to present Hong up of other activities, along the way, there are flowers and applause have tears, I am learning coming up soon, Hong pieces in the essay contest, the winter, games I cross-country often awards.Me to rediscover themselves.Originally private are in every the ego and save every clip, in the situation and development.The life of people need the challenge of hardship, that that is a perfect life beautiful!Life is changeful, maybe it is like the wind that blows instantly gave people never had the generous.Maybe it such as hanging in the sky the rainbow, has created the most beautiful in the world monuments!She carry Jane eyre it to me more than these.I deeply understand: I should be strong and alive, turned to alive.Although the sky without my PingZong, but I flew over!Although I choose to not wealth, but I can choose life!If we were to talk about Spielberg’s film career as being clustered into periods, as we do with Picasso’s blue and pink periods, then we’d have to say Spielberg has entered his Capra phase with his new film The Terminal.Although The Terminal has a comedic brightness that recalls aspects of his last film Catch Me if You Can, Spielberg’s real attention here focuses on the story’s minimal plotline about an average Joe overcoming the bureaucratic roadblocks and power plays that cross his path.It’s an optimistic world-view that features a melting pot of American faces, most of whom want to do good if given the chance, and who like to embrace their folk heroes with group unity and gusto.The director who inadvertently invented the summer blockbuster with the release of Jaws in 1975 has now moved into a more populist phase of his career that tries to introduce democratic ideals and “significance” into his resolutely mainstream movies.It’s a worthy ambition, I suppose, but it does not take into account that our naivete is not nearly as unvarnished as it was in Frank Capra’s heyday of the early sound decades.It’s hard to sell anyone the Brooklyn Bridge anymore, so we’ll see how well Spielberg does with his multicultural, “We Are the World” version of JFK Airport.The