This light-hearted, light-hearted comedy adventure film with romance elements tells the wild story of a well-known novelist who is kidnapped by treasure hunters. Following the fate of the heroes, we can move with them to mysterious, tropical corners of the world.
Another funny and light story
The well-known and popular Hollywood star, Sandra Bullock, does not slow down and returns to us again with another mega-production in which she plays the main role. In the film by Aaron and Adam Nee, Bullock plays the role of a successful woman – Loretta, a famous novelist. The main character experiences extraordinary adventures when she is kidnapped by treasure hunters. Together with Alan (Channing Tatum), who comes to her rescue and is also the model from the covers of her books, they set out to find the artifact, wanting to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands of the seekers. The plot is filled with humor and shallow jokes that give the film a cerebral feel. The viewer does not have to concentrate too much to understand the content of the story. A film full of suspenseful action, sometimes so irrational that it’s hard to believe that the hero made it out alive, makes you think that this is another production that will not be remembered by the viewers. The binding element is the constant special effects, explosions, exploding cars, etc., aimed at focusing the viewer’s attention and causing surprise.
A star-studded movie
What definitely catches people’s attention and encourages them to see this film is the cast, which is full of famous names. In addition to the aforementioned Sandra Bullock and Channing Tatum, there are also such stars as: Daniel Radcliffe, Brad Pitt and Oscar Nuñez. It is certainly pleasant and pleasant for the viewer, because he knows or at least knows most of the actors playing the main characters, but is it ultimately a good choice to put so many famous names in one film? In the case of this production, with a huge budget, it is a procedure that is intended to interest the viewer and make him reach for this position. As the story is quite typical and clichéd, it is the well-known names that arouse the interest of the viewers.
Beautiful views and scenery
The obvious advantage is the beautiful locations where the film was shot. In addition, the special effects and the entire scenography are breathtaking and are an element pleasing to the eye. The viewer can delve into the mysterious corners of the tropical regions of the world. The jungle, beautiful beaches, islands certainly fit well and complement the crazy adventure of the main characters. It is worth mentioning that the film was shot in the Dominican Republic: in Samana, Santo Domingo and Casa de Campo, so most of the beautiful views that we can see on the screen are real places. All these locations relax and put the viewer in a pleasant mood, thanks to which the reception of the film becomes more pleasant and easier. A man can enter the world of heroes and move with them to these fairy-tale tropics, taking their minds off everyday matters and problems.
Easy, simple and fun
Ultimately, it must be admitted that this is a successful film, undemanding and guaranteeing good fun. It keeps you in suspense, but also provides a dose of good humor. Beautiful shots and a star cast ensure that watching this film is pure pleasure and relaxation. I recommend you consider this position when you need it.
