Movie Info

Nearly every romantic comedy is about a hero with two women in his life. There is the one he marries; and the one he was supposed to marry before meeting the much more sensitive, kind, appreciative girl. You know, the one without the rich "daddy" who will give the hero a job once he weds his daughter. In this movie, the hero gets engaged to the wrong woman, then he dates the right one, and then somehow ends up at the altar with the wrong one. Oh yeah, and this movie has the whole boat trip plot that is so bad I was actually hoping for (uncalled for low-blow) Rob Schneider to show up. After all, it is a gay cruise, right?

Jerry (Cuba Gooding Jr.) and Nick (Horatio Sanz) are best friends. These guys have the initial ability to be a great comedic duo, then again so did our bumbling idiots in Kangaroo Jack. The chemistry is there, but God forbid you'd give them a decent script to work with.

Jerry is a single guy because he recently regurgitated all over his girlfriend, Felicia (Vivica A. Fox). Nick is also a single guy because he is that fat, stupid , token character who isn't supposed to get lucky until he meets the token carnival freak. In order to brighten themselves up, Nick convinces Jerry to accompany him on a singles boat trip. But when they upset the travel agent (Will Ferrell, sadly) they get booked on a seven day gay cruise.

I guess we're supposed to laugh when we see Nick and Jerry board the homosexual boat expecting to meet beautiful girls. As they walk on the loading bridge, Nick grabs a crewmember and generically asks, "Between two guys, is there a lot of sweet a-s on this boat?" The crew member confirms and Nick explodes in a ball of giggles.

You think the sight of several men in low-cut shorts and S&M outfits would give away the fact that you're on a gay cruise. But not to our idiot heroes. They only have one thing on the brain, women, and go hours unaware of where they really are. I was expecting the scene revealing the truth about the boat to be somewhat funny, but it couldn't have been anymore dull. As they sit at a bar, a guy walks past them saying, "it's a gay cruise." Our duo looks at each momentarily, and then begins freaking out.

I guess I shouldn't have been expecting anything humorous. But this movie could have easily taken off had it been done right. If I personally had just found myself on a gay cruise, I would ponder the fact that I was a moron for unintentionally getting here, and then I would laugh it off and make an experience worth telling the grandkids about. But Nick and Jerry are so homophobic that it's pathetic. In a way, it probably doesn't help that the movie stereotypes homosexuals beyond any reason. Does every gay man find every man sexually attractive? I don't know, but I find it hard to believe that every gay man would salivate over the hefty figure of Horatio Sanz. The gays in this movie can't get their eyes off the two straight men, and of course Nick and Jerry react worse than if they had been somehow booked on a cruise completely inhabited by brain-eating zombies. Now there’s an idea, a better one anyway.

The plot isn't as bad as the humor, but it comes close. And after I get through writing this paragraph, you'll wonder in horror how the humor could be worse than the plot. In a desperate attempt to get off the boat infested with gay men, Nick fires off a flare gun to get the attention of a passing helicopter. But Nick accidentally sends the chopper crashing into the ocean. A day later, the boat's captain somehow spots the wreckage (even after sailing through the ocean at full-speed) and recovers the passengers, who happens to be the Swedish sun tanning team. Now with beautiful women on board, Nick can go back to being a sexually driven predator. When the team is first spotted in the ocean, the captain commands his crew, but he doesn't say 'deck,' he commands, "all hands on d-ck."

If the 'deck' joke doesn't sound funny, maybe the banana scene will have better luck with you, or a scene where a man's girlfriend excuses herself to go "shave the landing-strip." And now that we have Swedish girls on the boat, the movie can stereotype them, too. Nick moves in, but I forget if it's on Olga, Helga or Inga.

Jerry on the other hand is trying to hook up with the boat's sexy dance instructor, Gabriela (Roselyn Sanchez). When she tells him that she works on the gay cruises because she is tired of dealing with lying straight-men, Jerry pretends to be gay man to eventually get in her pants, the reason that she works on gay cruises in the first place.

