I saw a non-English version before, but I didn’t understand a lot of places, but today I finally saw the English version.

Still think the movie is pretty good.

In fact, most of the short films in the movie have the same "spoof" method, which is to introduce an "abnormal" thing and character in a realistic and normal environment to express a sense of contrast and nonsensicalness. For example, when a woman meets "Scrotum Chin" Hugh Jackman on a blind date, only she is aware of his abnormality and the others do nothing. For example, in the second short film, parents want to homeschool their son at home, so the parents take turns to play their son’s first love or campus villain. For example, the third short film girl gave her boyfriend poop instead of "make love" etc. for the first time.

This kind of "subversion" is actually not very novel, and it can be seen that part of the "laughing point" or "vomiting point" is to move closer to the "piss", but often after inserting an unreality in the middle of reality, the next step is There will be many things to deal with. In other words, where the connection between reality and non-reality is excessive, if it is handled properly, it will show its mind and appear wise.

For example, in the first short story, it was obvious that the scrotum was used to disgust people, but the scrotum contracted when the temperature was low, and Jackman said that he had a stomachache after being beaten to the scrotum. These were very delicate.

In the second story, in order to educate their son at home, the parents wrote abusive words on the refrigerator at home. The mother played the role of the son's first love. These few things seemed quite absurd and interesting. Of course, the normal shocked reaction of the neighbor is a reasonable reflection. At the end, the son is still "perverted". In fact, the son really appears at the end like a normal person. I wonder if it will increase the sense of absurdity.

The following stories are also quite spoof and irony. For example, the black coach has always emphasized that "you are black and you are playing basketball" and the girlfriend was framed by her boyfriend's cat and was finally assassinated by a cat-loving girl. For example, "Storm Girl" played truth or dare with a blind date man, and finally both embarked on the road of plastic surgery. (This is probably another way, similar to exaggerating a reality event to create a sense of drama, of course, it is more common in spoof movies.)

It is the main story, that is, those little kids, what happened in the end, I'm not too Notice.

In fact, this method of handling stories can easily give the story some "extraordinary meaning". If you want to over-interpret and or treat the story as a metaphor, it seems that every story can bring out some philosophical principles of chicken soup. This is probably the same kind of processing story. An advantage of the technique.

I still like American spoof movies, onion movies, disaster movies, screams, and so on. In fact, there are some very wise places in them, probably some reasonable transformations of life, and reasonable extensions or extensions of transformations. Maintenance, showing something close to "poetic".

Of course, it seems that the audience is easily influenced by the content of heavy tastes, and they don’t want to see this kind of movies congenitally?

I think there are some short stories in this movie, which are deep and literary, not necessarily inferior to black mirrors (Ibabe is a bit technological, of course, the movie is still selling meat), but probably The director himself is not interested in this, right.

But this director is still the producer or the director of the Stupid Funny Show? I don't know what they will do with some not-so-heavy but "creative" jokes. It now appears that most of the selected themes of this movie are quite popular. I don’t know if it can be more unique, more cult, or more poetic.
