In the film, Jack Black is still playing the role of the kind of nervous disconnection. You can see him flipping through the barbed wire of the power plant with his fat buttocks, and relying on the camouflage suit he designed during the patrolling inspection. It blends into the background of the barbed wire like a chameleon, and you know this is a gifted child. Although he can only drink cheap beer and eat sandwiches at Fletcher's video shop with his brother, Jomia Farrow. But this still can't let his optimistic and bloody nature be affected in the slightest. Of course, the idea for a copycat movie came from Jack, but the fat guy's role as a superhero has undoubtedly fulfilled the great copycat dream of his partner. Of course, in the plot where Jack was struck by high-voltage electricity and magnetized, I had to admire the screenwriter's imagination. Strictly speaking, the film is not a mortal song that completely sings the dreams of mortals, because neither Jack nor Farrow has any intention of becoming a grassroots hero like Billy Bob Thornton. From this point of view, this film follows a comedy style, and the Hollywood family carnival's earning routine seems to be better reflected in this film. After all, the idea of watching a feature film with a serious theme now seems to be a film festival judge and a small group of literary and artistic youths. patent.
Of course, the most classic shots in the film are those that mimic classic remakes. In the beginning, they remade "Ghostbusters" and "Forward Moment 2", I can't imagine that the role played by Fat Jack is actually Jackie Chan, people have to admire and be surprised by the so-called youthful vitality and energy of these people, so , in "King Kong", King Kong climbing the stairs, the blue sky shot from the sky, and "Men in Black" driving on the top of the tunnel have become possible. We can see the fat guy with his fat hips wearing an American flag printed on it. His big-flowered pants were sweating and waving his fists, as if he had become "King Ali", and he could also be seen holding a hair dryer and imitating "Robocop" with his hands and feet dancing. If their production plan at the beginning was just because an accidental victory made them think it was a way to make money, then the forced demolition that Fletcher encountered later became the driving force for their crazy remake. And all this turned into a cold water when Sigourney Weaver appeared. I have to say that the appearance of Sigourney Weaver is really amazing. I wonder if the director deliberately used this bridge to pay tribute to another film, because she played a copyright lawyer in this film, It happened to also starred in "Ghostbusters" in 1984.
The film is not just a joke, the final scene in the film is that they decided to make a new documentary in memory of the legendary American jazz musician Fitz Waller, because the place where he was born is this Fletcher's house. In an old attic that is about to be demolished. All the neighbors came, so we saw a unique, so vivid and touching national carnival, everyone is the screenwriter, director, actor, drama and artist of the film. Presented in the hands of people who have absolutely nothing to do with academics and Hollywood. Their creative ability is just too crazy. The so-called grassroots entertainment and grassroots spree climaxed at the end of the credits. At the end of the film, there is no chicken blood and magic stick performances in the whole movie, there is no excitement like high medicine, and some are a kind of faint sadness, and the spirit of the cottage seems to have some texture and emotion.
When Fitz Waller's music sounded, the movie ended, and the melancholy or a bit of a sense of loss in this film led by Jack Black seemed to have another layer of literary and artistic youth in the streets after the rain.
As a film that doesn't take off clothes and bask in ketchup, this film undoubtedly I think is still very touching and sincere. Although compared with a tribute film or nostalgic film like "Tropic Thunder", the meaning of tribute is relatively weak, but the meaning of nostalgia is indeed quite in place.
It is recommended to watch.
The last thing I want to say is that Fat Guy Jack's performance is too cute. It's hard to believe that the comedy component of this movie is, in a way, entirely due to the scenes he propped up by himself, and now I think Zach Galifianakis and Jack are the face of the Hollywood fat guy.
