      Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now

      I happened to hear this song again on the high-speed rail today, and I went back to the moment when I saw Bill dancing to my sister. At that time, I didn't know how to poke myself, and suddenly cried into a dam. I still remember the light in the room at that time. I was lying on the mattress, opening my mouth silently, and breathing violently. After that, I felt that the whole person was saved. Thinking about the psychological activities at that time, it was probably because the younger...

      Friendship can't replace sister and brother

      If a movie can attract me in ten minutes, it won't be too bad. A station accidentally saw it, unexpectedly wonderful (watching movies also pay attention to fate). This is a movie about family love. In the film, the two brothers and sisters had a not-fortunate childhood, and they depended on each other emotionally. Because of a key issue, the two had conflicts and differences, and there was no contact for ten years later. And their character is so strong that they are...

      Crash brother and sister: people and people and life

      IMDb: 7.2 Metacritic: 74/7.0 Rottentomatoes: 86%(7)/80%(3.8)
       
      If this movie is not starring Shi Xiaofang and Aunt Wei, I’m afraid it will have several levels of depression.
      And it is with such a pair of comedians that a good hand is played.

      Before discussing this novel family drama, we can take a look at the four core actors in the film:
      Bill Harder from the famous longevity comedy show "Saturday Night Live SNL", with amazing comedy talent. The imitating ability is...

      Tone

      At the beginning of The Skeleton Twins, Kristen Wiig was holding a pile of pills in his hand. He was about to swallow them and left, but received a call from a distant hospital telling her that his twin, Bill Hader, had just attempted suicide. The ingenious combination of seriousness and black humor in this scene is the epitome of the tone of the whole scene. The reason why the film is great is that the director has a good grasp of the tone, the characters have many shortcomings, the main story...

      F*ck off, You'll be ok!

      I don't want to translate the title because it is not literal.
              I haven't watched SNL because I don't want to.
              I watched too many movies, and my vision became critical. So I wasted money on the well-reviewed movie "Guardians of the Galaxy" and only stayed for 30 minutes. I have watched this movie. After watching it, I want to write a review. The first sentence I think of is the sentence above.
              The movie doesn't use too many common twin stalks. The...

      The music is really good, but it's actually quite healing. Some places are very touching. I've seen many similar movies, but this one is not outstanding, but the overall feeling is not bad. Find a day in a bad mood to watch it, it's very...

      I don't know how dramedy's evaluation came from, this is a completely gloomy drama. Both loser settings are old-fashioned and powerful. The only motivation for a very thin plot is the interaction between the siblings (two old friends who call) - they are separated: stagnation or deterioration; together: change and improvement. Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now I can only sing the Cantonese version of Lim Tze Siang, what a...

      For the face-watching era, this one is a bit of a loss. In fact, the story is not bad, but the performance makes people unable to enter the role, especially the...

    Evaluation action

    The screenwriters of "The Skeleton Twins" Craig Johnson and Mark Hyman cleverly weave together humor, sweetness and sadness. In the film, Wegg's performance reveals sadness from his eyes, and Harder's talent for emotional transformation is also revealed. Among them, Harder's "Interstellar Ship" lipstick "Nothing Can Stop Us" is really interesting, but not frivolous. The relationship between twins is closer than most brothers and...
