Thematically? A satire of television corporate media in general, in particular profit-over-morals, media circus, media desensitization and dehumanization.

>>17911 reading the letterboxd reviews made me think it was the greatest thing since sliced bread, i felt insane
somebody quoted a line from the movie and it was the goofiest shit imaginable. something out of cartoon. but they wrote up so much fluff on how great the movie is.
sometimes i feel like people just keep this long prank going on where they praise a thing because others are praising it too just to keep some random semblance of status quo going on
do you remember anything else about watching it in theatres? it's been a long while since i've been in one
recount anything if you can

2001 like most of Kubrick's work is overrated garbage
Some of my favorites:
> Solaris / (Mirror, Stalker) > Vertigo/ (Rear View, Psycho) > Salo, or 120 Days of Sodom > Akira >>16477 Network is garbage and the director is a Proudhonist
and an actual Zionist - his Marxist hateboner is apparent too.

>>17964 well yes that irony is a part of it, but frankly it' a bit hard to explain Russian prison life, myself being aware of it only through people I knew who were there. It's similar to people tattooing religious figures and other stuff on themselves in prison there, there is a double meaning within the criminal world, that only criminals really know, like the origins of their nicknames and such.

Anyone seen picrel? It has some pretty good reviews.
It's a chinese movie about communist spies that received training in the Soviet Union doing a job over at the puppet state of Manchuko.
Trailer:

I've watched it, and it's a very good spy movie. At the beginning, we see one of the communists spilling out details about the operation to avoid being shot, but our four protagonists don't know about it. The operation is kaput from the start, which makes sure the movie is always tense. All of the spies are smart, making moves to withhold/extract information from others. This feels exactly like what a spy movie should feel.
Unfortunately, I can't say I enjoyed the movie to it's fullest. There were moments where I couldn't absorb new information fast enough. All the characters wear the same clothes, which did not make things easier, plus I find remembering their names quite hard. A character/event flowchart would be a welcome companion while watching it.
From what I've been able to research, this is actually a prequel to the 2012 tv show "悬崖" (Cliff) by the same writer, Quan Yongxian. In an interview (
https://inf.news/entertainment/bd5332246260958e06dc8ead644ec3da.html ), he said that in 2015 he had written the script for this prequel as a 60-episode show.
If this had been a tv show – or even a book –, where things could flow in a more friendly pace, this would've been a absolute must watch. Overall, it is a very good movie, and I recommend anyone interested to watch it, even though you'll scratch your head sometimes and may wish to rewind a bit to understand what is happening (though I didn't, and was still able to enjoy it very much).
