Wufang is suitable for playing the role of decadence and madness

#Good Time# (B+) A very interesting little film, should it be called a black escape comedy? The story is actually very similar to the baby driver, and the soundtrack is also a highlight, with all kinds of surprise twists. But as a low-cost story, it is obviously not as stylized as the baby driver, and there are no big shots or beauties in the film, and some are just the last struggle of a group of poor people on the fringes of society.

You will not feel that this is the same person in Twilight when you watch this film. Indeed, some actors need a suitable role to have the opportunity to explode their acting skills. The five-party Robert Pattinson, who grew a beard and became very decadent, accurately showed the madness and paranoia of the male protagonist in this film, making people see his potential to play a role like a murderer in the future [laughing]. One of the directors, Ben Safdie, played the IQ-impaired younger brother in the film, too.

This film is actually like those escape movies we have seen, there will be all kinds of accidents along the way, and all kinds of strange people will be encountered. But from the male protagonist, we have also seen the mistakes that many people have made, thinking that they are doing good for others, thinking that they are very smart and can escape the disaster, but in the end they can only reap the consequences. The experience of the brothers in the film is worthy of sympathy, and they are tragic children from tragic families, which also makes people laugh at the stupid behavior of the protagonist while watching, but often feel sad for them. Therefore, this is not only an escape movie, but also reflects the experience of some small people at the bottom of society, and there is still hope to enter the awards season. Maybe, Wufang can really be shortlisted for a performance award.
