Speaking of the plot, I think the second time I watched it and the first time I watched it, the idea was different. As said at the beginning of the film, the more you look closely, the easier it is to be led by the nose. You think you've seen it all, but you've been tricked. I am about to steal your attention.
The general direction of the story is clear to everyone, and most people are also shocked by the big boss. But there are generally the following problems, that is, the four horsemen, the dark organization eye, and in the end it is just revenge. Then there's the courtship segment at the end that's generally agreed to lower the level of the film. In addition, there is also a fight scene between the sheriff who was criticized for "playing the audience like a fool" and brother Jack. In the end, it is embarrassing that magic turns into a magical existence.
The following are my thoughts after reading it for the second time. It may also be over-interpreted, and the brain is too much~~
The eye god horse does not exist at all (perhaps there is, but it has nothing to do with this battle plan), this is just the magician's revenge. Just as the characters in the play are blinded by those wonderful shows and fail to see their true purpose, the so-called eye is just a gimmick of revenge. Among the four magicians, the hypnotist inside is different from the other three magicians. He is older than them, and he did not follow the camera to the mysterious place, but he was already waiting when the camera was facing. There it is. In the many scenes in which the other three magicians talked about the eye, the hypnotist was not very interested in this organization. The hypnotist was irritable when the four of them faced the possible risk of being arrested, and I just wanted to make some money before I retire. Then the female magician said that it is difficult to ride a tiger, no matter whether this eye exists or not, we must stick to the original plan to get these things. When the last four people saw the real boss, the hypnotist didn't seem very surprised, saying that we didn't guess it was you. The female magician was speechless in surprise. The proudest control freak magician was a little reluctant, but he still accepted it, which was really amazing. And the cute boy Jack is almost a little frightened.
So, my guess is, in fact, the hypnotist and the big boss have already communicated with each other, and the eye does not exist, it is just used to use the gimmicks of the other three magicians. After all, he has too many things to do, so why not find a few helpers? got it. And why did you find a hypnotist? After the first show, the detective arrested four magicians, but only revealed the life experience of the hypnotist among the four magicians. Using this technique of hypnosis, he made a lot of money, and he had a brilliant star life for a period of time, but in the end his brother ran away with all the money he earned. In the end, he was reduced to a low-end person who used this skill to extort people's livelihood. At the same time, when Brother Hei came to bring a good greeting to the second show, the first person who attacked Brother Hei personally was the hypnotist. From their conversations, you can even boldly guess, if Brother Hei's disclosure and demolition brought a blow to the big boss's father, whether Brother Hei also took a certain blow to the hypnotist. Looking at the reactions of the other three of the four, the female magician and the cute boy Jack just watched the hypnotist and the proud brother ridicule Hei Ge for a few words, while the proud young brother directly said that Hei Ge is not talented enough, and also got it. A trick molesting black brother, but also very in line with the character image. Therefore, in addition to the motive of making money, hypnotists also have a certain degree of revenge.
Look at the other three candidates in the four horseman. The first is the proud little brother. He is already a magician with a very good response in a small area, and there are girls who take the initiative to devote themselves. Even his assistant (female magician) can start to take charge of his own show. The second is this female magician. The piranha in the beginning was really frightened when she watched it in the movie theater. She thought that she had an accident while doing this kind of escape magic like the poor little mushroom Liang in the fatal magic. . Although she said at the beginning, I am not your assistant any more. But with the development of the film, she still has the habit of obeying the proud little brother. And in the end, the cute kid Jack saw the proud brother and said at first glance that you are my idol. That is to say, the proud brother is a captain-like existence in the team.
If you just choose a magician who is cowardly, why would you want to find such a few people, especially the cute boy Jack, who is far worse than the proud brother in terms of magic creativity. But Jack can open the lock, dare to let out such bullshit, nothing has ever locked. The ability configuration of these four people is almost not to find the heir of the organization, but to build a team with leaders and complementary skills.
Let's talk about the final courtship. Inspector Sensen made it very clear, but I didn't see it when I watched it for the first time: I planned these things. Do you want to lock me up and let the innocent black brother out? You can figure it out. . In fact, I have planned so much, but only you are out of my plan.
Why? First of all, there are several scenes in the details of the film. Inspector Sensen expressed novelty and tenderness to the female police officer. The first was on the plane. Inspector Xian Sen finally showed his interest in the female police officer with a look that was not acting. In the back, the female police officer was gently covered with a quilt while she fell asleep. And the two people in the back made eye contact and almost kissed. Inspector Xian Sen said, er, I got to... Secondly, the female police officer has always been with Inspector Xian Sen, and the female police officer herself is not stupid, In the end, the detective also revealed his identity to the old black brother who was behind bars, and the female police officer would definitely be able to find out if she wanted to continue to investigate. It's better to take the initiative to confess and see how the woman reacts.
Finally, I want to talk about the big reversal of the big boss's appearance. A lot of people say this is ridiculous, isn't it fooling the audience when the big boss entangles with the magician seriously at the back? ! Is it really to fool the audience?
no.
First of all, let's look at what Inspector Xian Sen is going to do. He uses the legend that the magicians are not sure whether they exist or not, and assign tasks to these geniuses. But he couldn't be discovered, he hadn't had real face-to-face contact with these people, and he wasn't sure if these people could get things done. As a person who has everything planned, it is a very rational performance to not let these used magicians know that they are the big bosses.
Let's see what his performance is all about.
After the first show was over, he made a fool of himself chasing himself, leading almost all his teammates in the wrong direction and letting the magicians go.
When the second game was about to start, I found out that my mobile phone was bugged. The timing was just right, just for the police to chase and block the magicians, which directly caused the suspended animation of the cute boy Jack, and prepared for the third show.
Third, jack was almost trapped in that room. If the large group rushed into the room at that time, Jack would be caught if he played poker again. At this time, the detective said a few words at the right time, and let Jack learn the voice of his voice to lead the army away.
After the pursuit, I first had a conversation with the female police officer, and blocked the car of the black brother who was following him. When contacting the main force, he deliberately said the wrong direction. In the end, the cute boy Jack's suspended animation was also performed by the detective, so that everyone could see that there was a person in the car, his arm was still real, and then the car exploded, the car crashed, and the high temperature could burn the DNA, let Jack considered dead by all. In the end, the stack of documents that the inspector rescued from the car was deliberately left by the magicians. However, if the inspector hadn't acted recklessly with his life, the police might not be able to obtain this stack of documents, and Jack's suspended animation could not be confirmed. .
Therefore, without the hard work of the detective's children's shoes, the magicians may have been invited to prison by the FBI.
Last but not least, these actors are great, and the film has a great sense of humor in the hypnotism. What impressed me most was that in the third scene, Jack looked at the money in the safe, and his Adam's apple rolled up and down. The harmony of other people is better~~
