      A bloody case caused by several packs of drugs.

      As far as the plot of the movie is concerned, there are no bright spots, and the plot develops slowly. If it really reflects the incident, it is not realistic enough to use such a shooting angle.
          Movies can reflect the drug or crime situation in the region, but there are also movies about the drug trade in the United States, at least the plot is much better than this.
          This movie seems to have been nominated by many film festivals, maybe because I think it is realistic and can...

      non-professional evaluation

      After reading the comments of many people, I always feel that I don't understand this film.

      First of all, this is the first time I write a film review, and the angle is also very unprofessional, I hope it will not cause controversy.

      I think that this film does not have too many filmmaking methods, but is more like a documentary in rural Mexico. It gives a feeling of insecurity caused by insecurity (although the protagonist does not have the obvious unease on the surface). It...

      The combination of documentary style and innocent perspective maintains an escalating sense of horror and dramatic tension

      The Cannes Film Festival awarded the Best Director Award to the Mexicans for two consecutive years in 2013 and 2014, but they missed the well-known "Mexican Three Heroes". Both winners are the direct line directors who were cultivated and grown by Cannes: Carlos Legadas and Amat Escalante. The reputation of the works of the two authors and directors who participated in the competition was not very good, and the scores of the field magazines were ranked in the middle and lower reaches....

      The end of April

      She's in her room, she's lying on her bed, she starts to cry... The Iscalat movie Hurley ends with this like the end of April has failed, spring has disappeared and summer has yet to come. The subject matter of drug trafficking in Mexico is as commonplace as everyday life, and direct presentation would not be met with bland criticism of the film's emptiness or interpretation of the overall structure of the work as a bit of performance art of hanging corpses on flyovers and burning dicks....

      How risky is it to raise a daughter?

      I have seen a lot of similar film and television themes. The daughter's man killed her biological father. How much risk does it take to raise a daughter? This film should basically be ruined. I don't know why the director left his brother as a living victim. The terrorists are soft-hearted? I'm going~! There is a saying that girls are outgoing, is it true? When a woman grows up, she just wants to be happy with her man? The same goes for the girl's line: We leave this place and never come...

      At last year's Best Director Award at Cannes, the first three long shots were very catchy, and there were a few sudden, pornographic and violent scenes in the back that seemed to invade life everywhere. The places with a strong sense of design, such as killing dogs twice, games and torture at home, and going to bed after revenge, are...

      Why do so many people take Iscalat and Mandosabi? I don't think the shaky follow-through, close-to-real effect is more impactful than this...

      The scene of burning JJ is simply. . . . ....

    Movie plot

    Heli is a worker in a machinery factory. He lives with his father, sister, wife and children. His wife was often unable to meet his sexual needs.
    Meanwhile, 12-year-old sister Estella falls in love with a 17-year-old SWAT cadet. The training of this SWAT team is very cruel. If a team member vomits because he can't stand the super-intensive training, the instructor will force him to roll back and forth on the vomit, and even pour urine...

    Evaluation action

    Heli is full of confrontation and violence. The film's plot is very realistic, but the director's frequent use of long takes, jumpy cuts and peculiar camera movements, has become a failure.
    The film starts off with a long shot that starts with a close-up of two bloodied corpses in a truck, and it's an excellent shot. The sequence ends with a shocking hanging, after which the film begins a flashback. The protracted and relentless...
