From this film, I see too many shadows of other films, and the plot is old. Although the contradictions are concentrated, the final decryption is too stretched and obviously not strong enough, which makes it difficult for the audience to produce emotional * * *. The values conveyed in its plot are not what I agree with.
The director obviously doesn't set suspense and rhythm. As a suspense film, this is unqualified.
At the beginning of the film, the director threw out the mystery that the heroine killed people by injecting tetrodotoxin into yogurt. As a viewer, I thought there would be a shocking reversal at the end, but the result was obviously unsatisfactory. The method of killing people is just a simple injection of toxins, which obviously does not conform to the story that a suspense film should have. Moreover, in the case that the first female main line has not been explained clearly, adding another line seems a bit redundant.
Secondly, the male principal committed the heinous crime of murder, but the police did not find it. In the end, the prosecutor only guessed the truth through a phone record and a lighter. The prosecutor forced reasoning without any substantial evidence, and then scribbled it out. The decryption of this ending is really confusing.
I don't quite understand the focus of the whole story. Many elements are in it, but I don't know what the focus is. There are girls who have been violated and fall in love with rapists; The infatuated man is psychologically distorted, watching the girl he likes being raped; Innocent men kill for married childhood friends; Female lawyers shield murderers regardless of principle. Looking at these plot points alone, you will feel that the story is rich and the contradictions are concentrated. But the whole film has no focus at all. The story is old and its plot can't stand scrutiny.
The woman reunited with the man who raped her, but she killed him again. I thought there would be something hidden, and the end result was just love killing. What is the rape set in front? Furthermore, a man who likes the hostess sent the hostess and the man to the hotel, obviously knowing what the man mainly did to the hostess, knowing that it was a crime, and the man asked him to leave, and he left? It is also a strange point that the man killed people without being discovered. The plot can't stand scrutiny at all.
Looking back at the narrative of the whole movie, it is said that the man likes the female lawyer who was a childhood friend and killed the husband of the female lawyer after learning that the female lawyer was subjected to domestic violence. However, after the body was found, she was afraid of exposure, so she drank too much wine and raped the hostess under the influence of alcohol. A few years later, after the reunion with the man, the woman fell in love. Finally, the woman suspected that the man loved someone else, so she killed him.
The director messed up the whole narrative and could see his intention. But under the whole movie, the structure is chaotic, and the plot is very old: the raped woman falls in love with the rapist, and the China version of "Walking at Night"? Can you treat the hostess as your other beloved woman by drinking? I feel that I have seen it in many movies, which is a bit untenable.
It is still controversial that the victim married someone who raped her.
The cognitive deviation makes me unable to empathize. Outside the film, some netizens said it was a typical Stockholm syndrome. Psychologically dependent on the hijackers, they believe that their life and death are in the hands of the hijackers. It is believed that if the hijackers let them live, they should be grateful to the hijackers, and regard the rescuers as enemies, which is a manifestation of the role identification defense mechanism.
But shouldn't the man's rape and murder be criticized? However, the murder of the man shown in the film is only a love murder. Its other behaviors are obviously weakened by the film. Of course, watching movies is very personal. As a moviegoer, everyone can hold different opinions.
