Telling a story well, although it is a simple requirement, not every movie can do it, and in the whole movie, the plot of the story, the fate of the characters, the burst of emotions, arouse the audience's resonance and sympathy, this movie Bringing it all out perfectly and better than expected.
The beautiful shots of Korean movies are also shown to the extreme in this film. Exquisite villas, beautiful gardens, gorgeous cherry trees, moving girls, blood-swelling fragrant, sexy carcasses, the film has made these dizzying beauties into a visual feast after another. Next, taste them one by one.
If the total score is 10 points, I personally think that this movie can at least score 9.5 points or more. The foreshadowing and outbreak of feelings, the advancement and climax of the plot, are all just right. The director is especially a master storyteller, especially good at expressing this kind of unusual storyline, and he is very familiar with it. It only takes ten minutes for the movie to gradually enter that mysterious and terrifying villa. The exquisite and gorgeous pictures, the lewd and deceitful characters, the innocence and cunning of the female protagonist, are bizarre and colorful, like a kaleidoscope, and there is an unimaginable wonder that pops up in front of you anytime, anywhere.
After the reversal, there will be reversals. In the story, there is a hidden story. When you think that you have seen through the tricks of the director and the screenwriter, but you find that you have been tricked again, several small plots echo, such as painting Portraits and necklaces, empty slings hanging from cherry trees, concentrated opium potions, and several Easter eggs carefully set in the story, like a few steps taken by a Go master, but they play an important role in the life and death struggle.
