To be honest, the trailer has a bad appetite. The producer deliberately selected a few elementary jokes and put them together, revealing the temperament of a low-mind comedy, and also decorated the male protagonist Mark so kindly, stupidly and cutely.
While the main line of the story is being carried out seriously, Mark's psychological narration and humorous soundtrack (really a strange phrase) have been reminding everyone that what you see is nothing but a farce.
There are two stories in the narration, one is a polar bear and the other is a butterfly, both of which are about camouflage. The non-toxic butterfly grows bright colors, and it is toxic to deceive the bird itself. This is true. Polar bears know how to cover their black nose with bear paws (really?) in order to hide themselves in the snow and ice. Whether it is a predator or a prey, the purpose of lying is nothing more than survival.
The whole thing started with the virus in the corn syrup machine. The person who launched the virus is likely to be Mark himself. The company lost 7 million per month to the virus. He fabricated a Japanese to ask for 10 million, which is also an acceptable transaction for the company. If the company believed him and paid for it obediently, there would probably not be a one-hundred-minute story to tell. The problem is that the company got the FBI to investigate the insider, and Mark had to continue editing it. Every time a new situation arises, he has reasonable and credible new lies to deal with, but it is a pity that more and more people are involved, and the old lies are exposed one by one. Even the Ivy League students with high IQ may not be successful. living.
It is not true to say that he is a liar. Each of his lies has a clear purpose. For example, to fabricate one's parents who died early and was adopted and brought up is to gain sympathy and trust, and to establish an image of a moral model, not to lie aimlessly and compulsively.
The above is the plot.
It is unfair to say that the pace of the film is slow. The way the story progresses is like playing a platform game. You have to manipulate the protagonist to jump on a bubble, and then jump on a higher one just before it bursts. Mark continued to lie to keep AMD's allegations of "price manipulation" going on. Every ten minutes or so, a new lie must appear and overturn some things. The facts before this must be refreshed. The most frequently asked question by FBI agents and lawyers is: "Are you hiding anything from us?"-The answer is always "Of course!"
