      Immersive, worth seeing

      I watched it by accident a few years ago, and it was really exciting at the time. Let’s talk about the advantages

      1. Create a progressive atmosphere

      The movie opens with a scene of several young men and women having fun, with relaxing background music, um, is this a horror movie? Is it wrong to type 0.0 in the title.

      Introduce the characters, what to do, the very common mode of several young people + a tour guide to explore the mysterious area. The tour guide is a special...

      Thriller or entertainment?

      To be honest, during the whole viewing process, my heartbeat was steady and there was no sense of horror, because I knew that these six fools would die in the end, and the plot of the film was designed too ordinary, so it should be regarded as an entertainment film. The more I look at it, the more unreasonable I feel. For example, it is unreasonable to decide to go sightseeing in a nuclear power plant, because there is military control there, and just relying on a wild guide is just...

      I like the director's shooting of the night in the film

      It's a bit of a documentary style, no plasma, basically no aliens, and some are dazed. There is no atmospheric music in the tense place, and there is almost no soundtrack throughout. I like how the director feels about the night the most, I like it better. It almost makes horror movies look beautiful, very real, and very suitable for my taste. I have an inexplicable intimacy with many scenes in the film. The plot is too simple, it would be better if there is a little more story and...

      Looking back at the Chernobyl diary, I can't help but write some feelings

      I watched this movie once before, and I watched it as a normal horror movie. At that time, I felt that I passed the test in a horror movie. Several scenes were actually quite scary. Looking back now, I have a better understanding of the crisis in Fukushima, Japan. In the case of thinking, so I will take a more serious attitude towards this film. There are a few places that are impressive, so I will write and express it.

      The first is that a group of boys and girls from developed...

      Spoiler BLX Do Not Enter


             Damn, these people are a bunch of idiots. If the car breaks down, it will break down. Can we all go out the same way tomorrow? If you hear a strange noise, shouldn't you turn off the lights and stay in the car quietly? There must be a few people who love you I went out with my heroism and went out to find out. One was dragged away and the other was bitten. Hehehe, I don’t even have
             
             anyone to lead the way. I won’t say anything because I’m scared to cry (this...

    Domestic evaluation

    "Chernobyl Diaries" has a mix of documentary and feature film styles. This way of telling the story is easily reminiscent of the "Paranormal Activity" that has taken several sequels   . Judging from the trailer, historical images + shaking portable photography undoubtedly created a real horror atmosphere for the film   . But this pseudo-documentary style film with a horrible nuclear accident as a gimmick is difficult to get good...

    Foreign evaluation

    The film is still very effective in the framing of real tourist attractions in Eastern Europe   . ("Hollywood Reporter" review)
    The degree of horror of the film is completely incomparable with the "Paranormal Activity" series, but it is better than other low-cost horror films   . (Comment by "Entertainment Weekly")
    The only suspense in the film became very clear shortly after the film went on, causing the rest of the film to make...
