Last time I couldn’t see it for the first time because of the subtitle problem. The subtitles in the version I got today turned out pretty well. After watching it, I couldn’t help but recite it again and again. This TMD is what a commercial film should have, and this TMD is what Hollywood should have. Some of the first-line standards! Nearly two hours, there is absolutely no cold scene, no cold scene! Many characters compete on the same stage, including several famous actors, who can achieve a complete balance, I really can't help but admire the director's ability! And the scene switching The transition is very smooth and there is no abruptness. What is commendable is that this film is of excellent quality in terms of action design, photography, editing, music, and plot!
In terms of action design, the real sharpness, exaggerated violence, and dreamy aesthetics , there is no shortage of it. The high-speed shooting in the narrow space in the elevator rendered the blood and force just right, and the sparks after the lights were turned off were gorgeous! Then the slaughter of the crazy trio was exaggerated and unbelievable. The development of the bloodline is very creative. I won't say more, see for yourself. And the scene where the black girl shoots the police with a .50 rifle against a chariot will definitely make you feel so good, all of them are shot directly. It was flying. Later, the aimless and crazy shooting of the two sides made people highly engaged, and I really wanted to do the same actions as the characters in the movie. In
terms of editing, because of such a huge and complicated background and lines, the director chose the segmentation wisely. Roughly 3/5 part has been describing the actions of various people, using dizzying switching to focus attention, interspersed with some plot clues, foreshadowing, small humor, and some detailed emotional descriptions. Then 1/5 It is a large collection of action scenes, one after another, all of which are too exciting, and because of the previous foreshadowing, it is equivalent to a total outbreak of contradictions. The last 1/5 is used to uncover the mystery and tell the story. It's boring, because it's cool to have fun, it's time to calm down and think about all the clues ahead.
The music is also brilliant. When ACE debuted in the restaurant, the BGM combined the prosperity of VEGAS with the ethereal Xiao of Asia, implying the pride, contradiction and sharpness of the character of ACE. The final BGM wins first in melody, and With the development of the plot at that time, the degree of fit is very high. There are also a few other songs that are also suitable for the occasion. It is one of the few western films that I want to find an OST to listen to. However, the last BGM was not included in the OST, which is a pity , I don't know who can provide the full version.
If there is any shortcomings, I personally think that it is probably the overall creativity of the plot. It is not very novel, but I don't think there is anything to be picky about. Because its detailed description is very delicate .Many people think that the plot of this film is bad, but I think it is purely inertial thinking. It seems that such a story structure and hot action performance will definitely not produce a good story, and I didn't think carefully and pay attention to the details. Let's talk about the plot, serious spoilers, people who have seen it can read and discuss with each other.

    Started to go to Green Lantern, and later found a lot of stars. Ben, Pine, Garcia, and the cheapest agent in history from a star partner - Piven, etc. The story of the film is solid, the plot is unexpected, and it is a good collection of many movie factors. Although it was confusing, in the end, everything was clear, and there were little easter eggs at the end. Even after the picture hits for a while, the plot still offers a powerful full stop. Recently, I still have a strong taste.

    The structure is a bit like Crazy Stone, with one goal attracting multiple people and eventually intertwining, leading to a play.

Smokin' Aces quotes

  • Jack Dupree: How about the Tremor brothers? Three of them; same skank mom, different deadbeat dads. They're used for that suicide-style, kamikaze shit. Heard about that dinner club in Cleveland?

    "Pistol" Pete Deeks: That got squat-fucked, shot-to-shit, slashed, and burned?

    Hollis Elmore: What happened?

    Jack Dupree: Well the Tremor brothers go rip-shit riot on the whole fucking place. Seven dead, twenty-eight wounded. Just to get this one fucking guy. In the course of the melee, one of them gets shot in the neck - he passes out. Another one catches blowback from a jammed piece - he's temporarily blinded. Third one gets a bullet lodged in his back - he can't walk. They're speed-freak, neo-Nazi assholes who read and recite Mein Kampf like it was Mother Goose. They're meaner than shit, they're dumber than hell, and these motherfuckers will go megaton at the drop of a hat.
