hit a four-star The first two films made me feel very good. I don’t think there is anything special about this film that is worth recommending. Everywhere you can see the director working hard to dig out the remaining laughs and value of the first two films. To be honest, when watching the film, I was more like passively accepting a bowl of leftovers from the eve.
However, the director is really attentive. When we watch every American movie, we are actually repeatedly instilled with a series of strong American elements such as "freedom", "brave" and "rebellious", as crazy buying drunk. In the first two parts of the portrayal, all the above elements have been enlarged or even exaggerated.
But we seem to have overlooked a word-"pay the bill"
every madness will inevitably be accompanied by a cruel reality. Stu's teeth are gone, he is married to a prostitute, Doug is sun-dried into a dish, and Phil is considered to be. The luckiest one, so the director always asks him to make the last desperate call.
This is also the end of this series of black humor, about things that we can see in addition to sex, alcohol, and marijuana.
Isn’t it the same in life? Our choices, our experiences, and everything we have done will eventually face this result-"pay the bill."
Allen is the only one who is outside the whole movie, but it is also an indispensable or inevitable part. I think so. The director's positioning for him is-"the person who ordered an extra pizza and didn't want to pay the bill in the end." The Allen I saw was not a lunatic, but just a child who worked hard to release his own child under a strong social bondage. He did not get married or work. He was still gnawing at the age of 42 and was proud of it. I have to say that he is a director. An irony of the American Dream, in the same way, also offered a slightly negative answer: I'm crazy and proud, so I don't pay the bill.
Absurdity is of no value if it is just a joke. What I have seen in this movie are all kinds of irony,
teasing, and deep thinking: Allen is obviously a patient and doesn’t even take the death of his father seriously (on the surface ), but he was able to dig pits by himself (obviously to express his unacceptance of his father's death by madness), and his obvious loneliness and flash of pain when he mentioned his father to the little boy ( That’s why he said I’m your biological father); Stan’s chart is serious, and he is drunk but makes extremely outrageous behaviors. He is completely teasing certain classes of people without pretending to be coercive. In fact, you are crazy (being a dentist). Everyone knows what class the United States means); Phil is obviously an irresponsible swinger, but he always leads the plot and assumes the responsibility of looking for memories (it turns out that our so-called responsibilities are forced out Ah); As for Doug, such a perfect life (in the wealthy family, the bride is beautiful as a flower), but every time he faces life and death, it may even be the person who finally "pays the bill" for the hangover. You can only say, what you see Happiness may become a fragile bubble after "paying the bill."
As for the other character chow, it reflects the abstract fear and anxiety caused by the absurdity of human living conditions. Endless madness, marijuana, gold, women, only these can awaken the dead soul.
However, it is just a movie, whether it reflects the doubts and dissatisfaction of people in the western world about the nihilism and absurdity of capitalist real life, or the fear of "paying the bill" after the endless demand for resources in life, It's just entertainment after all.
I finished reading these three parts with a smile, making me miss the bad things that I and my brothers did.
Let's imagine the plot afterwards: Phil is no longer sloppy, and honestly becomes a teacher, Doug and his wife have a good baby, absolutely not cheating on the old family, Stu continues to be a dentist like a dog, or If you can make soup instead of porridge, Ellen and his fat wife might go and tie the little boy home.
Everything is back on track, continue to wait for the life of "paying the bill".
