3月4日在北美地區(qū)上映的喜劇新片《超級(jí)奶爸》在短短一個(gè)周末內(nèi)創(chuàng)造了超過三千萬美元的票房奇跡，一躍成為全美最走紅的影片，主演范·迪塞爾的搞笑表演也帶給觀眾不少驚喜。外電報(bào)道如下：Vin Diesel's family-friendly comedy "The Pacifier" pulled in $30.2 million on its opening weekend to rank as the nation's top-grossing movie, turning his action-star image and box-office expectations upside down.
Proving he's more than biceps and tattoos, Diesel's performance as a Navy SEAL turned baby sitter easily outdistanced the weekend's other major opening, "Be Cool" with John Travolta.
"Be Cool," the sequel to the 1995 comedy "Get Shorty," took in $23.5 million for Travolta's largest weekend opening, according to studio estimates.
"'Pacifier' did better than anyone expected, but you can't underestimate the family audience," said Paul Dergarabedian, president of Exhibitor Relations Co., which tracks box-office figures. "I think people like to see a fish-out-of-water story, an action star in a very unexpected role."
Fish out of water是一個(gè)俚語，意為“如魚離水、感到生疏”，喻指某人和他所處的環(huán)境不融恰，使他感到別扭或難堪。例如：At the conference I was a fish out of water. All the speeches were in French, a language I never studied.（參加那個(gè)會(huì)議真叫我感到別扭。所有人發(fā)表講話的時(shí)候都用法語，可是我從來也沒有學(xué)過法文。）號(hào)稱“肌肉美男”的范·迪塞爾是一個(gè)個(gè)性十足的動(dòng)作明星，可在此片中他居然一改往日風(fēng)格，“屈尊”出任超級(jí)奶爸，難免讓觀眾們大跌眼鏡，從“如魚離水”的角度來欣賞他的另類表演。
