A little wasted the story itself.

The members of the Digital Shot group, who had become so popular after SNL, brought a three-seed comedy this time. The director’s last play was not very good. Both the plot and the laughter were very poor, and the box office was of course not ideal. . This time, this group of people finally invited several major comedy stars to join the battle, plus the screenwriter of another comedy star Logan, making this film a pass.

There is still a big difference between sketches and movies. The sketches made by the director's team before are very interesting, and there are also very creative things. The content is all three common types, especially sexual things. This movie is probably the same. The story itself is okay, with a very simple plot, interspersed with things that I don't know if it is a joke or disgusting.

The story of aliens attacking the earth may not be felt by junior high school students anymore. This film also uses an extremely simple and logical way to perform such a play. It is a pity that this film is combined with the British film. "Alien Paul" is still far behind, there are not many laughs, and the aliens deal with too little, and there are too many places for the protagonist. This shows that Seth Rogen's screenwriting ability is insufficient. . Although it is called "Neighborhood Neighborhood", the description of the real street-seeking place is rarely very bad. Are the teenagers who throw eggs ridiculous?

Ben Stiller seems to have been acting this kind of story that looks serious, but always experiences some wonderful and funny things, either meets the best father-in-law, or meets the best museum, this time encounters illogical aliens. The logic I said refers to the logic of the story itself. This kind of science fiction film that completely abandons the excavation of aliens itself is really rare. Apart from spoofing their brains, there is no creativity. The other actors have no special features, just different characters, not different comedy characters.

Maybe some people don’t know the focus of this film. As a result, the security part and the alien part are not enough. I hope this team can do better next time, if they can find investment.

The Watch quotes

  • Hero Alien: We are already among you!

  • Jamarcus: I have this one scenario in my mind. I kinda hope it plays out like this: young, sexy, Asian housewife, alone at night, frightened. A noise out by the trash cans. Best call the neighbourhood watch. I show up, look heroic, and then... get this - she sucks my balls.

    Franklin: I'm also interested in that happening to me.
