[VTALK Film Review No. 68] "Gentlemen" - a time narrative that reciprocates layer by layer

When it comes to movies with this theme, a character with a gentleman's temperament reminds me of the type of "Ace Agent". The special envoys in suits are actually very different from what I imagined, especially The character setting of the theme deviates greatly from what was expected.

There are many characters set in the film, and there are people from various countries and regions, but there is some prejudice in the character setting of the film. Most of its important plot settings are related to the hidden drug trade. The plot trend seems to be layered upon layers. It is necessary to understand the time trend of the story of this film. It may be confusing, as if it is handled in a fragmented way, with no fixed trend, and in terms of chronological order, the order and reverse order are arranged, and the first comes out. As a result, the process is reversed. The whole process seems to be set and dictated by what happens. There is suspense and comedy, it belongs to black humor, and it feels ironic in it.

This movie will be more tiring to watch, the plot is more brain-burning, and it is more difficult to understand. From the perspective of recommendation, the recommendation is average, and you may be at a loss when you see it at the end. The broken timeline makes you feel like you don't know what you're telling the audience. The whole process is basically based on lines and dialogues, with a small amount of action parts. It's more exciting to confront some hooligans. Director Guy Ritchie's previous work "Two Smoking Guns", the director and the work are not particularly well-known, the overall ratings of the two are indeed not bad, and there are still all similarities between them in terms of artistic composition. .

  • Matthew: How does anyone grow fifty tons of super skunk without letting anyone else know how they do it?

    Mickey Pearson: I'm flattered to hear that from you, Matthew. I imagine that big brain of yours is sweating a stream of tears just trying to figure it out.

    Matthew: Brilliance should be acknowledged
