Produced by Paramount, "Bakis in the Eyes of the Lover" director Michael Showalter and Pakistani actor Kumail Nanjiani work together again, Netflix's latest "Walking Lovebirds" fills the gap between recent comedy films, a couple planning to divorce Inadvertently involved in a murder case, in order to avoid suspicion, they must protect their lives while cooperating to investigate the truth. The story is simple and clear, and many sparks collide with the discord between the characters and values ​​of the happy enemy, which is expected. Weird characters emerge in an endless stream, just for Bo Jun's smile.

Kumail Nanjiani jumped from a comedian to the ramble of the famous director Woody Allen. It can be said that the same field with the equally rude Issa Rae can be said to be under fire. Whether they are going deep into the tiger's den, being shot in the temple, or participating in a game show, the two continue to fight. Mouth cannon is an inappropriate joke, first denying the crime to law enforcement officers, and then repeating the crimes committed by Jiazhen as a child, it is a joke of eating honest bean paste buns.

There are no villains who show their teeth and claws, and there is no scheming calculation. The husband and wife are kidnapped. Space, direct big punishment and big punishment. The husband and wife fight wildly and successfully force a villain to provide clues. It is a comedy design that successfully uses the character composition.

The riddles in the movie are too cliché and can be ignored. The cult that emerged at the end is not a traditional cult, but a group of wealthy people who are obsessed with their desires. The "political correctness" of the comedy world, the real love is as bitter and incomprehensible as an encyclopedia, but the movie is the least to show, and more communication is the only way for couples to stay new for a long time.

Rating: 6/10
