Fraught with over obvious symbolism, Hartley's early feature is nonetheless a joy to watch. Hal here shows us his uncanny ability to cast his characters perfectly came early in his career.
Adrienne Shelley is a near perfect foil to herself, equal parts annoying teen burgeoning in her sexuality (though using sex for several years); obsessed with doom and inspired by idealism gone wrong she is deceptively – and simultaneously – complex and simple. Her Audrey inspires so many levels of symbolism it is almost embarrassingly rich (e.g., her modeling career beginning with photos of her foot – culminating her doing nude (but unseen) work; Manhattan move; Europe trip; her stealing, then sleeping with the mechanics wrench, etc.)
As Josh, Robert Burke gives an absolutely masterful performance. A reformed prisoner/penitent he returns to his home town to face down past demons, accept his lot and begin a new life. Dressed in black, and repeatedly mistaken for a priest, he corrects everyone ("I'm a mechanic"), yet the symbolism is rich: he abstains from alcohol, he practices celibacy (is, in fact a virgin), and seemingly has taken on vows of poverty, and humility as well. The humility seems hardest to swallow seeming, at times, almost false, a pretense. Yet, as we learn more of Josh we see genuineness in his modesty, that his humility is indeed earnest and believable. What seems ironic is the character is fairly forthright in his simplicity, yet so richly drawn it becomes the viewer who wants to make him out as more than what he actually is. A fascinatingly written character, perfectly played.
The scene between Josh and Jane (a wonderful, young Edie Falco . . . "You need a woman not a girl") is hilarious . . . real. But Hartley can't leave it as such and his trick, having the actors repeat the dialogue over-and-over becomes frustratingly "arty" and annoying . . . until again it becomes hilarious. What a terrific sense of bizarre reality this lends the film (like kids in a perpetual "am not"/"are too" argument).
Hartley's weaves all of a small neighborhood's idiosyncrasies into a tapestry of seeming stereotypes but which delves far beneath the surface, the catalyst being that everyone believes they know what the "unbelievable truth" of the title is, yet no two people can agree (including our hero) on what exactly that truth is. A wonderful little movie with some big ideas.
里面总是q我们中国人，有点不适，打斗配合音效挺爽的。搞笑段子也不错轻松的下饭电影。那种重拳的感觉有点漫威色彩
3.5 出彩的地方有，不合理的地方也有，但不失为一部不错的室内剧，地点单一，情节密集，老裁缝不是一般人这一点，从里朗斯似有还无的演技表现中就可略知一二
好看的小成本犯罪黑帮电影，场景只在一家小裁缝店，世界观与剧情只靠台词来扩张。演员的演技实在是好，老裁缝的扮猪吃老虎让他在前期和后期完全变成不一样的人，借由做衣服的步骤流程缓缓道出一切的计划，从容不迫，行云流水。中间的一小段时间交错剪辑很精彩，同时作为本片麦高芬的磁带也是在这里被做了手脚。标题的套装既指衣服又指组织，也暗示了幕后黑手，实在巧妙。而伦纳德一直强调自己是cutter不是tailor也别有一番意味了。
每次都是极其不利的情况下实现反转，虽然裁缝确实装得很普通很老实没有威胁性，很容易让人忽略，不过也因为是主角，死不了吧，不然早一枪崩了。
裁缝总是倾听，但是他们可能蕴藏巨大力量
还是和第一部一样的毛病，警察不用枪，全靠拳头解决，哪怕对面拿刀拿斧头也是一样拳头硬刚。
全世界都爱马东锡！反派也好帅 大砍刀咻咻咻
和第一部没太大差别的肌肉哥以暴制暴，就是看个过瘾，可惜没有第一部美女多。一身横练肌肉还加智商没必要
剧情算屁啊！马东锡一拳一个疯批就是正义的制裁！打完罪犯还要对围观群众道歉真是哈哈哈哈哈哈哈！爽片还是要看正义铁拳马东锡！
姜海尚（孙）刀挥得好狠，反社会得令人心颤。很多杀戮场面，很多血，怎么不是三级奇怪了。打架拳拳到肉，刺激，略超过我承受程度。不算爽片吧？坏人比较爽。
单一场景下的精致表演，故事转折有点理想化，但依旧很好看。
裁缝 总是在倾听，从不说话。没有人知道他脑袋里在想什么。 我不是裁缝，我是剪裁师。发生在一家定制服装店的，带英伦口音的美国芝加哥故事。黑暗中的优雅，但是即使穿上了西装，也不能掩盖人性的暴力
3.5星，感觉人物性格是为了剧情推进强行设定的。老头子的演技没法说，精妙绝伦，不愧是莎翁剧出身
如果你不追求完美 就无法做出伟大的事情。。。
感觉看了一部黑白老派70年代的电影。全片在一家裁缝店完成，太适合改成话剧了。开头的几个twist我还有点hmmm觉得嘴炮也太好骗了吧。结果适应节奏switch off把他作为一部谍战片来看以后真的非常精彩。演技设定剪辑都非常一流。
马克里朗斯演了个全能人物，裁缝干得好，店子开得好，治暴做得好，能文能武，还是个非常优秀的父亲。片子多次反转，但一切都太套路化了。想多看些有关裁缝的内容。裁缝和凶杀案的结合倒是还不错。
还蛮喜欢这种格调的片，主要男主演技好好啊，眼神里都是戏。唯一让我不解的就是中了两枪为何还能站起来，难道那俩人近战距离都能打出人体描边的效果？也不确认下有没有死透真是不专业。片尾好听。
各色反派轮番出场揍人挨揍如同NPC，无一有前作光头东北混子般的人物张力。插科打诨的桥段依然让人怀念港片。
玩了个东南亚叙事，可惜又回到了韩国，缺少第一部移民社区的空间感，各方面都显得像一般的动作片了。既然工作地点没变，他怎么管起整个首尔的治安了，膨胀了
