There are not many commercial films that focus on the field of "art circle". Because of the need for a lot of knowledge reserves and textual research habits, this film basically passes the test in terms of art knowledge and art scenes. It can be seen that the main creators have intentions Start a new series of movies.
Full of British style and good looks, art thieves with shelves, glamorous and beautiful wives, loyal and whole-body servants, detectives who are good at messing up, stupid stupid thieves, this film is almost It includes all the elements of a genre film, and this genre is the "confused detective and stupid thief" popular in the last century, I think everyone has seen it.
It's a pity that caring too much has the opposite effect. Depp and other big-name actors just want to play the lower limit on the screen, but they forget that the movie needs the support of the plot, and the plot setting is too weak. And the messy narrative logic and character motivations make this film feel goofy whenever it's paired with Depp's goofy performance. We can only see a Depp showing endless stupidity, what exactly he is going to do, but no one seems to want to know.
We can't help but wonder, is this really the case with authentic British humour? Britons who have always been willing to use cultural conflicts to create humor are useless if they can't correct their own style. It seems that in the film, there is also a little humorous conflict between British and American cultures, but they are also old stalks of bad streets. When an action movie that tries to play comedy can only please the audience with "cold food", I think it is fair for the audience to respond with a big ear and a middle finger.
When watching the chase scene in the movie, the level of action scenes is still in the 1980s, I can't help but think of Depp's famous saying in the film - "You vomit. I vomit too", which is also a tribute to the "you vomit." Let's dance, I dance too" postmodern structure, we have the right to have a good time, and let's laugh and laugh.
In a word, the whole film looks like the piece of stinky cheese that entertains guests. The audience only cares about whether the guests eat or not, but no one cares what the film is talking about...
