Watching four single, non-celibate middle-aged men rely on alcohol to find their passion in life is both laughable and empathetic. Uncle Mai really doesn't look like a frustrated middle-aged decadent man, but he really does act like him.

Three-and-a-half-star, it blends straight men's mid-life crisis, alcoholism and Kierkegaard's existential philosophy into a cocktail that is uniquely Danish and the director's personal flavor. The hand-held shaking mirror still has the rhyme of "Dogma 95", and the typed subtitles and transitions are very contemporary and fit the characteristics of (pseudo) thesis films. A group of middle-aged men want to keep their blood alcohol concentration at 0.05% when they work during the day, but this kind of control and calculation will eventually lead to out of control and indulgence. The long-term effects of alcohol will only stun the sanity. At the end, although Uncle Mai's wild dance is strong enough to fly, and it can also make people vaguely experience the Dionysian spirit of recognition and life-affirming advocated by Nietzsche, it is still broken from the previous story, and it feels like stepping on the air, which is a pity .
