“枯燥至极”
用英语怎么说？

One might imagine that giving a documentary team unfettered access to a well-funded, controversial cryptocurrency exchange over a three-year period would produce an entertaining film. After all, the rise of cryptocurrency is a story ripe for cinema, featuring overnight billionaires, flashy startups, and massive fortunes gained and lost. However, what is most impressive about Coin: A Founder's Story, the Coinbase documentary, is how bone-grindingly dull it is. Over eighty-four monotonous minutes, the viewer follows Coinbase’s CEO Brian Armstrong through the tumultuous adolescence of his company. What we see is far from dramatic. Instead, the film showcases the ordinary, daily grind of entrepreneurship. Most of what we see of our billionaire protagonist is a series of shots as he works alone in his office or travels in private jets, with no wild partying or lavish living.

人们可能会设想，让一个纪录片团队在三年时间里无限制接触一家资金充足、充满争议的加密货币交易所，会拍出一部有趣的电影。毕竟，加密货币的崛起是一个非常适合搬上银幕的故事，其中充满了夜之间暴富的亿万富翁、耀眼的新创企业以及在夜之间暴涨暴跌的巨额财富。然而，这部关于 Coinbase 的纪录片《硬币：创始人的故事》最令人印象深刻的地方，却在于它是多么的枯燥至极。在长达八十四分钟单调乏味的片长中，观众跟随 Coinbase 首席执行官布莱恩·阿姆斯特朗，见证了这家公司动荡成长期。我们所看到的毫无戏剧性。相反，这部电影展示了创业过程中平凡、琐碎的日常。我们看到这位亿万富翁主角的大多数画面，都是他独自在办公室工作，或者乘坐私人飞机出行，没有任何疯狂的派对或奢华的生活。