story’s deus ex machina has Hanks’ Viktor Navorski stranded in the airport's International Transit Lounge due to a coup that occurred in his fictional Eastern European homeland of Krakozhia while en route.Left without a valid passport or a country he can return to, Viktor is ordered by the paper tiger customs bureaucrat Frank Dixon(Tucci)to wait out the situation.Hours turn into days, then months, as Viktor gradually makes a place for himself within the transitional world of the terminal.“Life is waiting,” reminds the movie’s promotional tagline.But what the movie(like John Lennon)is really trying to tell us is that “Life is what happens when you’re busy making other plans.”
第四篇:越獄影評
《越獄》影評
第一季——越獄;其實已經(jīng)勢成經(jīng)典了。文特沃斯·米勒(Wentworth Miller)飾演天賦異稟的工程師Michael Scofield設計了一場銀行劫案,并因此被捕入獄,僅僅只是為了救出身陷冤獄的哥哥,由多米尼克·珀塞爾(Dominic Purcell)飾演的Lincoln Burrows。因為信任,因為深信不疑,因為訴求無門,所以不得已而為之;因為自信,因為設計周全,因為天賦異稟,所以Michael選擇了這樣的一種極端的方式。
懸念密集又環(huán)環(huán)緊扣,情感上打出的兄弟情深牌又順理成章;政府黑幕,環(huán)境復雜,人物形象飽滿有力,情節(jié)發(fā)展緊湊,加上對權威的顛覆以及對弱勢的同情,給了這部劇集一個極好的溫床。在極有限的條件下,如何創(chuàng)造一種屬于自己的優(yōu)勢,并且最終主導形勢,這就制造出一個極有吸引力的賣點。
如何越獄,是否能最終越獄成功,是這一季的最大賣點;如何攻克每一個難關,如何越過眼前的每一個細節(jié)帶給的巨大阻力,這又是每一集留給我們的期待。第一季《越獄》,勢成經(jīng)典,是有它的道理在里面的。
第二季——逃亡;計劃內的發(fā)展,它被關注其實也是順理成章。
或者說,從劇集一開始,編劇們其實已經(jīng)設計了這一季的主要劇情了;畢竟,從監(jiān)獄里逃脫出來,不過只是第一步,可以逃脫,就意味著可能被重新抓回去,那么一季《越獄》只是一場徒勞的虛妄;如何逃出來,在第一季里完成;如何進一步逃亡,如何把自己身上的污
點洗凈,如何最終把自己變?yōu)楹戏ü瘢退阕詈笾荒芴拥搅硪粋€國度,可是有了足夠多的資金以及一個自由的身份,那才是最后的救贖。
更大的政府力量的介入,更多的人被牽扯進來,更多的懸念終被揭開??當劇集的最后,Michael和Lincoln帶著巨額的美金和自己深愛的人逃到了巴拿馬,劇集就已經(jīng)可以結束了。至少,在這一刻里,我們的審美還不至于疲勞;并且,我們的耐性也都還有;而最終,我們得到了一個滿意的結局,劇中人也都得到了圓滿的發(fā)展。
美劇在這方面似乎多少有點不可理喻。當一部劇集的收視率到達了一定程度的時候,這部劇集就不會結束。于是劇集的最后,是一個突如其來的大逆轉,本來已經(jīng)逃出生天,并且已經(jīng)完全計劃發(fā)展的情節(jié)被突如其來的變故扭曲,應該出現(xiàn)的結局因為收視率的高昂而沒有出現(xiàn)。Michael被捕入獄;這樣的結束意味著遠在美國的勞資雙方已經(jīng)簽訂了下一季的合約,新的劇本正在籌備——當所有人都在為此而歡騰不已的時候,我多少有點失望,因為我知道,審美疲勞終于會不可避免地出現(xiàn);而沒有辦法急流涌退在光環(huán)里謝幕,最后將只能在落寞的黯淡里告別。
第三季——再度越獄;我想,關注這一季的人們,也許只有些本土的鐵桿粉絲以及中國的觀眾了。
至少這部劇到我這里,不再如當初前兩季那么狂熱了,而僅僅只是因為看了開頭,而無奈地看下去,捎帶著打發(fā)閑暇的時光。一個更加混亂無序,更加骯臟污穢不堪的牢獄;救人者鋃鐺入獄,被救者卻在鐵窗之外另想他法。孔武有力的Lincoln如何把智謀深遠的Michael救出來,這時候的賣點遠不如第一季來得誘人。
