爆星从社会政治意义上讲毫无疑问这是十年来最伟大的喜剧剧集但真正让它stand out的不仅是对时政的“针砭时弊”而是它把这个时代所有维度所有方式的疯狂都写进去了不仅是疯狂的政治更是这个时代疯狂的民众它让我觉得政治就是放大人类劣根性的万花筒所有的贪婪、鄙夷、龌龊和伪善WWWXXX在这里都因为“正当”的gameplay而被justified更牛逼的是抛开意义it's simply genius writing.我从没看过一部能把单纯喜剧和政治表达结合这么好的剧集因为他比单纯喜剧和单纯政治表达都难写太多最后这是标准的perfect TV series writing整整七季核心format从未变过但内容水准从未受影响这比任何电影和迷你剧等短时闭环剧本都难写的多执行得太好了
In terms of cast, it has to be said that Gary Oldman looks nothing like Herman Mankiewicz. The olde visuals seem to be the main reason to watch this film, and its this smokey, shadowy, cigarette-burnt, ’40s aesthetic that’s the film’s only positive. The fact that a film about a writer (which intermittently includes script elements) isn’t particularly well written is ironic to say the least. This is basically another love letter to Hollywood’s “great” past like Quentin Tarantino‘s similarly critically overrated shite-fest OUATIH. It's a black and white ode to a period of time that only a select few give a toss about; it’s made for film students, cinephiles, and pompous critics.
