See once and laugh once

I saw this movie a few years ago, and I was so stunned with laughter at the time, but now I watch it again, and it still has the same charm back then. Not only is the plot highly capable throughout, its composition, editing, and music are really classics, and it's almost funny to the bones.

The foreshadowing of the mattress and the homophonic sound of the roof make the audience absolutely impossible to guess in advance, but it is also reasonable, showing the superb screenwriting skills. As soon as Tiger came out, the audience could feel what a crazy night they had spent. Moreover, this beast has caused several incredible laughs, such as peeing, feeding meat, singing and playing lulla for it, in the elevator, in the road, and in the surveillance video. Picture. The appearance of the king of beasts is really not disappointing.

In an impressive composition, they were holding their baby in the elevator, and they were full of doubts about all the crazy scenes they saw when they woke up. Stu was in hysterics, and the other two people didn't even want to talk listlessly. In terms of form and content, this should have been a narrow, depressing and irritating shot, but when Allen held the baby and tilted to the left, the balance of the composition was broken, and the picture instantly became funny.

The speed of editing is also one of the sources of laughter. They thought it was Doug in the trunk, and after opening it excitedly, they directly cut a shot of a naked man running wild. The third shot connected the opened trunk, the three people who were knocked to the ground and the naked man running wild. I laughed again when I took the screenshot. Although I know what will happen, how can I not laugh when these three shots are put together.

At various stages of the story, there have been many soundtracks, the who let the dogs out at the beginning, and Stu's lullaby adapted for the tiger, which intensified the joy of the shots and editing. In terms of lines, Alan speaks the most, and his brain circuit is amazing, contributing the most verses in the whole article. Between World War II and his grandfather's death, who knew that there was a skiing accident behind him, it naturally reversed the frustrating and uneasy atmosphere of the scene.

The laughs throughout the article are extremely dense, and the performances of the actors are very exciting. The whole movie is not only well produced, but more importantly, the form and theme complement each other, creating an effect that is larger than part of the overall.
