A quick glimpse at the cast for this film would make any horror fan giddy with glee. The actual movie doesn't live up to those high expectations, but it's far from being all bad. Desi Arnaz Jr. (!) plays an author who makes a crazy $20,000 bet with his publisher that he could write a great novel in only 24 hours. To do so, the publisher gives him the keys to an old abandoned house where he won't be disturbed. Not true. Once he gets there he is interrupted by a multitude of guests including a family which consists of John Carradine, Sheila Keith, Peter Cushing and Vincent Price. They are gathered there in a twisted family reunion to release their brother from the room he's been imprisoned in for forty years. Even Christopher Lee drops by as Corrigan, the man who has just purchased the house. Soon, they realize that the caged brother is loose and out for revenge.
What a great plotline and what a dream cast! This movie should have been a hell of a lot better. It's hard to pinpoint the exact problems with the film, but I would venture to say that the lack of lighting was a major fault. Sure the house has no electricity but I think they took the title of the movie a little too literally. Scenes after scenes are barely visible and the actors' faces are undecipherable. Only the moments in the main dinning hall are well lit. Also, the great actors are given very little to do. Cushing gets a few chuckles as the scared brother but Price, Lee and especially Carradine are somewhat wasted here. Well, at least Price gets the best line of the film: `Please don't interrupt me while I am soliloquizing.' And on the plus side, the story has enough twists and turns throughout to keep one`s interest and the ending, while a bit of a cop-out, manages to surprise.
作为路人粉觉得无功无过，作为音乐电影应该在镜头、艺术设计上多加功夫，电影明显更像一部舞台剧，倒是加菲的表演提升了一个档次。
那些还留在这个行业、为了梦想默默奋斗的创作者们，为自己唱一首生日歌吧。
又丧又燃
原剧完成度算不上高，所以之前觉得电影改编的唯一出路是传记化，果然如此，但这就成了一个套娃：在剧里写Superbia，在电影里写/演TTB，LMM把后面两层拍扁了些但是又必须留着，甚至还借用了最早的独幕剧模式，不知道普通观众观感如何，也许依然会觉得乱？但这片子太深情了，一直哭一直哭，没法用普通观众视角对待。桑爷-Larson-LMM的传承，浸满对剧场的爱。改编是同人写法，尽力把观众想要的东西都找地方安放。非常喜欢LMM把Larson删掉的Boho days拿回来，一秒还魂Rent，绿绿裙的处理也非常合理，最后片尾还贴心地还回来。Sunday生怕普通观众看不明白给了一段前序交待，把Susan和Dot写成了对照的情感线，BP女神出现的时候真是哇哇哭。桑爷亲自的录音也感人非凡。lots of lov
最遗憾的是没有看到RENT吧必须说至今还是最爱ICU。
bravo！21年年度十佳影片！影片展现出一个完全不同的加菲，通过双重视角，台上音乐剧式的内心独白和台下舞台剧式的人物发展，演化出一种独特但精准的视觉语言，拉森原作的配乐更是加分。90年代特有的对同性恋和艾滋的病态政治凝视在当今视角下看来更加讽刺。第三幕的钢琴独唱极为感人，相信一定是颁奖季的大热门！
去吧，去过一个被爱被梦想去驱动的人生吧，这很老掉牙，但总比躺平棒！听到了吗，人生的倒计时一刻不停……
【3.0】观影最大的障碍在于，这个传记片主人公的心路历程和生平事迹于我而言毫无吸引力，所以LMM给再多花哨的歌舞剧表演形式也是白费力气。
由於JGL久未有新作 我宣布加菲暫列我心中談the cutest thing第一名 電影真的乏善可陳 一開始好多cg過於明顯 劇本太基本太安全了 總而言之加菲是最好的（。）
挺好的，但就不时插入的舞台剧好令人出戏，特别是男女主角吵架的时候插的那段，男主角和女演员的那个表演特别滑稽，使得吵架都失去了戏剧张力。另外看到有人说歌比拉拉蓝好听是认真的吗。
This is the real life
非常无趣，只剩导演的一腔热情。加菲演技有点过誉，他适合演自带圣光的角色，某些时刻很动人，但没有辨识度，和其他形象没什么区别(如《血战钢锯岭》)。歌不好听，因为Larson的那首Come to Your Senses勉强给及格分吧。
一部关于天才音乐剧剧作家的传记电影……30岁时也曾有这样的倒计时焦虑，30岁之后就平静了……希望每个人的倒数时刻都是新的开始而不是梦想追逐的结束
6/10。看开头就知道是我不会喜欢的音乐剧片了，而且这类电影在豆瓣都是高分好神奇。喜欢同年的《身在高地》，俗人只爱看五彩斑斓的唱跳。有一场女生唱段给我口型对不上的感觉。电影与音乐剧的结合，弊大于利。
一个美好的人生，也许有点悲惨，但确是美好的，过自己想过的人生。
唱给女友的那段击中了泪点，推荐给了做音乐编剧和音乐人朋友，身边也不乏这样有趣又有才华的灵魂，都值得好好珍惜，现实世界里因为这些看似不太现实的人的存在才会丰富和精彩。

关于音乐剧的音乐剧，优秀的地方大多数来自传记原本的天妒英才，整个故事因为音乐剧的感觉非常零碎，角色基本靠加菲尔德单人凯瑞（毕竟是传记），3星多一丢丢到不了4，更喜欢LA La Land
天才、纽约、梦想、年龄、资金、爱情、（同性、艾滋……是些看起来都老套得不行的关键词。可当电影用音乐剧的形式去讲述一个音乐剧作家时，这一切都变得好看起来。音乐真好！（加菲好帅哦～
