Why it's a qualified comedy

When I was young, I liked to watch comedies, and I liked the feeling of laughing until my stomach hurts the most. But the older you get, the more you stay away from that hilarious comedy. I always feel that the current comedy has gone into a misunderstanding, that the more noisy the better, but I think that a good comedy is never about making jokes by pretending to be crazy and selling silly gags.

There is no Internet terminology that is often used in comedies now, and there is no such thing as pretending to be crazy and acting stupid. The jokes in this are natural but necessary. There are many coincidences in the arrangement of many scenes, and all kinds of coincidences trigger a laugh and are so reasonable. This is the essence of comedy. For example, the first collision of the three groups of people intersected for the first time, such as the last fatal fragment of the boss of the trio of hair thieves, such as the accidental encounter between the section chief and one of the hair thieves in the bathroom, all have a kind of strangeness. sense of irony. I have to admire the ingenuity of the director and screenwriter in designing this scene.

Another thing I have to mention is the soundtrack of the film, which is really a highlight of the film. One of the songs that has been used many times is the classic "Four Little Swans Dance". The original elegant classical music has been adapted and expressed with different musical instruments, which creates a strange feeling of joking with the picture. There were also a few times when the CRBT of the mobile phone appeared just right. The one that impressed me the most was Huang Bo's last call to the boss in the sewer. When the CRBT rang in his ear, there was a great irony.

In this comedy, I can see a lot of scenes and things that I was familiar with at the time, such as the three-person partnership fraud, such as the closure and layoff of an old company, etc. The director used a playful and relaxed way to express these very interesting at that time. Some of the social hotspots that are featured will touch your emotions little by little, and make you think something worthwhile after laughing.

When it was the hottest year, I missed it because of my stubbornness. Now I pick it up and look at it. Fortunately, it is not too late.
