长篇影评
1 ) 勉强
故事讲述了哥伦比亚的小镇女孩玛丽亚为了寻求生活的改变去美国走私毒品，她的朋友因为体内的毒丸破裂而死亡，玛丽亚帮朋友料理后事后留在了美国。 哥伦比亚的毒品问题从来都不是犯罪那么简单，从最早的战争利益驱使而遗留下来，对某些人而言毒枭甚至是反美的英雄，也是很多穷苦的哥伦比亚人的谋生方式。玛丽亚的故事对哥伦比亚或者说对整个银三角地区以及墨西哥都是社会中的常见的现象。 从电影的角度而言，故事没什么问题，规规矩矩的讲完，就是一部带着地域色彩的现实题材电影。其表达的是在那样的社会之下，哥伦比亚的底层人想要获得机会，离开这样的生活。
2 ) 想了解墨西哥毒品cartel，看了这部
今天看了《国家的常识》，讲到墨西哥那章，讲到毒品cartel，我就想到Uli当时打工时给我讲到的墨西哥的，和哥伦比亚的毒品交易。今天在中来大寝室搜搜，就想看这部电影。
哥伦比亚，其实是一个很美丽浪漫的名字，西班牙语虽然让我觉得不如法语好听，优雅，但依然是很有味的语言。平静的小镇，只有剪玫瑰花的工作；而首都波哥大，只让我看到所有大城市的弊病，脏乱差，这可能在发展中国家表现得更明显，或者说，拉美给我的感觉就是这样的。
看了电影，总是会觉得这个世界上的生活会有这么多不同，当我还在烦恼考英语，继续学习，追求degree的时候，有多少哥伦比亚，墨西哥少男少女在干着毒品的工作，在拉美，很多人就以此为生，不会觉得很惊讶。
生活是残酷的，如lucy这样的，拉丁裔这么多人生活在美国，似乎也喜欢说西班牙语，让我想到亨廷顿的《我们是谁》，这是一些联想。

3 ) 孕之新生
上课的时候，老师放了无字幕版的前半部分，我回来又在优酷看了有字幕的后半部分————————
就像传言和我们纷乱的印象和感知一样，哥伦比亚是个充满毒品走私，战乱和存在巨大贫富差距的国家。就算是要去留学，也要三思。影片开始就用镜头平实的记录那些脏乱的街巷，晃荡的无业游民，贫乏的物质生活和严苛单调的乡村工作。
17岁的Maria，在献花加工厂收到老板的辱骂，愤然辞职。跟男朋友沟通未果，不想因为怀孕就草率结婚。带着对经济状况的不满和对爱的怀疑，她搭贩毒小喽啰顺风车去了波哥大。举目无亲的她，被人体贩毒的巨大收入吸引，于是铤而走险。
她被带到药店，走进暗房，吞下了50颗包好海洛因的塑胶丸。当她坐上飞机的时候，才发现同行的有4个。其中，教过她的Lucy在机上开始难受。当Maria难受至极，想要排泄的时候，竟然想到毒枭对自己的威胁，有不得不吞了回去。入境检查，Maria被强势逼问，但是由于自己是孕妇，最终得以幸运入境。另外的一位就没那么好运了。
杯具的是，Lucy在接头的旅馆死掉了。带着疑虑和困惑，她携毒逃到纽约，借住在Lucy姐姐家中。一直的好朋友Blanca也被拉入伙。她们相互讥讽，埋怨。在帮助非法移民的Fernando面前，露出了马脚。Fernando帮忙找到了Lucy的尸体，并且要求筹措2500美元送尸体回哥伦比亚。Lucy的姐姐在知道真相之后也将她们赶出家门。二人无奈的找回组织，拿到应得的酬劳。Maria几乎用尽全部的钱，送Lucy最后一程。然后在机场，为了自己的孩子，她选择留在美国。虽然孤独寂寞，但是一样的卑微，至少在这里可以延续自己的希望。
多金跟生死的游戏相关。贫苦却换得内心安宁。
其实每个人的命运都是随机选择的，自己决定好坏的几率还是很大的。如果Maria不被丰厚的酬金诱惑，断然不会铤而走险。但是说到底，如果她这样的天生丽质，出生在殷实的家境，就不会被逼到社会的边缘。但是，万幸的是，我们在结局看到了一个天性善良，体会过个中滋味的少女，母性驱使，留在这片外人梦寐以求的土地上，去追寻可能得幸福。
腹中的生命，是她的庇护神。他们都将迎接新生。

