    Character Evaluation

    Jason Reitman and his father, Ivan Reitman, are good at action comedy styles. His favorite movie language is more three-dimensional and more modern. It has a sharp perspective to analyze reality, smart and funny ridicule, and the characters themselves are low-key and ordinary.

    Jason Reitman’s films mostly focus on the current realities of American society, choosing relatively marginal occupations or subjects, and shaping characters through complex and significant value conflicts or psychological crises, showing the integration of non-mainstream values ​​and mainstream life concepts . The characters in his films can be divided into "biological teenagers" and "psychological teenagers". They are faced with life crises or severe contradictions in values. These films analyze and discuss the problems of American society through their experiences and choices. In order to express these serious themes easily, his film language has outstanding characteristics in the use of close-up shots, triangular composition, music and fast editing .

      This is a faulty and seriously flawed story. When there are a lot of gangsters, what will happen if you don't call for help. These deliberate settings made the male and female protagonists a pair and staged a touching love story of the mountains and the sky, Nai Gan and Jun Jue, but in the end, I was a little nervous when I saw Kate's expression, this is probably the actor saved Movie now!
