To be able to smell its mediocrity and boredom like a dog

First, it's the same sentence. Jump and watch, whether it is a book or a movie, you have to jump and watch. If you don’t skip reading books or watching movies, you can’t watch them, because there are too many and you will feel oppressive.
"Long Live Caesar" first jumps to the scene where Caesar wakes up after being kidnapped. When he got up, he met an old cleaning lady and walked into the kidnapper's room. The pretentious humor, the mediocre atmosphere, immediately knew that the movie was over. There's often this mediocre vibe in the Coen brothers' films. I think his best movies should be "Snowflake High" and "No Country for Old Men". How good is the former, because there is real humor, so that not long ago there was a movie about the Japanese going on a treasure hunt with the plot, which was not bad. As for the latter, I only felt that I watched the movie too early, so that when I read the original novel, I always felt that the tall killer was shaking.
The first step in looking at any work is to sniff out whether it is mediocre or whether it will be fun. First, it must be fun, and then it will be great. How to smell, can't say.
