Embarrassment has to be serious

Watching this movie, I kept smiling from beginning to end.

The first burden comes from the comparison between plan and reality. The male protagonist who consciously has a strong attraction is actually nothing, and even gets slapped in the face.

The second burden is the handling of the chair when the male protagonist talks with Shabandar. The chair is too heavy. In order to realize his wish to sit on an equal footing with the boss, he has been trying hard to move the heavy chair, but in the end he did not succeed. Posed without admitting defeat.

The third burden is that the male protagonist brought PJ to talk about business. The halo was completely robbed by PJ, and the reality that he tried to attract attention was too real and too cute. Finally got the chair and prepared to sit down, but found that the two had already sat down at the meeting place. When he was about to take a chair over, the chair seemed to be embarrassing to him deliberately, and he didn’t want to go there, so he had to use it. The butt moves the chair, like a child.

The fourth burden is that the hotel ran out of his card. Out of desperation, he counted the change at home and turned out all the steel pegs at the bottom of the pressure box, which was really funny.

The fifth burden is a series of funny scenes that happened after he said that the glasses fell in the hotel but went to get a vase. Before his pants were lost, there was silence in the corridor. After his pants were lost, every time he went out, he would inevitably encounter a couple, the same room, the same lady, and the same waiter. All this made the picture full of humor. The serious embarrassment of the male lead adds another layer of humor. The burden of this section shook out one after another, dazzling, he and the porcelain vase are simply a natural pair. The mentality of the male protagonist is really sympathetic and contemptuous, and it can't be more real.

After that, there didn't seem to be too many similar baggages. After the Japanese joined, the focus shifted, but the Japanese did not seem to be funny. The performance at the back is rather dull, even the lion at the back is far less happy than the previous jokes. That is indeed a joy.

A serious face can also be very funny, just like Ma Sanli's cross talk, which is plain and flat, and it will come when you talk, and then you will never forget it.

There is also a sixth burden, the conversation about Colonel Major, which is really endless.

  • Martin Zaidenweber: [in goofy German accent] The baron's collection is heavily Flemish. Titian, Rubens, all the women so zaftig and heftig.

    Martin Zaidenweber: I mean, how many years can you spend looking at the Walloons? Huh?

  • PJ Puznowski: Like mama always said, if you can't tell the difference between a pig and a javelina, well, you could lose a big old chunk out of your ass.
