片头的主题，人物设定，人物作用，人物表情，人物对话，剧情发展，结尾一秒，切换到春晚式的结尾,完全是好莱坞式的。但总体来说《威士忌》完成度是很高的，希望技术进步，整体水平提升后，能诞生更多的原创作品，无论是题材、设定还是故事。

我喜欢看剧情片电影。《威士忌》这部剧情片给我的感觉有两点。第一，　　In Uruguay, they don't say cheese in front of the camera - they say whisky. Beneath the artificially photographed smiles, however, is a blueprint for the "South American Gothic," minus the farm and the forks. These Montevidean folks' stony expressions belie a life gripped frozen by accustomed routines. So it goes with an old Jewish bachelor who owns an ageing sock factory. When his estranged younger brother decides to visit for their mother's burial, he asks his employee Marta to pose as his wife. The resulting encounter creates clumsy silences that are uncomfortably comic.
