      values

      Where is the charm of Nicolas Cage? The color of the eyes looks quite white, and the expression of bitterness and hatred cannot deeply explain the pain of the male protagonist, and he has no feelings for this man.
      However, the values ​​of this film are consistent with me. It is impossible for rich people to buy pornographic and violent films. Animals are brutal and savage out of instinct, and there is no "more", their behavior is common among the same kind; and how many human beings, after...

      behind the truth

      Please forgive me that this film cannot give full marks, although it has the blessing of Nicholas the Great. It may also be because the film of 1992 is judged from the perspective of 27 years later, and the plot is not so fascinating. But it still gave me a chill, the ugly truth was unbearable.

      The film starts with 8mm film, and the plot is quite satisfactory. The old lady of the rich orphan found the 8mm tape left by her husband at home. She did not want the police to intervene, so...

      Devil's Deal

      I have to admit that I regret having made this film a little bit, and I feel extremely uncomfortable in my stomach after watching it. Although I also admit that in some dark corners of this world, some evil and dark nature is driven by the devil to carry out dirty, depraved and bloody transactions.
      The theme of the film is very simple, with only one main line: private detective Cage, entrusted by the widow of a former congressman, investigates whether the girl in a videotape of torture and...

      There are many heroes in Liangshan who are deeply moved by the United States

      I watched this famous 8mm a while ago, and there were not too many surprises. It was not satisfactory.

      To answer the question, there are many ways to express justice. It is the most enjoyable to implement it with the 108 heroes, whether it is physical or psychological. In reality, in the face of the strength of the evil forces, we all want to kill and then quickly. Of course, morally, this method has always been recognized, but the birth of the law makes this kind of behavior. Only in...

      His life was completely changed by a videotape

      You should have seen all of Nicolas Cage's films. I like the theme of this "8MM" very much. The murder video does have its market and enthusiasts, so there are many people doing business on it. Of course, most of the video recordings on the Internet are mainly fake (there are definitely some real ones).

      You have seen a murder video, do you pay attention to whether the "actor" in the film is dead or alive?

         In the film, Tom, played by Cage, is an ordinary private detective...

      In the process, the truth was not satisfactory. Among them, I had countless calls with my wife, thinking that there was a foreshadowing, but the result was not. Joaquin Phoenix's supporting role was brilliant, and Cage's grievance really didn't want to see it...
