Plot"Perfect Strangers" movie comment ary copy
Couples should never look at each other's phones
Nowadays, smartphones are developing rapidly
It inevitably becomes an important place for people's privacy
Cell phones, as the most personal and private items of modern people, carry so many things
We use cell phones to express our happiness, anger, sadness, and hide our most intimate secrets
It is even a microcosm of our own personality
Do you dare to give your phone to your lover or friend to look at freely?
For most people, the answer is obviously "no."
Cell phone is like a "time bomb" that can explode at any time
When we can't leave our phones
The phone has become our second personality, giving it up means giving up ourselves
However, there is such a group of people who are deadly
Must get together to play a multiplayer game
This is the movie "Perfect Strangers" that we are going to talk about today
This Italian movie was very popular when it was released back then
It became one of the most popular movies of the year
It has been remade in eight or nine countries
The reason is that it is very much in line with our reality, using cell phones as a breakthrough
A series of spicy "love horror stories"
The movie has seven main characters, three couples and a lonely man
They have a party with friends tonight
The first couple, the driver, Uncle Grey, and the veterinarian, Sister Wong, are newlyweds
It's the time to be hot
The second couple are the hosts of the evening
Uncle Blue, a plastic surgeon, and Sister Red, a psychiatrist
They are arguing over the education of their daughter who has just entered the rebellious stage
The third couple, Lawyer Man and Green, are already an old married couple
They have a son and a daughter and live with their mother-in-law
The conflict between their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law and their boredom with each other are making their life in crisis
The last one is Fatty, a teacher who is not working
He said his other half had a problem and couldn't come today
He had to be there by himself
Tonight is the night of the lunar eclipse
The process of the lunar eclipse also hints at the advancement of the movie's plot
As the eclipse begins, the party begins.
Everyone was laughing and joking around the gossip, teasing each other and discussing "if you know your friend is cheating on you
Whether to tell your friend's lover" the topic
If you choose to tell, you are responsible for the other person, but you will end up with the name of a snitch.
Not to tell it does not seem good
Uncle Blue said, a text message can destroy a family
Uncle Grey also felt, if this kind of thing can be done cleanly
Instead of leaving clues in the phone, it would not have caused the tragedy
Sister Huang heard her husband say such words expressed disbelief and a little unhappy
From this, psychologist Sister Hong came up with a game
Nowadays, people are hiding too many secrets in their cell phones
She proposed a game of truth or dare, where everyone would put their phones on the table
Share every message and phone call that comes in during the party
As a result, the men started to talk about everything.
The women tried to find a way to say they were not afraid
After a bit of debate, the women won and the game was on
Soon there were text messages coming in, and the first one was Uncle Grey
A warm message popped up in his phone
The crowd immediately put on a look of eating melons watching the show
Huang asked her husband to explain what the hell is going on
And Uncle Grey was also confused
Immediately after, the number called the phone
Sister Huang immediately forced the phone is a hands-free
(Hello? Who is it?)
No response
(Your father I)
I didn't expect it was Uncle Lan calling from his daughter's cell phone, which was a complete prank.
The atmosphere was suddenly much lighter, Sister Huang to ease the embarrassment
Sister Huang to ease the embarrassment, claiming that he has long seen through a joke and opposite the green sister said you do not play
Green sister a few glasses of wine, began to hack between them has no husband and wife life
And yellow sister is still working hard to make a baby, and said to toast another cup
And a side of the fat questioned, life is not without children is not wonderful
While we were discussing the topic of children, the second phone rang
Fatty's sister called to introduce him to a foreign job, but he refused
Then the red group's phone rang
Her father helped to find a plastic surgeon to do her breast surgery
People wonder why a psychiatrist as a profession has to do this kind of surgery
Besides, Hong's husband, Uncle Lan, is a plastic surgeon, so why should she go far away from home?
