      I don't think it's super bad

      I remember there was a news from abroad not long ago. The general content was that the mother questioned her daughter's netizens, why after the daughter sent a suicide message, no one had a little dissuasive and caring emotional dialogue, and contradictory content was ubiquitous?

      There is also a story from my colleagues. A car in the tunnel turned over. It should be the reverse one. Of course, the situation is not critical, but what the poor car owner saw was that people who rushed...

      "Chat Room": Internet spoilers have a lot of hardships, but the movie didn't let us understand

      The real social issues related to the lack of network ethics involved in "Chat Room" are very worthy of discussion, but apart from taking it as the theme of the story, the film does not conduct in-depth reflection and analysis on it.

      Not a thriller horror movie

      There are great ideas in the script, but the director was unable to successfully show these highlights on the big screen. Perhaps this subject matter is really difficult to express in the language of the film, and this itself is the script of a stage play in Ireland. If the director is not Hideo Nakata, I am really not interested in paying attention. The film was shortlisted for the 2010 Cannes Film Festival "A Kind of Attention", I guess it was also for the director's name. In fact, this is...

      Not deep, but the tone of the plot is a bit sharp.

      A pessimistic and negative film. The protagonist who is extremely pessimistic, but who dare not commit suicide, relies on exaggerating the negativity and growth of others, and Cong Yong and the others commit suicide to make themselves feel comforted. Looking at these alone, the protagonist is truly a pervert, so this film can be classified as a psychopath. .
          However, this film presents the idea of ​​a chat room in the network to be quite novel. . However, when I saw the image of Jim...

    The all-youth cast lineup showcases new forces in the British entertainment industry

    In terms of cast, the film’s youth is the most striking feature. It may be unfamiliar at first glance.

Aaron Johnson can be said to be among the top in 2010, although " Kick Ass " (2010) makes people remember the hot little loli more, but as the male number one in the film, his stardom is...

    A Criticism of Network Sociality with Poor Prospects

    Oriental horror style Hideo Nakata + socially critical Enda Walsh + youthful youth cast. This combination looks a bit mixed, but also a bit exciting. In addition, the two main creators have been in their respective fields in history. The success and the swift momentum of a few actors can be said to have become popular before the show. Walsh tried to express a possible distortion and deterioration of human nature in the network society...
