      just kids

      In China, people under the age of 14 are not criminally responsible for breaking the law, which means that the murder in "Eden Lake" happened in China, and the bear children did not have to die because of it.

      I was going to sleep, but I couldn't help but open "Eden Lake". A post-90s student read the film review and didn't dare to watch it, and recommended it to everyone around.

      Then I want to tell you: Although it is full of blood and huge profits, people who watch it feel...

      "Lake Eden" 2017.09.02

      A drama revisited again. Very good. Before, I was thinking of the heroine to get revenge quickly. Even if I killed all the bear children, it would not be enough to relieve my anger. Now I revisit it and see something different. Is this the so-called growth?
      1. When the male and female protagonists set off at the beginning, similar to the radio news reports, about the education of teenagers, and the parents' views on education, etc., here is the point of the importance of education, the...

      The behavior of the hero and heroine makes people angry

      Of course the hero and heroine are ordinary people, not trained agents. It's unnecessary to be overly demanding of them, but basically normal people don't do it.

      1. If you encounter a situation, you will not leave, and you will have to sleep there for an extra night. I won't talk about it before, but the tires of the car were punctured later, which is already a very dangerous sign. As a man in his 30s, he has no judgment at all. After the tire is replaced, he has to sleep...

      Depressed, dark, fearful, or dull

      Watching this movie was very depressing. Such a loving little couple, so sweet, so happy, finally faced such a cruel life and death, and it hurts my heart. There is a strong sense of substitution when watching this movie. Everyone has times when they face unreasonable provocations from punks. Every action of the male protagonist does not seem to be a big mistake. But still can't escape the fate of being tortured and killed, which makes people wonder what to do? In the face of the wicked, is it...

      There is no pretense of innocence of children in Hollywood-style movies, but there is an extreme display of the increasingly serious juvenile delinquency in the UK, the ending that kills the last ray of hope, and the source of evil; the greatest display of terror is not in ghosts, but in vicious...

      People who can understand it should not be too repulsive, because this is a British horror film. The most terrifying thing is not cows, ghosts and snakes, but people's hearts, even the Garden of Eden is such a...

      Haven't tried the movie halfway through and just say "motherfucker" and fast forward! ! ! How did I insist on watching these sadistic scenes, especially the ones poking at the sharks (I feel deeply distressed for the sharks T_T). The first sin is that in the face of the power in the collective, the individual chooses not to resist but cowardice and submission; the second sin is to raise or not teach, the fault of the parents; the third sin is to condone...

    The movie watching process is like a journey to hell, torturing all the sensory cells of the audience. The audience wailes and despairs, trembling in their hearts, and then goes to bed quietly ( Guangming Internet Review)  .
    The litter of bear kids in "Eden Lake" even showed the problem of lack of parental discipline. The hostess occasionally wanted to have a romantic trip to Eden Lake camping. What he never expected was that he met a...