4 ) A Choice
This is the harrowing story of a (not quite) typical mule: Maria Alvarez (Moreno), an intelligent and fiercely independent 17-year-old girl from Colombia who agrees to smuggle a half-kilo of heroin into the United States.
Walking out of the theatre, I found myself at a loss of words.
What struck me the most about the story was how un-exaggerate everything was. Let it be Maria’s job, her village, or her family. They were portrayed with moderation and care. The result was impressively real and honest. Maria’s job was not uncommon for a third world country’s village girl of 17. I’ve read far worse treatment and horror stories of factory workers in ShenZheng, China. The real evil was in the lack of a choice. All Maria had was the job in the flower factory. It was the only economic opportunity presented to Maria. It was what her family, even her entire village depended on. Sounds familiar? I thought of that British mining town in Billy Elliot.
Like all country girls who rebelled against their fate, Maria made a choice, the same choice all country girls in her shoes made, to go to the city. On her way, she was tempted away from the possibility of becoming a rich family’s maid; instead, she was offered an adventure. Traveling, America, and American dollars added together proven to be too big a temptation to turn down for a rebellious country girl. Was there really a huge difference for her, between pulling thorns off roses and swallowing cocaine pellets and carried them to America? Both were rich people’s merchandises, both were beyond her reach. She was one little link in the economy chain. The latter sounded a lot more exciting than the former, and it would take her beyond the depressing village outside of Bogota. She was, finally, presented a choice.
The subsequent story made me admire Maria’s intelligence and coolness. But it also chilled me to the bone to see how cruel and brutal the drug world was (is).
Would legalizing drugs clean up all these brutality? Would legalizing drugs prevent Maria and her fellow Columbian women from participating in this dark and ugly trade?
If so, then why wouldn’t any country take that step?
“Because drugs are evil and hurt people who use them. How could you legalize something so damaging to our very selves? How could any government give out any signal that drug abuse is ‘legal’, therefore, ‘ok’?”
Because not legalizing it made it worse? Because the huge profit margin is driving the drug trade into a frenzy, and it is killing poor people like Maria left and right? Cigarette is legal, isn’t it? It is harmful to people’s health, too. Why is that okay to endorse but not drugs? Since when human being became such innocent creatures?
“If you legalize drugs, then more people will become drug addicts. That would be disastrous and self-destructive.”
Okay. People have self-destructive tendencies. There are evils in these world, too many. People always have the choice of whether to become drug addicts, just like people have the choice of whether to smoke a cigarette. Are you saying that government has the right to make the choice for its citizens that the government knows what is best? What about education? What about the fittest survive? It is not like I don’t get drug offered when I walk down Telegraph Ave. in Berkeley, it is not like high school kids don’t get drug offers in parties, at playground, on their way to school, anyways. It is happening right now. How much worse could it get? Besides, once it became legal, it could take away the “adventurous lure” it has right now to the rebellious type. Couldn’t it?
Drug abuse is part of modern societies already. We have to deal with it. But if legalizing it could take away the huge profit for the drug lord, then it could reduce their incentive to produce them. It could dry up so many money sources for terrorist groups and anti-government organizations. It could save Maria and girls like her the fate of dying on ruptured cocaine pellets that they carry in their stomach. It could save them from being treated like animals (”mule”), whose stomach was cut open so their cargo could be retrieved. Mule’s life was of no consequence. The dehumanization of Maria and her fellow mules was not caused by drug’s own evil-ness directly. It was made possible by the huge profit of drug trade, and its huge profit came from their illegal status. It was made possible because of human being’s own greed.
If government wants to do good to the society, then it could place the choice into everyone’s own hand. Take away the possibility to make people even more greedy than they already are. Don’t tempt them. Trust them.
In Chinese modern history, there was a much revered national hero, General Lin Zexu. Who initiate the fight against the British in 1840’s. He burned all the opium he could gather in a huge public display. His angry words are still recited in today’s Chinese elementary school classrooms, “Opium is evil, it weakened our people, our soldier, our country…” But the fact was, Chinese society was weakened from inside before opium even appeared. The closed society has been quietly rotten away from top to bottom for centuries. There was little outlet for real talent of the society. There wasn’t much progress happeneing for the society as a whole. Corruptions were prevalent. Opium provided an escape. A dying plant happened upon a killer disease. It was easy to blame the disease. Even though General Lin Zexu won his opium war, the final treaty between the British and the Qin Dynasty turned out to be the first of many humiliating treaties to come in China’s Modern History. Burning Opium didn’t help General Lin’s cause. Burning the entire country might. That was exactly what Chairman Mao tried over a century later.
There is a little analogy in gardening. When a flower attracted diseases, it was often because the plant itself was weak and unhealthy, either from lack of water, light, or too much water, etcetera. To prevent disease from happening, you either make the plant strong and healthy, or you try to shut down all disease sources. The latter has proven to be a harder path. Shutting down flow of air would usually cause more problems to the plant. Exposing the plant to the natural elements was usually more healthy for the plant. As long as the plant was healthy, often it could fight off many diseases using its own strength.

