"Killing" not only the director's skillful and well-informed scheduling, but also relies on the brilliant interpretation of the four protagonists. Judy Foster, Kate Winslet, Christopher Waltz, John C. Reilly, you can imagine the sparks splashing between them just by looking at the names. The two male protagonists are quite different in personalities, and each has its own merits. Even when Christopher plays the role of a lawyer, he has a bit of "shameless bastard" viciousness. Judy and Kate share the common characteristics of middle-class women in the United States. They are inevitably suspected of bluffing in their performances. Judy is paranoid and Kate is hypocritical. "Killing" is a 79-minute comedy film co-produced by France, Germany, Poland, and Spain. The film is directed by Roman Polanski, Judy Foster, Kate Winslet, Christopher Waltz, Starring John C. Reilly and others, it was released in Italy on September 1, 2011. The film tells the story of two pairs of parents in Brooklyn, New York, who met after their children had a fight and then had a dispute. The language confrontation involves all-encompassing topics, from family education to outlook on life, and the relationship between husband and wife, but they cannot escape the pessimistic and desperate direction. The topics seem to be mentioned inorganically, but in fact they are intertwined and matched with the rhythm of emotions. It's just right, it's not arranged randomly at all.

    The face-saving skills of the middle class seemed so false. At first, the emotions could be controlled by reason. After a few drinks, civilization ceased to exist, and the barbaric side of human nature was fully revealed. The four acting sects contributed to the most exciting drama of this year, but everyone still had the impression they had given to others in the past, and there was no fresh breakthrough, just like acting in a drama. Polanski's scene scheduling and the powerfulness of the script are impressive, four words: wonderful! ★★★★★

    No matter how the plot goes, the scene does not change! I guessed that it was adapted from a drama. I haven't laughed like this for a long time.
