The main character is Dr. Max Holst, a successful neurosurgeon. One day an intense little man named Steinmetz shows up, who has the real ability to create objects out of thin air, using only his mind. As no one believes him at first, he is held at a ward for mental patients, but manifests the key to his door and escapes. As he has a special interest in Dr. Holst, Steinmetz subsequently invites Holst to his large mansion, which is full of expensive paintings and sculptures, and proves to him that he can in fact materialise objects. Steinmetz’s abilities are evolving by leaps and bounds, and is progressing from being able to create objects only to being able to create living things. His ultimate ambition is to be able to create a human being. He tells Dr. Holst that if he will only perform a certain brain operation on him, Steinmetz will become able to attain his goal. He’s got all the necessary equipment set up in his basement. Dr. Holst, however, is too spooked by the whole thing to agree to this mad scheme, and refuses. Steinmetz then sets about manipulating Holst’s life, to pressure him into performing the operation. By then Steinmetz has become able to create a temporary human being, and in the hope that he can perhaps make his own creation perform the operation, he manifests a doppelganger of Dr. Holst. This double proceeds to take over Dr. Holst’s life, creating chaos for him professionally and personally. And then Dr. Holst starts fighting back. The ending has the dual virtue of being both unexpected and satisfying.
弗兰克的电影可以当笑话看！话说这电影应该挺省钱的吧，就两三个场景、两三个人物来回轮转，真正的极简主义啊.
真正的躺平。从才开始还编造护照忘了的借口，到后面什么都不想解释，但为了完成基础生存和社交关系只能勉强签下字。家人、巨额财产、国籍，什么不都想，至于异国艳遇，不主动不负责不拒绝。导演可能也想通过零配乐，来告诉观众躺平拍摄是一众什么体验。
反正一个突然主流的结尾就差点意思
this is fun! few movies not winking at the audience.
3星，小场景爽片，没啥剧情，没啥深意，人物一会蹦出来一个，轮番干。
まるで僕らはエイリアンズ，
......确实看了个寂寞........但是这片子也不差就是.感觉不过瘾....更没看一样，...感觉就看了个开头就结束了....也没有悬疑....只是用了蒙太奇的手法.....阿根廷人果然还是适合踢球吧
“天谴”般的报复，呃，不过，能做到这么夸张吗？
威尼斯主竞赛第九场，如果我事先做了功课知道这是《新秩序》导演的新片我肯定会弃了这片
警察局，警察们，女主（警察），骗子，雇佣杀手，叛徒（警察），疯子杀手。
威尼斯主竞赛第九场，如果我事先做了功课知道这是《新秩序》导演的新片我肯定会弃了这片。整体观感比《新秩序》好点但我还是受不了这令人无语的反转，导演真的是太喜欢故弄玄虚自作聪明了。最恐怖的是我发现还有一部主竞赛的制片也是他。OMG！这就是威尼斯嫡系吗？
一个身为曾被称作日不落帝国的男人的日落人生。有符号堆砌，比如猪，衣服，甚至某些人物本身。有莫名其妙的调度，比如步行与空镜。还有一些弗兰克一贯不高明的叙事技巧，比如隐瞒内情，比如突然暴力。这些枪击抢劫的暴力，又可以看做是阶级话题的残片，但如果拿前作《新秩序》来比的话，这部完全不是墨西哥主题电影，而是描写范围更广的，关于资本主义秩序下某个代表性个体淡然的溃逃。蒂姆·罗斯无疑是资本主义缩影，断然要剥离一整个社会关系，包括新情人，而很可能的原因就是癌症。患上癌症的资本主义本身就在暗示经济危机，所以这是一部彻头彻尾的资本主义批判电影——用存在主义和虚无主义做影像的合法性依据——非再如以前那样立足墨西哥一国的社会问题。但弗兰克若想将这种批判执行地更生动彻底，还是要多学学布努埃尔和奥尔特曼。
以上理解不知道对不对 🤣
厌女烂片，无论是从故事情节角度看，还是从对女性的恶意角度看，都令人作呕。
2.5 一开始以为是加缪异乡人式灵魂深处置身事外的存在主义设定，没想到解谜成癌症病人逃避一切，真是十级降到二级。不过米歇尔·弗兰克对场景的控制能力尚可。
竟然看到takumi的船戏… 明明还是个孩子样哈哈哈哈哈哈救命
实在是难看到家了，首先故事没有波澜，叙事一段一段，其次男主的面瘫演技，直到浴衣床戏，或许才达到了他个人演技的巅峰。
看简介以为是中年男的中年危机片，看了之后果然是中年男的中年危机片——我最讨厌的genre。看了一半达到了我的中年白男阈值。
完全看不出和《新秩序》是同一导演。没有看到那些所谓“勾引观众”的“反转”都在何处，从两种声音开始进入(自然的白噪音对立的是机械
对于我这样的一个非专业观影人士，我能给予的评价就是还不错，不大一样的叙事方式。墨西哥海边美景赏心悦目，男主看似扑克脸的表演挺让我觉得扑朔迷离的。