The first time she gave a lot of excuses, she finally said
I don't want my husband, Uncle Lan, to do this surgery because I'm afraid he'll lose interest in himself
Not to mention that Uncle Lan never approved of the job of Sister Hong's psychiatrist
At this point, the topic was forcibly put to a halt
Fatty and the lawyer went to the balcony for a smoke, when the lunar eclipse was already halfway through
The dark part gradually takes over, suggesting that everyone's disguise will be torn apart
The film is coming to a climax
The lawyer confesses to Fatty that he has a female friend
Every night at ten o'clock, she sends a selfie photo
10 o'clock is coming soon, and that photo must not be seen by his wife
Because he and Fatty have the same phone model
So the lawyer begged Fatty to do him this favor and exchange phones for a while
Fatty wanted to refuse, but in the end, out of friendship and morality
Ready to help the lawyer this favor
Meanwhile, Sister Green also approached Sister Red
Tell her that Uncle Lan is hiding her from other psychologists
As we said before, Sister Hong is a psychiatrist herself
This is the same as she went far to another plastic surgeon for surgery
At that moment, Uncle Grey's phone rang a text message
It read "Marika: call back, it's urgent!
According to them, Marika is the dispatcher of the cab company
Probably to call Uncle Grey to temporarily fill in for the shift
Sister Huang took the initiative to explain that Uncle Grey would not like the dispatcher
Because she is too plump and tattooed
Another sharp vibration, Fatty's phone reminded him to do exercise
Just when he was exercising in front of the crowd to attract attention
The lawyer secretly switched the phone
Sister Hong inadvertently spilled wine on Uncle Lan and they left the table to deal with it
Uncle Lan apologized to Sister Hong and wanted to make compromises in the relationship
He was willing to change himself
At ten o'clock, the photo arrived as promised, a selfie of great scale
Fatty took the blame for the lawyer while laughing
Everyone was mocking his "heavy-handedness"
Shortly after, the lawyer received a message on his fat phone
It was from a man, "How are you?
He didn't know how to respond but said it was his colleague
And fatty suddenly reacted fiercely at this time
came to turn a rousing speech to try to cover up the matter
Just after the words, Green's cell phone received a text message from the nursing home to notify the availability of beds
It turned out that she had been planning to send her mother-in-law to a nursing home and not to support her personally
This caused the lawyer to argue with her on the spot
To ease the successive awkward arguments
Huang proposed that we go to the balcony to watch the lunar eclipse and take a group photo together
And just when the group photo was being taken
Her phone floated to her ex-boyfriend's deadly text message "(I want to ML)"
From this point on, the whole movie officially comes to the climax of the whole crew tearing each other apart
Uncle Grey angrily questioned Sister Huang, who could only call over the phone to prove her innocence
It turns out that the ex had problems in the relationship
Just come to Huang to complain, everything is a misunderstanding
Uncle Gray thinks the misunderstanding is a misunderstanding, but he will never have anything to do with his ex again
Sister Huang apologized and said that if this would make Uncle Grey unhappy
Then he can also do not contact his ex in the future
After that, Uncle Blue received a call from his daughter, who was asked out by her boyfriend
Sister Red on the side put on a foul face
And Uncle Blue expressed his support for his daughter's decision
(This is the most important moment in your life)
(It's something you'll remember for the rest of your life)
(It's not just something you can talk about with your friends tomorrow)
(If you think about it later)
（"Whenever you think about it, it will bring a smile to your lips)
（"Just do it)
（But you don't think so or you're not sure)
（"Then forget about it)
（Because you still have plenty of time)
This is also the warmest part of the whole movie, but the warmth is not much
Uncle Blue concealed the fact that Sister Red was looking for a psychiatrist was exposed
In fact, this is a secret that the whole audience knows. But Uncle Blue still thinks no one knows
This couple is also really a good match to the extreme
The wife hid the plastic surgery from her husband to find someone else
The husband hid the psychotherapy from his wife to find someone else for psychotherapy
Then, they were all surprised by the mysterious
The mysterious man in the lawyer's (Fatty) phone who kept sending warm messages was attracted
The other party even called, and due to the rules of the game, the lawyer had to pick up
(Hello)
(Why does your voice sound so low? I remember you have a fever)
(Why are you still out?)
（"There's nothing to say, is there?)
（"You know what, you're a bad guy)
（"You can't make a choice)
（You don't know what you really want)
（You can't even tell if you like men or women)
The crowd looked at each other, this melon obviously shocked the whole room
The lawyer kept explaining that he was not gay, while the green sister was on the verge of collapse
The scene is uncontrollable, and then the more explosive text message came again
This is now jumped into the yellow river also can not wash, the whole scene is identified lawyer is gay
helpless, the lawyer can only play to the end
Uncle Gray also broke down, he can not accept his 20 years of iron buddy
He could not accept that his best friend for more than 20 years was gay and never told himself
However, this also makes the lawyer feel disheartened and feel that he has made the wrong friend
How can you discriminate against someone because of such things
green sister again to her husband angry, no wonder there is no married life
So you like men! A side of the fat look at the eyes, the heart has long been cold
At this point, there is a new melon to divert the fire
Uncle Grey received a phone call from a jewelry store, asking whether the earrings purchased earlier were satisfactory
Sister Huang doubted she never wears earrings
Not even ear piercing Uncle Grey buy it why?
