    If you have the mentality of watching traditional suspense films, you will be disappointed. The whole film presents the textual expression of a novel, and the context is well...

    The heroine is so stunningly beautiful! Polanski's film is really, what should I say, very similar to Rosemary's baby. I don't understand the...

    The whole film is 140 minutes, and when I watched the first 135 minutes, I still thought: Wow, good film! To the last 5 minutes: rub! Why is it gone! ? The whole story ends without understanding, who killed those people, what secrets did the book hold, what happened to the old twins, the origin of the green-eyed girl and pig's feet... all of them are...

    To be honest, there are too many metaphors like black magic in the film that you can't understand. . . So it doesn't look good. . . Unexpectedly, the director turned out to be Polanski. ....

    Friends who like storytelling with special effects will definitely be disappointed. More than 130 minutes of suspense to the end will not give you the most thirst-quenching and intuitive feeling. In fact, sometimes I am quite afraid of this open ending for you to guess. Religious horror movies should be more It's interesting, demons are everywhere, in fact, the answer seems to be clear at the beginning. JD looks more and more like Xiubo brother in this film. In short, this film is worth...

    The photography, performance and rhythm are all remarkable, but the story line/background is not explained enough, and it is suspected that there is a problem with the final editing; in addition, the fighting scenes were filmed very cowardly. The suspense effect is well created, but the final reveal is still not strong...

    No cultural background. It feels kind of interesting. But it looks weird. . . =...

    The death method of the nine pictures has their own attribution in the movie. The director also worked hard on all kinds of hints, but the movie is a bit too procrastinated. Given that I don't understand theology at all, I am confused about what Lucifer is. The biggest question is why is Depp the real one? What qualities does he have to be favored by the devil? Just because he looks...

    As far as the story goes, originally wanted to give 2 stars because too many coincidences amount to nonsense to me. After reading the review, I realized that I didn't understand it. I really need to read some books on Western theology! ps. Although there are so many people who think Johnny's charm is irresistible, I have watched a lot of his movies, but I still don't like him. Is it because I haven't seen...

    Hitchcock-style narrative technique and detailed psychological descriptions, I guessed Lucifer who was a beauty when she flew down from the stairs and was deep down. The ending is not...

    This is a book that can be understood by those with big brains and those with secondary diseases.


    This is a book

    that can be understood by people with big brains and middle-aged patients. Today, let's take a look at the book "The Alexandre Dumas Club". The author of this book is a Spaniard, and he also wrote a relatively well-known book "The Legend of the Mercenaries" - that is the big costume...

    Hell, heaven, all on earth

    It's a Johnny Depp movie.

    Like Edward Scissorhands, you could say it's Tim Burton's personal style masterpiece, but you could also say it's a Johnny Depp movie. Many people don't even remember the plot of the film after watching it, but when they talk about Edward Scissorhands, they will think of...

  • [first lines]

    Dean Corso: It's an impressive collection. You have some very rare editions here. Are you sure you want to sell them all?

    Old Man's Son: They're of no use to father. Not anymore. Not since he's been this way. His library was his whole world. Now it's just a painful memory.

  • Boris Balkan: You must see her again.

    Dean Corso: Are you kidding? Have you seen her secretary?

    Boris Balkan: Try the lunch break.
