      Prey's little puzzled

      I watched this movie by accident because it was not in my plan at all. When I was wandering around the theater, I saw the introduction-disaster thriller, but I missed the word disaster. I don't like watching disaster movies.

      I gave this film 4 stars, which is really encouraging. I can't deny that the plot of the film still made me nervous. But there are a few things that I can't let go of.

      Amy and 2 children were attacked by a pride of lions. That jeep might be the only prop...

      It's a really weak plot progression

      Logical errors are even more failures in failure. The plot is unreasonable. As a shocking film, it is not scary at all. The level is inaccurate. The life and death of 
        women and children unpredictable / fierce and mighty wild lions / magnificent scenery of the African grasslands / the best local hunter in the legend / It was originally a two-line development plot that was very suitable for adjusting the rhythm of the story, but the procrastination and unreasonable logic in the progress of...

      Experience Pains Together

      I think this can only be regarded as a post-viewing experience, some influence on myself and some understanding inspired by it.

      The initial low touch. After experiencing difficulties together. Get along with each other. communicate. To build up feelings between each other silently. trust.
      sometimes. We just want the other party to give us a chance to accept us. Have a taste. It's not impossible.
      However, in life, we have to learn to grasp.

      Active and passive....

      This movie caused me not to sleep well at night, and it's worthless for innocent people!

      This film is still a typical American movie in general.
      Tell a short story with a seemingly powerful plot.
      The lion in the movie is the most interesting, at least it is more realistic. .
      But the plot of the characters in it is really unflattering!
      To be honest, the main line should be family. Then it highlights the changes in the relationship between the daughter and the stepmother.
      Well, I saw the last change in the relationship. But there is no moment that makes...

      Prey (2007)

      I went to watch "Prey" with my baby today, and I was totally disappointed...
      In the huge Oscar theater, there were only two people (like a private room~haha~~~), and I got a little excited at that time. The sound effects and some sudden shots were really scary, but the plot really couldn't stand scrutiny, and the ending was very clichéd. In short, it is a completely bad film that is piled up with commercial elements such as blood, violence, countless coincidences, and all thrillers must...

      As a thriller, "The Lion's Mouth" isn't great, but I must admit that I was terrified several times throughout the viewing process. It's a different kind of fright than the heart-pounding experience of watching Jurassic Park or Jaws. It was a long, suffocating tension. Although the level of the director and screenwriter is not high, the cameraman's control of the camera is in place. The long shot of the confrontation between several people and lions is the highlight of this film's...

      Still remember the school organization watching in the auditorium... I was so scared that I fell off the small plastic bench. ....

      It turned out that what was introduced to the cinema was actually a TV movie produced by South Africa, not a Hollywood blockbuster. But the jump scares and the "gore scenes" scared me enough at the...

    Behind the scenes gags

    The beast lion in the film is a professional animal actor from Hollywood. Because lions have many roles in the film, the film producer specially arranged 5 lions trained as actors from birth to fly from the United States to South Africa to perform   .
    Although the lion in the film was deeply trained in Hollywood movies, it was officially filmed in the forests of South Africa. In one scene, a 650-pound lion jumped on the roof of the car....

    Evaluation action

    "Prey" interprets a life-and-death contest between humans and lions, and the disparity in power between beasts and weak women and children is full of dramatic tension and suspense. The film has a more documentary and tragic style, which retains the more primitive fear and horror of humans towards beasts, and expresses the fear embodied by humans in harsh environments to the fullest extent, allowing the audience and the protagonist to...
