"Broken Head" Reverance- Talking and laughing, the soul is dead and the head falls to the ground

Venue: Banque Scotia Theater
Event: "Dead Life" Reverance premiered

first, let’s talk about the cinema tonight, Cinema Banque Scotia, formerly known as Cinema Paramount, in several major cities in Canada There is a theater with the same name, but recently because its group company Cineplex cooperated with the banking group Banque Scotia, all of this theater line was renamed. Of course, the membership points system introduced subsequently has also been modified. Reach a certain score and you can exchange for free movie tickets. But a bit annoying in the rules is that points can only be accumulated twice a day. But the day I went to watch "Spider-Man 3" and "Shrek 3" last time, I took advantage of it: I accumulated three times in a day, and I was secretly happy...Cinema Banque Scotia is located between the McGill subway station and the Peel subway station in the most downtown area. On the famous Ste-Catherine Street in North America (Strippers and Gigolo Bars are one of the scenes, XD), except for the box office on the ground floor, 13 cinemas are divided into three floors, and there are 6 halls on the second and fourth floors. The only hall 7 in Quebec where commercial IMAX movies are shown occupies an exclusive floor. This English movie theater is completely different from another English movie theater in Downtown, AMC Forum 22. Basically, commercial blockbusters dominate the box office for a long time, while the latter has a wider selection of movies. A good example can illustrate the two. The difference in the style of the theater: Among the five nominated films for the best foreign language film at the Oscars, only "Pan's Labyrinth" is in Cinema Banque Scotia, and the other four have been placed on AMC Forum 22. Of course, another thing I like about Cinema Banque Scotia is that it has a Tim Horton coffee shop. The desserts and other foods served are still appetizing for us who have been fighting for a long time in the dark room, and those of AMC Forum 22 Rotten intestine sandwiches are really hard to swallow.

Speaking of "Broken Head", it turns out that New York and Los Angeles have already been screened on the 18th, but Canada will have to wait until this Friday, June 1st. Blaming the impact of the Canadian cinema’s inadequate control of illegal shooting...

As an employee of a multinational arms dealer, it is undoubtedly happy to go to the mountains of Hungary to participate in weekend team training. Of course, on the surface, the project looks similar to most companies around us-paintball, brainstorming...but its level of excitement is far from comparable to the arrangement of this company called Palisade Defend, btw, this arms dealer also has It's humorous enough to have this name. The Balkan scenery seems to have become this type of hot spot recently. The exterior scenery of the Hostel "Human Skin Inn" is somewhat similar to it, but there are at least femme-like fiery beauties there, and the only people who welcome the big guys here are broken and desolate. A country house full of evil spirits. In fact, from the perspective of the plot, we can guess more than half of it just by looking at a poster-this group of characters must end up being the target of the murder. The question is: How does this survival game of killing and being killed, sneak attack and anti-sneak attack, and encirclement and anti-siege unfold? How can the dog blood that satisfies our abnormal psychology be sprinkled on it to feel enjoyable? And the black humor often mixed in makes you laugh so badly, there is no time to sympathize with our victims. Just as the Star Master was stabbed by a knife and bitten by a snake one after another in "Kung Fu", who ever thought that the stars are also afraid of pain? Director and screenwriter, the guy named Christopher Smith seems to have a complete grasp of the audience’s psychology. First of all, with just a few strokes, everyone can get through the beginning of the film while laughing and cursing. It is still the character of the character. In terms of shaping, they are seated one by one, which makes the different reactions of each person when the tragedy/farce/tragedy/comedy occurs later and the final different destiny caused by it seem extraordinarily reasonable. Needless to say, there is no deep meaning, this is not the problem that this genre of movies has to solve. Putting this aside, you will find that this wonderful 90 minutes of beings is really worth seeing.

From "Shaun of the Dead" in previous years to "Broken Head" which was launched in Europe last year, and then to "Detective of the Final Thorns/Hot Fuzz" some time ago, I have always treated the British gentlemen. The impression of being more serious and lacking in humor has completely changed.

Strong recommendation: 9 points!

PS: There was also an episode today: halfway through the movie, just a few minutes after the headless corpse on the poster was splitting the house, the theater suddenly brightened and the movie was paused (this is my last two years) The first time in hundreds of movie viewing experiences), the first reaction at that time was that someone in the theater was taking pictures! It was later confirmed that it was a woman who collapsed in the field, and 7 or 8 staff members rushed to the field to escort her out of the field. Although from the perspective of my perception, this film is not top-notch, but it can also explain its bloody level. It seems that this movie, which is positioned as 13+ by Quebec, should actually be set at 17+, which may be more appropriate.
