Please forgive me for wishingly applying this ancient motto from a distant country in the East to this pair of self-proclaimed "boring couples from New Jersey", but their dramatic encounters indeed fit the essence of this sentence. If it weren't for this thrilling adventure, perhaps their story would develop into a state of being complacent and dull, and becoming two "best roommates".
Living in a place and having children in pairs, this kind of life sounds really good; coupled with the fact that the husband and wife have the same eyebrows and respect each other as guests, it is even more icing on the cake. But it is this kind of calm life that makes love fade away from its original gorgeous color and become colorless and transparent like boiled water. Although indispensable, it is also dull.
Perhaps this is the portrayal of most middle-class life, but you have to believe that the screenwriter will not allow such a usual story to continue, just as a large meal requires abundant ingredients, and a good dish requires delicious condiments. As a result, the two protagonists opened a door of adventure the moment they chose to eat for others. As for the process, you can ignore it, because detailed spoilers are meaningless here. Anyway, there is always a happy Ending in the end.
In a comedy movie, the audience often does not entangle some unreasonable setting of scenes and time-space conversion arrangements. As long as the plot is fascinating, the rhythm is relaxed, and the bizarre story does not fall into hilarious laughter, it is basically It can be half done. What's more, "Date Night" also added the background of the middle-aged crisis and the discussion of how husbands and wives get along, so that their intentions can be elevated, at least people will reflect on their own lives after watching the movie. The performance of the two protagonists is also the key element of the film not being popular. The exaggeration is full of tension, and the expressions and movements of the standard American comedy are just right; and when the film's rhythm slows down and the introverted emotional expression is needed, it can also naturally and show the true feelings. The so-called relaxation has a degree.
In short, for this comedy movie, if you just want to have a smile while watching it, it can fully meet your needs, as the saying goes; if you still want to leave a place and space for thinking after watching, then It is also enough to let you recall whether you need a little bit of adjustment in your life, as the so-called, how can a delicious dish be without the help of salt.
In this age of fast food, such films will definitely be submerged in the waves of the Yangtze River, which are pushed forward by the waves, but can make you laugh and think at a certain point, which is probably a good performance. Of the dishes.
