Director Michael Daus in 2011 decided to "grab luck by the tail!" and shot a sports comedy film with a savory R rating, full of original American humor, appropriate obscenity and provocative moments, under the eloquent title "Bouncer". The actors to participate in the production of the film were selected accordingly: the star of the epic "American Pie" Seann William Scott became the lead actor, the inimitable Eugene Levy was invited to enhance the effect, Jay Baruchel was selected for the role of the main character's friend, and the role of romantic interest was taught to realize the actress, the least suitable by the classic canons of the genre, Alison Pill.
The film has an IMDb rating of 6.80, and all foreign film critics position it as a movie about rough and uncompromising hockey outrage.
Violence and romance
Comedy "Bouncer", the actors and roles of which are harmoniously matched by types to each other, is a dashing mix of exciting fights, hilarious humor, a funny romantic line and all kinds of genre clichés in the stylesports drama.
By the way, the romantic line in Daus's movie is extraordinary, unusually non-classical, therefore incredibly sweet. The relationship between the heroes of Alison Pill and Seann William Scott looks so realistic and sincere that it is very pleasant to watch the development of the love line. The romantic component of the picture is a certain contrast between love and violence, which allows the tape to look at ease and bright, perfectly cope with its main entertainment function.
Head Bouncer
The film "Bouncer" the actors involved in the filming process, perceived as an opportunity to change the bored roles. The clearest example of this is the male lead Seann William Scott, who gladly changed the role of a rampant eccentric to a rather modest image of Doug. The character at certain moments resembles a down, on the one hand, hiding behind his mother's skirt, on the other, always ready to fight.
Doug, trying to live by the law and achieve personal success, is afraid to break away from his family, to make meaningful and independent actions of an adult. Scott, using the full acting potential, skillfully conveys the image and characteristics of his hero to the viewer. His game is not phenomenal, more experienced actors of the film "Bouncer" sometimes overshadowed the lead actor.
But Seann's character is not only funny to look at, he is strong enough and quickly wins over the viewer, despite the dubious moral impact of the tape. Liev Schreiber and JayBaruchel helped the lead actor to reveal himself in a new role, and they themselves made an indelible impression on the viewer. Without Scott, The Bouncer would have felt completely different. The actors were amazed at his inexhaustible optimism and diligence.
Actor casting
According to film critics, the strongest side of the Michael Daus project is not a somewhat flat plot and vulgar humor, but a strong cast, which pleases with its approach to work throughout 92 minutes of running time. The actors pulled the picture "Bouncer" to a decent level. And this is not only the merit of the charismatic Seann Scott.
Liv Schreiber, the same Victor - the brother of Wolverine, known to the viewer from the tapes "Kate and Leo", "Omen" and "Movie 43", looks like such an "Irish bull", causing male solidarity, to which immediately respect is felt. The filmography of the actress Alison Pill has about 60 projects, among which the most famous are "Midnight in Paris", "In Focus", "Roman Adventures", so it was not difficult for her to transform into the image of one of those open and lively girls who cause sincere sympathy.
