Everyone is familiar with "human flesh search". In some incidents that cause social outrage, human flesh searches for those "morally corrupt" are extremely common. Perhaps for most people, conducting human flesh searches seems to be quite technical. work, and the "Searching" to be introduced today clearly tells us that as long as there is a certain social network information and a little basic logical reasoning ability, it can be said that human flesh search is effortless, which is probably also It was the horror of the human flesh search itself.
The biggest feature of this film is the novelty in form, that is, the whole film is completed on the computer screen, and all the information obtained by the audience comes from the computer screen. Some people may say that the "Unfriend" series is the forerunner of this form of expression. But the "Unfriending" series is more about the way of video chat, and in this film, the computer becomes the faithful recorder of the life of the family of three, and it also includes more forms of expression, such as Facebook, live broadcast platform, YouTube, Google, Reddit, which covers almost all mainstream Internet access methods.
This is a family of three, the male owner David, the female owner Pam, and the daughter Margot. In the first six minutes of the film, the basic situation of the family was introduced through the computer. The daughter Margot likes the piano and often practices the piano with her mother.
There are also some small scenes that make people smile, such as playing a small game and encountering a virus,
A search engine for "what is intercourse" also misspelled the word "intercourse", not "entercourse".
The mother, Pam, unfortunately died of cancer and eventually passed away, and the daughter, Margot, entered high school.
One day, Margot did not go home after participating in the study group, and called David three times in the middle of the night, but David, who was sleeping, did not receive it. The next day, David could no longer contact Margot, and his daughter was so bizarre. disappeared.
David called the police. When the police collected the information, he realized that he didn't know any of his daughter's friends at all. He had no choice but to retrieve the password through a set of mailboxes, and then he was able to log in to his daughter's Facebook account.
After contacting his daughter's Facebook friends, he discovered an astonishing fact that her daughter is not as lively and cheerful as she usually looks. She is quite withdrawn at school and has few close friends. Almost no one knows her whereabouts. David also finds out that his daughter seems to be having a secret with his brother Peter.
David wandered through his daughter's various accounts, Facebook, live broadcast platforms, mailboxes, etc., searching for any clues that could find her daughter, so what is the truth of Margot's disappearance, and whether David can successfully find her daughter? You can find the answer in the film yourself.

This film is not difficult to understand, and it also has many reversals, but what I think is a very good thing is that in the early stage, when the story progressed, many foreshadowings were laid, which provided a strong foundation for the subsequent reversals. The support of , also makes the whole story logically very smooth, let's talk about the small foreshadowing that may be ignored by everyone.
Daughter Margot has a good relationship with her mother, and her mother's death is undoubtedly a huge blow to her, except for the repeated changes and final deletion of the mother's discharge home date in the first half that everyone must have noticed, and this picture, in addition to that "Talent Show" and other schedules are "piano with mom", which shows how good Margot's relationship with his mother is.
We all know that after the search began, the heavy rain that interrupted the search saved Margot from lack of water, and there was such a picture when the male protagonist browsed the news in the early stage. The news in the picture on the left is, A 56-year-old hiker was successfully rescued after being trapped between the cliffs for nine days, which also paved the way for Margot's successful rescue later. Maybe David was inspired by this news and strengthened his daughter's confidence in being alive.
There are also some foreshadowings about the murderer. The first is that when David was looking through his daughter's address book on the computer, he once turned to the information of the policewoman's son, who is the real murderer of the case. Bureau work, had a crush on Margot.
When David searched for policewoman Vick's information, her Facebook page wrote a sentence "Amother's love for her child is like nothing else in the world." A mother's love for her child is unmatched by anything else in the world. It also laid the groundwork for her to help the child cover up the crime.
And Vick told David that when her son defrauded the neighbor's money in her name, she finally chose to help the child to settle the lie together, which also shows how she would respond to her son's mistakes.
There is also a very obvious foreshadowing that David found out that his daughter was going to Lake Barboza. He said that Margot was going to the place she had been to for the past five months, and he did not mention whether it was the lake or somewhere, and Vick When I called back, I asked directly are you by the lake? And at this time Vick was not calm and acted very flustered. At the time, it seemed that she was very interested in the case, but in fact she was afraid that something would go wrong and someone would find clues.
After the death of his mother Pam, the family no longer had the usual laughter and laughter. Although David and Margot kept in touch, their conversations were obviously alien, and the distance from each other was getting farther and farther. David also misses his wife. He will listen to soothing music for a long time after get off work to calm down his sadness. He can't help but open a video with his wife, and he is sad. In the live broadcast, Margot talked about his mother Pam's birthday. David At this time, he walked in. He hesitated for a while but invited Margot to watch the good voice. In fact, he also knew what day it was, but what he wanted was to use time to heal the pain, so he refused to talk about his wife Pam to Margot, thinking that This is the best way to heal Margot, but because of this, he goes further and further away from Margot.
I have to say that David really doesn’t know his daughter, and from the level of detail in the address book made by his wife Pam, it can be seen that he and his wife care about her daughter too far, and the lack of language and lack of communication between the two makes it worse. It makes the relationship between father and daughter worse and worse. Fortunately, after this series of events, Margot's desktop changed from a photo with his mother to a photo with his father, which means that the relationship between the two has been on the right track since then.
In the parent-child relationship, only when parents and children communicate frankly on the basis of mutual trust and mutual respect can they establish a harmonious and healthy intergenerational relationship.
Less hesitating, less taking things for granted, may be the first step for us to deal with an intimate relationship.
