Why give 5 stars to a film with imdb6.5 points

I watched A Pecfect Getaway again yesterday, and I still have no regrets about the 5-star rating. I spent a lot of time trying to introspect: Why would I like this imdb6.5 movie?

First of all, I admit that I am a special forces control. Nick used a bow and arrow to hunt, rowing a canoe to catch sharks, with a titanium skull in his head, rarely panicked, never shed tears, dropped a piece of his scalp and remembered to propose to his woman in the sunset. Oh my God, I really don’t understand why women are tempted to propose to men who choose to wear suits and bow ties in luxurious western restaurants! In short, Nick's figure covered in blood, mud and sweat is the most masculine moment of a man in my mind. As Gina said, really a man in full.

Secondly, it must be praised, the filming is too beautiful. Many people say that this film can be used as a promotional film for Hawaiian tourism. One can imagine how magnificent the scenery is. If chasing can occur in shabby alleys, why can't it occur in sunny beaches, sea caves, broken walls, and jungles? Away from the hustle and bustle of the concrete forest, the tranquility and ease of the holiday resort contrasts the atmosphere of danger and suspicion even more realistically and urgently.

Again, it may be due to the liking of Resident Evil, and even Milla Jovovich. Although at the beginning of the film I didn't realize that the pure face that always showed sweetness and the tough face that can be beaten in Resident Evil came from the same woman, but I just felt a little familiar. It wasn't until the climax of the plot and the slow motion of Cydney rushing towards Gina that I found out that this cold and sturdy expression is the most suitable for Milla. And Cydney, who finished speaking with Cliff on the radio in the canoe, seems to be the same as the Milla in Resident Evil - at this moment when the past has gone through danger and killing, the road ahead is still full of dangers, and he wants to accuse his fate and escape everything, lost. Eyes, betrayal corners of the mouth. This is Milla Jovovich.

Finally, the plot is still very good. Although I guessed nine out of ten from the beginning, emotionally I hope that my guess will not be fulfilled in the end: Cydney's sweetness is so sweet that it is hard not to make everyone empathize with it. Fortunately, as a suspense film, the plot of "Perfect Escape" successfully achieved a "perfect reversal". The introduction of the clue of love between Gina and Nick successfully took over the baton with sweet as the clue from Cydney. When the picture changes from black and white to color, you know, there will be many very beautiful things you can continue to look forward to. Yes, I just like happy ending.

This is why I like an imdb6.5 movie.

A Perfect Getaway quotes

  • Nick: Those boys are comin' in heavy, you might want to hang back and let 'em do their thing.

  • Cliff: So you were like Special Ops. What were you Seals? Rangers?

    Nick: Officially, I'm only allowed to say that I've been a sworn officer participating in a phase of certain missions that would make most men want to crawl up and hide inside their own assholes.

    Cydney: and unofficially?

    Nick: I'm a goddamn American Jedi. Possible title number one, by the way.

    Nick: Hey, see this? Took a frag from a Bouncing Betty. It's an antipersonnel mine. Caved in the back of my fucking head. Medevaced out to Germany. Got my skull rebuilt with space-age titanium. Can't go through a metal detector without ringing cherries, but that's cool. Let's me travel with Gilligan just about wherever I want.

    Cydney: Gilligan?

    Nick: My little buddy

    Cliff: That's some toothpick

    Nick: Here's the kicker, though. When I took that shrapnel, I never felt it. I mean, I felt the impact and I felt my backside go all wet, but no real pain. Now, maybe I don't recall the events in full. They did scoop out a little gray Spam back there, but get this. My wolf pack? They will swear that I was ambulatory for more than 17 minutes before they forced me to lie down. Tackled me. Even then I was looking to monkey-fuck a Marlboro Light. There's no nerve endings in the brain Cliff. Remember that when you write the scene.

    Cliff: Yeah, there's some really good details there.

    Gina: Yeah, he's really hard to kill.
