I always try to understand a person from a more comprehensive perspective, because I believe that everyone does not have absolute evil and goodness, just like this world, everything has its cause and effect... It’s just that we still I don’t know the other person, so I didn’t see his kindness...

Actually I went to watch the suspense film, but in the end I saw it more sad, even if it was shrouded in a gloomy and gray weird atmosphere But I think this film is still telling the humanity under the war. The warm and indifferent humanity is only revealed in the atmosphere of the war... In fact, at first I thought that the so-called lonely prince didn’t really want it. The kid who killed that kid was just a flop. His purpose was to get gold bars and live his happy life. What I saw was his pathos. In fact, I didn’t go to the doctor and the principal with a calm vision from the beginning to the end. There was that young woman, until I finally looked at her and said that I was not afraid of you, and that she was unwilling to compromise, I suddenly felt that she was so brave and strong, maybe it was really a big reversal of watching suspense movies. , I have never trusted anyone from the beginning to the end, so I didn’t sincerely believe that they are kind people to the doctors and principals. I also suspected Jaime that he killed Santi. Of course, it’s not because I didn’t. Jaime makes me feel a lot more comfortable, at least seeing that the child is kind, makes me feel hopeful, hehe is such a film... The so-called ghost is just a poor soul that is not resting. The most terrifying thing is People...People’s greed killed themselves...But the most terrible thing is to indulge in that greed...Can’t wake up...Death is a better result for him... It’s much better for him than when he wakes up one day but is in extreme pain...

This film shows me only sadness, the deep sadness that hides in the atmosphere of war... The sadness of that man... Finally The photos scattered in the water...and the sadness of the innocent santi who died...and the female teacher who put out the fire...her hard work and selflessness...a little person who has only appeared a few times...on the contrary It makes me even more touched... because if kindness doesn’t need a reason, it’s really valuable if you don’t need to think...I think no matter what... a person who has feelings and can cry... Maybe you can become kind...

What is the devil, is the doomed tragedy repeated again and again? Maybe it’s just a momentary pain. Some things die but still want to be alive. The passion stops abruptly, like a vague photo, like an insect trapped in amber...

    In the early works written and directed by Guillermo del Toro, the screenwriting talent is not outstanding, but the director's style is already very obvious. The low-light pictures, the thrilling and thrilling designs that are intended to pierce the heart, explore human beings in a terrifying shape. , these are his signature moves. There is always a world of people and demons intertwined in his brain, and sometimes it is even difficult to distinguish what is true and what is false, which is the biggest characteristic of del Toro.

    First off the name gimmick. Secondly, many details of the movie are worth scrutinizing, such as ghosts, the doctor's comparison of specimen science and rumors in the title, the bomb that fell from the sky but did not explode on the night of Sandi's death, and culprit finally brought gold to the connection with Sandi's death. At the beginning of the film, there are compromises everywhere to the bloody outbreak and finally I am not afraid, mapping history, although the final victory is not exciting, it is just a relief of hatred. 20130817
