Before this film, I only had contact with the director’s Grand Budapest Hotel, which I also liked very much. But I don't know that the director is the same person. Therefore, when I accidentally chose to watch this film on the set-top box, I had an inexplicable sense of sight, but I couldn’t tell where it came from. It was not until I finished reading it and checked it on the Internet that I found out: [Ah~~~, it turned out to be directed by the same director. ]
When I first watched this film, I was a little intolerable with this slow-paced presentation. If it weren't for watching down while doing other things (playing with mobile phones), I might really abandon the show.
But with the advancement and development of the plot, I gradually discovered the loveliness of the characters in Xiaozhong.
For the sake of fame and hatred, selfish, paranoid, and stubborn male protagonist who refuses to obey the old,
The actual funder of the team, the realistic and snobbish wife of the boss,
The heart is higher than the sky, and the life is thinner than paper. She was abandoned by her boss and interviewed the female reporter of this bad team in her eyes with resentment.
The airline pilot who wanted to know his relatives, honest and lovely but "lost money and man",
Worried about falling out of favor, the "second middle-aged" who has been fighting with the above pilots (hehe, William Dafoe is so cute in this film),
There is also a pair of two-five-eighty-thousand, still playing his own Jeff Goblen, barely regarded as the villain?
In addition, the black brother who plays and sings, the accountant sent by the bank, the agent of the old male lead, this group of messy people, the mess that was staged, or the background of my completely layman's ocean exploration theme, actually ended up It made me cry and watched it again. After doing it for a long time, all the above are smoke bombs. What the director really wants to say is "father and son", such a simple and complicated relationship and feelings.
This is not destined to be a movie that has received so much attention, but if you are willing to calm down and eat slowly, it is definitely a masterpiece of warmth that can directly hit your heart.
More than four stars (80) and less than five stars. Recommend it to friends who are willing to accept slow-paced, long-winded, and weird-style movies.
