After reading the reviews, a lot of people think this is a bad movie, it's hard to understand if it doesn't look good, and they don't know what they're talking about. I want to say that most of the people who make this evaluation have a relatively mediocre appreciation of art. Of course, those who are accustomed to watching the "Justice Wins" movie will really question this film, but please think about it, how can there be so many Justice Wins? How can there be so much heroism? How many sins in real life go unpunished at all? All kinds of violent acts are always just the skin of the film. The director can say that he gave the word "mainstream" a big slap in this film, and at the same time gave the audience who were expecting "mainstream" a big slap! Especially the plot of the remote control in the middle, maybe everyone thinks this is the normal development trend of a normal movie plot, alas, I prefer not to let him develop like this, and the person who believes this joke is really taken by the director.
My liking for this movie may be related to my interest bias. Personally, I advocate alternative culture, extreme music and black themes. I think the director is using the mainstream framework to tell alternative stories! Just like the long shot at the beginning of the film, the family of three happily enjoyed the journey to the villa for vacation, and the couple enjoyed the wonderful opera. For a time, I thought I had watched the wrong movie? ! Because no matter how you look at it, it looks like a drama movie, and then the extremely violent and cruel grinding metal music suddenly sounded without any excesses, so I felt the death atmosphere of this movie, and the picture did not change with the music, it was still the same Warm sunshine and a warm family, it's like watching a ballet while listening to death metal. The great contrast must make the audience feel uncomfortable, as if you have a premonition that danger is coming but you don't know what it is. What, I think this is also what the director wants to show. Violence is full of life around, and warm sunshine and family love cannot prevent violence from approaching you step by step.
It is said that this is a horror thriller movie, but the director did not create the so-called horror with blood plasma and screams and a thrilling soundtrack, but only through performances. I have to admire the delicate performance of the actors in the film, whether they are perverted killers or victims. Two gentle and elegant young people, I am afraid that whoever sees them will smile at them involuntarily, because they are so polite and careful smiling at you, the word perverted killer is a thousand miles away from them, but it is These two young people will lead you into the abyss of terror. They smile in everything they do. They can smile and create pain that ordinary people (audience) cannot bear. They're enjoying the process, and what's even more disturbing is that they're just enjoying it! In fact, I kind of "like" these two young people. No matter whether they are perverted or murdered, they are so graceful. They have no fear, no mercy, no scruples. No one knows what they are thinking. They are crazy and arrogant, and they are paranoid. To vent their feelings, they have no ethical and common sense restrictions in their minds. This has nothing to do with the actor's shaping. Their expressions and small movements are so in place, which makes me believe that such two perverts really exist. Maybe they are still continuing their activities at the moment. And they are still so young, I am afraid the director also wants to tell the audience that the emotions of the younger generation affected by violence have begun to develop deformed!
The director also spent a lot of energy describing the victim's family of three. Many viewers thought they were too useless. It is true that they were useless and died, but they are helpless and this is the reality. The director shows you the helplessness of an ordinary family of three in the face of violence, remember that it is "ordinary", not a family with a senior agent status in a true lie, nor is it secretly like Spider-Man. A family of exceptional talents. You don't really think that when people are bullied, they will burst out with a powerful microcosm and courage to repel the bad guys? Heroes don't run everywhere. Maybe you won't cry after going through the same experience.
At one point I was afraid that the plot would develop as normal people think, that a member of the Three Family would come to the rescue or take advantage of it to subdue the bad guys, and the young man was shot to death. I was extremely depressed. I know this is just a joke, the director didn't hit me with this slap, but I'm afraid many people have been slapped with this slap!
I hope that friends who have been slapped will re-examine this classic film whose performances, colors, and frames are mainstream but tell an alternative with another mentality.
