When the name of the protagonist of the movie was named "Baby", the villain appeared under the name of "Buddy", and the villain was called "JD". Judging from the director's style, the film will never be wasted to add a meaningless bridge. Anyone who understands, please remind me, thank you) The director has been telling the audience how serious he is about this story from the very beginning. If you still struggle with the logic of the story, you will really go astray.
I have to mention that the structure of the film is very similar to "Guardians of the Galaxy": the protagonist is a member of a criminal gang (the protagonist is also an orphan and has a similar relationship with the leader of the gang), and then he reverts to justice, and then the gang turns against each other. Of course, films with such a storyline cannot be counted on ten fingers, but one of the things that other films have in common is the use of nostalgic pop music throughout the film. Whether it is "Silver" or "Extreme", the music is not just a background foil. The music in "Silver" is in the form of Star Lord's father's Walkman, while in "Extreme" it is the Ipod and Baby's strange ears. sick. This kind of processing makes the music of the film exist in the film like a prop, and the characters can interact more smoothly with the music, and it can make the film not look like a Bollywood musical. "Extreme" learned the idea of "Silver", and further strengthened the interaction between music and characters. The 35 nostalgic pop songs in the whole film cover various styles of rock, jazz and country, which are almost perfectly combined with the picture. The handling of rhythm is even better than that of
On the basis of the "Silver" film structure, the director completed a patchwork of American cultural elements including pop music: old-fashioned gangsters, individual heroism and American romantic storylines, car culture, cafes, tattoos, And so on, finally incorporating British humor and speeding stunts. All the elements of the film feel familiar, and the piece together is refreshing. The details of the film everywhere reflect the innate delicacy of British filmmakers.
And what I like the most is the almost perfect rhythm of the film, the coordination between the picture and the music is almost perfect, and the progress of the whole film is very smooth and smooth. Rather than a comedy, I prefer to think of this as a British American literary film. As an after-dinner sensory recreation, this is a film not to be missed.
