Pre-holiday ticket prices are expensive, and after the festival, watch a small-cost comedy. However, although it is a small cost, but the lineup of this movie is not small, comedian Wen Song self-directed and self-acting, plus Jia Bing, Cui Zhijia, Zhang Chenguang and other god assists, the interpretation of a comedy film that is both lifelike and full of dreamy colors is vivid, and it has to be said that comedy from real life is the most emotional.
The name of the movie is "Crouching Mouse, Hidden Worm", different from the "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in everyone's mouth, most ordinary people really dare not easily call themselves tigers and dragons, so the film is very grounded, is a grassroots comedy, telling the story of how a small person copes with and grows up in the face of sudden changes in life. You may think that such a story is a bit too dramatic, but who can say that such a thing is 100% impossible to happen to you.
Guo Hao, played by Wen Song, is an obscure small-town youth, kind-hearted, with his own dreams, and a crush on the pharmacy girl next door. Guo Hao wanted to make a change in his life, so he bought the overseas labor package of the black intermediary played by Jia Bing, but he did not expect that the fate of Guo Hao, whose ship had just docked at the dock in a foreign country, was changed. It turned out that Guo Hao looked exactly like the boss of a Southeast Asian company, and there have always been shareholders in this company who are coveting the position of boss, so Guo Hao has been used as a stand-in. At this time, the real boss has become a victim and drifted to Guo Hao's hometown... In this regard, identity swaps have brought a series of yin and yang events, and also brought a series of laughs.
The story adopts a two-line narrative method, one is the adventure of the fake boss played by Guo Hao in other countries, and the other is the encounter of the real boss Edward in China, this kind of heaven-into-earth identity contrast will inevitably collide with a strong comedic color, the comedy core has, and then it depends on the details of each laugh point, and it will be exaggerated if it is handled well. This movie is very flattering in the handling of laughter points, first of all, a large number of symbolic characters, such as the construction site bald head, such as brainless stupid hands, as well as Jia Bing's black agent who only recognizes money, and the city mixed trio, they all undertake a lot of laughs, and play a role in sublimating the protagonist's aura. Then there are many more intuitive comedy sections, such as Guo Hao taking his own experiments to tie acupuncture points, brainwashing employees, etc., the baggage is very dense.
Let's talk about the character of Guo Hao. Comedian Wen Song has always brought a unique humor cell, people who have seen his sketches know that the characters he plays have a tragic and joyful characteristics, as a comedian, it is rare to see Wen Song laughing in his works, he and Song Xiaobao are completely two styles. In this movie, he plays two roles alone, whether it is Guo Hao or Edward, they all have their own difficulties in their own lives, which is really called "the adult world is not easy". I remember an impressive line, that is, when Guo Hao and Edward met for the first time, Guo Hao asked Edward how he was doing, and then Guo Hao said, "I really envy you as a big boss, but I am also good, my grandmother is very good to me." In fact, the film shows that Guo Hao is an orphan, and the clip of being picked up and raised by his grandmother is a brush stroke, but this sentence immediately outlines the picture of Guo Hao's growth experience, this kind of scene instantly makes people break the defense, sublimates the whole movie, and the character of Guo Hao has become more plump.
In terms of funny, the film is not ambiguous at all, from the beginning to the end, there are tense crime action thrillers interspersed with it, is a very diverse comedy. The film is set on Higashiyama Island, where you can enjoy the beauty of the island and exotic scenery. If you think that the New Year comedy is too little to laugh enough, then go to the theater on March 4 to see this "Crouching Mouse".
