Since the Hannibal series, it has been a long, long, long time since I have watched such an exciting and wonderful movie of the same kind. This kind of film has created a kind of "human beings close to gods", which arouses people's longing and imagination about the limits of human intelligence.


"Hannibal" in 2001 came and went without a trace. Even the state violent agency could not imprison him. Everything seemed to be woven under the calculations of his brain. Everyone and things around him follow his brain. The default program operation; in 2007, "Mr. Brooks" showed us that whoever wants to kill is already reached. After the killing, he can get rid of suspicion cleanly and completely. At the same time, he has superb computer hacking skills. Invaded the upgraded version of "Hannibal" of the U.S. Guards database. . . How to make people unexcited? Our Mr. Hannibal is not old, and has returned with a new identity and new technology! !


Before I wrote the film review, I read the comments of some other people. As usual, there are a lot of people criticizing the so-called loopholes in the film that contrast with reality and the "impossibility" in details. I don't want to refute anything in particular, just want to say : Movies, it’s really not the way to watch them. If you have time, it’s better to be an elementary school teacher to correct typos or to correct the children’s logical underdevelopment. Maybe it won’t be more fulfilling than writing a film review, but at least it won’t stand in the wrong place. . I have never heard of "No matter how good things are, are they waste if they are placed in the wrong place?" In the



film, Brooks and the Oscar actor William Hurt, who plays the evil personality "Marshall", have a lot of interesting things. interactive. Different from the Hannibal series of the year, this shooting method of pros and cons presented together makes the characters less confusing and mysterious, but the plot becomes more lively, and the audience does not have to struggle to guess what the protagonist is thinking, just Feel the sharper contradiction in the character's heart presented by this form of expression, and the more intense emotional tension with the trend of the plot. It can be seen that what the director wants to throw to the audience is not a murderous madman who is as unfathomable as a god, but only wants to bluff the audience for a while. What the director and screenwriter want to present is, first of all, a person who has double or multiple personality aspects like many ordinary people, but in Brooks, the contradiction in this personality aspect is extreme.


The concept of addiction is mentioned in the film. Everyone has some addictions and addictions. But in real life, we have seen many high-achieving people whose hobbies are often different from others, and many of them have the psychology of pursuing excitement and adventure. For example, billions of business giants mentioned in the news drove their planes across the Atlantic alone, or some super-rich died in extreme mountaineering. In fact, it is not difficult to understand that for some people who have achieved great achievements in life, only exciting challenges and high-level adventures can continue to satisfy their psychological pursuit of pleasure. However, unfortunately and unfortunately, Mr. Brooks, who has super wisdom like our god, happens to be a "killer addiction".


However, doing evil to the extreme, the sky will die out. While the film coolly portrays a criminal with a high IQ who is close to God, it does not forget to describe the suffering of his inner conscience, and it does not forget to give him some form at the end of the film. Punishment. In this world, there are two types of people who are extremely opposite. One of them draws the spiritual power to support themselves from light and integrity; the other draws their personality components from darkness and murderous hearts. Perhaps, as long as these two kinds of people are equipped with high enough wisdom, they can become powerful people.


But do you know what is the difference between these two kinds of people?

The former’s heart is magnanimous and free, he has a higher sense of trust in the world and people around him, and he lives in a more peaceful and warm state of mind. To be let down by others to a certain extent, should also be expected by them, within their chest capacity). If you have enough wealth and value in your mind and spirit, you will not be on guard everywhere, and always tremble with others. Peeping, you will not live in a cold and trembling dark world; the latter’s heart, because they themselves are believers and practitioners of killing, of course, in their hearts, they will always feel that they have been It is not surprising that other people's killings are naturally natural.



Therefore, Brooks even the most beloved family in his life can walk into his nightmare and become his subconscious fear. His heart is full of killers, and his heart is an isolated island, where there is dead silence and Jedi desolate.
