"Give and Gain": A bold alternative American dream

Michael Bay, who is tired of filming "Transformers", finally has a chance to take a breather and play some alternative flower work. Find a true story book, organize three big muscular men to perform a variety of kidnapping thrillers with comedy and action. In American movies, true story adaptation is a hot genre. No matter it is true or false, and no matter how badly the face is changed, as long as it is attached to the "true story", there will be a large group of diehards enthusiastically pursued, for example, the old man is one of them. Because the old man firmly believes that true stories will always exceed the imagination of ordinary people. The truth is always more absurd than the novel. People make fictional stories always follow a certain logic, while real events always surpass all logical thinking. This is the most attractive aspect of the true story.

As for the highlights of the film, apart from the short-lived glamorous scenes, the three large men show various muscle angles throughout the whole process, which will definitely feast the eyes of the meat-loving audience. The chocolate man Anthony McKay is a bit of a follower, Dawn Johnson is like a brainless person, but Mark Wahlberg is the most ferocious, and he is scolded all over the place. After "The Fighter" Suddenly, Volberg, the big man of the run four, suddenly slammed his muscles, like a hormone, and once again wielded the force of an action movie. Is it because the recent appearances of the senior action teams have made the young people unconvinced! In any case, Dawn Johnson’s five-star muscle, Wahlberg’s crazy curses, and Anthony McKay’s demos eventually led to the 63-year-old veteran Ed Harris, who immediately settled. The arrogance of young people. It can only be said that ginger is still old and spicy, so I can't accept it.

As for the plot of the film, at a time when the American theme is so high, counter-terrorism is a pressure cooker, but this film goes against the trend, taking smashing and looting as the essence of the "American Dream", and it also contains real racially discriminatory remarks. It's also expected that the film will not receive positive reviews from media bigwigs. But being evaluated by the Wall Street Journal as "unpleasant freaks (Freaks)" is still a bit unexpected. Is it possible that "freaks" like the "Hangover" and "Spring Break" are the Americans? ! Don’t Americans have always advocated boldness as the rule of life! Of course, Americans who are proud of their evil tastes still have a bottom line. No matter how unscrupulous they are, it is absolutely not allowed to vilify their country.
