The film is based on the novel "A Very Low-key Gentleman" by Martin Booth. The original title of the film was also the same as the title of the novel ("A Very Private Gentleman"), but it was finally changed to "The American". Starring George Clooney is also one of the film's producers. The rhythm of the story is not as tense as the usual killer action films. Both the sound effects and the images are clean and pure. It not only shows the beautiful scenery of the Italian town, but also expresses the suspense and danger of the hero in a quiet and slow way. surroundings. The protagonist George Clooney's skillful and seasoned performance has shaped the male protagonist very plump, and his personal charm shines brightly, allowing us to see a very literary killer. Unlike previous Hollywood killer films, this film has a slightly non-mainstream meaning. Although the film seems to be adhering to the supremacy of artistic conception and focuses on portraying the character and psychology of the characters, it is a pity that the audience and Hollywood who prioritize interests do not seem to buy it, and the box office results are not good. But I still think it's a good movie, worth pondering! After all, you can only cook delicious dishes with limited seasonings to see the true skills!
In addition, the candidates for the female client and the female killer are very beautiful. Although they are not young, they have different temperaments and charms! At the same time, the film is defined as R-rated because the heroine has three-point exposure.
