The subtitle of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet’s first feature, from 1965, “Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns,” suggests the fierce political program evoked by their rigorous aesthetic. The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich; his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.
香港老戏骨的尽力之作。
ps.对于很少看港片的朋友真的由衷建议看港片一定要看原声版，国语配音真的很影响效果
故事简单，漏洞多。多两星都给廖叔，这样的演技，唉，看不到了
剧情单薄，但最后方中信的那段补充发言，正正为法律的信仰而发声。既然游戏规则要存在，我们就要做最懂游戏规则的人，并避免规则被不公正利用。（最近两个月看胖球比赛看到有点累，今日又身体状态不太好，换换电影看）
看完感觉蛮复杂的心情，提到鸡蛋跟高墙的对立，结果打败高墙的是团伙的内讧，以及用伪造证据的手法。程序非正义的正义是不是正义？
方中信谭耀文廖叔鲍姐曾江陈保元个个好戏 // “我地系辩护律师，唔系福尔摩斯”
故事套路，转折过于轻易，雷律师的小惊喜是为数不多的亮点。
垃圾玩意，一星给智叔，弹幕说兰博基尼的那个傻逼你出门小心被车撞死，老子第一个给你烧纸！
谭耀文还不错。
方中信还是一样棒👍🏻一部靠演技撑起来的电影，让原本略显粗糙的剧本，变幻出了紧凑的节奏。老戏骨们看着就是舒心。
廖启智的遗作，可惜了最终仍以钱权揭示真相的荒诞。看前一半的时候，有一种古早港片的味道，直到最后方中信聆讯时强行拔高立意的发言简直太当今太2021了。
一定不要看国语版的 那个观影体验直接能给你拉到底
非常非常非常中规中矩的电影，没有反转，没有惊喜，没有意外，就是讲完了
这个世界，因为正义，才有温度。
而且再感慨一句，香港的演艺圈断层真的很厉害，全靠老戏骨在撑。
完成度不错的港片了，香港电影里却是一直在讨论现实和公理的问题，不过如今很多港片已经都在描绘精英，而少了以前的草根和市井了…
男二律师演的太水了吧，是带资进组吗？故事 演技 节奏不行，电影都不如电视剧，不如TVB 不如傲骨贤妻里的一集内容。
总结剧情：用资本打败资本
完全支撑不起他站出来作证的原因
完全是看演技来了。
