Will someone have a name called "Rhythm"?
That's right. This is the name of a one-person funny group in Japan.
Bakarhythm (バカリズム English name: Bakarhythm) was originally a Japanese comedy group founded in 1995 by Hidechi Norano and Toshihiro Matsushita. When Hidechi Shono explained the name, he said that it didn't have any special meaning, but he wanted to create a word that didn't exist in the world, so that it would be easy for others to search for it. Similar to domestic sina, sohu, and tencent, it is easy to remember and easy to search.
In 2005, 10 years after its establishment, group member Toshihiro Matsushita decided to give up comedy and quit the group because of the embarrassment of life. The remaining members, Hidechi Ascendo, decided to continue with the name "Dumb Rhythm" and changed from a duo to a solo group. Four years later, the duo became famous when they won the most famous national competition in Japan, the Daikiri National Competition.
However, when Hideji Morino is online or when he participates in shows, he uses the name Stupid Rhythm, and when he personally appears in TV series or movies as an actor, he will use his real name, which is called Hideji Toneno.
As for Hidechi Ascendo, he looks like this.
People who like to watch funny Japanese shows will always see him. However, as a creative artist, the stupid rhythm is not like many domestic artists, and they can't do anything other than acting. Born in 1975, Rhythm has entered a bumper year in 2023. This year, his first child was born after marriage, and his "Restart Life" as a screenwriter helped him win the Screenplay Award at the 115th Japanese Drama Academy Awards.
"Ten Women in the Dark" and "Actresses by Mistake", which are written by Fool Rhythm, are also masterpieces with more than 8 points on Douban, which are worth watching.
Here I want to introduce the latest work of 2024 "Dinner of the Intruders" written by Fool Rhythm screenwriter, a very interesting movie, reversed and reversed, unexpectedly good-looking.
From the poster, it can be seen that this is a film dominated by women.
This is also a major feature of the works of stupid rhythm screenwriters, all of whom take women as the protagonists, but he does not pursue feminism harshly, does not talk about metaphysical things such as women's independence and equality, but adopts a plain perspective, and tells stories very life-like, telling about the troubles between women and the warm moments of women, no ambition, just working hard to live an ordinary life, and only having a relaxed and pleasant daily life is very satisfying.
The angle is strange, warm and romantic, relaxed and interesting, these are the characteristics of stupid rhythm screenwriters, especially "Restart Life", which is the culmination of his screenwriting characteristics. If you remove the sense of humor in these works, it can be like watching Hirokazu Kore-eda's work.
For "The Invaders' Dinner", as a constantly reversing crime story, it should have a thriller and dark atmosphere, but under the choreography of the stupid rhythm, it still reveals warm friendship and happy food routine, which is really ingenious, extraordinarily interesting, and very interesting.
For the lesser-known work "Dinner of the Intruders", it seems that it is not very interesting to carefully hook and dissect it. Only popular works like "Removing the Three Evils Around the World" have the value of detailed deconstruction.
Now, let's just use spoilers to talk about what kind of story this is.
Warning: If you don't come, please stop here!Please close the article and leave!!
"Dinner of the Intruders" is about a female artist in Tokyo, Natsumi Fujisaki (played by Mai Shiraishi), who founded a beauty brand in addition to her acting career and achieved great success, and then founded a political company, and her business is also booming.
However, Natsumi is a little harsh on her employees, and her wages are very low, which makes her subordinates very opinionated.
Akiko Tanaka (played by Rinko Kikuchi) and Megumi Ogawa (played by Hiraiwa paper) are two employees under Natsumi, who are housekeeping workers, and they are our common aunts who come to do cleaning.
Akiko felt that the salary was too low, and she couldn't save money at all after deducting the cost of living every month, so she thought about quitting her job and changing to another family.
During a cleaning job, Akiko and Megumi are partners. Outside of work, the two began to talk about the company's gossip, and Megumi told Akiko that their boss Natsumi was disgusted with tax evasion, and that she had stored the accumulated 300 million yuan in her home.
