      The pure counterattack of various diaosi

      10 points! Why is it good, because this is a pure diaosi counterattack.
      Is it a youth film, it's nothing more than a counter-attack. But most of the films of youth or counterattack route are that diaosi have changed to a certain extent. Under the circumstances of no longer diaosi, they get what they should get as non-diaosi. In this film, various diaosi (Napoleon, Pedro, Kip) completed the counterattack in a complete diaosi state. Pedro was elected as the student council president, Kip...

      totally no point

      If it wasn't for Daire, I would never have seen such a strange movie in my life. Generally speaking, there is not much connection between the plot and the plot. It is a four-frame comic that is interspersed in series, but the inside is quite strange. When I woke up this morning, I still want to laugh when I think of some of the plots in it. I think if I could still be with Ah every day before. If the big cold guy talks on the phone to exchange his experience, I will explain the picture with her...

      The blandness worth the aftertaste

      The protagonist gave me a complex, intertwined emotion. Sometimes they are angry, sometimes they are sad. But the final episode made me have some admiration for him. Although he soon returned to plainness, he always felt that there was still some aftertaste... The

      When my heart was hollowed out, I put a candy in my mouth

      With his mouth half open and always like to use "So what do you think", Napoleon, who speaks out of tune, has a very bad first impression in my heart. This kind of stubborn guy outside is very touching.

      The main characters are all foolishly bubbling

      I like the way the names of the production company, starring, producer, screenwriter, director, etc. appear in sequence at the beginning, accompanied by relaxed and uninhibited folk music, using various foods, sauces, stationery, cards and even lip balm! It gives people a three-dimensional impression, as if these people are all dishes for everyone to taste.
          Sure enough, this big man is a silly bubbling little man, his somewhat mentally retarded brother, crazy and invincible...

    Movie plot

    Napoleon ( Jon Hyde ) is not the general who has captured almost all of Europe, but an ordinary high school student living in Princeton, Idaho, who has the same troubles as other boys in this confused adolescence. Napoleon lives with his grandmother ( Santi Martin ) and his unemployed brother Cap ( Aaron Ruell ) . One day, their distant uncle Rico ( played by Jon Gris ) appeared inexplicably . He came to this remote town to take care...

    Evaluation action

    "Big Man Napoleon" tells a different youth story with a slow plot like flowing water. Although the protagonist Napoleon is a confused high school student, his pure and kind, introverted and melancholic nature made him silently insist on doing what he thinks is right, and finally got the audience's approval. Compared with the public personality of many youth films or the overwhelming confusion, the film is surprisingly quiet, like a...
