Robert Lorenz has been the producer and director of Lao Dongmu for 12 years. Lao Dongmu, at the age of 82, used the gimmick that made her last appearance on the big screen to help Lorenz's directorial debut. Profoundly, Amy Adams and Justin can work with Dongmu once in their elder years. It is not an honour. It is a pity that so many "unspeakable" have failed to achieve a masterpiece, and they almost made Dongmu even out of guarantee.
Good scripts and character settings can maximize the potential of the actors (of course, it refers to the kind that has potential, and the kind that can perform good characters is not counted). It is a pity that the characters in this game are set one by one. Superficial, from the supporting role to the protagonist, there is almost no room for the actors to get into the woods. Young scouts who are dissatisfied with the old scouts played by Dongmu must be stupid and conceited. They are so extreme that they do not observe the players at all. In the end, they are simply treated as cannon fodder. They are completely evil and evil. "The bad vulgarity of the newspaper." The draft player who is seen by the old scouts that he can't hit the curve ball must be a fat man with his head full of money and erotic pictures. The background of the characters and the story is laid out completely by a large amount of simple lines. The fat uncle keeps talking about how to have a deep friendship with the old scout. The story of Justin and the old scout back then was told casually without feeling. To show the audience that Amy Adams was afraid of being too close to people because of childhood trauma, is to let her have an ambiguous object like a reminder who kept going further and was constantly rejected, and her father's abandonment had a profound negative impact on her. She was told by herself like a psychiatrist in the Motel room like a machine gun. In the end, the partner of the firm relied on a phone call to make a conclusion...except for Dongmu. The whispering singing in front of the wife's grave and the twitching of facial muscles when she saw her daughter coming on the court... The deep emotions are all strangled in this film. In addition, the peanuts pitcher drilled out of the stone is entirely for the reversal of the final plot. Not only the geared role makes people complain about it, but logically it is also difficult to accept. The whole second half is a pair for the reversal. To be honest, the screenwriter is a post-80s, the director is also a big girl on the sedan chair, and Dongmu plays the starring role, but it doesn’t help. It’s just a soy sauce, but the soy sauce is a bit late. Not guaranteed.
It’s not appropriate to compare this film with Money Ball. The baseball here is just a shell that can’t be seen outside, like the melt-in-mouth glutinous rice paper glued to you when you buy candied haws, and Money Ball’s The adaptations of real people and real stories cannot be compared on the same level.
It is said that Aunt Sandra was here to play Dongmu's daughter, but because of the schedule issue, she turned to Amy Adams. What is the wonder of Aunt Sandra and Justin getting together? Five years younger than Ryan Reynolds I did last time...Zac Efron, Chace Crawford, etc. all expressed a lot of pressure...
