在这部同名的人剧情/喜剧片中,姑且可称之为拿坡里的「两生草」：两个东尼，一个是歌星，一个是球星，一个走红时，另一个也在重要赛事一脚定江山，然意气风发之际，上帝之手却暗中安排逆转；终于当二人在潦倒日子相遇，无言相对，顿明白两个只能掂一个之天意弄人。一眼看尽的后《两生花》主线，初试啼声自编自导的苏伦天奴在没有细究星座八字的情况下，依章回却不依章法的拼砌，写出人生困惑与释放之间，敢问谁主浮沉的惘然。最终大抵认为生命是个游戏，看你用怎样的心情迎对而已。
The debut feature by acclaimed Italian director Paolo Sorrentino (La Grande Bellezza) is a stylish and blackly comic look at the dark side of fame. Evocatively set during the eighties, the film charts the decline of two men both named Antonio Pisapia who lead entirely separate yet strangely parallel lives. One (Toni Servillo, Gomorrah) is a pop singer who finds himself washed up after a sex scandal ends his run of success; the other (Andrea Renzi) a football hero whose playing career is abruptly cut short by injury. Sharply observed and featuring excellent performances from the two leads, Sorrentino's compelling film explores the personal consequences wrought by cruel reversals of fortune.
