      Due Date--The Road Comedy

      I remember watching Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang co-starred in "The Journey", known as the first road comedy in China. But compared to the "Date of Birth" I just watched, there is a world of difference in terms of plot design and humor.

      Peter is a middle-class construction engineer with a good education and a superior living environment. His wife is rushing home soon after giving birth; Ethan is an actor who is looking for a job. His father has just passed away, and his life is...

      You think you’re a hedgehog, but you’re just wearing a toothpick


          If the shell in "Full Metal Shell" was made for you by someone else, then the thorny coat in "Expected Date" was made by you yourself. People think that people in this world are hedgehogs like Schopenhauer said, so they also dress themselves up as hedgehogs. In fact, they just find some toothpicks to stick in their coats.



      Peter and Ethan are two extreme examples in the play.
          Peter is a typical urbanite with a successful career, well-dressed, well-groomed...

      awful

      First of all, if I were Robert Downey Jr., either I would shoot Zach to death on the road or I would die by myself. For sure.

      This film is to bring the audience into the role played by Downey, and then endure all kinds of hardships, and finally fall in love with Zach.
      But unfortunately, in the end the audience thinks that he is the king of the lack of eyes. Maybe you have a good impression of him. Humor must be harmless, and it’s enough for us to greet his family...

      American humor is enough, don't think too much

      If this film had been released earlier than "The Journey", I would have given it 4 stars. Now it feels a little less innovative, like a hapless bastard, has a weak brain, and also causes others to suffer together, but the plot is more tortuous.

      Downey has always been Zach's acting skills are so good, I have always thought of a sentence: poor people must have something to hate =

      There are still some shadows about the lost family and the friendship that shared weal and woe. It...

      Dreaming Journey

      "Expected Date", at first thought it was a comedy, but what I saw looked completely different from the title. Although many humorous plots are constantly interspersed, one after another, I think it is always a philosophical film with rich connotation.
          Two very different people are forced to walk together. The differences in personality, thoughts, experiences, values, etc. make conflicts between them one after another, but they have substantial similarities-emotional resonance . Peter...

      The American version of people is on the road, and the original cast of hangovers. Flick the edge of American words such as drugs, guns, drag racing, star dreams, racial sensitivity, and illegal immigration. If the difference between Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang is ultimately due to the difference in social status, then the two protagonists in this film are more about the difference in personal values. The deepest thoughts in the hearts of people all over the world are home. A lot of light but...

    Movie plot

He got on the plane and met the actor Ethan who wanted to be famous. Tremblay ( played by Zach Galifianakis ) , has been in bad luck ever since. After a chaos, the two were driven off the plane and included in the list of no-fly passengers. The most unfortunate thing is that Peter's wallet and documents...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The dog in the film is actually the pet of director Todd Phillips. 
    Because there are restricted shots about dogs in the film, the film got an R grade.  
    Director Todd Phillips showed a small face in the film, playing the role of a guy named Barry in the cannabis dealer's home.

    Evaluation action

    Todd Phillips is a mediocre comedy. The pairing of Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis is the most unexpected fun of the film, and the rest is lackluster. Downey's image of a well-mannered good man balances Zach's comic-style exaggerated performance. They are really a good pair. This story does have some laughable passages. Unfortunately, the way the main line of the story puts these laughter points together is not successful. The...