Then, Megumi asked Akiko: Why don't we go to Natsumi's house and take all the money she has evaded taxes.
Akiko: That's illegal.
Megumi: That's also Natsumi's violation of the law first, even if we take it, she won't dare to call the police.
Akiko: But then we'll be thieves.
Hui: Otherwise, we will donate 200 million yuan, only share 100 million, pay off the debt we owe, and then have a small balance, and that's it.
Akiko: It makes sense, this can be regarded as doing the right thing for heaven, robbing the rich and helping the poor.
Megumi: By the way, if we can't do it, I'll call a sister I knew when I was practicing yoga, Kanae Eto (played by Yoshida Yoshida). The three of us will donate 200 million and divide 100 million equally, which is enough to repay debts.
Akiko: Hey, hey, hey.
Of course, the above conspiracy took a lot of time in the film, so I simplified it.
In short, the threesome is enough.
Oh, these three women, all happen to be single women after divorce, and each of them has a lot of debts and needs money.
Let's open the whole thing.
My boss's house, if I want to go in, I still know the road with a light car, as long as I dodge the apartment security guard Mori Takahiro (played by Toru Nomaguchi), everything will be fine. This is because they learned that Natsumi was going to Hawaii on a business trip for a week, and there was no one at home, so they had enough time to spare.
As a result, the first reversal came.
At Natsumi's home, they didn't find any money at all, and the rumors of the boss's tax evasion looked fake! Moreover, not only did they not find the boss's extra money, but they also found the boss's certificate of charitable donation.
The three of them were immediately discouraged.
Not only did he wronged a good person, but he also seemed to be extremely obscene, and he did everything.
I'm sorry boss. However, since you have been here, let's make some compensation to the boss, anyway, we are also professional cleaners, and after seeing that the boss's home is also hiding filth, let's just clean up for her.
In this way, the three sisters, who had just left the boss's house, returned to the boss's house again and began to clean her.
Akiko is responsible for cleaning the gaps in the front and back of the cabinet, and Megumi cleans the kitchen. Chanae didn't know how to clean, so she simply sat cross-legged on the sofa and practiced yoga to pass the time.
Megumi, who was cleaning the kitchen, saw that there were a lot of temporary ingredients in the boss's refrigerator, and for the cleaning staff, they either had to consume them quickly or have to throw them away. After all, when the boss comes back from a business trip, it will definitely be all spoiled.
Out of professional habits, Megumi cooks all these ingredients into a delicacy.
Originally, I thought that I would put all the processed food in the crisper and leave it for the boss to heat up and enjoy it directly when he came back. But it's not right to think about it again, how did the boss come back and find that it was obviously an ingredient but it had become cooked food, isn't this a big loophole?
Also, what to do?
I ate it.
Therefore, the title of "Dinner of the Intruders" came like this.
The three of them enjoyed a feast and then once again planned to wash up and leave.
However, Chanae suddenly heard a voice coming from the storage room.
Someone?
Yes, there really is something else
The second reversal has arrived.
It turned out that when the three of them walked out of the boss's house for the first time, they came in again to do cleaning. A thief came into the house, Yosuke Shigemamatsu (played by Ikematsu Zhuangliang).
This Yosuke was originally also a small boss of a company, but the company went bankrupt and owed a lot of debts, and there was no way to make a comeback, so he had to become a delivery boy and deliver food on a bicycle all day long.
The experience of this Yosuke is really similar to that of many white-collar workers in China, and in the economic recession, he was forced to have no choice but to engage in takeaway or Didi.
In the process of delivering takeaways, Yosuke often deals with the female boss Natsumi, and judging from the residence, the female boss's family must be very rich. So, I planned to sneak in when no one was around, steal some valuable things, and go away to support my comeback.
When Yosuke came to Natsumi's house, it happened to be the first time that Akiko, Megumi, and Kana Megumi came out of the boss's house, and they passed by, and no one noticed anyone.
