James Benning’s first film called The United States of America was a 1975 trip across the country, capturing its scenery through a car windshield. This second one also crisscrosses the nation, but without a car, carving it up instead into a series of static shots of just under two minutes, one for each state, presented alphabetically, from Heron Bay, Alabama to Kelly, Wyoming. The names of the places are nondescript, but the images attached to them are anything but, immaculately composed shots of landscape, cityscape and the spaces in between. As we move from A to Z, the images coalesce into a portrait of today’s USA, tracing out its fault lines almost in passing: fenced-off facilities, a river bed running dry, factories and refineries, run-down streets and gas stations, a camp under a bridge. The past is there too, seeping up through the songs and speeches that sporadically pierce the background noise or the motifs that evoke a whole career; the clouds, trains and cabins are stand-ins for films, not just states. As always, there’s time for more abstract thoughts too: each image may stand for a state, but representativity is slippery. Which state is more cinematic than the rest?
整部片子节奏挺快的，看得还挺开心的。那烧烤：烤鸡架、烤腰子、羊肉串、龙虾、烤生蚝啥的哪个不好吃？宵夜永远是最迷人的。
这个阵容，表现出乎意料。
作为中国本土情怀的深夜食堂，烧烤比电影更吸引人。
这电影剧情真实缜密、而且笑点很新颖，不应该评分这么低啊，里面还掺杂着家庭的感情，有意思，推荐
有些桥段挺搞笑的，演员表演没问题，就是剧本太平了，冲突不够
最近看过最好的国产喜剧片了，太有意思了。哈哈哈
不错啊，有诚意的剧本，演技也在线，玩梗的手法没有那么烂俗，至少有几个地方笑得出来，比春晚小品精彩
喜剧小品，大俗的情节设置，利用女性的生殖诱惑，莫名其妙的一见钟情，当作下饭喜剧看看还行
一个网大电影不需要要求这么高吧？让你开心不就行了？还得有点教育意义把你看哭？
本以为是很烂的下饭片，但看完之后却发现比预期好很多
镜头十分朴素…有一些笑点，比如馕哥哈哈，最后都干烧烤了，和老爷子合伙不就得了嘛
簡單輕鬆完整笑點密 居然是導演的首片 加一星
没什么大内容的快乐电影，但是还真的挺欢乐的。
挺好看的。过程精彩。任何事情都要想办法解决。只要想办法，就会有出路。
很轻松的喜剧片，经典的东北小品风，一边吃麻辣香锅一边看的，很下饭
和所谓的大制作相比，至少用心了，爱笑的风格还是没变
6.5/10.
还可以啊，笑点都能响，故事也讲得完整，不错啦，要啥自行车啊
哈哈glee初中版诶find your light哭死我==
这片子还真不难看来，有意思，节奏把握的也好。
