In "I'm a Murderer", the director's lens processing is quite clean, especially in the alley chase scene at the beginning, the constantly shaking lens and the flexible changing shooting angle are thrilling. Here is one point. The police officer who first drank in the tavern was the police officer in 2007. The two people who crashed into the shop from his perspective after a while were him and the murderer more than ten years ago. I started to recall the situation at the time. This treatment was very good; similarly, the murderer finally showed up on the TV station. There was a break in between. Two people were in the bathroom, and the murderer stimulated the police officer to wash his hands in the toilet cubicle, saying You don't really think Jessica is still alive. The real police officer and the image in the mirror are divided into two. One stands in front of the mirror heartbroken and recalls his girlfriend who was killed because of him. The other quickly turned around and wanted to rush into the cubicle and was blocked by the bodyguard. The scene and memories transitioned to a crime scene 17 years ago. When I saw this shot, I couldn't help but sigh that the director is very talented!
The pungent irony and humor peculiar to Korean movies are also fully reflected in this movie. In the interview, the female lawyer not only had no sympathy for the ten women who died innocently, but also left emotional tears when talking about the murderer’s confession. The unrelated people looked at the theater and called the hotline to praise the murderer’s handsome look and thank him for letting him. The book sells well; if the high school student fan group boosts morale, believe me, only that one was killed by J, and the rest were killed by me. It makes people angry and funny. However, the most impressive part of the whole movie was in the second national interview. Because J was late, he arranged for the old man who lost his daughter to speak. He said, I haven’t forgotten my daughter from my heart until now...J hurried in from the back door at this time, the whole studio focused on this person, and the director said that all the cameras will be moved to At the back door, the host interrupted his speech and said that J was now in the studio. The old man sat down and looked at the murderer with complicated eyes. Everyone pays attention to who killed someone. The TV station pays attention to the ratings. The fan group pays attention to whether it affects the reputation of their idols. It has nothing to do with the crowd watching the excitement. No one cares about the loss of their daughters, mothers and wives. I had to show the scars to others because of the hype. The whole story seems to be a huge joke.
Some people say that the action scenes are too long, but I find it very enjoyable. Whether it is the road chasing at the beginning or the hunt for the murderer at the end of the film, it is very exciting. If you can see it in the cinema, it would be even better.
Emotional drama is a plus point in this drama. In Korean movies and TV dramas, dealing with this kind of emotional drama is already very familiar. You don’t need to come and go to you and me. It is true to show some very life-like fragments, for some small ones. The handling of details is critical. For example, in this movie, the girlfriend finally failed to give out the watch with the lover's name engraved on the back. The last impression left by his girlfriend is the back of the lonely departure in the snow ode, and a word of your selfishness. Let the police officer live with remorse and self-blame for 17 years.
The translation of the version I watched had a bug at the end of the film. The back of the watch clearly stated that it was December 24, 1990, and the subtitles were directly on December 24, 1992. In fact, I didn't clarify the timeline too much at first, but later I went back and looked at it again. The murderer started to kill in 1990. The first victim was the mother of the face-changing boxer. She was kidnapped after her girlfriend and the police officer separated on the night of December 24, 1990, and was never found. From 1990 to 1992 During this period, the murderer killed a total of ten more people. The police officer sent the videotape of his girlfriend through the murderer and found that the last person who died was his girlfriend. The murderer chose to bury her alive after being locked up for two years. The time recorded on the videotape was December 19, 1992. Everyone always thought that the last person to die was the one who found the body last among the ten people, so they said that the time for prosecution had passed, but the wicked could not escape punishment in the end because they had fallen into the trap set by themselves. I think that in fact, the time of his girlfriend's death may be later than on the 19th, and the time for prosecution should be extended, but it doesn't make much sense, because the final goal of the police officer is to get the murderer to die, not to send him to court.
In short, this film is a very successful work in terms of story layout and shooting techniques, and it is worth learning and learning from. The extreme role of a Korean evolutionary fool is really outstanding. The chief director of the TV station that appeared in this movie was too impressed by the role of the perverted principal in the melting pot, which led him to appear on the scene as soon as he saw him here. It feels extremely uncomfortable that the whole body alarm has sounded. Another point is that the performance of every supporting role in Korean film and television works is really in place, regardless of whether there is a line or not, this reflects a professional attitude. Many times I watched a domestic movie, but the supporting roles are not clear, and the expression on the camera is unnatural, which is especially easy for people to play. It can only be said that there is still a lot of room for improvement in our movies.
