      Do you copy homework?

      Did you copy your homework? I think, a normal child has copied it. Although the time for copying homework is tight, efficiency is the first, but when you copy the homework by mistake like "1+1=3", you will always correct it, because the students know that the teacher's standard for judging whether the homework has been copied is the wrong question. Same.
      Obviously, American children can't copy homework, because they don't have a lot of homework for exam-oriented education, and naturally...

      There is no danger

      Watching this movie is just for the "American version of hell". I remember the first time I watched "Ghost" in an Internet cafe. From the beginning with my arms around my arms and later when I was two or three meters away from the computer, this film frightened me a lot, and at that time I became addicted to watching horror movies.

      How should I put it, this is a complete remake, with almost no other details, not even some details of the Hong Kong version, such as Cher seeing the...

      If people with this ability can go to Wenchuan before 5.12......

      I haven't watched horror movies for many years
      on a whim, so I bought this movie, and when I got home at 10 o'clock, I was more curious than scared, so I opened the DVD
      . To be honest, I can feel that Americans want to make as beautiful as possible. Beautiful music starts with beautiful music and ends with beautiful music. The content of the story is as perfect as possible, but foreign ghost stories always feel that they are not as good as China, Japan, South Korea and other Asian...

      Please make it more like it, okay?

      It doesn't matter who this director is, I really don't care.
      Every time I watch a movie, I look at the subtitles, ah, the director turned out to be this person. This is not my habit, but after all, I feel that the movie is incomplete if I don't watch it. After all, the director is the soul of the whole film. Without him, it would be like a broken machine, and the assembled products would be of inferior quality.
      But for this movie, I really don't mind because he has absolutely no idea...

      Beautiful women are not enough

      Alba is really beautiful. I was electrocuted when I was playing the violin with my eyes confused at the beginning of the film, but after half an hour I regretted buying a movie ticket to go to the theater, because the plot was almost the same as the Hong Kong version of Hell—— The old man floating in the elevator, the kid who is always asking if you have seen my transcript, the bald little girl in the next ward during the hospitalization...

      Alba doesn't have Li Xinjie's acting skills,...

    Creative background

    "The Eye" is adapted from a 2002 Chinese horror film co- written by Jo Jo Hui , oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang , and directed by oxide Pang Chun and Danny Pang. After the film was released, it attracted the attention of American Hollywood, so it was decided to buy the copyright of the film and get it to be remade in the United States. Since the Chinese version of "Damn" is an out-and-out ghost story, "The Eye" will also involve some...

    Evaluation action

    This horror film originally produced in China is not actually a successful remake, and the beauty Jessica Marie Alba has become the biggest highlight   . (Timeline Review)
    "The Eye" is a remake of the works of the Peng brothers in 2002, but when it came to the Americans, ghosts that were originally purely Chinese traditions were forcibly included in a certain scientific system to avoid incomprehensible cultural differences between...

    Movie quotes

    • [first lines]

      Teen on Skateboard: Oh, shit. Thanks. I didn't see that.

      Sydney Wells: Neither did I.

      Sydney Wells: [voice-over while Sydney walks in the street and settles in a café] People say seeing is believing, but for me, that's not entirely true. I lost my sight when I was five years old. Those memories of what I have seen have faded so much that I doubt I'd even recognize myself anymore. Now I see using my other senses. I can smell the rain before it drops, but I can't watch it fall. I can feel the sun on my face, but I can't see it rise or set. I want to see the world like everyone else, to see the sun, the rain, the music. Oh I bet music looks beautiful.

    • [last lines]

      Sydney Wells: [voice-over while Sydney is playing the violin] Some say seeing is believing. Now I know what they mean. Ana Christina tried to prevent death, but she ultimately powerless to stop it. Ana and I share both a blessing and a curse. I know now I don't need eyes to see what truly matters. The gift of Ana's sight made me see what I was afraid to. To use that vision to not only save myself and others but to give Ana the peace she never found in life.
