Ashamed, I only knew about this film because of the happy twist of "The Richest Man in Xihong City". My homepage also has film reviews of Xihong City, which can be used as a reference.
The classic lies in the plot design, where ordinary people make windfalls and face impossible challenges, what choices they will make. Just such a plot design makes people eager to watch it.
There are a few things to praise:
The structure is complete. Brewster's status as a baseball player throughout, he has always been proud of his status as an athlete, and the decision to withdraw from the election at the end of the film to continue playing baseball also appeared. (There is a political irony here, implying that the politicians are not as reliable as the athletes.) The first act is the scene of the game. Later, after being transferred to prison, it led to millions of windfalls. There are also many times in the middle of mentioning the clue of baseball. The structure is complete and flawless. of.
The rhythm is tight. There are no meaningless pieces to piece together, each plot serves the main line, the film enters the theme within 20 minutes of the opening, and the rhythm is very fast. In addition, in the subsequent execution process, there was no love spark with the heroine and some messy bridges were placed to affect the main line. (But Brewster here has a certain affinity for the heroine, perhaps because the heroine is white or something, but it doesn’t affect the plot until now.) At the end, the time counts down. Brewster and the heroine finally At a cost of $20,000, the montage technique here makes the film a little more tense.
The humor is deep. This film is full of black humor, such as satire on political election corruption, such as people's attitude toward him before and after, such as black and white issues. It is undeniable that this black male protagonist made this movie very expressive, not only in expressions and body language, but also in the show's plot.
Therefore, it is hard to say that the core attraction of this movie is how to spend all the money. The Chinese version finally uses money to save people. Compared with the elections selected by this version, the verdict is higher. I hope everyone will take a look at this version.
