Kiss Me Deadly

The movie Kiss Me Deadly directed by Robert Aldrich, was interesting. Now I could leave it at that, beacuse that is what I really thought of the movie but I would I not like to fail this blog, so i'm going to try to go into more detail about it. Even though I feel that it is difficult to do that.

What I thought was so strange about the movie was the two endings I feel that both of them are just weird and do not fit in properly with the technology that we have, but what I figured is for the time that the movie was released (1955) that is wht many of the movies were doing, so it was acceptable.

The first ending that we saw where Mike Hammer and Velda get away was confusing becasue if the box could blow up the house, wouldn't it start the rest of the world on fire and be the end of the world? Yet Mike and Velda get away, well I think that is what Aldrich was trying to get at. I feel that it just does not make sense.

Although the second ending to me makes more sense, because it is up to you to figure out what would happen to them and th rest of world. Yet it makes Mike Hammer seem like he just dropped off from everything that he was already doing, because he was just killing people before, by doing nothing.

In the end I feel like the movie would not have done well in this time period, because of all of the new technology that we ahve now.
