American psychologist John Holden arrives in London to participate in a symposium aiming to expose witchcraft and devil-worship as a fraud, with attention centered on a cult run by a Julian Karswell. Debarking his plane, Holden learns that the symposium leader, Henry Harrington, has suddenly died and he is now in charge. What only the audience knows is that Harrington was clearly killed by a demon, apparently summoned by Karswell to avenge his persecution. Despite both threatening and cajoling behavior by Karswell, Holden determines to proceed, though the only cult member willing to talk about his experiences is in a prison psychiatric ward, catatonic after allegedly killing yet another cult member. However, Harrington's niece, Joanna, believes, based on her uncle's notes, that Karswell may indeed have some satanic powers derived from an ancient tome in an obscure language which he has been able to translate, and attempts to warn the skeptic Holden. Karswell's mother also attempts to warn Holden off. However, the thing which begins to most get to Holden are the occasional, but mounting, sensory and mental disturbances he begins experiencing after an encounter with Karswell, and the discovery that, during this encounter, Karswell secretly slipped a slip of parchment with a curse in runic symbols on it into Holden's belongings, a parchment identical to one Harrington recorded having had passed to him in a similar manner shortly before his death... [N.B. Holden at no point stays at the Karswell estate].
画面氛围还不错，7分
其实科幻末日背景挺弱的，借助阳光灼人的设定讲人的封闭孤独和不信任，当杰夫芬奇和狗狗建立起信任时，生命就能重返阳光下，人害怕伤害不愿信人，但又总是渴望获得赞扬陪伴和信任，就像芬奇始终保留来自父亲的明信片，杰夫想获得芬奇和小狗的认同。所幸芬奇离开时身边有杰夫和狗狗的陪伴，杰夫领略桥上明媚的风光后还有信心去看新的世界。 汤姆汉克斯独角戏carry全场，机器人杰夫呆萌，小狗值得一座狗界小金人，难得能看到一部如此舒服的电影。
20220323，平平淡淡的片子好像没有高潮，如同表面平静的大海，实际蕴藏巨大的能量。独自一人静静看片，独自体验主人公芬奇害怕孤独的感觉。
英国导演英国编剧难怪Jeff会一直说sorry呀
一个幸存者走完最后一段旅程的故事，勾勒出一个末世
汤姆汉克斯总能接到高质量剧本，这部片子估计能进今年奥斯卡吧，多个奖项都可以提名。
披着科幻外衣的文艺片，末日背景下的一人一狗一机器，简单又动人，喜欢这个通人性的机器人
3.5 对未来的想象如此悲观，大概是疫情对艺术家的负面影响实在很大吧，最后机器人和狗狗一起送别最后一个人类的一幕，还可
末世温情小品…阿甘老伯伯娓娓道来once upon a time的人性小故事，关于信任、性本恶的悲观故事，环境条件的恶化不是致命，与人斗才是灭绝的原因…Jeff刚开始的配音很怪也很棒…
trust是什么，逝去的人们不懂，成了留给机器人和狗的课题。小狗演员Seamus真可爱，据说是爱尔兰㹴混血
今日份的感动。怎么最近看的片子都是有关世界末日的。（某视频网站上的弹幕们到了世界末日还在区分国别，真是无趣。）
疫情之下断断续续看汤姆•汉克斯《芬奇》，这是他本人《荒岛余生》的世界末日版，同样是一个人支撑了一部电影。世界只剩一人，支撑一个人活下去的是求生的本能、希望、责任感和爱，人类对小狗的爱，机器人对小狗的爱（对动物的爱，机器的爱映射的其实是人间的爱），世界终究还是有美好，阳光空气和自由都很好。伤感的是美好刚刚到来，人生有未竟之愿，遗憾之事，芬奇就离开了世界，如同一句歌词：我在刚开始的瞬间毁灭。毕竟意难平。
D— / 狠好，2021年了还在努力为豆瓣top250输送后备电影。
They made a robot to care lives. We made politics to kill.
追念“American Pie”金曲，湯姆·漢克斯的個人獨角戲……另一種情懷
虽然不明白什么原理可以让机器人永远有电。不过有这么一个朋友照顾一切还能送终。确实也太安心了。。。虽然是科幻，但讲的都是信任。好像很适合2020以后世界末日的样子。2022年又严重了。
完美，集合所有我喜欢的元素：废土、未来、科幻元素、狗狗。Jeff的演绎非常出色，细微的动作传达出丰富的情感，虽然是机器人，但是你能感觉到他的体温。最后太催泪了，呜哇，眼泪它就是停不下来啊啊啊！！！！
男人的浪漫。虽然机器人的设定有那么多缺陷感觉是硬找冲突，但那最后一抱真的爆哭，汤姆汉克斯太强...逻辑不重要了，只剩下温情，2021需要这片子
2021年水平线上的家庭温情片，大片特效拍小片
温情的末世小品，忽略掉微微突兀的加州情怀（？），都很好。