于是主末倒置,Michael依舊成為主角,依舊謀劃全局;Lincoln如一員猛將,被指揮著前行,按步就班地完成統(tǒng)帥的所有意旨。可以說,Lincoln有的只是將才,而Michael則是帥才;這也許,也是文特沃斯·米勒被國人稱為“米帥”的原因所在吧。
我不太記得這一季在美國的收視,在中國——它依舊掀起收視狂潮。不過在我,它僅僅只是一個成功商品的延續(xù)發(fā)展罷了。如果這部《越獄》在第二季結束,它將被我看作為一部經(jīng)典;而來到了第三季,不過只是其經(jīng)典之外的剩余價值的最后剝取罷了。
第四季——新逃亡計劃以及新紀元的來臨;到這里,這部劇集已經(jīng)到了其強弩之末的最后掙扎。
如何逃亡,如何重生,這一季所講的其實還是第二季要講的故事,只是加入了一些新元素——Scylla。如何獲得最后的清白,劇中人所能指望的不再是逃出美國本土,而是那些有力量操控全局的力量把他們的檔案洗凈而最終免罪。隨著劇情的展開,從Company盜取Scylla,到被Company威脅要幫他們尋回Scylla,到Company內部力量的分化而進一步復雜化,最后不得不讓聯(lián)合國出面,讓這部劇集最后草草收局。
劇情被一再地分化,然后復雜化;這是一部劇集最無可奈何地拖沓。冗長得看不到結尾,因為收視或者其它原因,它不得不尋找一些理由把劇情往下拖——當一部劇集走到了這一步的時候,這部劇集其實已經(jīng)注定了衰亡。有些國內的網(wǎng)站發(fā)布資料說:《越獄》的結局篇
在美國本土再掀收視狂潮;對此我持懷疑態(tài)度,因為我不知道它的消息來源。早在《越獄》第四季播出之時,朋友在美國的影視網(wǎng)站上瀏覽時總跟我說,這部劇集在美國本土早已經(jīng)淪陷,收視一片慘淡。
也許,收視率上漲是有可能的,畢竟曾經(jīng)很多人都在關注這部劇集,而結局——也許能把許多已經(jīng)逃離的觀眾召回。可是說到“狂潮”,其可信程度實在很低;我想也許更像是一種中國式的思維模式,在想當然地由此及彼地自我意淫里妄圖的假想。
四年《越獄》;這部劇集的結束,對我來說更像是一種解脫。2005年開播,我在2006年開始看這部劇集;然后跟了它兩年。2007-2008;第三季對我而言已如雞肋;2008-2009的第四季,我似乎看得相當勉強。只是因為開始了觀望的歷程,而習慣性地想結束。第三季開始,經(jīng)典已經(jīng)死去;第四季開始,這部劇集已經(jīng)淪為一部為了拍攝而拍攝的劇集了。
有許多人在感嘆——《越獄》結局,以后有何美劇可看。發(fā)如此感言的人們,不過只是中國鐵桿粉絲的最后意淫而已。在我看來,《越獄》前二季的水平也許可勉強地稱為“不容置疑”,而后二季,已經(jīng)在挑戰(zhàn)視覺疲勞和審美疲勞的終極底限了。Michael Scofield終于在結局里躺進了墳墓,我想,這樣的一個結局給了我一個訊號——不管是編劇或者制作方,都已經(jīng)被這種視覺疲勞和審美疲勞折磨得疲憊不堪了,以至于最后連一點后路都不留地徹底結束這部劇集。當一個靈魂人物地最終離逝出現(xiàn)在一部劇集的最后結局里,這意味著這部劇集不再會有續(xù)集,也意味著它永遠地將
定格在這個畫面里。
美劇,很少把結局做得如此徹底和決斷。所以,第四季的最后一集,Michael Scofield的兒子那個頗有點意味深長的特寫,多少給這種決斷留下了最后的一扇后門;不過其可發(fā)展的程度已經(jīng)不言而喻地過早夭折了。
相對于那些鐵桿桿們最后的感嘆,我相對而言,我更可能會有的感嘆是——強弩之末的《越獄》已做完了它的最后掙扎,若不結束,還待如何。
當它已經(jīng)離經(jīng)典遠去,當它的收視已經(jīng)下跌得不成模樣,當它最后的懸念都已經(jīng)被破解,當它最后的一線生路都已經(jīng)被其創(chuàng)作者封殺??投資方不可能會再進一步投進資金,制作方也已經(jīng)宣告塵埃落定的最后結局,一切已經(jīng)沒有任何可想像的空間了。
另辟蹊徑,所以它曾為經(jīng)典;強弩之末,所以它穿不透魯縞。所謂經(jīng)典;其實已經(jīng)在黯淡的商業(yè)運作里死去了。

第一集故事梗概:
Michael Scofield的哥哥Lincoln Burrows被陷害謀殺副總統(tǒng)的哥哥而入獄,并即將被處死。Michael Scofield計劃通過搶劫銀行而進入哥哥的監(jiān)獄再去實行越獄。在完成紋身后,Scofield去搶劫銀行,并配合的被捕、被起訴,直至被送到弟弟所在的芝加哥Fox River監(jiān)獄。入獄后Scofield首先認識了和善的獄友Fernando Sucre,在Sucre的介紹下,Scofield認識了獄中的各種在自己的越獄計劃中有作用犯人,包括昔日屠宰場的老大John Abruzzi和可以搞到很多生活物品的“C-Note”。與此同時,在華盛頓的主教試圖按照Lincoln的意愿推遲死刑的執(zhí)行,為了不讓陰謀敗露,探員Kellerman謀殺了主教,這另Lincoln的律師Veronica Donovan相信自己昔日的戀人Lincoln確系被陷害。