      subversion! Watch this film carefully

      I originally saw Leiyuye, and I really thought that this film is about two fathers, both for their cubs, a series of terrifying cat and mouse duel. After reading it, it was completely subverted! At the beginning, in a small town, ordinary civilians who shivered for several days due to the manslaughter of a burglary, just because of the plot needs, and a general acquaintance who only met a few times, turned into a murderer who didn’t blink. figure! There is also the point of protecting the...

      The male protagonist’s family entered at night and the thief was shot to death by the male protagonist. The police said it was okay to be defended and the thief was wanted.

      The male protagonist drove to the thief’s funeral and met the thief’s father who was just out of prison. An old man entered the man’s house and left bullets. The police squatted guarding the man’s house on rainy nights. He actually hid in the man’s house...

      The defeat of meaning

      The film was made to make people forget the lens, the lines, and the scenes, and leave a long-lasting shock in their hearts. The story of the film has this potential, but the rest of the medium is so widespread that it becomes a work with words greater than meaning.

      1. The photographic techniques that frequently appear at the beginning and in the middle to create suspense are very uninteresting, making a story with infinite connotations into a single event.

      2. The good and...

      How can a person's character change so fast

      After Michael played the role of the framemaker and killed a burglar, he was very frightened, extremely depressed, and the reaction of the people in the town. It can be completely seen that Michael is usually very conservative, honest, and even a Puritan. As a result, When the three of them went to find another person's son for the last time, they started to kill. Is this a bloodthirsty forensic movie version? Compared with another American drama "Ice Blood Storm", which talks about the...

      Dexter looks old, the plot is a bit messy, and it's relatively plain without a particularly big hit. The character Richard finally turned his emotions a bit fast. The red bitch car is too sloppy. The words of the biggest father and son are a bit abusive to the original, and the sentence that the son does not teach the father's fault floats through my mind....

      He accidentally killed the person who invaded his home in the middle of the night, and then endured the revenge of his father who was just released from prison. However, it was discovered by accident that the murdered person recorded by the police was not the one who killed himself, and the arrested father was taken away by the police still on the rails. After saving the life, it turned out that his son was not dead, but the police pointed him to him in order to solve the case as soon as...

    Jim Mico's thriller, which is flawed but has enough visibility, once again proves that he is a very stylized director in this field   . ("Hollywood Reporter" review)
    The film can be regarded as a slightly surprising work. The director's favorite horror and violence theme and the retro image style created with care are fully integrated into this suspicious scene of son killing. The film is well-intentioned in creating suspense, and as...
