"Unreasonable" or full of loopholes

[Includes spoilers]

First of all, the name of the movie has nothing to do with the plot, which can be regarded as the nonsensical style that established the movie.

The background of the film is that the two protagonists have psychic abilities, and after injecting drugs from unknown sources, they have a higher level of super superpowers, encounter some weird things, alien monsters, and finally discover the secrets of the parallel world. .

The loopholes in the whole film have gradually appeared. The drugs come from the parallel world. The purpose is to allow the two male pigs to gain superpowers and then reach the parallel world? is this necessary?

Since the super bug korrok in the parallel world can predict the arrival of the second male pig, why can't it predict his own death?

Spiders and flying insects can come from a parallel world, why can't people come?

The existence of these problems is either the crudeness of nonsensical cheap comedy, or the lack of rigor.

The film has its innovations and a little science fiction knowledge as a highlight, but the shortcomings are more obvious, the plot is chaotic, the background is contradictory, the jokes are blunt, and the ending is weak. It is suitable for people with no brains to watch.

  • Dave: What do you think it's like, Father?

    Father Shellnut: What's what like?

    Dave: Being crazy, mentally ill.

    Father Shellnut: Well, they never know they're ill, do they? I mean, you can't diagnose yourself with the same organ that has the disease, just like you can't see your own eyeball. I suppose you just feel regular, and the rest of the world seems to go crazy around you.

  • Roger North: Do the bees know they make the honey for you, or do they work tirelessly because they think it is their own choice?
