Ryan Gosling's new film "Stunt Maniac" premiered, and the audience burst into laughter. Not because the director of the movie is awesome and the star is big, but because of this one
The word-of-mouth ban on Rotten Tomatoes for "Stunt Maniacs" has been lifted, so let me take you to see what critics say about this movie and why it can create so many laughs in theaters.
Since Rotten Tomatoes gives good reviews to the vast majority, let's take a look at the good reviews first.
A film critic at Subculture Entertainment, in his review on Rotten Tomatoes, wrote: "Stunt Maniac is a truly amazing movie. This shows that a popcorn movie can also have a touch of excitement while entertaining the audience. Stunt Maniac is a relentless journey that combines action, romance and excitement that doesn't disappoint. ”
The second to give a good review was a critic from Newshub, who commented: "Honestly, I'm as shocked as you are that I love every moment in the movie in this movie, I love the action in the romance, I love the comedy in the movie, and I pay tribute to the filmmakers who made the film. ”
There are film critics who like the movie, and there are those who are dismissive of "Stunt Maniac". For example, the critics of Screen Zealots gave the movie a bad review.
In her review, she wrote: "It's a disappointing project, which can be summed up like this: great stunts, weak script. Even though there are some funny moments throughout the film, there's not enough here to bring out the film's full potential. ”
The relationship between "Stunt Maniac" and "Fast Pursuit".
The script of "Stunt Maniac" was evaluated as weak, which is understandable. Because when director David Leitch created this film, he was based on dangerous stunts and supplemented by storyline.
The film was advertised as a love letter to stuntmen. Director David Leitch used to be a stuntman.
He has a clear love for film sets and industry expertise, which drove him to direct this film. Stunt Maniac is a product of an era. Because Hollywood, and even major award ceremonies, are paying more and more attention to the achievements of stuntmen behind the scenes.
David Leitch and another Hollywood stuntman, Chad Starhelsky, co-directed the first film of The Furious. Therefore, "Stunt Maniac" is more or less a bit like "Fast Pursuit", which only takes action and does not follow the plot.
As promised, including record-breaking car rolls, thrilling hand-to-hand combat, and speedboat jumps, among other things. This is a movie that is well suited for the big screen.
At the same time, the audience's attention will be more focused on dazzling stunts.
"Stunt Maniac" can be boiled down to being a movie that pays homage to stuntmen, but the story is easy to get off board.
