Black films have always attracted much attention in the international film world. In recent years, film themes focusing on the living conditions and discrimination of black people have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. Last year, Spike Lee's "Black Party" won the jury award in Cannes by surprise, and "Green Book" also won the best picture Oscar as a dark horse! Earlier this year, Jordan Peel continued this menacing "blackness" following the second work "We" from "Escape from Death" and "The Last Black Man in San Francisco", which won the best director at the Sundance Film Festival. "Effects", although these two films are eye-catching in terms of subject matter and genre, the word-of-mouth response is not as ideal. Unexpectedly, this "Sorry to Excuse me" from the little-known director has the most potential to become the best black movie of the year! This seemingly common comedy theme kicked off from the living conditions of the black community, constantly shaking out regular office comedy jokes, but did not expect that the director had already planted a surprise of type innovation, and the technique was so ruthless and quasi-pleasant. First, the plot of the workers' struggle was used to tear the melodrama routine, into the tit-for-tat social and political irony, while the black protagonist imitated the voice of the white to get promoted, and the scene of a peaceful rise sharply exposes the hidden racial discrimination and severe class differences. The last part Even more, the Jedi turned into an unbelievable, mind-blowing, thrilling and suspenseful plot of human-beast hybridization. As a result, the theme of the film was able to break the monotonous category of American racial discrimination and class struggle and rise to a critique of the exploitative nature of the entire capitalist system. The plot of the movie always makes the audience burst into laughter and surprise in unexpected places. This is similar to "Escape from Dead End", and the climax part of the image is more shocking than the skin-changing process of "Escape from Dead End". Nothing less. The new director’s creativity seems even more complex: rap music, performance art, Internet manipulation of public opinion, and wild sci-fi settings, gradually turning the plot into a farce of nonsensical farce. The most rare thing is that the director has always "stick to the core of the script" in the laughter and curse (in the words of the company boss in the play, Stick To The Script): Thinking about the disadvantaged position of blacks in the white-dominated workplace environment, the difference between capitalists and workers There is a clear understanding and analysis of the antagonism and mutually beneficial relationship between the two, which undoubtedly makes the film still leave a thought-provoking sense of reality and criticism after it brings hearty laughter and a sense of horror to the audience.
