Beibei's Movie World: http://blog.sina.com.cn/bblovesmovies
I've seen too many American comedies that use "sex" as the protagonist, and look at the British cold humor for a different taste, it will definitely be refreshing a feeling of. The plot of "Wild Target" is very simple. It is a series of changes brought about by a ruthless killer who falls in love with his target. The pace of the movie is fast, one scene follows another, and you don't have any chance to desert at all, otherwise you will miss another wonderful dialogue and laughter, and you will feel a pity.
To say that British comedy is sullen is because they don't have that madness even in the process of making jokes. Either with a straight face, or calmly talking and doing certain behaviors, there will be no American comedy-style hilarity and environmental damage at all. The laughs often come from their short and delicate conversations, or their seemingly unconscious actions and behaviors. Just look at "Mr Bean" to understand this.
To say that British comedy is impersonal is because their laughs are beyond normal. For example, the protagonist in "Wild Target" is a killer, so talking about killing in the movie is just like talking about eating, but it is a profession, and the level of the killer will be defined by the level of quantity and quality. When the killer accidentally kills the wrong person, it's like eating a stone while eating. When Ron knocked off the bodyguard's ear, the bodyguard was still talking while covering his ears, which was an uncharacteristic comedy pattern that went beyond normal thinking.
To say that British humor is coincidental is because most humor is like an alarm clock set to go off at some point. For example, when the bodyguard who was knocked down by the male protagonist threw a knife from behind and attacked the male protagonist, we all knew that the male protagonist would not die, but how to be rescued? At this time, Ron steadily caught the knife, and then said: did you see that? It's really cold humor, and it makes people smile when they do it to the extreme.
Another lovely thing about "Wild Target" is that every character is full. Even if it is only a supporting role, in the scene he is in, he will become the protagonist of making jokes and have his own distinct personality and characteristics, which is impressive.
So, take a look at British humour for a change, and you won't be disappointed.
