Originally, I was going to see a comedy movie with a lot of laughs like "Bad Boss". But this movie is obviously not a common R-rated comedy. After watching it, I didn't find any funny jokes, but a slightly dark humorous movie.
This mode of three storylines separated and crossed is not uncommon, but there is slightly less interaction, too many lines, the director does not grasp the climax and compactness, and the typical white boss and Mexican drug lord are not innovative.
The male protagonist himself is caught in a puddle of muddy waters in Mexico, trying to get out of the predicament. Give the male lead one star for his skills, and one star for accusing the society of being unfair, especially the male lead who confided to the little beauty Sunny: Those who live by the rules are always mistreated, those who do not obey the rules, and even those who break the law are always rich . satirize this social reality. Why do I work so hard but I'm always a victim. Perhaps this is why the film is a little heavy, and there are too many unfair places in this social reality. In society, it is not always good for good people and bad for evil.
Theron and the second male have always been rogue bastards who wanted to get rid of the male lead, but were also deceived round and round. The rogue, arrogant and cheap temperament of the two people is really vividly expressed. The love triangle between the two men and the male protagonist's wife, and the love triangle between the male protagonist and the second man and his wife, is not closely related to the main plot. The director wants to take time to narrate too many things, so it is better to reflect the experience of the male protagonist in Mexico more wonderfully!
There is also the metaphor of the gorilla, quoting a sentence from the male protagonist: Why is everyone talking about the orangutan all of a sudden? The metaphor has not been played out too well. Wake up the director.
Give Theron one star for his acting skills. Although Theron's character finally escaped the punishment of the law, but looking at Theron's appearance and acting skills, he also endured this ending. But this role also shows that people always think that women's top management is based on unspoken rules and beauty.
The two young men took on the task of smuggling drugs for others.
One star for the little beauty Sunny, this little beauty is probably the only normal and eye-catching character in the whole movie, but I feel that the story lines of these two young people are completely meaningless.
Overall, it didn't meet expectations, and it wasn't worth the 100 minutes.
