    Character Evaluation

    In the movie "The Time Traveler's Wife", director Robert Schwentke changed the "mistakes" he made in directing his previous work and cleverly grasped the audience's taste. Although logically there is still a bit of mystery, the time and space travels and remains unswerving. Love interacts with each other and produces a very subtle chemical reaction . 
    In the movie "Red", director Robert Schwentke focused on the black comedy style of the Coen brothers . The three-step, five-step and one-packed "ambush" in the movie smoothly turned the film into a crazy show with a rather nonsensical style   . The success of his movie is that while he provides enough materials for young people who like action movies to excite the audience, he also has some elements that can impress older audiences .
