Uncle Pa's Dinner

Uncle Pa’s films since "The Line of Fire" have rarely satisfied me. The line of Fire has flowed distressingly old, and the subsequent films have been out of control. Most of them are the images of the fathers of the old police officers, old gangsters and old agents. Rich experience, strategizing, and witty humor are actually continuing the success of "Scent of a Woman". Of course, he in "The Traitor" seems to want to seek a small breakthrough, but his old age is as profound as his wrinkles. It seems that all his residual heat has been played out in the final passionate speech of "Scent of a Woman". If I want to go beyond my mind, I have more than enough energy, but I have to continue to rely on the old to sell the old, and use bad movies to make some home in the difficult Hollywood.

It’s probably the only highlight of the film to let the 囧boy Colin Farrell come to play with Uncle Pa. Farrell’s acting skills are actually good. He showed his rich expression as early as in the horror phone booth, but it’s a pity that "In Bruges" , My impression of him stays entirely on that embarrassing face, I just want to laugh when I see his frowning brows, it’s not for spying at all, not to mention Brosnan and Matt Damon, even Agents like Brother Tom who rely on cheeks to eat are more professional than him.

There is no shortage of classics for young and old in Hollywood. Of course, what I admire most is Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt’s "Seven Deadly Sins". You can see that this film is just to make Uncle Pa alone.

Not much else to say, no matter what, Uncle Pa is still one of my favorite men, I hope he can make another delicacy in his own dinner party.

    Today's spy movies really have nothing new at all, and they have to confuse people with chicken and egg, and Pacino is in vain.

    What you see, what you hear, nothing is what it is seemed. Colin Farrell needs to be so handsome~~
