A failed sibling love

Recently, I watched the new movie "the lucky one" by the American romance master Nicolas Sparks. The plot is still the same as those before. I don’t know if it was affected by 9/11 or the influence of American foreign policy. Many of the master’s novels have written the male protagonists as soldiers. It's the legendary ptsd (Is it written like this?) Anyway, I was traumatized in my heart, and then I met a most ordinary girl somewhere in the United States, and the trauma was so slowly healed. Of course, in the so-called romance, something has to happen in the middle, what family objections ~ what self-dedication ~ what ex-husband troubles, and so on.

In the lucky one, the protagonist played by zac survived the missile bombing because he found a photo of the heroine on the battlefield. Then he returned to China and couldn't adapt to life. He almost choked his nephew, etc., and then became obsessed with searching. The story of the person in the picture. Of course, what I want to discuss is not this, but the choice of the male and female protagonists: zac efron and taylor schilling are a complete failure. If the two are taken apart, I can say that it is a good choice, but it is really not good to put them together~ Taylor is simply someone's mother, so it's a complete drama. Think about the castings of the previous nicolas movies are very good, whether it is ryan gosling and rachel macadams, or the combination of channing tatum and amanda seyfried, they are all very good, and it is no surprise that all four of them are starring in these romances. Be more active after the show.

If the director's purpose is to praise zac and taylor, it is estimated that this time it will fail. The blond and blue-eyed zac efron was really not very suitable for this kind of over-man, and then muscular role. The previous bact to 17 was still good, but this so-called transformation is not very suitable. For the little-known taylor, it was even more terrible. There is no amazing and smart of Rachel back then, nor the temperament of a girl next door like Amanda. Although the protagonist in the original book is a mother of a child, there are also a lot of actors who can act this mother to life! So until I finished reading it, I really questioned if Zac hadn't picked up her photo and helped him survive, would the two of them spark off? Can’t help but think that zeta-jones played the rebound that year. Is this a typical sibling love? The image of the hot mom is a good one~

So a good script also requires an actor with a suitable appearance. Casting is one of the factors that make or fail a movie, otherwise the best script is a waste. A terribly unsuccessful relationship between sister and brother, of course nothing at the box office has improved!

    [2012\8\20] Let Mickey Mouse idol play a calm adult or a retired Marine Corps PTSD patient is as unrealistic as catching a pig up a tree, if the expressionless face is called calm, then Zac Efron is really acting Not ordinary calm! In order to prove that the male and female protagonists of adult films take off their pants everywhere, inexplicably destroying the male and female protagonists as their survival goal, their ex-husbands eventually died inexplicably. This film is really vulgar.

    Such a perfect man repairs various machines during the day and repairs his wife at night.
