A most pleasingly atmospheric rendition of the tale, noirishly photographed and moodily set, this is the version which probably would have delighted Conan Doyle the most. There is one important plot change which enables the beautiful Alice Brandt to enjoy both a larger role and a more intriguing part in the proceedings. This change also builds up the parts of Dr Mortimer and Lord Charles, yet at the same time provides a nice introduction to the is-he-sinister or is-he-a-good-guy Barrymore, deftly played here by Fritz Rasp.
Despite the sting of its well-developed story, the spellbindingly atmospheric direction and the engrossing performances delivered by the entire cast, many fans may find this version somewhat disappointing. For at least three reasons: As in the novel, the part played in the narrative by Sherlock Holmes, though vital, is minimal. And in this version, not only has no attempt been made to enlarge his role, if anything both writer and director do their best to minimize it. Holmes does not even make his entrance for half-an-hour, and when he does finally appear, he has his back to the camera. It is Fritz Odemar, as Dr Watson, who receives the more favorable camera angles. And there is a purpose in this. It is Watson, not Holmes, who figures as the main protagonist of The Hound of the Baskervilles. For the bulk of the narrative, Holmes disappears. It is Watson and Lord Henry (Peter Voss) who take up the running. The movie is almost over, before Holmes closes in on the villain. And even so, this is not the obsessed, self-important Holmes we are accustomed to see taking charge. Another problem is that the title hound itself does not figure a great deal in the action, a downgrading which will undoubtedly rate as another major disappointment for fans. And finally, it could be argued that the script gives too much attention to Conan Doyle's red herring, the escaped convict, and not enough to the real villain.
This said, it must surely be admitted by all, that Odemar's interpretation of Watson—intelligent, charming, level-headed, courageous and resourceful—is much closer to Conan Doyle's conception than either the bungling, inveterately stupid Nigel Bruce or the self-effacing Ian Fleming.
One other player deserves special mention: Erich Ponto (Dr Winkel in The Third Man) who seems exactly right for Stapleton. A difficult part, superbly played.

美则美矣，但几乎毫无必要吧……看预告片我以为要拍得很抽象，当我发现这是真的要把故事原原本本完全过一遍的时候我的内心几乎是崩溃的。
以前看中翻的莎剧总是不以为然，原来莎剧的精髓在英文，这台词听的真过瘾！摄影就不多说了，就提一下黑白电影里用烟雾转场挺有意思的。这次又把戏剧与电影的融合推向另一个高度，可见科恩兄弟对风格的深刻理解，他们在我心中是目前这一方面的天花板（不过）。以前看中翻的莎剧总是不以为然，原来莎剧的精髓在英文，这台词听的真过瘾！摄影就不多说了，就提一下黑白电影里用烟雾转场挺有意思的。这次又把戏剧与电影的融合推向另一个高度，可见科恩兄弟对风格的深刻理解，他们在我心中是目前这一方面的天花板（不过这次弟弟没来hhh）。
极简、黑白、莎剧台词。华盛顿不够疯狂又太疲倦
开年影院第一部 乔尔科恩单飞的非常风格化黑白片 舞台到影像转化的典范 摄影场景音效音乐包括建筑 都是上佳 每一帧都是大片质感 丹泽尔华盛顿和科恩嫂的影帝影后对飙莎翁戏 大量面部特写都能锤锤震动摄影机 最惊艳的是开场的女巫 以杂技软功表演配合念白 又冷酷又戏谑 PS 其实没怎么听懂 手机里搜出中文版剧本 也不能一直盯
极端风格化的一出棚拍舞台剧。同为A24出品，像是《灯塔》和《绿衣骑士》的集合体。与《灯塔》同为4：3黑白画幅，前者更注重光影而本片更注重构图。弗朗西斯麦克多蒙德的又一个冲奥角色，戏份不够突出不看好。除了视觉上足够享受外与之同等的是观影过程的空虚。
就当是看舞台剧吧，这样密集复古的台词如果当成电影看还是会觉得很奇怪很难入戏的
莎翁原版古英语，黑白光影加象征性场景，完全是电影版舞台剧。华盛顿影帝级表演完全消除了黑人麦克白的违和感，弑君前的踌躇不安，称帝后的躁动癫狂，预言后的自负狂妄转换自如，不亚于话剧大牌演员。唯一可惜上限于此，不如真正去舞台上表演一把。
科恩兄弟单飞了？不光单飞，科恩大哥的构图怎么有点学韦斯安德森了？不管怎么，绝对没有黑泽明大师的版本那么惊艳和张力十足，这个版本有点偏于简陋和仓促。
與其吃力不討好地仿古，拍成科恩兄弟擅長的黑色喜劇不是更有意思嗎？
虽然不是烂片，但是这风格，那么有我最喜欢的丹泽尔，也看不下去了
就当看个实景拍摄的名著电影吧。黑白色调拍出了惊悚，也奠定了悲剧气氛。预言式定场的套路看来中外皆同，不过麦克白更多的像是角色明知道结局却被魔鬼牵引着走的无奈，而中国则是不知道结局，莫名其妙走向结局的无奈。还是有所区别。(ps：个人可能还是无法接受所有的心理状态都通过语句展现，如果部分的心理状态能通过语句说出来觉得更靠谱点，而且觉得如果情感不剧烈却说心理状态也挺影响演员的面部表情和表演的。所以感觉莎翁剧看剧本还好，一还原到舞台或电影就不大看的进去了。最后那个麦克白不怕女人生的咒语被打破的原因比较喜感）
是看过的第一版的《麦克白》，不存在有没有创新性的问题。整体都很舞台剧化，摄影光影美学和各个的舞台搭建很引人注目，对白都是诗歌型的，把宿命感都铺陈开来了，还是挺对口味的
形式华丽、构图精致、摄影绝美、表演扎实，奈何以伯格曼《第七封印》般肃穆的影像风格复刻黑泽明《蜘蛛巢城》电影质感对莎翁文本的经典诠释，细节上做得再极致，也不过是邯郸学步的削足适履。抽离了科恩兄弟引以为傲的荒诞底色，在视觉上加buff也不过是一场极致华丽的舞台秀，却没有科恩式的电影感，于是沦为学院派气息浓厚的情怀之作，在美学上是精彩的影像实验，于电影本体却鸡肋许多。
我们所有的昨天，不过是替愚人们照亮了通往死亡土壤的去路，熄灭吧，熄灭吧，短促的烛光，人生不过是一个行走的影子，一个舞台上指手画脚的拙劣伶人。
最後一鏡比群鳥恐怖😟“Delbonnel的挑戰”😇
3.5 几位主演表现与建筑布景剪影加分 预感自己会更喜欢ntlive版
I dare do all that may become a man; Who dares do more is none，这句话我觉得可以概括全部麦克白想表达的内涵，最后一句不是要说没有人比我更男人/勇敢，而是说越界了他就走向了不是一个男人、一个正常人的limbo，这就是他的悲剧
麦克白和其夫人看起来极其mentally healthy，半点鬼胎也不怀，整部电影看完怕是能得出黑人因为种族歧视才当不上国王的结论
风格很好，很像伯格曼的第七封印。但没有新的东西。style over substance
通过服装的材质反射的光泽给黑白片加上了柔软度和舒适感。看完花絮才知道这个片子特效这么多，400多个特效镜头也算大制作。学院画面和黑白确实让人很集中在奥斯卡影帝们的表演上。
