It's not easy to capitalize

My review was deleted once, so I'll have to rewrite it. This movie does a great job of showing us what it's like to be a deaf person. This is another movie with sound as the main line of perception after "A Quiet Place". Interesting shot.

At first a lot of mute and volume down was used to make the audience experience the pain of deafness. As an artist, imagine yourself being blind. That just makes people unable to live. What about the person who took the music exam for dinner? He lost his function and went to work. Even the sense of achievement and self-worth as a person is gone. The most shocking thing is actually the effect after his surgery. The audience thought it was either good or bad. But the result was a murmur. It's so painful. Sometimes it's better not to. Can't go back to music, can't enjoy silence. This operation, which sold all of my net worth, felt like I was being tricked.

This film is an immersive experience of the world of the hearing-impaired. Full of experience.

    Using sound effects to drive the plot, the third act takes the whole show to the next level. Personally, I like it quite a bit. The reconciliation with myself is very natural. Although the process is difficult, it is really not something that needs to be explained to others. 3.5

    The design of the sound part is very interesting, and the simulation of the sound world of the hearing impaired has a strong sense of substitution. Especially as a hearing impaired person, I can understand the despair of the male lead. There was a bit of routine in the middle, but fortunately, I pulled back some at the end.
