      'Comedy is usually for funny people'

      'Comedy is usually for funny people'

      When George said it, he made a pun, a bit lonely and self-deprecating. Because the ex-girlfriend temporarily changed her mind, she chose family, stayed with her husband and children, and did not go with him.

      It is difficult to accurately translate this line of dialogue into Chinese, and it would be too boring to think that "comedy is usually for interesting people". This line of dialogue appeared in that scene, which made people laugh and...

      drag home

      There are not so many spoof comedies, Judd Apatow still has a more serious side, and the actors are also doing their best. Many Judd Apatow's friends came to make a cameo, although most of them can't be named, but some also If you can look familiar, there are two problems: the first is that some of the single-person joke performances in the film are really incomprehensible, and it is difficult to laugh, which will affect the understanding of the film to some extent, and the second is that Judd...

      Not very FUNNY PEOPLE

      I have never seen a comedy that lasted two and a half hours.

      The third comedy from the director of 40 YEAR OLD VIRGIN and KNOCKED UP brings together "R-rated comedy dude" Adam Sandler and up-and-coming comedian Seth Rogen about the "death experience" of a comedy superstar. The first half is a bit about the meaning of the comedian's life, so it's relatively serious. Although there are some smirks to neutralize it, it's a little dull.

      Personally, I think the highlight is a...

      Funny people, are you a good person or a bad person


      Director Judd Apatow is a Vanity Fair lover who often sings the praises of Hollywood's snobbish culture, but he also loves showing real people. Every step of the film does not shy away from yellow jokes, the actors' lines are relatively close to the dialogue in real life, and the theme of the film is also very kind, very positive and full of California's unique hope.

      Do comedians have a real sense of humor? Star Lord is serious, and Seinfield is serious too. Among the comedians,...

      Not only Chinese people will take pictures of the best in trash, but foreigners will also

      It is no exaggeration to call this movie the best of trash movies. The two male protagonists have been talking about their JBs and telling jokes that are not funny at all. The audience below also laughed like SBs. I wonder if the laughter of foreigners is really that low. I really admire that a foreign movie can have so many boring plots that can’t be brought up by a single line, and there are so many aimless and uninteresting plots. Marginal nonsense can be said. The screenwriter is really...

      Because of being misdiagnosed as terminal cancer, the popular comic superstar, inspired by an assistant full of youthful vigor and beautiful dreams, begins to re-examine his sensual life, looking for the pure love that he once had in the flashy and degenerate years. The content of this kind of talk show in the United States is extremely vulgar, of course, this kind of vulgarity itself is part of our daily...

    "Funny People" did not adhere to the usual light comedy style of director Judd Apatow, but changed to a "laughing with tears" model. Adam Sandler played a terminally ill comedian. His performance was well received, but It is this kind of slightly sad story that makes the film's box office not good (Sina Entertainment Review)  .
    "Funny People" was recognized by the audience, and media critics gave mixed reviews on the film (Netease...