The phone rang again, it was the dispatcher who called before
The person on the other end actually said she was pregnant
Very nervous... This sudden devastating blow, so that Sister Huang directly collapse
Another pavement buried along the way also exploded at this time
Sister Hong pulled Uncle Grey aside and took off the earrings and gave them back to him
It turns out that Uncle Grey is a person with three boats
No wonder Sister Hung suggested we play this game at the beginning
Because she was Uncle Grey's cheating partner
She thought that if the two people did not send messages to each other at this time, they would not be discovered
She could also secretly eat other people's melon with sour taste
She didn't realize that she was only one of the three boats
This is really a good reincarnation of God, the heavens around who ah
There is a dark line in the movie that shows
Sister Hong went for plastic surgery because Uncle Grey liked that feeling
And Uncle Blue actually knew about the two of them long ago
This he hinted at the beginning of the game before
This is also the reason why he went to see another psychiatrist
Green side also drew fire, someone on the social software to send her warm messages
The Green team explained that it was just a game she played with her online friends for fun
But under the continuous questioning of the lawyer, Green also plans to break the pot
She revealed a secret from many years ago, that she had killed a man in a DUI accident.
But the lawyer took the blame for her, and is now fighting the lawsuit
That's why the two are drifting apart
Green was living with a guilty conscience and couldn't stand it anymore
(We never talked about it)
（"As if it never happened)
（"The only thing that keeps us together now is my guilt.)
（"It's the guilt you've given me all these years)
（Why we don't get a divorce)
There are many details ahead that hint at Green's addiction to alcohol
Fatty saw the chaos in front of him
He told the truth that he was gay and had just switched phones with his lawyer
Faced with doubts, the lawyer stood up for him
Everyone thinks he is an open-minded person
But in reality, they are not tolerant and easily discriminate
Little fat because of this identity is difficult to walk, more afraid to confess cheating with friends
But after tonight, he saw the true face of everyone
No longer want to have anything to do with everyone
Sister Huang broke down in the toilet for a while, the crowd went to understand the situation
I didn't realize that she had already let go and decided to give up the marriage
The party, where everyone was hurt in turn, ended happily
At this time the eclipse is over, but the movie suddenly came to a reversal
It turns out that everything just happened in the parallel time built by the lunar eclipse
In real life, the party was simple and pleasant, and no one's secret was discovered
Everyone continues to live their lives as before
Red still has the earrings Uncle Grey gave her
Uncle Blue told her why she didn't want to play the game
But there are too many secrets in everyone's phone, some of which are not suitable to be exposed
Because the relationship between people is fragile
In the end, they give a happy ending and they both make some changes
This is the end of the movie
It can be said that "Perfect Strangers" is a real love horror movie
A bitter battle between friends and friends, lovers and lovers
Unfolding in parallel time and space on the night of a lunar eclipse
Revealing how bad the secrets hidden underneath the seemingly happy relationships are
The film uses a script full of intricate details
Deconstructs people's intimate relationships
This film uses a script full of intricate details to deconstruct people's intimate relationships in order to uncover the fractures that can easily occur between people
From beginning to end, the film maintains a lingering dramatic tension
One after another, reversals and tensions fill the dinner party
Three couples, all seemingly in love with each other
But beneath their seemingly amiable surfaces are explosive problems
Each of them has set up a real "false persona" for themselves.
Each person has his or her own representation
And the cell phone has become the last protective film of their respective "persona"
They are the most real side, but they also continue to reveal their inner self
Today, chat records, shopping records
Every app keeps all the records of users perfectly
This is a microcosm of the data relationship between our phones and us
Perfect Strangers" shows the rapid changes of human interactions
Like a sharp scalpel without emotion
Ruthlessly cutting into the false illusion of middle-class life
Come closer, or we won't get a shot of you
Are you all in the shot? Smile.
That's the end of the story for today.
