The British version of To Youth

Interesting to say, I actually read the golden triangle works of Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost upside down. The first thing I saw was Hot Fuzz. After reading it, I was amazed, so I followed the clues and watched Zombie Sean and Spaced. . It should be said that these three are absolutely flawless, so The World's End, the last part of the blood and ice cream trilogy, began to look forward to it from the trailer, to the overseas release, and finally to the high-definition video.

After watching the previous two seasons of TV series and two movies, I am already familiar with the funny routines of these three people as my own family members, so the jokes and quick cuts of the same routines in this movie did not surprise me much. This is also clear in the chest, so a more important element is added to the film: a summary of the three years of cooperation before.

Of course, the first two films are also used repeatedly by many tricks, but in the final chapter, I am still full of emotion to see those familiar faces that have flashed by. The female zombie in Zombie Shaun was found, sitting next to Simon Pegg in the exact same posture as back then, and the old country man who hid guns in Hot Fuzz was found and became a person who has not been copied by aliens A retired teacher, a confused detective, and Freeman, who has been in the series for two consecutive films, were brought back and promoted to one of the five main characters. However, it can be seen from the details. Although there are three more life and death brothers than the previous two films, Simon's most iron buddy is still Nick Frost. No matter how the identities and personalities of the two change in the play, Nick will always be the one to accompany him. Simon fought to the last man.

There are also those familiar little bridges who are also laughing and weeping, the constant bumping into the wall for thousands of years, the still bloody fight scenes (only this time the blood has been changed to blue), and the cuteness that floats by. Ice Cream Packaging. However, some things have changed, and some topics that were never covered in the first two have been pulled out in this one. For the first half of the movie, I kept wondering why Simon was so obsessed with reuniting old friends, and for a split second I even started to believe the reason he made up that his mom died of cancer. But when Nick pulled up Simon's sleeve to reveal the WC's wristband, the truth was more poignant than I had guessed. Simon said, all of you have a house, a car, a home and a wife, and I only have that night, why, I thought that was the beginning of my life, I was the omnipotent Larry King, who knew that was my life end of. Such straightforward and painful lines have almost never appeared in the works of the Iron Triangle before, and people can't help but wonder if it was written for themselves: the past few years have been an extremely beautiful youthful dream, but the dream will eventually wake up, The trilogy is finally coming to an end, what will happen in the future? who knows.

Yes, who knows the future. What we do know, however, is that this is the film of Edgar Wright, Simon Pegg and Nick Frost, and they would never let it end in such sissy self-sadness and sensationalism. Sure enough, the plot took a turn for the worse, the aliens came, and then the two brothers turned their heads away in anger (do you think that Fuck Off is a bit of a galaxy space roaming style?). After that, civilization declined, human beings said goodbye to modern technology and went back to live a dirty life. The heroine married a supporting actor, and the two iron buddies did not reunite. Frustrated robot teams roam the towns as chivalrous and handsome as Indiana Jones. Yeah, who said that youth will always pass away, it is not very good to live in the dream of youth forever like this.

Hopefully, such an ending implies that there is no end to the collaboration of these three.

    The plot is too ridiculous and too cheap, okay? ? But I actually saw a trace of deep meaning and sadness from it. It's the old truth, don't drink the water of the past, don't be obsessed with the joys of the past, from a physics point of view, the flow of time will definitely cause chaos. Blindly indulge in the past, you will have the current destruction as the price of exchange!

    Simon Page, who gave up treatment, was very happy. Compared with the first two parts of the trilogy, he almost saw the label-style black humor, but some poisonous tongues and funny sense of humor were still there. From a middle-aged crisis adult chattery comedy gradually turned into a spoof and absurd science fiction disaster film, the fusion, conversion and exploration of the genre film is very unexpected, and in the end it is simply absurd. ★★★☆
