Comedy "Soldiers of failure." Actors of the cinema satire

The comedy "Soldiers of Failure" is the frankly daring, desperately witty, bold project of Ben Stiller, who this time tried on four images: the lead artist, the director, the co-author of the script and the co-producer.

Exemplary satire

"Soldiers of failure" (the actors of the first plan: B. Stiller, R. Downey Jr., D. Black) - the film, frankly, is not for everyone. The project is a rare, perfect example of satire, in which everything has been reconciled to the smallest detail, it is difficult to designate it as an entertaining movie for a wide audience, it is, rather, a treat for true film-makers. There are a lot of borrowings, hints, quotes, specially mentioned names in it, therefore, in order to properly perceive the overall atmosphere of the picture and evaluate the idea of the creators, one needs to be a bit in the topic.

The tape is a true satire-parody of the factory of Dreams, film production in general, military war films, it's not God who knows what the actors are, and so on. And the satire is very tough, virtually ruthless and specially absolutely politically incorrect. With such a definition of the subtext of the movie "Soldiers of failure" actors invited to the shooting, did not immediately reconcile, but the director allowed each performer to turn around bravely.

Plot

The narrative narrative of the comedy "Soldiers of failure", the actors and roles of which were selected by each other personally by Ben Stiller, from the first minutes of the timing introduces the viewer to the main characters. The harsh producer Les Grossman (actor Tom Cruise) manages to find financing for a large-scale production, so the famous Hollywood artisan Damien Cockburn (Steve Coogan) sits in the chair and the casting begins. The creators of the main roles are chosen meticulously, but they claim the most famous: the performer of the role of the main acting character in the action-epic of "The Fever" by Tagg Speedman (actor Ben Stiller), the multiple Oscar-winner Kirk Lazarus (actor Robert Downey Jr.), the outstanding comic actor Jeff Portnoy (Actor Jack Black) and the star of rap culture Alpa Chino (actor Brandon Ty Jackson). For each participant of filming this tape is the last chance to radically change its current life situation. Further, to describe the development of the plot without spoilers is impossible, in any case, for complete understanding it is better to personally watch the comedy "Soldiers of failure". Actors, the photos of which are decorated with a poster of comedy, really surpassed themselves, came off to the full.

Actors and roles

The actors of the film "Soldiers of Failure" showed the viewer new facets of his acting talent. Ben Stiller, perhaps, somewhat interfered with the direction, to his level of acting, you can find fault. The film critics had the impression that his character did not have enough, although he was beaten professionally and fairly soundly. The acting mastery of Robert Downey Jr., the overwhelming majority of spectators led to genuine delight. Not only that, he appeared in the image of a changed sergeant's color (black), he also pronounces phrases with the voice of the inhabitant of Harlem, and these two facts in the picture famously obeshtebyvayutsya. Another character in the film caused surprise and admiration for the audience - shark producer Les Grossman, performed by Tom Cruise. And understand that before you Tom Cruise is impossible. Grossman is a fat bald man of indeterminate age, with a hardcore cynic, a boor and a proud man. Unequivocally, we can safely say that the main advantage of the film "Soldiers of failure" - the actors.

Summary

It is not worth while concentrating on the film to concentrate on a disgustingly naturalistic picture or scabrous jokes. Embodying the idea of the director, starring in the movie "Soldiers of failure", the actors presented to the viewer a picture of their hard actor's share, phobias and complexes, pursuing every master of the scene. The film primarily about this, and only after - it's banter, satire and undisguised mockery of the society. Ultimately, humor is not limited to the framework of correctness and polished by the special commission on morality. Recently, the comedic genre does not surprise the spoiled viewer much, but the comedy "Soldiers of failure" returns faith in the bright future of the oldest kinozhanov.
