    It was boring at the beginning, but after watching it, the second half is very good, especially the last talk show is really funny. A satirical and a bit sad story, but from another angle, it is an inspirational film. I really envy and admire the...

    Addendum by Martin. The director and the cast bring the characters to life together, great acting, great characters, great...

    It can be seen as a comedy version of "Taxi Driver" by Martin Scorsese, all of which are absurd counterattacks of little people, and the film uses a lot of seamless fantasy scenarios. De Niro's last talk show was designed very well. It was presented in the form of live TV. It was a pseudo-documentary style. The jokes in it were actually portrayals of his childhood. It was a playful way to show how this little guy got to such a point. Ridiculously sad. "Better to be the king of the night than to...

    8.5 The "success" history of the little people destroyed by society, it is obvious that many of the irrationality of the plot arrangement and the exaggerated style of the actors' performances are intended to correspond to the talk show, full of comedy effects, and it is precisely because of this that the intensity of irony is magnified. Darkness and absurdity are evident. The parallel editing of fantasy and reality is interspersed many times in the film, making every special event in the film...

    8.7 Entertaining to the death, in order to become famous as a kidnapper, even a criminal can still become a successful person after becoming famous. Extremely ironic, it seems to be an inspirational story about the journey to success, but the journey to success makes that ridiculous era more ridiculous than it is. Said to be satirizing the United States at that time, in fact, it is not satirizing the current "Internet celebrity" ecology. De Niro's acting skills I have been impressed with, full...

    Until his solo show aired, I was always on Jerry's side and thought he was an arrogant person, and of course I was curious about what he was talking about. The movie kept this suspense until the end. After watching his show, the audience suddenly stood on his side, because those jokes were really good (at least much better than the current "Talk Show King") ), and the ending is even more sublime. I would rather go to jail and give myself a chance to perform. Behind the madness is a sincere love...

    The idea is very good, but it didn't shoot well. Cinematography and editing are abysmal. But the idea is brilliant. It's just that there is no good balance between the expressions of plastic art and the methods of realism. Don't be too loose, the light is too broken. Scorsese mimics a day in the life of a firefighter without the...

    85/100, the more absurd the story goes, the more real it seems to be in this era of entertainment to death. But what it can convey is not only the indictment or thinking about entertainment, but also the insurmountable insurmountability of a certain class barrier. The highlights of this work are not exposed too much, but through Martin's precise emotional control, a variety of emotional transformations are quietly...

    "Better to be king for a night than schmuck for a lifetime" As a fan who is used to seeing De Niro's gangster screen image, Lao Luo's appearance in the film is not pleasing, so I made up for this film after watching The Joker , I just want to sigh that a good film can't look good, except for the lack of audio-visual presentation caused by the age, I like the story of the King of Comedy more than the clown. It is also the cry of the bottom and the irony of the elite. The King of Comedy did not...

    How can you bear the silence when we're all crying? How can you witness violence, bursting before your eyes?

    How can you bear the silence when we're all crying? This sentence is the first lyric of the ending song at the end of the whole film! Personally, I think this sentence may be the best sentence in the film. Many people recalled "The King of Comedy" after watching it. Perhaps the first impression was...

    The ironic age of compulsory reform

    It was actually a coincidence to watch this film. There were people in the group who couldn't go. I got the ticket. After entering the cinema, I thought I went wrong hahaha. The more embarrassing he watched, Martin satirized the American dream to the fullest, but at the same time he cleverly...

The King of Comedy quotes

  • Rupert Pupkin: Why not me? Why not? A guy can get anything he wants as long as he pays the price. What's wrong with that? Stranger things have happened.

  • Rupert Pupkin: I know, Jerry, that you are as human as the rest of us, if not more so.