After Yosuke entered, he didn't have time to rummage through things, but Akiko, Megumi, and Kana Hui came back again, and when Yosuke judged that they were his peers, he watched the three of them clean up, cook, and eat. Yosuke had no choice but to hide quietly in the collection room, trying to find time to sneak out.
As a result, when Chanae was packing up her things, Yosuke turned around in order to avoid it, accidentally touched the doll on the table, and made a sound. Kana Hui brought Akiko and Megumi Xunsheng to find him, found Yosuke, and tied him up with a joint effort, and put duct tape on his mouth.
And just like that, things changed.
Originally, the three of them were going to leave directly after packing up their things, but suddenly there was a big man, still a thief, how to deal with this?
It is absolutely impossible to call the police, after all, the three of them are also illegal trespassers, and what they did is also immoral.
If you don't call the police, you just go away, and you can't tie up the thief there, after all, it will be a week before the boss comes back, and he will starve to death by then. This is tantamount to them committing homicide, and they can't do it.
It's not okay to let it go directly, in case he unties the rope, he is a big man and strikes back, and the three weak women may not be opponents.
What to do? What to do?
Otherwise, take him with you, take him to a road outside the city, throw him on the side of the road, and walk away on your own. In this way, before the thief starves to death, he will definitely be found and saved. And even if he was rescued, it would be difficult for him to say what was going on, because it would expose him as a thief.
It seems that this is the best way to go.
But it's definitely not okay to help walk, the security guard of the apartment is still very responsible, once it is discovered, but it can't eat and walk.
Then go find a big box. The boss doesn't have such a big cardboard box at home. So, Megumi went downstairs to the trash can to find the big cardboard box.
As a result, the third big reversal came.
You know what.
Natsumi, she, she, she's back!
I almost didn't collide with Megumi.
Freaked Megumi, hurried upstairs. At this time, Akiko and Kanae were also frightened.
The three of them teamed up to put Yosuke in the big cabinet under the TV, and then Megumi, Akiko, and Megumi Kana also hid separately.
It can only be said that the rich man's home is really big, and so many people hide in it without being discovered.
Natsumi changed into her home clothes and sunk herself into the couch, and sure enough, she didn't notice the presence of anyone else.
It turned out that Natsumi was only going on a business trip on Sunday, but Megumi remembered the day as that day. It was Friday.
What to do?
The three of them discussed for a long time in a group chat on their mobile phones, and finally came to the conclusion that they hid in this house for two days until the boss left, and then quietly came out, and then everything went according to plan.
However, plans have not kept up with the changes.
The fourth big reversal is coming.
While Natsumi was sitting on the couch watching TV, Yosuke rolled out of the TV cabinet.
Think about it. When you are lying on the sofa leisurely, eating snacks and watching TV, suddenly a big man rolls out of the cabinet under the TV, still tied up. This kind of accident is really a huge accident, the kind that is so unexpected that it is frightening.
Natsumi, of course, was frightened.
She cautiously approached Yosuke and tore off the tape that sealed her mouth. Yosuke said please help me, I was kidnapped by the bad guys.
Natsumi said don't move, I'll untie you.
Akiko was frightened, if the thief was untied, wouldn't he be beaten upside down, and he would have become a kidnapper who invaded the private house, which was absolutely unacceptable.
Akiko quickly covered her face and ran out, saying that she should not loosen the tie-up of the person who was tied up, he was a thief and was tied up by us.
Nazumi was taken aback again, why did you suddenly pop out?
No, you're not Akiko Tanaka, I can hear it when I hear it.
When Akiko saw that she was exposed, she had no choice but to show her true face, and called out Megumi, and together they explained to Natsumi and begged for mercy.
Akiko and Megumi said again and again that they were all obsessed with their own ghosts, thinking that the boss was evading taxes, so they wanted to come over to find evidence and want to expose you?
