After watching this film, you may sigh: Damn! Kevin Spacey is indeed a good actor! It was and still is. No matter whether he has a chance to come back in the future, no matter what nasty things he has done, looking at him who quickly speaks a lot of lines on the camera, with ease, that kind of composure and self-confidence, there is really no way to be wrong, maybe never again Sorry to not see him anymore. He often plays cunning and cunning roles. To be honest, I really can't think of anyone who can replace him for a while.
The film has also been implicated to some extent because of his reasons, and there is almost no publicity, only limited theaters and online on-demand. But in fact, the performances of Taron Egerton, Ansel Elgort, and Kevin Spacey in the film are all breakthroughs. In particular, the two young actors both acted in genres that they usually seldom perform, but they showed their strengths to a certain extent. It is obvious that the choice of these two actors is very suitable for the characters of the characters, but both bring Surprise, prove that baby-faced actors can also play tough roles!
The film tells the story of two young people in Los Angeles who were not originally rich, but because they went to a private high school with rich people, they couldn't resist the temptation. They hoped to take shortcuts and make a lot of money. beyond their control. . . Kind of like a gossip girl, but with Beverly Hills as the background.
The first half of the film is really eye-catching, the famous restaurants in Los Angeles, the palm trees, the life of rich children in Beverly Hills, the two beautiful male protagonists and the girls they like. . . Add in a eloquent Kevin Spacey, and it all looks ambitious. Then the story took an unexpected turn, and it got out of hand and went crazy. Taron and Ansel showed their dark side for the first time in the film. Hope to see the two play more deceptive or disguised roles in the future. This is an adaptation of a real event to make it even more alarming. It's a living, one-second journey from heaven to hell.
The advantage of this film is that it makes this billion-dollar youth club look really attractive, but the problem is that the rhythm of the film is not right, especially in the first half, the introduction of characters, failed to make it feel like Social Network. The second half is relatively interesting and absurd. But the story is still worth watching.
I don't know why, the only movie I remember so far with Los Angeles as the background, the story is as beautiful as the sun here is only "La La Land" (some people may still think it is a tragedy), and the rest are "sins" under the sun. All kinds of beauty are deceptive, including suits and shoes, handsome Taron and Ansel, put them in this city, and they also fell. . . .
PS: I also learned that in the 1980s, the Spago restaurant was still a famous high-end club where children from rich families gathered. The scene of long queues outside every day in the film no longer exists today. Spago is now a relatively private, quiet restaurant. But there are still many celebrities patronizing and the food is delicious. Other famous Los Angeles restaurants mentioned in the film are Yamashiro and Mr Chow
