cool humor textbook

The first impression of this film is that it is star-studded: George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Julia Roberts, Andy Garcia... any one of them is a "corner". ". Not to mention that. The problem is: there are so many big names, but it doesn't cause the visibility to decrease because of one thing and another. On the contrary, this is a very interesting movie.

I have to say that the screenwriter is really good. The seemingly impossible task was finally accomplished. During the period, there were twists and turns, like a cross talk, constantly shaking the burden. And the biggest burden was not shaken until the end. That's the real good script.

What's more worth mentioning is the lines in the play, which are full of humor. Laughing at yourself while telling jokes? Or put on all kinds of funny and exaggerated expressions? No, that's called hilarious at best, not humorous. The real humor is that the performer himself is serious, saying some ordinary words, or doing some inconspicuous things, but in that specific environment, it produces a special sense of comedy, which makes people laugh. "Eleven Arhats" has brought the sense of humor of language and action to the extreme, and it can be used as a textbook of cold humor.

But this sense of humor isn't for everyone. For those who are only used to the style of Zhao Benshan or Zhou Xingchi, or those who lack a sense of humor, it is impossible to understand.

    High IQ crime. It's really rare for so many top coffees to gather in a movie, star-studded.

    [B+] Soderbergh's presentation is neither profound nor superficial, nor does he pursue cheap visual stimulation, everything is a point-to-point, easy-to-follow scheduling method. Soderbergh, who is self-directed and self-cut, is indeed a bit more interesting than regular Hollywood commercials.

Ocean's Eleven quotes

  • [Shaking Billy Tim Denham's hand at Denham's car dealership]

    Frank: You have lovely hands. Do you moisturize?

    Billy Tim Denham: I'm sorry?

    Frank: [as he slowly crushes Denham's hand in his grip] You know, I've tried all sorts of moisturizers. I even went fragrance-free for a whole year. Now my sister, she uses some kind of uh... uh... uh... uh... aloe vera with a little sunscreen in it, and ideally, we should all wear gloves when going to bed, but I found out that that creates a kind of an interference with my... "social agenda", you know what I mean.

  • Rusty: I need the reason. Don't say money. Why do this?

    Danny: Why not do it?

    [Rusty shakes his head]

    Danny: Because yesterday I walked out of the joint after losing four years of my life and you're cold-decking "Teen Beat" cover boys.

    [pause]

    Danny: Because the house always wins. Play long enough, you never change the stakes, the house takes you. Unless, when that perfect hand comes along, you bet big, and then you take the house.

    [another pause]

    Rusty: Been practicing that speech, haven't you?

    Danny: Little bit. Did I rush it? Felt like I rushed it.

    Rusty: No, it was good, I liked it. "Teen Beat" thing was harsh.