I didn't expect to find no money in your house, only your charity donation book, boss, you are really a good person, we have wronged you.
In order to repay you, we have cleaned your room, please check it out. And, most importantly, we caught this thief for you, which can be regarded as a meritorious service.
Otherwise, boss, please forgive us. Is it okay to ask the boss not to call the police? We will continue to repay you, not only will we not resign in the future, but we will also work harder for you, okay?
Natsumi thought about it, okay, I'll forgive you, and don't call the police, you guys go.
As for the thief Yosuke, under his explanation, he also described how miserable his company's collapse was, and asked Natsumi-sama to forgive me if he had a lot.
Natsumi really chose to understand, promised to let a few people go, and left.
In this way, Akiko, Megumi, and Yosuke walked out of Natsumi's apartment together.
However, Chanae is still in the room!
So, Akiko, Megumi, and Yosuke, who were going to leave, decided to go back again, and Akiko and Megumi wanted to thank the boss again and begged her to let Chana go too. As for Yosuke, he said he was suffocated and just wanted to go back to the toilet.
Just as they were on their way back to their room, Natsumi's house reversed again.
The fifth great reversal is coming.
It turned out that Kanami listened to Natsumi's conversation with Akiko, Megumi, and Yosuke, and heard that Natsumi was willing to forgive them all. So, I also thought about finding a way to slip away, but I really couldn't do it, so I confessed and begged Natsumi to let her go.
However, Chanae suddenly found out from the photos in the room that Natsumi was the mistress who destroyed her marriage, and it was precisely because of Natsumi's appearance that her marriage failed and she had no choice but to divorce.
At this time, Chanae, who originally wanted to seek Natsumi's forgiveness, suddenly became full of hatred for Natsumi and wanted to kill her to take revenge.
The relationship between the two people has suddenly changed 180 degrees.
Kanae found a pair of scissors, them, and came out of the house and pounced on Natsumi.
Natsumi was terrified again. What's going on here?
Obviously three people have left, why did a crazy woman suddenly pop out of the room, and she was arguing to kill me with a murder weapon, what is going on?
Can Megumi Chana kill Nazumi?
Of course not, because the sixth great reversal is coming.
One-on-one, Nazumi, who was in a state of shock with her bare hands, was certainly not an opponent for Chanem, who was angry and holding a murder weapon.
Seeing it, Chanae is about to succeed.
Suddenly, another man appeared in the house, a man. He hugged Chanae and stopped her from committing murder.
Natsumi froze again, who the hell is this?
I have to say it again, the rich man's home is really big, hiding one after another, wave after wave of people.
In other words, the man who suddenly appeared was the security guard of the apartment, Guihong.
It turns out that although this Guihong is old, he is an out-and-out star chaser. He never thought that the apartment he served would actually live in a big star, and it was Natsumi, who he had always liked.
Of course, Kihiro himself knew that he was not worthy of Natsumi, but he felt that if he could take a look at Natsumi's living environment, he would be content.
Finally, after mustering up enough courage, he chose to sneak into Natsumi's house to peek into his idol's home.
Unexpectedly, not long after he came in, Akiko, Megumi, and Kanae followed.
It was too late to leave, and Guihong had no choice but to get under the sofa in the living room.
As a result, when Akiko and Megumi were cleaning the room, because Kanami had been sitting on the sofa practicing yoga, Akiko gave up cleaning the space under the sofa, which made Guihiro hiding below never be discovered.
When this Guihong saw that Chanae was about to commit murder, he didn't care too much, so he quickly got out from under the sofa and hugged Chanahui.
The situation has reached an impasse.
It just so happened that Akiko, Megumi, and Yosuke returned.
Akiko and Megumi hurriedly explained to Natsumi and told Kana that Megumi was with them, but they didn't expect that there was still a relationship between her and Natsumi.
Now, Akiko and Megumi ask Kanae to calm down and stop holding Natsumi responsible, after all, they are already divorced, so let's go their separate ways. And Natsumi, too, forgive Chana, it's not easy for everyone.
