    False sense of security

    Delicate, deep, and humorous. There are many metaphors, the main line and the sub-line are fully screened, the film is coherent, the performance is coherent, the ending car and the boy, the theme is pointed out, the director is good, and the script is rich and reasonable. The shortcoming is that...

    Although it is an emotional sequel to Body Heat, I can’t help but compare it with the Ordinary People taken by Redford in the 1980s. The gap is very obvious. Even if the obvious and mediocre ending is removed, the lack of expression of the core conflict cannot be concealed. The narrative coming is weak, and the only bright spot is the successful creation of a derailed female image from the perspective of a middle-aged man, using the family film to free the moral shackles of the character, without and not caring about showing the contradictions of the characters, the bereaved child is like The stones dropped on the calm lake, indulging in the waves of "beauty" and "sorrow" in the hesitation, do not expose the scars, and finally leave the chicken soup to end the matter. The advantage of this is that you will feel the hesitation in the clouds and mist if you don't go deep into it. It’s fun enough, but it’s a mess if you go further; in contrast, Ordinary People’s depression is like the last straw that overwhelms a camel. You can hear the cries of the characters at the moment when the cracks fall apart, and the escalation and intensification of contradictions are very natural. It is release, it is thorough.