Boat Trip is 93 minutes of predictable, unfunny jokes and phallic-related references that would even tire young teens. There is just nothing good about this movie. When it looks like things are beginning to work out between Jerry and Gabrielle, Jerry's ex-girlfriend shows up to reclaim her man after she mistakenly said no to his proposal; setting up the necessary showdown between the two females where the male will have to choose one. And I actually thought that a boat having just taken Jerry hundreds of miles away from the coast would prevent Felicia from returning. How wrong I was, and how bored I was watching Jerry and Felicia at the altar in a latter scene. It will only be a matter of time before this line comes: "she was the one who really loved you, but that doesn't matter anymore. Her plane leaves in five minutes, you'll never make it."

Thankfully, Boat Trip isn't a two-hour production. But if for whatever reason you do find yourself seeing this film, and that you think you might not make it, just listen to the encouraging words from the soundtrack song, "I Will Survive" and know that it does eventually end. The only person who might enjoy this that I can think of, is the chap who actually thinks there's a chance that Jerry won't get the girl in the end, or the guy who optimistically thinks Will Ferrell will make another appearance sometime before the credits, or the guy waiting for the iceberg that never comes.

剧情：
　　这是一个机会，一个抛开罪恶感，重新找回那个善良纯真的自我的机会……故事对焦在上世纪70年代生活在阿富汗的两个孩子--12岁的埃米尔，以及他家的仆人哈桑，两个人是感情很深的好朋友。由于都对风筝有着难以抑制的喜爱，他们瞒着家长参加了斗风筝大赛，其实埃米尔是想给一直独立抚养自己的父亲巴巴一个惊喜，因为他对于巴巴给予了哈桑过多的赞扬和奖励，多多少少有那么一点点嫉妒在心中，可是这些还不足以阻止两个人从小共同长大的深厚友情。然而这一切，都在他们最终赢得斗风筝大赛之后被打得粉碎。鉴于埃米尔过于懦弱胆小，所以他眼睁睁地看着哈桑被一个来自于普什图族的暴徒残忍地强奸，却始终没办法付诸于行动。两人的友谊就此切断，随后埃米尔移民美国，带着缠绕了自己一生的负罪感。
