Hotel manager Marcus Winter is awaiting an important visitor to the Emirates Palace Hotel.His long-time friend – the representative of a big tour operator – should be arriving soon to inspect the hotel.But instead of his friend, it’s a new inspector that comes – Sarah Riems, whose ideas concerning the needs of hotel guests greatly differ from those of Marcus.Trying to impress Sarah with the distinctive flair of his hotel, Marcus makes a grand presentation, emphasizing the spectacular regional cuisine and even taking the inspector on several trips into the breathtaking desert. Still, it looks like a hard sell…At the same time, Anna, the hotel’s decorator, excitedly awaits the arrival of visitors of her own - her pen-pal Max and his friend Holger. Although Max and Anna have only once briefly met, his extremely romantic letters have filled her heart with passion.Once her guests are settled in the hotel though, it becomes quickly obvious to Anna that the Max who had inspired such a love in her through his letters is much different than the one she now sees before her.It’s the artistic Holger who is presently stirring her desire, which leads to a growing rivalry between the two men that strains their friendship.Meanwhile, the single mother Renate and her son Tobias have traveled to the hotel for a dream holiday. Soon, Renate’s real reason for the trip to Dubai surfaces - she wants Tobias to become acquainted with his father, who operates boat tours for the hotel guests – and who doesn’t even know his son exists…
艾伦·索金果然很擅长利用台词，外加凌厉的剪辑，把电影变得张力十足，就情感共鸣而言，即便不是太了解它的历史背景，它的煽动力还是很强的，最后念名字的桥段，把我看的热泪盈眶的。再有便是群戏强大，每个人都发挥了自己最好的水平。
热评给我看笑了。无可挑剔的台词被说成匠气，音乐一般带着激情又优美律动的剪辑被说成凌乱，只能说这种观众配不上Sorkin。单单是Dave在法庭上无意识打了警察然后不停道歉就值得本信徒再看100遍。
因为我来是叫人与父亲生疏，女儿与母亲生疏，媳妇与婆婆生疏。太10：35

艾伦·索金真是一如既往，带着精雕细琢的自我观点全力输出，但是我吃他这套~
仿佛在看好老婆。立个flag今年补完West Wing！
第一次听到Me and the Sky 还没get全部歌词就哭了，从此记住了这部剧。这次看官摄，从第一首歌里we will not be killed那里就开始哭。疫情后去剧场看的人应该和我一样吧。也希望有一天中国也会有感动全世界的作品，我们经历的也应该让全世界记得。最后，希望巡演赶快重启吧！我要进剧场看！
电影四平八稳。但，真心羡慕美帝人民，可以通过电影来扇老爷们的嘴巴。 羡慕那句“全世界都在看着你们”
索金编剧依旧出色，导演功力比《茉莉牌局》有明显进步。
感恩官摄，从I'm an islander开始哭瞎，最难受的是有些东西变了有些东西没变，但我们再也回不到二十年前。
集中的群像实际只有三个半在线，唇枪舌剑没有实质性内容。
索金写法庭戏值得期待。Netflix 10月16上
因为疫情产生了文本外的现实主义价值 又由于喜剧结尾在今年回归了浪漫主义 其角色具这两种精神为一身 so beautiful
配乐淡化了些许工整匠气，学院派的良心之作。
电影剧情和真实史料出入还是蛮大的。编剧极力淡化了八名被告在法庭上的各种激进行为和对法官的辱骂，把朱利斯霍夫曼塑造成了一个racist和顽固迂腐充满偏见的保守派，但实际上真实的霍夫曼甚至曾经撰文攻击过麦卡锡主义。
人家的主旋律电影……结尾交待，霍夫曼法官在年度评级中，被78%的芝加哥庭审律师评为“不合格”！
3.5分吧，其实不是品质不够4，是我期望可能有点过高。这么本身有话题性有戏剧性的事件，哪怕已经在群像上做的很棒，但我仍然期待Sorkin同学在价值表达上给我惊喜。。。但除了Tom和Hoffman那段对左派革命者应该呈现什么的争吵以及之后那段对于关键问题“谁挑起来的”平行剪辑高潮，其他部分真的看不出Sorkin的痕迹，连台词里应该透出的灵气都没了。。。高赞短评里的“匠气”说的很到位。
They say no man's an island, but an island makes a man.
开头与结尾的BGM就昭示着这是部庭审爽片XD结尾被感动到了，大概是“自己没有的权利只能通过围观来过瘾”心理吧（“我从未想过我会因自己的思想获罪”，感觉此类题材的庭审佳作都以此做母题（所以我们拍不出来，嗯……））
艺术来源于生活，真实的生活真实的故事最为动人。