While Akiko was communicating with Megumi, Yosuke hurried to the bathroom.
As for Takahiro, after he explained to everyone why he came to this house, everyone thought he was disgusting, too vile, a lewd stalker, a big hooligan.
However, Natsumi finally chose to forgive, and only asked Takahiro not to do this in the future.
In the end, Akiko, Megumi, Kana Megumi, Yosuke, and Kihiro all walked out of Natsumi's house.
Then, break up and say goodbye.
Everyone thinks that Natsumi is really a good person, and he actually chose to forgive all of them, which is really magnanimous.
But is this true?
Finally, the seventh great reversal came.
Is Natsumi a good person?
Not really.
She did evade taxes. Moreover, for the first wave of Yosuke who appeared in front of her one after another, the second wave of Kiko and Megumi, and then the third wave of Kana Megumi, and finally Takahiro. These people appeared in waves and waves, but she was annoyed to death, and I wanted to arrest them all.
But she had to forgive them all. Because, Akiko has already said that the reason why she came is to find evidence of her tax evasion.
As long as the police arrest Yahiko and they are tried in the first trial, then the evidence of tax evasion will definitely be mentioned. Well, the stupid Akiko can't find evidence, the police are not vegetarians, and they will definitely find out. At that time, it was completely over.
In order not to deal with the police, I can only choose to forgive, let these rotten people in front of me get out of here quickly, and let everything be calm.
Can it be calm?
Now that the matter has happened, there is definitely no way to calm it down.
Then, the eighth great reversal came.
It turned out that in the gap between Yosuke going to the toilet, he stole the money left by Natsumi's tax evasion.
It turned out that in order to hide her traces, Natsumi exchanged all the 300 million yuan of tax evasion into gold, and then made them into dolls and put them on the table in the storage room.
Remember the sound Yosuke made when he first appeared?
Yes, yes, he just turned around and slammed one of the dolls to the ground. The doll broke, revealing gold.
But at that time, Yosuke didn't know that it was the gold of tax evasion.
Later, in a series of communications, he learned about tax evasion and learned that Natsumi's doll was gold.
The second time he came back, the so-called toilet was nothing more than a pretext. Instead, taking advantage of the noisy crowd in the living room, he secretly went over and put a bunch of dolls into the pocket of his sweatshirt.
How did it come to light?
Outside Natsumi's house, the more Guihiro thought about it, the more he felt that he was too obscene and despicable, and he must report the crime and turn himself in.
Yosuke has already taken the money into his own hands, and of course he doesn't want to make trouble anymore, so he doesn't want Guihong to turn himself in.
Guihong must go, he feels that his conscience can't get by.
In the middle of the pull, a pure gold doll fell out of Yosuke's pocket.
Guihong looked at it, you are still a thief, then this is not good.
So he yelled to catch Yosuke.
Yosuke will run, and Kihiro will shout. Then Akiko, Megumi, and Kana Megumi didn't go far and stopped Yosuke.
Next, it was the police who stepped in.
The story has finally reached the finale.
As a rotten person who evades taxes, Natsumi naturally has to be severely punished by the law.
As for Akiko, Megumi, and Kanahui, because they didn't receive any punishment, they became good girlfriends, often ate together, and lived a poor but happy life.
Not.
In this way, a fun story ends, full of joy everywhere, full of small warmth, making this story fresh, chic, and interesting.
It can only be said that the screenwriting ability of the stupid rhythm is too strong.
The performances of several actors are also very interesting, Rinko Kikuchi is very unexpected, the style has changed, and it has become very homely and life-like, but the performance is still as good as ever. The most unexpected thing is that Chi Song is strong, he is good at playing a knight in ancient costumes, but he has become an obscene thief, the changes are so big that people can't imagine it, but he still does it quite well.
All in all, everything was fine.
Let's go and see it.
Well.
