The movie has been downloaded on the Internet as early as three months ago. The name of the movie is not new, and the brief introduction of the story is also very stereotyped and very old-fashioned. A few days ago, I watched this movie as a recent hot comedy recommendation on the website, so I thought I might as well watch it.
The content of the story is: "The heroine saw the magazine saying that if the girl had had a relationship with 20 boyfriends, she would become a leftover girl. She couldn't marry, so she became anxious and looked back for 20 boyfriends in the past. At this time, her neighbors —An unreliable boy appeared and helped him find these men on the Internet and date the heroine. After repeated frustrations, the male neighbor and the heroine passed a naked basketball game and diving performance, as if they were wiped out The spark of love. At this moment, among the 20 ex-boyfriends, the one with the best family background appeared. The heroine fell into the arms of the rich man, and finally she repented and drove madly to find her male neighbor. The last two were happy. Hug together..." After
watching the movie, I had a few feelings and made a brief comment.
1. Storyline: Very old-fashioned.
Such a struggling to find a boyfriend, after all the hardships, and finally found that the most favorite is not far away but around the plot structure, many, many years ago, the age of cabbage potatoes has been there... I said this is it. Nothing new is already a very objective and kind evaluation. I think no matter who it is, you can guess at the beginning of the movie that the heroine and the male neighbor will eventually come together.
2. Actor's lines: lack of punch line.
Such a movie that has been patterned in the plot structure, if you want to make people’s eyes shine and be different, if the lines can have some philosophical aphorisms or humorous language may be able to improve the movie, but unfortunately, the view After the movie, there are almost no lines that can be remembered. There are comments that this movie is a comedy, but I hardly laughed a lot, occasionally laughed, such as the heroine moving a table in the Washington library.
3. Location framing: there are bright spots.
What I think is pretty good in this movie is the location shooting. For example, at the beginning of the show, the heroine walks on the streets of Boston and sees the prosperous business of the streets of the United States; the heroine is looking for a boyfriend and walks into someone else’s home and sees the American community; in Miami’s journey in Washington, I saw the tropical atmosphere of the American South and the sense of solemnity given by the political center; at the final stage, I saw the pattern and process of weddings held in the United States.
The overall feeling is that if this film is scored, it will pass 60 points.
