      Details win

      The plot is interesting, but the key is the people, the people, the people.
      The colors are very beautiful, the colors are bright, and the clothes are mostly bright colors.
      The soundtrack is so lovely. One time it's old pop music, another time it's Mexican guitar. The timing is very interesting.
      All kinds of characters have a play, everyone has a play, one or two lines, two or three actions, incisive When I got home, people immediately came alive, such as the guy who was shot in...

      Looks like a romance

      If I were a blacksmith who made guns, would I also think of marrying my daughter into a nobleman? As his neighbors, we would all like to see a lover get married, but parents always want their daughter to marry a good family. Parents are not always easy to believe in young people's love...why? Still the Son of Man, I still can't know. Maybe there is no pure love in the world, only young people are willing to believe it. At the end of the film, Julia asked Pitt's question and answer: If two...

      love choice

      Last night, I watched FIVE STAR, Pete and Roberts opposite. Ever since I fell in love with the death god, the humor in the film is extraordinary. It's good to be a punk, but he also cherishes love, and it's good to be a killer, but he is the same With a good heart.... Some of the details are as good as the Oscar winning films, For example, the murder of Pete and Roberts' friend-like killer, and the murder of a black gangster by a white policeman by mistake, the details are very...

      Broken pistols and bullshit legends

      what!
      Ha~
      This kid is really stunned
      , he screwed things up from the beginning, so a tangled robbery journey started in Mexico, and the
      beautiful big-mouthed girl was also involved in the unknown. . . . . .
      I like the way the big-mouthed girl is chattering and arguing with Pete, and
      I like the way she is full of righteous indignation and complaining about Pete and finally stuns. . .
      Although there is nothing to talk about in this film, it is even a little...

      I watched it a long time ago, and when I suddenly saw the title, I could immediately say that it was The Maxican. The plot technique, acting, and soundtrack are really impressive. Very...

    Behind the scenes gags

    On the way to the shooting location, one of the wheels of the van Roberts was riding on suddenly exploded while the car was driving at high speed, causing the car to bump up and down and skid to the outside. In the end, the driver braked successfully, and Roberts took another car in the team to the shooting location.
    The filming location is located in a desert area, and water needs to be rationed. In order to have water for bathing at...

    Evaluation action

    The film incorporates elements of romance, thriller, comedy, and crime. Pete and Roberts did not continue Hollywood's usual laws of good-looking men and women, but instead presented a new type of male and female protagonist relationship that made the audience's eyes shine. I hope to see the scene where Pete and Roberts shoot sparks. One is looking for a gun in Mexico, and the other is kidnapped in Las Vegas. Although the two actors are...

    • Jerry: Baby, what are you doing?

      Samantha: You said this was your last job, Jerry!

      Jerry: What do you want me to say? I'm sorry, I can't, the old lady wants me to quit. Fuck off.

      Samantha: Yes! Something like that. Like exactly!

      Jerry: I'm not in insurance, sweetie!

    • Jerry: Just one more word Sam, and I'll crash THIS FUCKING CAR!

    • Leroy: I know we're all a little grouchy right now. We'll get something to eat, you'll get the pistol and then we'll go our separate ways.

      Samantha: Really separate ways.

      Jerry: Don't start, Sam.

      Samantha: Shut up. I'll start because I have the right...

      Jerry: Why do you do that? Do not tell me to shut up. We had an agreement, remember?

      Samantha: Shut up.

      Leroy: Why don't we all shut up a bit?

      Jerry: I swear to God, I will crash this fucking car right now.

      Leroy: Jerry, don't do that.

      Jerry: I will. One more word out of you. Another word, Sam. One more word. I swear to fucking God.
