Cater to the needs of the market and comment on a popular American movie - "My Spy Ex-Boyfriend". Regarding this work, the comments on the Internet are mixed, some cheered loudly, some criticized, some praised the actor's funny charm, and some laughed at the actor's vulgar performance. All in all, the opposition between the two sides is obvious. If the author is asked to rate, "50 points" (out of 100 points), wonderful funny scenes can be worth 100 points, but boring plots are worthless, and the two are averaged, no more or less, just "50 points".
American movie "The Spy Who Dumped Me"
Genre: Comedy, Action
Main cast: Mila Kunis, Kate McKinnon
Story overview: It tells that Audrey and Morgan are involved in the "international espionage war" by accident.
Release Date: Released in China on October 19, 2018
As a Hollywood comedy action film with a strong female flavor, it is easy for audiences to compare this film with the female version of "Eleven Arhats" (the real film is called "Hidden the Sky"), which is better. inferior?
From the point of view of the cast, "Beauty's Plan" is even better (after all, so many famous Oscar actors participated);
From the point of view of the story, the two are half a catty (both belong to the misuse of money, and there is no discussion about the misappropriation of money);
Judging from the level of humor, this work is enough to kill the opponent in seconds. (Jokes are cheap, cute, and connotative)
After a simple comparison, it officially entered the evaluation stage.
Let's talk about actors
Three people in focus - Mila Kunis, Kate McKinnon, Sam Heughan
The first two are the protagonists, and the two are best friends. Mila is in charge of being in a daze and acting cute; Kate is in charge of vomiting and being cheap . These two people together, sour and refreshing flavor, no one can match. Take this, by the way, to talk about acting, Mila is not as good as Kate! The former's body movements in some shots are a little stiff, not as natural and graceful as the latter's. But fortunately, when matched together, it is not so obvious.
Sam, the handsome boy (like Ronan Keating), plays the role of a special agent, what is the meaning of this role? Brain move.
① Play handsome! He likes to do it alone. With his own strength, he has repeatedly singled out the hostile forces, ravaged the opponent, entered the dragon pool, entered the tiger's den, and hung up all the way, hehe, invincible.
② Men and women are matched, and work is not tiring! His presence adds a bit of masculine charm to the film.
Let's talk about the plot
The cause of the incident: Audrey was inadvertently involved in the espionage war because of his ex-boyfriend (Drew).
The course of the event: Audrey and Morgan are caught in the siege of the killer (walking around Europe), at the moment of crisis, the handsome agent (Sebastian) appears, and the truth of the incident begins to be revealed.
Results of the event: The funny duo (girlfriends) won, and Audrey seemed to have won love, happy ending.
What is there to say about this kind of story? It's that simple, boring, tacky.
a. Simple: The story structure is simple and the character composition is simple.
b. Boredom: The progress of the event is boring, "the protagonist is too good, the villain is too weak" is boring.
c, tacky: the plot is tacky, and the supporting roles are tacky (why should it be linked with the former Soviet Union? The "Cold War mentality" reverberates around the beam, and the opening song "wind of change" by the scorpions has explained everything).
A final look at the selling points
①Mila Kunis+Kate McKinnon
Mila's selling point is that she has a beautiful face (not good acting skills). Fortunately, it is an era of "seeing faces", so she successfully captured the hearts of the audience.
Kate's selling point has two
First, is the "coming out" actress attractive enough?
Second, the acting is amazing, and the whole process is funny and funny.
②The soundtrack is pleasant
When it comes to the soundtrack, just mention a few familiar tracks interspersed in the film.
a, "Wind of Change" (one of the classics of the old German rock band Scorpions, it is recommended to read the lyrics, and I won't say more here)
b, "Fun in Acapulco", from Elvis (the founder of American rock and roll)
c, "Bad Girls" from the controversial Russian punk band Pussy Riot
d, "Don't Know Why (You Stay)", from The Essex Green
...
There are a lot of songs, and the length is related, so I will not describe them in detail. If you are interested, you can download the OST and listen carefully.
③ jokes
a, rubbish jokes (meat jokes, listen to too many, easy to get bored), very cheap, very cute, nutritious, very funny
b, Black Soviet Union, Eastern Europe. Why are all the killers portrayed as "big-limbed, simple-minded" idiots? Especially the former Soviet gymnast (professional killer), who is simply a fighting machine with a "dumb expression and unrequited love for the balance beam"
c, self-deprecating and self-deprecating. Even the local agencies in the United States are not spared, and all kinds of spy agencies (CIA, FBI...) can't be missing one, commit suicide
That's all I want to say, see you next time.