5 ) 善恶之花
《万福玛丽亚》以其冷静克制的风格呈现、内核却是世界性苦难的问题、与金基德残酷外部世界《撒玛利亚的女孩》相比较、影片中的美丽女主角表现出来的沉稳、独立、隐忍、富有同情心等美好品格隐喻着宗教类型的化身，但现实中用身体去贩毒携带出境，用青春的生命去铤而走险，内心萌芽实施的这种恶的走向，人性总是充满着矛盾，电影也真切地表达了这种双重性。 第三世界国家向往的＂美国梦＂，往往就是一场豪赌，生命的赌注新闻报道中整船、整车厢、偷渡窒息死亡的案例世界为之震惊，但还是有人不断地叩响达闯这道鬼门关，《万福玛丽亚》中也是用这样的主题揭露这种丑恶的交易，影片没有用太多残酷的画面来表达，而是通过玛丽亚的经历和内心变化来影射。 导演乔舒亚.马斯顿以拍摄美剧作品而著称：《新闻编辑室》、《扪心问诊》第一季、《柏林情报站》第一季、《傲骨贤妻》第五季、《六尺之下》第五季等都让人津津乐道，电影《骨肉之躯》、《万福玛丽亚》也是他的代表作品。
片名如果直译的话叫做＂恩典满溢的玛丽亚＂，译为《万福玛丽亚》很贴切了一点也没问题，宗教完美化身的玛丽亚与影片中玛丽亚的运气与善良有着点滴相伴，罪孽中的悔意和怀孕检查中对新生命的希望喜悦，在返回故乡机场的入口处毅然地回头留下来，《万福玛丽亚》导演应该也是在祝福剧中人物和现实世界类似的人物，隐隐感动的同情心，饰演玛丽亚的卡塔琳娜.莫雷诺演技自然有深度、同样也楚楚动人。
6 ) 救赎
海报真是个绝妙的讽刺。天主教仪式中的无酵饼被一颗毒品取代。她为了拯救自己于贫困，于不甘、于落魄，她为了自己假想中的未来，她为了自己未婚先孕的小宝宝能在将来有资本接受良好的教育，不得以铤而走险选择体内贩毒，前往她根本没有去过的美国。
而我们都会相信影片里这个迫于生活迫于无奈的失业弱女子，是怀着善良的心向往着美好的生活的。
因为阿克毛，我想起了这部电影，以及李米的猜想。
最终执行贩运毒品的都只不过是这样的小罗罗。
他们多数迫于贫穷无奈。
真正的boss还不知道藏在哪个深山老林中。
究其根源，是因为经济发展的滞后、资源的失衡。
如果边境地区的人们能和较发达地区享有同样的经济、教育资源，
那也许不至于把生活逼上这条铤而走险的极端。
一方面要打击，
一方面也要建设，
而后者也许是解决问题的关键。

美国梦，中国梦，哥伦比亚梦。
故事真实、平静、扣人心弦。一切不露痕迹。

原来姑娘光漂亮也没用，还是得出身好
惊心动魄.
贪婪 贫穷 落后 终于在最后肚子里的孩子那里看到希望
万福玛丽亚！玛利亚运毒成功，没死，钱也得到了，我的心总算放下了。三百六十行，行行出状元，看人家招聘员工、包装毒品、细心指导服毒、运毒一条龙工程，相当技术活！社会大环境发展中、家庭条件太差，工作环境太差、搞个对象吧完蛋*的，这女主玛利亚要改善捉襟见肘的生活，运毒的确是最直接的方法。
震惊了，真的震惊了。把希望交给了“美国梦”也同样让我震惊。
竟然没有滑向更黑暗的结局。少女没有回到哥伦比亚是在情理之中
人家17的时候都早恋怀孕贩毒了，我17的时候还语文数学英语呢
这其实是个关于梦想的残酷命题，冷静的近乎冷漠。
关于选择。
美女～
我只是不喜欢结局。
美女。
