    The storyteller is too eager to let the audience know his point of view, but it has the opposite effect. The story is cliché and pale, like the jujube stone stuck in the throat can't be spit out or swallowed, which is extremely uncomfortable. The final climax is slightly surprising, but short and hasty. The "shadow play" at the end of the film is the best content of the whole film: all black people are like bees in a cage. They seem to be vicious, but their influence is weak. Tips: If you are...

    I was playing with neon lights and shadows again, making storytelling a kind of self-contemplation, and suddenly it was brought to me like a basin of water, and I felt so turbid. Basically, I just borrowed the concept of the original version to make a new story, especially the method of storytelling, which deviates from the traditional narrative. I don’t know how much power Jordan Peele has over the script. When I watched it, I occasionally suspected that he gave a semi-finished product. The...

    60/100, the whole system is very Jordan Peele, using a horror-type framework to carry issues, the main purpose of this work is not only a direct and current racial indictment, but also a brief history of American gentrification (although citing the root of all this). still elitist). But the downside is that the balance of taste and meaning is inferior to that of his own director's work. The second half starts to mess up. Should the ending be too naive? Fortunately, the scheduling of this new...
