如何评价《神秘岛》
首先声明，我是真的挺喜欢这部《神秘岛》小片的，n刷过后我也看了一些导演和演员的相关采访，对这个电影也有了一些更深的感受和想说的话。这其实是于适自己在路演的时候对电影的形容，我觉得还挺准确的：他说这部电影就像一瓶冰镇过的橘子姜味汽水，一开始喝下去凉爽愉悦，但最后回味起来又会有点辛辣苦涩，我现在可以说就处在这个回味的阶段。
优酷网友热评：慕名去看，画面很精致，演技也在线，台词意味深长，编剧非常用力，最终呈现出来的是一支华丽的舞蹈。
来自网易云网友的评价：导演以自身的传统美学功底，对电影的写实艺术特性也有精深的理解和把握，他特别擅以生动的细节描绘人物的内心活动，并调动电影的各种艺术元素为塑造人物服务。
