Don't look at the cover, look at the plot

Love and Other Disasters, I can't remember who recommended it to me first, saying it looks good. I looked at the cover, a girl in a short pink skirt, sitting on the floor in a yoga-like posture with her legs crossed, her chin resting on her knees, it was a bit difficult, and it was also a youth idol nympho movie series. So I put this film into the chewing gum brainless movie category. Decided not to watch.

Later, after a long, long time, when I couldn't buy this DVD anymore, I didn't know the thread was moving, and suddenly I wanted to watch it again. Found the link on GOGO, downloaded it for a few hours and finished watching it last night. Luckily I didn't miss it. I despise the person who designed the poster for not grasping the essence of the film at all.

I want to say, it's really hilarious, this is the funniest movie I've seen since 2009. France, the United Kingdom, and the United States are co-produced by three parties. No wonder, the whole film is full of British humor and unreliable French people. There are only a little American elements, and they are all used as spoofs. It's really wonderful. The screenwriter and the director are the same person, they know exactly what they want to express, and they won't fight with the screenwriter. It seems that it is really easier to make a good movie, for example, "The Killer Has No Vacation". After watching it, I started to like the heroine Brittany Murphy a little bit, like her thick lips, big eyes, exaggerated eyelashes, like her small person who dares to wear anything, like her always energetic, stepping on high heels from one place to another. In one place, she has never been really depressed in the whole film. not easy.

Girls must have a very strong circle of friends. There are GAY friends who can live together. He can accompany you to all occasions where you need a male companion. Pure friendship. There is also an extremely unreliable same-sex friend who will always have the most outrageous relationship to share with you. She will come to you to cry regardless of time and place, and make a boyfriend called "Freedom". Would it be better?) I didn’t call the police when I received a harassing call from a staff member of the telephone company, because the other party promised to install free broadband for her, and she was very creative when she was drunk. If you fall in love at first sight with a random stranger, these friends are powerful enough to find out everything about him, even if he goes on a business trip across the ocean, someone will know him and tell him your crush on him. You need to know a small foreign language, English is not considered, you need to be sexy, Spanish, at least French; you also need to have a literary specialty, the kind that doesn't seem to be in line with you at all, but you are very charming, To be warm enough to be small enough. In this way, you will be very happy even if you are not in love for a while; in this way, you will certainly not miss out with the person you love. In this way, it really looks like something that only happens in movies.

Whatever, it entertained me for an hour and a half and stayed high for an hour after watching the movie.
