      Investigate

      The movie tells the story of two people who start by competing for a woman, and then design and compete with each other in intelligence. The movie is ok, there are only two characters in the whole movie, the scene is only in an apartment, there is no exterior scene, there are no other characters, only two men perform the whole movie, which makes people feel that it is a very low-level movie. For a movie with a low cost production, for a non-secret room horror movie, such a movie can be watched...

      Normal movie, you can watch it

      The so-called battle of wits and courage is a bit pale, and it can only be said that it is ok. Although the director skillfully used the constant change of scenes to create a more complicated scene in a villa, it is still difficult to hide the reluctance in the plot. It’s okay, it’s not necessary to watch it for the second time.

      However, the acting skills of the two protagonists are really not covered. What I admire about this film is the acting skills of the two of them, otherwise I...

      Power comes from the barrel of a gun

      Ashamed to say, I've always been interested in the kind of movies where two men go to each other. It is said that there is also a name for this kind of movie, called "Two Heroes Fighting Wisdom" - which sounds much more elegant than my statement. Movies of this type, whether it's "Dark War", "Pirates of Fire" or "Cat and Mouse", "Ace vs Ace", are all very good looking. Of course, not all are good-looking. For example, this "Very Conflict", after watching it, except that Jude Law is really a...

      About Jude Law

      I have seen several Jude law movies. According to the filming time sequence, from "Wilde", the slutty aristocrat who can kill with a smile, to the exaggerated but very kind dance boy robot in "Artificial Intelligence AI", from "Barrier to the City" In "Cold Mountain", the sniper whose sky blue eyes seemed to be able to freeze, went to the wounded soldier who had to go home to see his wife. Until I watched "Sleuth" today, it can be said that Jude Law's acting skills are getting better and...

      Blank bullets in life

      Life is nothing more than a process of being constantly attacked by blank bombs. After being frightened and feared, people will taste the benefits of learning. Self-discipline and moral training are all values ​​after blank bombs. But if you just blindly resist life and resent the people and things that shoot you, then life will eventually send a real bullet, and that day may be the end of life.

      The screenwriter has unlimited talent, and the two male protagonists in a villa with a repressed design are full of tension and infinite possibilities. At first glance, the ending has a sudden sense of haste. The suspected homosexual part of the third game is really disturbing the sight!!! Because the whole film is just such a scene, it's hard to thick line like a gay plot, can you not be...

      I haven't seen the version in the 1970s and heard that it is better than this. It was originally a stage play and was later put on the screen. Personally, I think this movie is not simply a conspiracy about the madness and evil in the character's mental state? Who is the real...

      Gay film, the whole film is filled with ambiguous ambiguity between two men. In the end, the two gay friends finally broke out. If I were gay, I would give this film 10 stars too little, but unfortunately, my brother is a normal person...

      If seeing Brad Pitt a few years ago reminds me of Robert Redford, then in the UK, Jude Law also reminds me of Michael Caine. He is also an elegant English man. Of course, to me Jude Law pays more attention to beauty, Grandpa Caine pays more attention to temperament... In addition to this film's director Uncle Kenneth Branagh (he was a classically beautiful uncle, now he's older and looks a bit like a little old man), when I see him, I think of the British The senior Laurence Olivier... This...
