双雪涛这剧本好，但鹏飞还是老问题，这次更是被剧本带着走，人物塑造和人物拍摄都差很多意思。这片门槛还挺高的，因为对于我这个80后还关心那时代旧事会看到各种亲切内容，但跟现在95后00后就太远了。最后表演都是在94-95年的，对于年轻观众来说，那时候是没出生啊！连电视台为啥开业要搞这些都没这个数啊！只能说这片是中老登的念旧。我猜测卡洛看这片是不太喜欢的，鹏飞之前作者性内容淡出，更多是为了贴合故事和人物聚焦式表现，这种东西，这次鹏飞导演表现也并出色。就挺多遗憾的。对于我这种喜欢东北叙事的来说，看到了很多东北人那时代的创伤，伤痕情感，也看到那时代东北人那种奋发向上的朝气。这些都是现在东北很难看到。看了资料，发现音乐还是铃木庆一。影片最后的飞行家表演那段配乐真的值得一个年度最佳候选，用迈向新时代的编曲思路，做成新电子器乐大叙事的现代律动音乐，给予希望和未知，又有节奏感的音色作为踏步声隐喻，是主人公开始一步步坚实努力地走向飞升那种感觉。整部作品风格也多样，比之前跟鹏飞合作的音乐还要丰富。非常大喜。还有，蒋明奇和李雪琴演得都挺好的，特别是李雪琴，想起两年多之前看的《逍遥游》，她也是非常惊喜。
