湮灭

　　高中女生Vee（艾玛·罗伯茨 Emma Roberts 饰）是个平凡无奇的乖乖女，平日最大的乐趣就是“窥视”学校里的男神JP。她的好友Sydney正沉迷于这个直播游戏里，为了吸引观看者而作出种种大胆行为。受其影响，平日习惯于当旁观者的Vee，也加入了这个直播游戏，成为了“玩家”。她的第一项冒险，就是亲吻一个陌生人。挑战成功后，她才发现这个陌生人Ian（戴夫·弗兰科 Dave Franco 饰）也是游戏玩家之一。他们俩的大冒险直播，从刚开始的好玩刺激，到逐渐走向失控。他们必须携手逃出这场玩命直播……

　　Erstwhile Special Forces operative Doc Alexander is asked to broker a truce with the Mexican drug cartel in secrecy. When Oklahoma Governor Richard Jeffs celebrates the execution of a high-ranking cartel member on TV, his Chief of Staff and Doc inform him about the peace he just ended. But it’s too late, as Cuco, the cartel’s hatchet man, has set his vengeful sights on Doc’s daughter Dixie.
　　They don’t make ’em like Little Dixie anymore: honed to the bone, all gestures and actions, only a few words. Too many genre films these days try to create meaning by piling ideas and intentions on their narrative frames. John Swab, as always, works the other way around. Meaning and depth come from taking away whatever is superfluous – by reducing the plot to its bare essence and the characters to their core trades and tricks.
　　Ultimately, Little Dixie feels like the pulp fiction version of a Giacometti sculpture, all fearful symmetries and mirror images. A gem of crime cinema at its purest and most philosophical, proudly featuring noir’s new darling, Frank Grillo.
