It would be foolish to great thing about the Cuban Fury, which is a kind of pleasant change from the poster already tells you everything you need to know about the movie making. I'm not sure I've even seen a poster for the film, but let me guess: It is probably Nick Frost in a red shirt makes a kind of exaggerated salsa move while Rashida Jones and Chris O'Dowd cause at the same time somewhere in the vicinity, and Ian McShane swarthily stares into the background. (Okay, I just checked, and apparently is not Ian McShane on the poster.) Anyway, it's pretty much the movie. Nevertheless, it has a few features that might surprise you.
It begins with a flashback montage of our hero Bruce childhood, when he was captured the Salsa fever and at a competitive dancer, racking up trophy after trophy. ("Cuban heels,
silk shirt, a thousand hand-sewn sequins ... Once I had the fire behind me, it never went out!") But on the night of one of his biggest races, Bruce was by a group of bullies called him a pussy attacked . Humiliated, he was dancing and withdrew into himself. Surgery shows that young, smooth salsa champion has to be an adult obese, Nick Frost, the heartbreaking in a miserable office work.
Great things can grow in unlikely places, however, and one day wobbles Bruce new boss, Julia (Rashida Jones). She is beautiful, friendly, and take a genuine interest in him. But Bruce working partner, unnatural and oversexed confident Drew (Chris O'Dowd), it is also noticed by Julia, and as soon as the wisecracking banter between two friends has become a sad romantic competition. Well, that would be competitive, only Bruce gives his life pretty much immediately. "He's not my world," he admits Wanly, Drew victory was over his crimes sexual innuendo. (Leering Julie, the latter declared triumphantly:
"I'd insider information, injected as milk truck at the wall.")
But then discovered that Bruce Julie is a salsa dance fiend. And slowly he begins to come out of the shell, secretly starts to train again and restore the old trains, all the time in the fight against the ticking clock Drew relentless libido. We know the model: Even a mandatory, bitter, alcoholic former coach (McShane) appears out of the woodwork. Meanwhile, our hero starts going out to clubs with her new boyfriend Bejan (Kayvan Novak), a young flamboyant Iran, which renders the 80s movie references he gives Bruce a makeover.
But the Cuban Fury is surprisingly approved a blast with these stereotypes. At times the film the energy newscaster style is fraud - hilarious late in the film a dance-off between Bruce and Drew accepts the absurd nuances, they dance on the roofs of cars and moved more impossible. But all of that is also attractive from the emotional weight of a portion of the frost. He wrote the story, but his character and try to slow the world's Broken Dreams
contrary to the general movie stream unhinged rise parody. It is interesting to see these actors play a character so helpless and childlike. His collaboration with Simon Pegg, he tends to be a savvy, if you cheated; here he is pathetic. And when he made a name playing Fat Guy, I've never understood how the physical actor seems Frost on His weight literally move the emotions. (Later in the film, when he returns to his ability to dance salsa, I could swear the guy had dropped 50 pounds between shots.)
At the same time director James Griffiths fill the screen with a deep red and the long shadows, the better to express the greenhouse erotic salsa. If you dance films are almost always really our hero or heroine, a girl and / or boy to get, makes Cuban Fury the reference frame for tactile: As the film grows optically dark when the lights go out and circling, spinning dancers urge the screen, the dance actually comes, as they say vertical expression of a horizontal desire. And you find that strange film, knowing mixture of seriousness and silliness Fit laugh in Salsa proprietary blend of exaggeration and desire, and lust.
