Thriller

由奥斯卡最佳导演西德尼·波拉克执导，影后妮可·基德曼、影帝西恩·潘联袂主演的文艺惊悚片《翻译风波》不负众望，以2200多万美元的成绩勇夺本周北美票房冠军，外电报道如下：Nicole Kidman and Sean Penn's "The Interpreter" translated into solid box-office as the United Nations thriller debuted with $22.8 million to top the weekend for Hollywood. The weekend's other main debut, Ashton Kutcher and Amanda Peet's romantic comedy "A Lot Like Love," had a so-so opening of $7.7 million, coming in at number four, according to studio estimates Sunday. Expanding nationwide after two weeks in limited release, Stephen Chow's action comedy "Kung Fu Hustle" was number five with $7.3 million, lifting its total domestic gross to just over $8 million. Thriller在此表示“恐怖电影，惊悚片”，此外还有“惊险读物，悬疑小说”等含义。在口语中亦可表示“引起街头巷尾议论的新闻；使毛骨悚然的人或物”。 据悉，美国媒体对该片的评价褒贬不一，素以眼光挑剔著称的《纽约邮报》给出C+，认为影片的节奏略显缓慢，几处加速、减速控制得不稳；但符合时尚审美的前卫媒体《好莱坞观察者》却以A-肯定了妮可与西恩的精湛演技。 （中国日报网站编）
