"The Eye", nothing new

Knowing Li Xinjie may be through the film "Damn", and her performance in this film is amazing. This time, the American remake of "Damn" is not expected at all. Completely disappointed after watching it. To put it nicely, it is very loyal to the Hong Kong version; to say it badly, it is nothing new.

Except for replacing all the actors in the Hong Kong version of "Hell" with foreigners, the rest of the film seems to be copied and copied. The Hong Kong version of the script was taken over and filmed again. It was a waste of manpower and material resources. It really cannot be compared with the Hong Kong version, let alone surpass .

The American version of "Haunted" can be said to be not scary at all, perhaps focusing on the plot of the story, without creating a thrilling atmosphere at all, and the portrayal of the characters is not as exciting as the Hong Kong version. The US version retains all the plots of the Hong Kong version, including the elderly in the elevator, the children with transcripts, and the roast meat shop. Maybe Americans couldn't understand the meaning of ghosts licking roast meat, so this paragraph was deleted. You know, at that time I saw this part of the Hong Kong version, but it was creepy.

I really don't recommend everyone to watch this movie. If you haven't seen it, you should watch the Hong Kong version.

The Eye quotes

  • Dr. Paul Faulkner: You already filter information from sound, smell, and touch. But now you're gonna be assaulted by a million things you never even knew existed. It's a whole new level of confusion. Do I look here or here? Is that bright thing important? Or this dark one moving toward me, away from me? Dangerous or not? As long as your eyes are open, there are just too many distractions. I mean, how do you concentrate? I'm talking to you and you're looking at that woman, and you're thinking, "Is she gonna eat that?" That's a pineapple by the way. You cut it open...

    Sydney Wells: I like pineapple.

    Dr. Paul Faulkner: [chuckles] Sorry. Anyway, because you can see, people are going to expect you to be able to do things that you can't do. Read signs, recognize body language, people's gestures, facial expressions, or just get out of their way. Your eyes will want to dominate how you perceive the world, but you can't fully trust them. Not yet.

  • Dr. Paul Faulkner: We see what we look at. But the way we see things is affected by what we know.
