The greater the joke, the greater the risk

I received this film because it took too long to see Milla Jovovich, but the film itself is still interesting. As most drama course teachers say, all the stories are the same story. How to use the same thriller elements to find a breakthrough in technique and avoid picking up people's teeth is becoming more and more difficult. If it is not tepid, it will inevitably be plain and tasteless, or fall into the cliche, but if the reversal is too intense, it will easily lead to too bizarre and blunt, which will pull the audience out of the mood.
The reversal of "A Perfect Getaway" is fierce enough. The character image and possibility gradually constructed by bit by bit of information is completely subverted at the climax, occasionally with continuous smoke bombs, and whenever the plot seems to fall into conventional wisdom At the time, they all passed by, and the suspense remained until the last moment, and it also entered the biggest trap.
The bigger the joke, the greater the risk. Such a sudden reversal will inevitably be slightly blunt, and the preparation is still a bit sloppy. The climax of the video and editing is not calm enough, but in any case, the overall effect is still pretty good. The actors The precision of the film provides a reliable guarantee for the film, and it is especially worth mentioning that Olifant's appearance is quite charming.

A Perfect Getaway quotes

  • Nick: Those boys are comin' in heavy, you might want to hang back and let 'em do their thing.

  • Cliff: So you were like Special Ops. What were you Seals? Rangers?

    Nick: Officially, I'm only allowed to say that I've been a sworn officer participating in a phase of certain missions that would make most men want to crawl up and hide inside their own assholes.

    Cydney: and unofficially?

    Nick: I'm a goddamn American Jedi. Possible title number one, by the way.

    Nick: Hey, see this? Took a frag from a Bouncing Betty. It's an antipersonnel mine. Caved in the back of my fucking head. Medevaced out to Germany. Got my skull rebuilt with space-age titanium. Can't go through a metal detector without ringing cherries, but that's cool. Let's me travel with Gilligan just about wherever I want.

    Cydney: Gilligan?

    Nick: My little buddy

    Cliff: That's some toothpick

    Nick: Here's the kicker, though. When I took that shrapnel, I never felt it. I mean, I felt the impact and I felt my backside go all wet, but no real pain. Now, maybe I don't recall the events in full. They did scoop out a little gray Spam back there, but get this. My wolf pack? They will swear that I was ambulatory for more than 17 minutes before they forced me to lie down. Tackled me. Even then I was looking to monkey-fuck a Marlboro Light. There's no nerve endings in the brain Cliff. Remember that when you write the scene.

    Cliff: Yeah, there's some really good details there.

    Gina: Yeah, he's really hard to kill.
