At the end of the movie, it is designed to make Brooks fall into the fear of her daughter's father-killing in his dream, which is intended to indicate the devouring nature of evil, like a dark parasite, which will eventually eat back the host. The rhythm and performance of the film can almost be complimented with "elegance". Crime movies have an elegant taste, which shows the aesthetic significance of movie language to narrative. Although Kevin Costner rarely had works with good box office and good reputation after "Bodyguard", with his skill, this kind of commercial film was easily captured. This extremely contrasting criminal must have a unified appearance. Costner solved this with a unified action style, and the movie can feel the perfection of the film.
"Mr. Brooks" tells the audience: In an age full of prying eyes, the Internet has strengthened humans' desire for prying. One of the characteristics of snooping is to dehumanize the objects of snooping and forget each other's existence. Only through this forgetting can the snooper get the pleasure of snooping. If the snooper is aware of the human nature of others, he loses the impulse to snoop.
The film does not have very exciting suspense, and lacks the reasoning of pulling the cocoon. The visual effects and plot are also slightly flat. It seems that the film should focus on showing the complex and contradictory psychology of the characters in a subtle way to arouse the audience's emotions. think. However, for an image of Mr. Brooks with a split personality, everyone may feel familiar: whether Edward Norton in "First Fear", Johnny Depp in "Mystery Window", or Dakota in "Hide and Seek" · Fanning, all in the process of playing schizophrenia easily kill.
Therefore, director Bruce Ivans does not intend to "uncover the sheepskin of the schizophrenic wolf" as the final shocking mystery like the above works. But the film’s old-fashioned story, Zhongzheng’s performance, and mediocre suspense can only produce pale pastimes and entertainment. Except for the acting skills of several leading actors, the director's skills, plot structure and other aspects are not outstanding.