　　2000年，已经是功成名就的知名作家的埃米尔因为对儿时挥之不去的梦魇和记忆，在良心上受到了难以忍受的折磨，所以他毅然从旧金山回到在塔利班残忍的暴权制度统治下、充满了不可预料的危机的阿富汗的首都喀布尔，那个印记了两个人之间的一点一滴的城市，埃米尔决定面对自己的心魔，勇敢地迈出了走向救赎之路的第一步。他要正视长久以来困扰着自己的那些秘密，做最后一次大胆的尝试，希望将一切都重新归进正轨，找回那个被遗失在了过去的自我。
幕后：
【关于原著】
　　2003年，这部由卡勒德·胡赛尼(Khaled Hosseini)创作的处女作《追风筝的人》一经问世，随即以最快的速度突袭至世界各地畅销小说排行榜的榜首位置，即使是4年后的今天，仍然有着非同一般的影响力。小说讲述了一个受到阿富汗文化背景着色的故事，在那个遥远、备受战争折磨的国度，近几十年来，一直都是全球发生冲突的焦点之地，也许你将这样的一个地方作为故事的背景地，确实不太可靠，但《追风筝的人》中所讲述的那些亲情关系、孩童时期的友谊、请求宽恕的勇气以及只能存在于爱当中的救赎的大众主题，无论你身处何处、经历过什么样的文化熏陶、肤色为何，都会被它深深地感动。
　　卡勒德·胡赛尼是一个出生在阿富汗的医师，就像他笔下的主角一样，还是一个小男孩的时候，胡赛尼就离开了阿富汗来到美国，而且几十年来都不曾回去过。所以说，他之所以创作这部《追风筝的人》，完全是想展现给读者一场情感方面的旅程，穿越了不同的大陆，抵达一个男人深处对纠正一个可怕的错误的追求--这是一个困扰了他整整一生的致命失误。胡赛尼利用这样一个悬疑与紧张感占同等地位的故事，灵巧熟练地将个人观点与政_治环境编织在了一起，虽然它根本就是虚构的，但由于作者本人对故事的背景地喀布尔的成长环境的熟悉程度，使其显得很有真实感。尤其他还原的是苏联入侵阿富汗和塔利班政权崛起之前的喀布尔，那个时候的喀布尔还有着“中亚的珍珠”的美誉，再加上胡赛尼移民美国的体验，更加可以让他从内容的人性和现实感着手，深刻地影响了每一位读者。小说在超过34个国家卖出了800万册，正是因为它那强大的故事性，从而跳脱出了文化和国境所带来的限制。
　　对于卡勒德·胡赛尼来说，《追风筝的人》大受欢迎也引起了连锁反应，当然包括这部即将上映的电影改编版本，给他带来了极大的满足感，胡赛尼说：“小说能够引起这么大的动静，我多多少少还是有那么点惊讶的，但回头想想，也就不难理解了。其实人们看重的，相信还是小说营造的那个强烈的情感氛围，这里讲述的主题--罪行、友谊、宽恕、失去以及对于弥补过失的欲望，都可以和你的切身经历联系起来，可以让你成为比想象中更好的那个人。这不是专属于阿富汗的主题，而是有关人性之旅的，无论什么样的种族、文化和宗教背景，都能接受它。”
【关于影片】
　　相信正是因为这些大众化的主题，才使得《追风筝的人》上市没多久就在国际上获得了畅销小说的声誉。事实上，在这本小说还未成形、正处于手稿的阶段时，就已经引起了制片人威廉·霍伯格(William Horberg)和丽贝卡·耶登汉姆(Rebecca Yeldham)的注意了，他们之前都是梦工厂动画部门的合作伙伴。当霍伯格和耶登汉姆读到卡勒德·胡赛尼朴实的语言描述时，他们意识到自己可能已经碰触到了一个非凡的作品，耶登汉姆说：“可以说，这本小说是我读过的文学史上最强大、最有戏剧效果的作品之一，很神奇，我们都很喜欢它，一刻不停地幻想着它变成影片的样子。这是一个以一种充满感情、能够引起你无限回忆以及美丽的方式描述的故事，拥有它自己在视觉上的翻译画面--当你在阅读的时候，似乎真的看到书中所讲述的那些事情就在眼前发生。”霍伯格补充道：“阅读《追风筝的人》的过程是一个非常精彩的体验，会让你产生一种强大的情感波动，让你沉迷于其中无法自拔，无论你在过去做过什么，你都相信未来会更好。虽然你是以一个读者的身份来看待这个故事，但却真的深陷在故事所蕴含的秘密和伤痕中，因为我们在过去都曾有过相似的经历。你跟随着小说中的个男孩，走进了一种文化、一个家庭，当然也包括埃米尔这个角色对自己的错误所进行的补救。我发现自己得到了一种不可思议的感动，如果将这个故事用影像表现出来，就会拥有更多值得开发的潜能。”
