Thriller

由奧斯卡最佳導演西德尼·波拉克執導，影后妮可·基德曼、影帝西恩·潘聯袂主演的文藝驚悚片《翻譯風波》不負眾望，以2200多萬美元的成績勇奪本周北美票房冠軍，外電報道如下：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“恐怖電影，驚悚片”，此外還有“驚險讀物，懸疑小說”等含義。在口語中亦可表示“引起街頭巷尾議論的新聞；使毛骨悚然的人或物”。 據悉，美國媒體對該片的評價褒貶不一，素以眼光挑剔著稱的《紐約郵報》給出C+，認為影片的節奏略顯緩慢，幾處加速、減速控制得不穩；但符合時尚審美的前衛媒體《好萊塢觀察者》卻以A-肯定了妮可與西恩的精湛演技。 （中國日報網站編）
