The film has set a black humor tone from the beginning, but in fact both of them are not in place. "Black" lies in the worries and criticism of commercial control of war, and "humor" lies in the portrayal of the male protagonist's neurotic image and the exaggerated display of that Islamic country. Generally speaking, the idea of the film is quite bold, but it lacks depth. From the beginning to the end, it is talking about a simple truth-war under economic interests; as for the funny part, the audience is always squeaking, and always squeaking. Not in place, like Cusack trotting down the corridor with a few guards, the female singer's various twitching gestures are not only not funny, but even a little boring.
As for the whole plot direction, it is also very cheesy. Whether it is the love between the hero and the heroine, or the girl's seemingly mysterious life experience, which is actually easy to guess, neither can win the viewer's curiosity about the story. It is a little strange how the two powerful actors, Marisa Tomei and Ben Kingsley, were attracted by this script? Or just rely on John Cusack's personal relationship? In any case, it would be fun to see Cusack's sister and brother appear in the same movie again. The relationship between the two must be very good. I have never seen such frequent and close cooperation between members of the Hollywood acting family.
