"Catch people game"-a carnival game of a group of old men

Imagine a picture, when you and your customers are talking endlessly in the company. Suddenly a figure appeared in the corner and leaped towards you, interrupting the conversation between you. How would you react? What if I told you that every year from now on, there will be a group of "psychopathy" with super perseverance coming towards you?

An article in the Wall Street Journal in 2013 described a group of friends who had played a game of arresting people for 23 years after graduating from school to entering work. Based on the inspiration of this real event, director Jeff Tomcic adapted it as "The Game of Catch People" . Of course, this game is far less scary than the above mentioned, it only lasts one month per year (still scary).

It is said that the feelings of childhood are the purest, without any impurities, and friendship is also a truth. My friends were keen to play a game when they were young, and those who were touched by their hands had to find ways to touch other people. Otherwise, after the specified time, the person who hasn't met others is like being labeled "the worst of the year".

When I was young, it was very easy to catch people, as long as you run fast. But when they grow up, they really use all kinds of methods to arrest people. Hoagie, who owns a veterinary clinic, wants to apply for a cleaner. She talks nonsense and successfully persuades a bewildered interviewer.

It turned out that his target was Callahan, pretending to be a cleaner, he successfully appeared in front of the boss, scared Callahan "heroic" possession, took a chair and tried to break the glass to escape.

Of course, Callahan failed, because the glass is...explosive..., haha.

And here Randy, who is confused all day long on the sofa, is going to heaven:

Seemingly mourning his wife seriously:

I was slapped in the face by the old father immediately (hey, as for divorce):

After a great battle, the three men propose a truce and unite with the black brother Sable.

Because they have a common "enemy" Jerry, he is simply a devil, no one can catch him (of course, Hawkeye can be caught by a group of you mortals).

Facts have proved that Jerry and them are indeed not at the same level. They were completely crushed by the leap, and the black brothers also contributed their entire ass (or leopard...print...).

The film unfolded during the siege of Jerry.

The game of catching people seems to be a naive and extremely popular game among teenagers. After all, when the teenagers have grown up and become "mature" adults, friends will gradually drift away, and they will be immersed in the world, making it difficult to have their original intentions.

But this is the incredible part of this story, as one of the old friends said: "It makes us meet, like brothers, and we form a strong bond."

The last easter egg of the film, the real uncles of the ten team debut (seeing these gray-haired uncles are inexplicably moved...)

    The plot itself is a very old-fashioned American light comedy, and even the values ​​of the propaganda are a bit old-fashioned. But at the last moment when the real person left the country, I still couldn't avoid tears. I played together until old age. With such a group of friends, I have no regrets in this life.
