Credits: Director Coen Brothers. Omg, is that the one from No Country for Old Men? These two also direct spy blockbusters? Won't make it black again.
Fortunately, the truth is not only black, but also humorous. This film can be said to be a collection of idiots. The Coen brothers won the Oscar, and even these three big names are vying to play idiots for them. However, these three actors are all very well chosen, and they are infinitely in line with their true temperament.
Brad Pitt, the only role he played in a normal image is "The Years of Love" which is more in line with his prodigal temperament, and the others who play well are idiots or lunatics: "12 Monkeys", "Fight Club". The Coen brothers have really poisonous eyes, and Brad Pitt in "Burn After Reading" is a well-deserved two hundred and five.
George Clooney, the quintessential playboy figure with nothing in his chest. Most of the films he has acted in are like this. This film is also, without ambition, only to engage in online dating and complacent, and at the same time make some wretched gizmos. Little did he know that he had already caught fire in the backyard.
John Malkovich, one of my favorite actors. He's insane as a neurotic character. In this film, he uses f**k the most frequently, and the effect is excellent every time. Coupled with his indescribable expression, it is really interesting.
Francis McDormand's paranoid middle-aged woman is also excellent, showing us how narrow-minded, how arrogant, how vulgar, how boring the average American can be. It's just that she has gone mad at a certain level.
The gym owner played by Richard Jenkins embodies a different kind of American, timid and unlucky at the same time. When I meet a lunatic like John Malkovich, I can only admit that I am unlucky.
Wife of the truly grim strongmen John Malkovich and George Clooney. Extramarital affairs, demolition of bridges across rivers, investigation of husbands, finding faults for divorce, and keeping a low profile. These two people are showing that the most poisonous woman's heart, men are ignorant megalomaniacs.
However, the real idiots to the 2X level are the two CIA officials. Polite, stupid and rigid, ignorant and confused. The whole story is an extremely stupid X thing, and with the serious intervention of these two people, it has reached the realm of 2X. Brad Pitt is a two-hundred-five at most, and these two are 2X.
On the whole, the film is clearly more than just hilarious. 2X's CIA officials directly delivered the Coen brothers' ruthless irony. A lot of the serious stuff in America is a farce of a bunch of idiots who think everyone else is idiots.
