James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
7.5/10.
明明是《黑道家族》前傳，竟然花這麼長時間談BLM。
拍成白开水，不如交给宁浩拍拍看。饼啊你真是开司体质。
舉重若輕的一天。能原諒自己的人早就原諒了所有人，沒有忘記愛人的人也只需要一個藉口。
無聊時還是可以一看,劇情要稍微想一下才能理清
总是习惯仰望那些英雄式的个性与张扬，即便知道最后他们躲不过阴暗角落里飞来的刺刀。
剧情3星， 没啥不好的没啥好的，一开始的慢节奏让人有后续大反转的错觉，导致看完结尾有种“啊 原来只是这样”的感觉。多的一星献给风间！！ 风间一带眼镜不得了！！ 气质这块拿捏死了啊
比较无聊啊，拍的故事非常慢节奏。原著好在哪看不出来。藤原龙也的表演也越来越水了，就是吼和张狂的表情……
有点意思，但也就仅此而已了，深究就有点经不起推敲了。
故事一般，比较老套，画面色调和构图很美，截了好多图做桌面。那个年代的美国有很多精致的设计。
鸠对应万元假钞，结尾虽有串联，也无法给人舒爽感。
剪辑超级无敌巨tm乱，镜头碎得一批。
剧情还不错，不过没有看过电视剧可能对人物有点陌生，在剧情理解上会有些困惑。拍摄手法很像小型网络剧，也确实很像是HBO电视剧的前传。总的来说还是很不错的，可以看看尝试一下。
我们需要一部讲女性冒险题材的电影，ok，just do it
哇！我就喜欢这种闭环故事！有点想看原版小说了！
看宣傳真的是很有質感的松竹出品，但是成片效果並不好。結尾目的略無言，在很多激情頃刻都被打斷，也許是支線過多整個顯得細碎，私以為原著的可讀性應該沒有電影表現得好，但現在覺得應該原著更精彩⋯
有点莫名其妙？虽然串起来了但是并无用
电影的片长还是有点受限制，让整部片子偏流水账，比较平，高潮铺垫显然不够，高潮也不算太高潮。
黑道其实远比正常人可怜，虚张声势的就更显得猥琐起来了
