It allowed me to see the extreme of Party culture

In high school, I often contacted my friends who were doing exchanges abroad. It was almost to exchange the life situation there. The most impressive thing was what he told me about the parties held by high school students. The purpose was various, in addition to birthdays and celebrations When the team wins, or is on vacation, his description is "play hard, drink high",

but I've never been abroad, so it's hard to imagine what it would be like. Watching this project X this time really opened my eyes.

In order to make his birthday higher and make himself cooler, the protagonist Thomas planned and organized a party with a few friends. Who knew that as more and more people attended that night, it became more and more complicated. , the whole scene became out of control, and finally turned into a riot, and Thomas's house was also burned off in chaos.

I heard from my friends that young Americans want to be cool, and they will seize the opportunity to show off whenever there is an occasion, so this kind of party is the most suitable for them. If you think about it, you can understand that in the environment of dazzling lights, deafening music, and alcohol, the whole person is so high that he has no idea what he is doing.

But it was a bit too much to turn into a riot in the end. This should also be the director's intention. Everything has a degree, and it will be troublesome if it exceeds it.

As for sex, Americans are also quite "mighty" - at least that's what this film conveys. But I also heard a lot of opinions, whether open or conservative (I heard that the thirteen states of New England are like this), sex is really a big and permanent topic in American culture.

The ending was quite interesting, everything was fucked up, but Thomas became really cool. The text at the end of the film also said that the students thought he was "most likely to succeed". You may question such a value orientation, but It's a cultural difference, everyone in the Yankees seems to be cool, just like everyone wanted to be "three good students" when we were very young - this is not to belittle something to elevate something, just want to say something different Cultural value systems make different people - what am I talking about? ?

Anyway, this film is very cool, it will definitely be an eye-opener for friends who want to experience party culture like me.

    It's not a big deal to play over the party, the movie is boring like this.

    2012.06.17 Project.X.2012.Extended.720p.BluRay.x264.DTS-Wiki Another first-person film after the Cloverfield file, with a very different feeling. This guy Dax Flame appeared at the same time in the two films I watched today, and these two are his only two works. . .
