    Character Evaluation

    Craig Gillespie has superb shooting skills. In the movie "I, Tonya", Craig Gillespie detailed the violent relationship between Jeff Gillespie and Harding. Moreover, the movies he directed are very interesting. In Gillespie's movie, all the characters could have been filmed by the Coen brothers , but the final shots of the movie let the audience see that these characters are real. Although director Gillespey’s tune was very correct, he stopped in the middle without touching the final result . 
    The subversive creativity of Craig Gillespie's early works-such as the unacceptable movie "Inflatable Doll Love", and even the bolder alternatives "Mr Woodcock" and "Fright Night"-in the movie "The Rescue of the Sea" Zhongdu no longer exists, and it is replaced by a form of observance and meticulous craftsmanship, not to say how bad this is, but it does seriously lack a unique personality. Moreover, director Craig Gillespie failed to manage the entire story structure effectively. All the elements were not coordinated and integrated into a whole, but simply pieced together. The movie content can only be perceived by people at best, and lacks the immersive feeling. "Hollywood Reporter" ).