　　威廉·霍伯格和丽贝卡·耶登汉姆又将小说拿给沃尔特·帕克斯(Walter Parkes)和劳里·麦克唐纳(Laurie MacDonald)看，并成功引起了他们的兴趣，于是几个人同时放弃了在梦工厂的主流制片人的身份，进入独立制片的领域。当电影人们联合拿下小说的改编版权后，他们就开始着手剧本的创作了，对于帕克斯来说，小说的中心地带就在于神秘且很脆弱的儿时好友之间的友谊维系：“我与我10岁或11岁交的好友之间，一直存在着那种很私密却也很奇幻的联系，现在也是如此，已经成为我们相处的一种模式了。”麦克唐纳补充说：“整个故事关注的都是孩子在情感上具有的那种弹性，在个人的世界中，一个孩子与另一个孩子之间的联系其实是非常个人化的，那么地真诚，那么地悲伤，可是最终却带给我们希望。对于我来说，这就是小说中最有价值的内容。”
　　另外，四位电影人还争取到卡勒德·胡赛尼本人成为将小说带上大银幕的一个积极的合作伙伴，保证他在所有的创作过程中，都有决定的权力，威廉·霍伯格解释说：“胡赛尼是我们通往那个小说所营造的世界的使者。”
　　就在影片的发展中期，2005年的时候，威廉·霍伯格和丽贝卡·耶登汉姆同时离开了梦工厂，霍伯格加盟到西德尼·凯米尔(Sidney Kimmel)创办的电影公司，那里以尊重有天分的电影人和高质量的电影故事而闻名，基于此，凯米尔也成为了《追风筝的人》热情的支持者，而霍伯格也以制片人的身份有条不紊地筹划着。这时，杰夫·斯克尔(Jeff Skoll)，小说的忠实粉丝之一，也加盟到电影公司，成为另一位投资人。
　　与此同时，小说也以迅雷不及掩耳的速度，成为了文学界的一个风向标，这样的成就就连那些颇具慧眼的电影人们也没料到，沃尔特·帕克斯承认道：“坦白地说，我们中的任何一个人都没有想到，《追风筝的人》竟然能够以这种如此主流的方式吸引人们的注意力。但它确实是一个非常伟大的故事，拥有那种勇敢的戏剧尺度，而其中关于救赎的中心话题以及与真正自我搏斗的过程，都让它变得经典且美妙。所以我们就假设它可能会成为那种一石激起千层浪的王牌小说，然后再同样期待，也许几年后，美国主流电影工业的大环境，也能够如此开放，多制作一些这种拥有多重文化氛围的好故事。”
　　曾经获得过金球奖提名，并执导过《笔下求生》、《寻找梦幻岛》和《死囚之舞》的导演马克·福斯特负责将这部卡勒德·胡赛尼创作的畅销小说带上大银幕，他连同云集了来自于世界各国的演员和工作人员，再加上一些阿富汗和中亚地区本土的临时演员，共同演绎了这个非常大众化的人性故事，专门讲给那些渴望着获得第二次机会的人听，希望以此能够带来一些实质的改变，找到他们梦寐以求的宽恕。
花絮：
·《追风筝的人》小说2003年问世以来，感动亿万读者。名不见经传的作者卡勒德·胡赛尼是一个普通的阿富汗裔美国医生，他因该作品获得2006年联合国人道主义奖。
·影片中许多放风筝的场景中，小演员都是拉着气球在跑，至于风筝，则是后期制作的时候合成上去的。
·饰演哈桑的艾哈迈德·汉·马赫米扎达(Ahmad Khan Mahmidzada)以及他的家人，一直要求有关强奸的那部分场景可以从影片中剪掉。
精彩对白：
Amir: I'm going to find a boy. His father meant a lot to me.
埃米尔：我在寻找一个男孩，他的父亲对于我来说意义重大。
Rahim Kahn: Now there is a way to be good again...
拉希姆·卡恩：现在，这里有一个机会可以重拾自我……
Older Hassan (voice): I dream that my son will grow up to be a good person, a free person. I dream that someday you will return to revisit the land of our childhood. I dream that flowers will bloom in the streets again... and kites will fly in the skies!
长大后的哈桑（画外音）：我梦到了我的儿子会成长为一个好人，一个拥有自由意志的人；我梦到了有一天，你会回到我们童年玩耍的这片土地，故地重游；我梦到了鲜花再次在街道上盛开……天空满是色彩斑斓的风筝！
Amir: For you, a thousand times over.
埃米尔：对你，说一千次对不起都不够。

翠皮高树冠，赤脸底匍行。长路何漫漫，志在那幽径。

人生多难事，只怕有心人。人心最难测，最怕多疑神。

容无所容地，为那下声语。哭无所哭泪，为那不争奴。

浅滩遇清水，命高欲秀木。朱砂陶瓷心，唯斟茶是图。
