Black to fly

Do you think it's a reasoning movie? Actually it is a comedy. Do you think it's a comedy? Actually it is a satire. Do you think it is a satire? In fact, it is still a reasoning film. The old movie Guaiyan brought me back to the feeling of reading the rules of the famous detective at the beginning. I even wonder if Keigo Higashino was inspired by this movie when he wrote the rules. This film flew up all kinds of detective novels in black: the mysterious atmosphere, the broken down car, the detective who received the letter without a stamp on the envelope, the blind butler, the dumb cook, everyone and the dead There is a "past", black history, mutual talk, and even the final multi-layer reversal, which is all very interesting and full of sense of sight. The five "detectives" in the film have also hacked the famous detectives of the past. The British detective who pretends to be a gentleman, the French-speaking Belgian, the old maiden and her nanny, and the old Chinese detective who adopted Japanese adopted children are the most funny. It was a "tough guy" detective who was full of foul language and shot at a female assistant with a blond hair (finally found gay 2333). There are too many interesting stories in the film, and the reasoning can only be said to be condiments. In the end, the murderer's "accusation" of the detective novel is heartily and heartily, simply delightful. At the same time, the case can be regarded as round, without losing the nature of reasoning. I gave full marks and had a pleasant hour and a half. At the same time solemnly Amway, it's really super fun.

    Detective mystery fiction fans make big complaints and spoof comedies. Peter Sellers also joined. A must-see for reasoning enthusiasts. Ah, and Capote's cameo

    Great! Masterpiece! How did a director who didn't have a dazzling career cobble together great writer Capote, Cassavetes queen actor Peter Falk, Oscar Venice actor Alec Guinness, "Frankenstein's Bride" Elle Sharan Chester, Oscar-winning actor David Niven, comedian Peter Sellers, British national treasure Maggie? The movie's efforts in nonsensical comedy and detective suspense are very good, but it is the strange atmosphere of the suffocated person's bladder that really swells. The Japanese guy is handsome and handsome, Peter Sellers's Wang is too unfriendly to the Chinese, with a golden dragon in a long red coat, a strange top with flower lings, narrow eyes, thin eyebrows, a mustache, zombie skin color, awkward accent, mistakes The grammar and decadent concepts are clearly alluding to Fu Manchu. The stereotype elements are beyond the standard, but it is the best character created.

Murder by Death quotes

  • Willie Wang: [DELETED SCENE, RESTORED FOR TELEVISION - Willie rejoins the others after covering up Twain's body] ... I can't believe you missed it, Pop. The world's five greatest living detectives, and not one of you noticed that *Twain was clutching a note in his hand!*

    Sidney Wang: Give it to me.

    Willie Wang: Oh, no; it's mine.

    Milo Perrier: Oh, give it to your father, you idiot!

    Willie Wang: [gloating] "Idiot?" We'll see who's the idiot, Mr. Perrier! The $1 million goes to whoever solves the crime, and that could be me just as easily as you! I've got more brains than my father gives me credit for! "#3 Adopted Son?" I'm sick and tired of being just your #3 Adopted Son. I'm *Willie Wang, Young Detective!* This clue belongs to me, and nobody's getting it from me, you understand? Nobody...!

    Sam Diamond: [with his gun leveled at Willie's head] Better stand back, Tess. I don't want you to get hurt when the bullet comes out his other ear.

    [takes the note and reads]

    Sam Diamond: "Please call dairy and cancel future deliveries of milk; Lionel Twain deceased."

    [hands back the note]

    Sam Diamond: So much for your clue, kid.

    Willie Wang: [very sheepish] Uhm... Sorry about that, Dad.

  • Willie Wang: Some fog, eh, Pop?

    Sidney Wang: I've already heard the weather report. Drive, please.

    Willie Wang: It's as thick as pea soup. Not a soul around for miles. Know what l think? Perfect place for a murder.

    Sidney Wang: Conversation like television set on honeymoon: unnecessary.

    Willie Wang: Where are we going, anyway, Pop? Who is this Mr. Twain? What'd he mean, "dinner and a murder"?

    Sidney Wang: Questions like athlete's foot: After a while, very irritating. To stop car, please.

    Willie Wang: What's wrong?

    Sidney Wang: Stop car, please. Shut engine off, please. Listen.

    Willie Wang: I don't hear nothing. What do you hear?

    Sidney Wang: Double negative and dog.
