Jake Gyllenhaal: “Going to the movies is like wearing an attraction and you can’t feel it at home”

Date:

Watching a Michael Bay movie is like drinking five Red Bulls before going to the movies. Everything seems agitated, revolutionary and anabolic. In his hands the film about a bank robbery and his subsequent escape turns into a brutal chase, full of speed-accelerating drones, exploding cars, shootings, explosions and situations that only he could have imagined. It all happens in him Ambulance: An escape planHis new film tells the story of two brothers, Jake Gyllenhaal and Yahya Abdul-Matin II, who are abandoned by the system and decide to rob a bank in order to survive.

So begins the Spidey title, which has a small social background. Thanks to the series, the character of one of the most fashionable actors in Hollywood, Abdul-Matin II guard, He is a former sailor who can not treat his wife. With his brother he was always on the edge and fighting for survival. Although it’s really important in it Emergency They are not ousted from the system, but rather chases, car bombings, and action scenes that are the hallmark of a home. Gyllenhaal and Abdul-Matini were in Spain and presented a film that was shot and should be seen in cinemas.

Both confirm that filming with Michael Bay is “as cruel as watching it.” This time, Bay’s love for wrecked and exploded cars is on the verge. Every five minutes a chase takes place for several cars with fatal consequences. The actors laugh when asked about the number of cars that Bay has crashed into Emergency. “The number is: a lot,” laughs Jake Gyllenhaal. “When you take Michael Bay with you, you are in a lot of scenes where cars crash, but sometimes you take a break and go to another scene where you just talk but suddenly you hear somewhere. Otherwise something will fall apart and crash into another car. I think on average about 5 cars break down, that’s 39 days of shooting … I think sometimes they re-use them to destroy them again. “I really think more than 100 cars were wrecked in this movie.”

Bay gives the two characters a background to talk about the city, Los Angeles, which lives in inequality. In the midst of the chase you can see huge rows of beggars in tents. For the two characters, their characters are victims of the system. “My character does not want to admit it, he decided to adapt to the idealistic vision of being part of the system, but he knows deeply that he is a victim. His brother tries to wake him up, he says. “Look what you are, you deserve more than you have,” explains Yahya Abdul-Matin II.

For an actor, the need to talk about things beyond cinema is inherent in a person and not in his profession: “As a person and not as an actor, I think that if something motivates me, I should speak. It bothers you, you have the right to do it. But I do not think actors should have responsibilities in these matters. My responsibility as an actor is prepared and I do my job well. “Everything comes from this. It is my personal responsibility as a person.”

So many explosions and fireworks Ambulance: An escape plan They are designed to be seen on the big screen (the more, the better), surrounded by sound and enjoyed by many people at once, and that is what Michael Bay is going to do. “It’s designed for the big screen. Look at the sound, the scale, the scenes when we have helicopters over Los Angeles … It’s a touchscreen experience that I think is perfect and designed and built specifically for the big screen, so let’s see it “In the format in which it was created,” said Abdul-Matin II.

An opinion he shares with Jake Gyllenhaal: “This film is an experience. When you sit in a movie theater in front of a giant screen and surrounded by people, it’s an experience like riding a roller coaster and you do not have it. “Yes, you can carry it alone, but since we are so far apart, it’s better to be together in one place.”
