It’s a bit late to recommend, but let’s talk about the "Gentlemen" that Guy Ritchie will return in the beginning of 2020! Guy Ritchie, the legendary "kneel and stand", is back! Currently still in Cineplex.
Did Guy Ritchie stand up this time? The answer is yes!
"Gentlemen", which is slightly heavier and full of passion, will definitely make you fall in love with Charlie Hannum.
This time the story is no longer about gamblers and ruffians, but "gentlemen"! That is, handsome guys in suits, standing talking, standing fighting, standing doing things!
Is MV+ commercial blockbuster anti-movie? !
Guy Ritchie made his debut in the MV+ commercials in his early years. Regarding stylized images, fragmented editing, and slow-motion shots, I don’t know how many gameplays he has tried. In short, he has to play such tricks every time in his movies.
It is said that the filming of MV+ commercials is actually anti-movie, but Guy Ritchie wants to insert an advertisement and MV show off in the film, and he said that it is to integrate popular culture into the film. If you say it badly, there will be side effects, so you can't abuse it.
In Guy Ritchie's video, especially the pouring beer and grilling steak in the commercials, they can all react with the advancement of the plot and the characters' hearts.
This time, "Gentlemen" Matthew McConaughey, as the main protagonist, opened the first act, which was simply a big beer commercial. And between Hugh Grant and Charlie Hannum's conversation, there are always shots of grilling steak, which is full of fun.
From the night when the four brothers of "Two Smoking Guns" were drunk, to the robbery scene in the opening scene of "Smuggling and Robbery", the flip of the camera is the climax of his film and the stimulant for the audience.
The characters are introduced one by one in the form of animated pictures, starting with "Stealing and Robbery", and this time "Gentlemen" is no exception. What's interesting is that with such a dynamic introduction, you will see in advance the peak state of the character in the next hour, that is, the director will spoil you in advance! Later, I saw repetitive actions in the film, but there was a subtle feeling of overlapping memories and images.
Multi-line narrative + circular narrative + multi-layer narrative
After the end of the first act of "Gentlemen" motivational event, the film began the third-person narration mode. What is interesting is that the entire "Gentlemen" will be unfolded through this person's narration, and the key prop that he holds- is The script of this film.
This time Guy Ritchie played screenwriting and film stalking. When Hugh Grant began to tell, Guy Ritchie also inserted the effects of early film screenings. Turn the story of the movie into a play in the play, let Fletcher played by Hugh Grant continue to tell his story and the truth, and finally even talked about the film studio.
As you can imagine, he is Guy Ritchie himself! It’s a chaotic story—multi-line characters, unbelievable random events strung together, and the boss pays the money to start filming!
Since the story and the truth involve a profound and extensive, Fletcher played by Hugh Grant is ready to knock a lot of money on Ray played by Charlie Hannum! The story mainly revolves around the boss of Ray, the big boss Mickey Pearson played by Matthew McConaughey.
The film also starts with his monologue and ends with his monologue. The play is very neat!
The movie has core characters, the boss Mickey and the housekeeper Ray, as well as more side characters, that is, different interest groups, such as the big chaebol, the new Asian gangsters who are going to make their heads, and the brothers in the boxing gym.
Brotherhood, mentorship and husband and wife partners all fly together!
This time, "Gentlemen" has a different topic of mouth escape, because everyone can speak but not hands. It causes it to burst occasionally when you do it, so don’t force me, or you will be unlucky!
Especially when Ray, the most gentleman, was finally forced to pull out his submachine gun, the audience really burst into laughter. As the leader of Mickey's boss, his cuteness at the time of his mistakes and his basic feeling of wearing a seat belt for the boss is really touching.
The neurotic boss Mickey played by Matthew this time and the refined Ray have formed a sharp personality contrast. The core character is no longer a relationship between a big brother and a stupid little brother, but two extremely savvy people, using their own methods to resolve the enemy and The story of the crisis.
Camera and web video as the ultimate weapon
The biggest highlight of the film is that Guy Ritchie has progressively added elements of online video and Go Pro. The previous movie weapons are love toys, knives, guns and sticks. This time "Gentlemen" has added the most special one, which is a mobile phone, Go Pro and DV.
It is simply a high-level black, that is, to deal with the big bad guys, you don't need to use a knife to grab it! It's 2020! Just use the camera to let you finish! Absolutely gentleman!
At the same time, Guy Ritchie also put a lot of stalks on the Internet, making the gangsters suffer from the Internet, and the daily public relations crisis!
Guy Ritchie is definitely a forward explorer of images and media. He is not obsessed with gunfights and underworld, he is obsessed with the charm of current society and street culture.
Of course, his favorite plots of "pig's nest" and "boxing" must be indispensable. The most fascinating characters in the film are Coach played by Colin Farrell in the British plaid suit, and a group of black boxers led by him. Hand brother. I really want to give a thumbs up to the costume design of "Gentlemen"!
Guy Ritchie’s ingenuity may lie in his madness, flips, and the mix and match of music, which makes his movies full of information and surprises in the next second. This is an annual cool film that is very worthy of the second brush. Finally, I also recommend the original soundtrack of "Gentlemen".
In 2020, Xiao Xuan Er Ji
