There are many kinds of jokes in the world. Some are funny in words, a cold joke, you can laugh for 5 seconds. Some are funny in behavior, funny performances, which made us laugh for 10 seconds. I just watched this movie. The actors were serious, I always felt that the title must be wrong, how could it be a comedy, and later I found that when absurdity and real acting skills are combined, serious comedy is the most profound.
Many of the plots of the film are very absurd, such as the comparison between the relaxation of the hostages in the bank and the nervousness after they come out, the excitement of the American imperialists on the street, and the passive helplessness of the police. The real events and the creation of the director and screenwriter magnify the reality.
This kind of funny bank robbery film reminds me of many similar films in China in the later period, but they seem to have not captured the essence of comedy for the sake of comedy, so that the robbers are blindly unorganized and unplanned. Obviously, Sunny has many advantages that enable him to have been entangled with the police for so long. I will mention this later. This comedy made me feel the different absurdities between the East and the West. I saw Devils' Come and Pan Jinlian. I think this kind of absurdity is a kind of absurdity. It's different. Maybe there's no funny BG to set off.
In any case, the hero of this good movie, Al Pacino, is the shining point of the movie. After seeing the woman and the godfather, he became a fan, and after the phone call with Leon, he looked desperate and finally got caught. His eyes made me feel his deep acting skills, and his outbursts and the scenes that mobilized the atmosphere were also very explosive and confessed.
