When I heard that the film was going to be a sequel, I felt that it was full of expectations and some doubts. Of course, I look forward to it because the first one is too exciting, and I think it's a great blessing to see such a vulgar comedy again; I suspect it is also because the first one is too exciting and the story is so complete, and I am a little worried about how to shoot the second one.
The most successful unscrupulous comedy series in recent years should have been "The Hangover", but after the successful first, both sequels have been questioned one after another. "The Hangover 2" was criticized for not being enterprising; while "The Hangover 3" was too ridiculous for the sake of innovation, completely deviating from the theme of "hangover". "Evil Boss", which has followed the same route as "The Hangover", also faces the same dilemma. Its sequel takes a route that is close to the compromise between the two sequels of "The Hangover": while avoiding repeating the story framework of the previous game, it also follows In addition to his stupid style, the villain's setting barely meets the standards of "evil boss". I personally think that in terms of sincerity, this film is better than the sequel "The Hangover 2".
The story of this film is about three diaosi male protagonists who have no bosses to kill decide to be their own bosses and meet Jack Klein. The latter, based on his experience working in the CIA, carefully arranged a kidnapping case and participated in this. In the plan, the protagonists can make a fortune. The three protagonists who are fascinated by money went to consult the noble and glamorous senior crime expert Mazel Faker Jones, and they were complained (here Jason Bateman was ridiculed as Jane Fonda, who appeared in this year’s film He played his mother in "Seven Days Sunny," coincidentally, I just watched that movie and then watched it again). In the end, the profiteers, who were barely the bosses of the three protagonists, were tragically killed. The protagonists were in danger, thanks to the wit and brave Mazel Faker Jones who came forward to rescue... In the end, Mazel Fa, who became rich Kerr Jones showed his wayward side. The actions taken by the rich second generation in the film can be easily guessed from the beginning. The reason why the film was given five stars is mainly because of Katy Perry's song. The style is the same as that of the previous work, and the humble gadgets at the critical moment have become the key to turning things around. Unexpectedly, it is reasonable that the small props are reversed.
Because of the similar positioning, the film cannot avoid the comparison with "The Hangover", including me. Even the names of the three leading actors of "The Hangover" appear in the "Marry, f[蜂] in the trailer. ck, kill" in the game. However, I think there is another movie that is more comparable to this film, that is, the movie "The Strong Men Robber" filmed by Michael Bay last year. The movie was named "American Partner" by me in another Chinese name. It seems that this name is also very suitable for this film. Both films express a helpless and even joking attitude towards the American dream. In this film, they simply borrowed from Chris Pine to say, "American dream is made in China." At first it sounded funny, but Thinking about it, you can feel a hint of complaint. In addition to the element of the American dream, the protagonists of the two films have adopted the method of kidnapping to pursue their dreams, but the end is very different. In contrast, of course, this film requires a lot of sunshine.
The three protagonists continue their setting in the previous episode and carry it forward. Dale is responsible for stupidity, Kurt is responsible for cheapness, and Nick is responsible for complaining. As soon as the bathing bridge comes up, a fun and vulgar audience like me can enter the state in the shortest time. I myself have a low point of laughter, so this movie seems to me to be very burdened, so I won’t list them one by one, just say something that I am particularly impressed with. Racist stalks really never get bored. Funny is to base the happiness of the audience on the pain of the ridiculed. It's just that the United States pays attention to political correctness, so in order to avoid trouble, movies always show a posture of introspection every time they use a racist stalk. In fact, this kind of wanting to cover up is just a strong complaint, on the contrary, it makes the racism color stronger and the smile fruit is stronger.
The supporting characters are a major attraction of this series. The return of these characters is the best gift for the audience, especially Kevin Spacey, which is a fucking surprise. When the protagonists later learned all kinds of accents in a weird tone, it would be more effective if he was around. Thinking about it this way, there are quite a few presidents in this film. In addition to him, there is also the one I have mentioned repeatedly that has the same name as me. Not only did he come by himself, he also pulled the old friend who taught him to handgun.
Speaking of the friendship of the same name, the role played by the new blood Chris Pine in this episode happens to be the same as my English name in the three-dimensional world. It seems that the name given in the movie is often not a good thing. In "Killer Joe", the one who seduced other people's wives and the photo of Tintin was circulated throughout the house by Matthew McConaughey. When I first went to school that year, I introduced myself to the local ghosts and told them that I still have an English name out of good intentions, so that they wouldn't be awkward when they read my Chinese name. As a result, the other party laughed loudly after hearing the name. Asking the reason, I replied that in this country where rabbits shit, a name like mine is too old to be used by many people. The implication is that such a name here is very second-rate. Later, I went around and found that the name was not as popular as they said, and many Wang Xingren had these three letters engraved on their collars. Thinking about it this way, for those ghosts, this name is roughly equivalent to our domestic "prosperity."
Finally, if there are three protagonists in the film to play the game, my choice is Marry Dale, Fuck Nick, Kill Kurt.