地方長官Frank Tancredi的女兒Sara Tancredi在監(jiān)獄做獄醫(yī),為接觸Tancredi,Scofield謊稱自己有糖尿病,每天來監(jiān)獄醫(yī)務室接受胰島素注射,同時又找C-Note獲取對抗胰島素的藥物。Scofield利用Abruzzi急于得知某關鍵證人下落,成功的進入Abruzzi掌控的監(jiān)獄工廠,得以接觸到同在監(jiān)獄工廠工作的哥哥Lincoln。Michael告訴哥哥自己掌握這個監(jiān)獄建筑設計,并展示了紋在身上的監(jiān)獄設計藍圖。
主題分析:
《越獄》的主題和《肖申克的救贖》一樣主題是救贖。在沒有任何希望和自由的情況下,人應該怎么辦?就在于救贖。把沒有任何罪的哥哥和自己解救出去,獲得原本就屬于自己的自由。沒有人可以剝奪他人正當?shù)淖杂蓹嗬磺切﹣碜躁幇得娴暮诎祫萘Γ@就是一種信念,麥克在身紋上了地圖,故意犯罪進入監(jiān)獄去設法解救哥哥。為了公正和自由不惜一切代價,1個月的期限要到了,監(jiān)獄里幫派斗爭復雜,自己的腳趾被剪斷了,但是他一點也沒有放棄。自由和公正,哥哥的性命沒有比這些更重要的了,忍辱負重受盡折磨,只為了一個目標--自由。救贖成為了一種生命的歷練,生命的升華。
人物形象分析:
麥克是一個受過良好教育的白領建筑設計師,收入豐厚并且住著高級公寓。他刺了文身故意去強銀行,一心就是想要蹲進監(jiān)獄。在朝天開了幾槍之后,邁克爾束手就擒,并在法庭上完全放棄了辯護。他只對法官提出一個要求,就是讓他和哥哥林肯關到了同一個地方——狐貍河監(jiān)獄。他的哥哥林在一個月后就要被處死,罪名是謀殺副總統(tǒng)的弟弟。但事實卻不是他所殺,所以發(fā)麥克要在30天內救林肯出獄。表明了麥克是一個十分重視兄弟情感和堅守真理的人。
麥克有是十分的機智的,利用典獄長十分喜歡做建筑模型的愛好去接近他,然后不斷的討好典獄長,試圖依靠典獄長的權勢來為自己成功越獄提供保障。投其所好是最容易接近目標的方法,而克制獄警阻撓的最佳手段也是依靠更大權利的人。麥克在處理監(jiān)獄中幫派問題也是恰到好處,一開始幫派的領導者對新來的麥克都十分討厭,甚至故意傷害麥克,但是麥克知道要越獄不得不依靠他們的力量,所以不計前嫌的不計較一切,協(xié)調好了個方關系。讓各方都為他的計劃出手援助共同謀劃。對于獄警的內奸,也是表面上不漏聲色,心里做好了充分的準備使破話計劃的人一次又一次的失敗。麥克子還沒有進監(jiān)獄之前就在監(jiān)獄的工程項目中動了手腳,而在進監(jiān)獄后更是收集各種機會想辦法弄到越獄的工具,比如挖墻的鏟子,配置腐蝕廣管道的溶液等。
特寫鏡頭:
特寫鏡頭兼顧了,敘事寫意2種只能。它是突出細節(jié)描寫的藝術。無聲地展現(xiàn)了重要的、本質的事物。它通過表現(xiàn)細節(jié)和過程,在視覺上起到一種強調突出作用。
在影片中大量的出現(xiàn)特寫的鏡頭,并且富含著意義。特寫紙折的小鴨子一本雜志,都被被仍進下水道中去,其實是在想歪傳遞一些正真罪煩的信息。
特寫的應藏在書中的錘子等工具和翻開水池的動作,是說明了他已經(jīng)準備好了工具鑿穿監(jiān)獄的墻壁越獄的動機。
一次在工廠中偷走一瓶溶液時溶液瓶的特寫和化學方程式的特寫,又蘊含著他想要通過腐蝕的方法去破話監(jiān)獄的阻礙物去越獄的動機。
在監(jiān)獄里,他藏了一部手機在一堵墻壁了,手機的特寫,說名了他是故意的把肥皂做的假手機放在這里,目的是為了引出內奸來,辨明忠奸知道那些可以成為朋友,那些不能交朋友,方便以后越獄。
審美期待:
如果一個包袱很早很簡單就都出來了就沒人喜歡看了。怎么樣使得影片更加好看?那就必須使片子具有較強的審美期待感。審美期待不應該立刻被滿足,而需被延遲。我們通常所說的懸念,就是對期待滿足的延遲。
越獄中,還有一個月哥哥就要死刑了,事情是非常的迫在眉睫的。解救無罪的哥哥必須要有快有好。但是影片卻沒有很快的使哥哥被馬克救出,麥克也沒有即可挖通隧道救出哥哥。一切計劃,都在循序漸進的進行著,每時每刻都要經(jīng)受來自個方面的挑戰(zhàn),室友的忠誠度,獄警的監(jiān)視程度,工具的尋找,有時,想方設法,找律師證明哥哥無罪,和拖延哥哥死刑的期限也是一種緩兵之計。之間會遇到各種各樣的矛盾的困擾,越獄的進程是曲折的,前途是光明的。日積月累,墻面被逐漸挖開。
為什么要把雜志和紙做的的鴨子放進下水道? 筆記本中藏著的小型工具是干什么的?
紙上的一些斷斷續(xù)續(xù)的化學符號能組成什么合成物?
影片沒有馬上告訴你答案,而是隔了很長的一段后才慢慢提供一些暗示,和揭曉謎底,最后產(chǎn)生前后照應和一種驚奇感。
隨著情節(jié)的推動和事態(tài)的進展,越獄的計劃在萬分艱難中慢慢的進展著,審美期待也在曲折中一步一步被滿足。
