前面無雷,可能有人看到標題就先噓了。不過我認為「月老」確實是九把刀又一次出色的嘗試。
以一個平凡觀眾的角度來說說我的看法:
先解釋標題,現在打開Netflix,基本上前十名榜單上至少五項都是韓劇。這代表台灣人確實喜歡韓劇的敘事風格,90年代初興起的韓劇,常常被人戲謔灑狗血、俗套,然而近年韓劇、韓影在愛情的基礎上,加入了許多元素。
前些日子在全世界爆紅的魷魚遊戲,更是讓許多人議論紛紛,發現韓劇已經從婆婆媽媽飯後的八大電視台,進軍世界攻城掠地,而同期的斯卡羅表現差勁,虎頭蛇尾,更早一點的罪夢者,甚至直接毀了後續串流平台的對台投資計畫。
近年最讓我驚豔的台灣電影是「目擊者」,擺脫了同志、校園愛情、敘事破碎、無病呻吟的題材,成為類型電影近年的佳作。
而九把刀的月老,宣傳台詞是「愛情奇幻」,進了電影院後,驚喜的發現還融合了驚悚、喜劇元素,敘事與剪接在某些部分雖然零碎,但優異的設定與特效仍然具備娛樂效果,絕對是可以賣出海外播映權的商業作品。
台劇近期砸大錢的斯卡羅,架構鬆散,劇本很爛,讓很多一開始大加吹捧的人,在第三、四集後噤了聲。票房表現優異的「當男人戀愛時」,演繹了偏執又自戀的流氓自慰故事,充其量是加長成一個多小時的茄子蛋MV。
跟上面兩部比起來,「月老」在劇本架構與娛樂效果上都是第一梯隊。所以我才會下這樣的標題。看劇看電影不就是追求娛樂與刺激嗎?這就是屠殺台灣Netflix排行榜韓劇的最大共通點啊。且很多人會覺得有與神同行的影子,但這部劇比與神同行出色的地方,是懷舊元素、閩粵地區民俗宗教觀的符碼置入,相比與神同行又在地了不少。這部電影的優秀點在於,即使不完美,但完整的說了一個富娛樂性的故事。
無雷簡評:
有鑑於這部電影對死後世界描繪的出色,以及東方月老元素的編織,以及基礎因果觀的劇情牽繫,是一部值得進入影院的爆米花電影。愛寵物的人必看;相信因果輪迴的人必看;喜歡九把刀低俗、無俚頭搞笑風格的人必看;想進電影院無壓力笑一笑、哭一哭的人必看。
缺點就是某些台詞寫得不好很尷尬,然後「愛情」一樣是九把刀那種自戀式的幼稚存在。
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~以下有心得雷~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
這部電影有九把刀自承的,對自己死去愛狗的思念,所以用阿魯作為推動關鍵情節的角色,原作中月老本人、西方邱比特眾的劇情也都被刪掉,這樣改編讓劇情與視覺表現更加自然。且寵物角色的加入,也減少了一些台灣電影尷尬的台詞,以及復仇故事線的凶惡。
但新加入的冤親債主報仇線,就讓本來喜劇、深情的主題斷裂,導致許多人說的情緒中斷。而某些情節的切入、轉場,也能看到九把刀小說那種先射箭再畫靶的生硬感。這都是九把刀執導的電影會有的問題,從「那些年」、「報告老師怪物」就可以看出來了。
不過這仍然無損我對這部電影的愛,因為其建設的死後世界,是富有台灣民俗特色,然而又可愛的。(例:金童玉女、黑令旗、佛珠、月老紅線。),相同題材的與神同行,則更多是對陰間善惡懲罰的刻劃。然而還是要提醒一下,「與神同行」在電影開頭就很明顯的揭露了,這些地獄場景都是參考地藏經。
「月老」的世界就比較像公務機關,使用很老的電腦與光碟機,使用的器物都是展延再展延的登記在案財產,搞不好電腦系統還是WindowsXP,有個廢廢不管事,上班都在摸魚的上司,兩個事務官、秘書辛勤的維持體制運作,卻因為其鐵面無私而被底下員工討厭。而因為人力不足而新招聘進來的約聘人員如果不想被fire,就要做事情賺績效,以提升到更好的境界,拿到更好的待遇。
從某些情節刻劃的保留,以及刪除了原作中其他引人入勝的故事線,可以感覺到這部片可能有拍攝續集的野心。小咪與阿綸感情線是幼稚的純愛;阿魯的演出會逼出許多愛狗人士的眼淚;Pinky的部分則因為時間不夠,想塞的東西太多,所以變得有點工具化。柯震東又再次展現了他對這類型角色的純熟掌握度。某些好久不見的演員則恰如其分的點綴配角。
九把刀確實是愛狗之人,在結尾的演員表上,狗與人只差了一顆珠子,能投胎當貓更是最大的福報。在場景的建構上,我看到了如星際效應黑洞視界的「彼岸」、港片「大隻佬」中轉世與善惡果報的借鑑、九把刀系列電影獨特的惡趣味。這些元素構成了一幅色彩鮮豔的漫畫彩頁。所以我不認為這部電影是該擺在博物館小心珍藏,讓品鑑家孤芳自賞的藝術品;也不是某些藝術創作者自溺的枯寂創作;這是一本掉落在街頭的港漫,色彩鮮豔,線條與構圖大膽放浪。
不要計較劇情,大多數排行榜上的漫畫都不是鬥智、高知識純度的類型。能娛樂、刺激到最多觀眾才是商業電影的最大公約數。
以上都是台灣劇集有野心想達到,但欠缺的能力。
簡單粗淺心得,噓或推都虛心接受!
