a bit nondescript

Not much to say about the plot, the movie is still relatively strong to watch. Sister Mila's performance is quite brilliant, and the ending is also very beautiful. When the rain washed away the male protagonist's face with the blood, Anna's pain, loneliness and helplessness infected every audience in front of the screen. I can't help but think of the City of Angels: Uncle Cage has gone through untold hardships and finally made up his mind to come to the world and plan to live and die together with his beloved~ As a result, the heroine had a car accident...

Well, this is not the point of the film review, the point is middle plot. Alopecia is a very good material. The material is very novel and creative. The plot is set a little ups and downs. It turned into a good psychological film, but in the end, the suspense was anticlimactic, and the warmth was insufficient:
1. Every time I wake up at the beginning, Anna's boyfriend's sentence "Where have we met?", such an important one The clue turned into the most useless line in the whole play;
2. The clue of the police's feelings for Anna was not used well.
3. Did Anna change her phone number after being stolen by the murderer? No. beat yourself up? If the number was changed, how could Anna's boyfriend not know that it was the text message sent by the murderer?
4. After the murderer was exposed, why didn't he kill the policeman without the gun but go after Anna first? You must know that the biggest threat is the policeman

. 5. The relationship between the policeman and the heroine developed too quickly and too stiffly. Did you want to show that Anna was helpless and eager to grab a life-saving straw?
6. One text message made Anna's boyfriend quickly complete the transition from being angry to proposing, and even bought the ticket ring, too fast.
...
In short, there are too many flaws in the plot, it really feels a bit nondescript.

    Can you be blind and can't even distinguish voices?

  • Era 2022-03-27 09:01:15

    If you can't recognize faces, you should be able to recognize human voices, right? ! Such a big flaw leaves the audience at a loss. The best way is to let Sister Mila put on a leather coat and take a submachine gun to sweep it all over! . . .
