"You Y Shut Up"

In Lin Yutang's impression, the French have the following formulas: reality, dream, humor, sensitivity, and three equals to the French. The French are famous for their sense of humour, so French films are always so engaging, humorous and witty, with a stream of joy flowing from the lines to the actors to the scenes.
The movie "You Y Shut Up", I watched it a few years ago inadvertently, I thought it was very good at that time, I always wanted to buy the second film, and I bought it several times and sold it. Today, I saw "Shut Up You Y" and I couldn't help but want to watch it. Jean Reno's eyes were so dazzling that I couldn't resist it, so I had no choice but to spend another hour and a half reviewing it.
Overall, this review is true value, classics are classics, and humor will not lose its luster with the passage of time. I have to admire how talented this screenwriter is. He can think of the character Gangdan, who is so cute, so innocent and romantic, so stupid that people who think they are smart will be ashamed. You see, the killer Ruby, played by Jean Reno, thought of a plan to escape from prison with great effort and money. When he was about to implement it, he was easily realized by Steel Egg. A killer with a high IQ is not as good as a recognized idiot. What's wrong with this world, is there still Wang Fa?
The story of an idiot steel egg pusher Ruby completing the killing of an enemy stronger than himself is full of jokes in itself. What we think in China is a foolish person, who is a fool for a friend. This principle is especially suitable for Gangdan, whose perseverance moves the audience.
What I don't understand is that, according to Lin Yutang's opinion, the Chinese are the most similar to the French. Reality, dream, humor, sensitivity, and three equals Chinese. Why did Chinese films lose their vitality after being brilliant in the 1930s and 1940s, and briefly in the late 1980s? Is it because the Chinese film system is too tough, the screenwriter has too little power, and the director feels good about himself? Or did the director take himself too seriously? In any case, our audience is under a lot of pressure.

    In view of the failed attempts to watch it several times, the whole film felt that it was actually okay, and in the end it was really gay. It's really a very typical French film. Half of it's nonsense French humor that I don't know what to do: that kind of feeling that I know it's a joke but can't laugh it out. It's just that the plot behind it is really getting better, and many cut mirrors are really fun. . If you have to rate it, it's actually between three stars and four stars. If you can get it to the point of laughter, you will like it very much. If you can't get it at all, you will feel like two lunatics.
