      smart movie

      The Oxford Murder Case sounds like a very good name, but when it started playing, it felt a little wrong. Why is the title displayed in English letters, but not English words when combined? It was only later that I found out that it was a Spanish movie.

      The male protagonist is Hobbit Frodo in The Lord of the Rings, the supporting actor is a very familiar old man actor, and the other actors are unknown. As a result, the film has a Spanish director, an American protagonist, a British...

      How many people can understand it?

      How many people can understand it? Many people regard this film as a suspense and reasoning drama. In fact, what the author expresses is that logical reasoning disrupts the development of things.

      The rules of the game can no longer stop the Archmage

      Savvy professor!
      When I started to induce the police to investigate in the direction of serial murder,
      I also suggested that this may be the
      harm done by a nerd to overthrow his own theory. I always thought that the roommate was the murderer

      . The film discussed more about human nature than the truth. The

      professor said that it
      does not exist. There is no way to find an absolute truth, an uncontroversial proposition, to help people answer their questions....

      Killer or mathematician?

      The opening sentence of the film intrigued me: I'd rather make a mistake than do something!
      This is also the motive for the murder in the beginning of the whole film!
      Some people commented that they didn't understand it.
      I'm not going to analyze this movie in terms of chaos, mathematical logic, or philosophical depth.
      Just saying what I know about this movie!
      Why is it not clear who is the real murderer?
      Professor Selton admitted his words before saying that the...

      you should try it

      To be honest, in terms of plot, this film is not very good, but the heroine in it is very charming, and has always been fascinated by foreign beauties with dark hair and eyes.
      The name of the film is very tempting, Oxford+Murder,
      but after watching the whole film, it is always I can't connect math with this murder, maybe I'm rather dull, I like some of the shooting techniques in it, especially the scene after the bleak cello performance and before the first murder, almost all the...

      The long shot that starts at 19:35 is well done, the only thing I like about it is here. This film is very mysterious, and it makes me, a person who is not good at mathematics, very confused. If I don’t understand it, I understand it, but I really don’t feel the charm of the mathematics in it, so I don’t. Just be attracted to it. Well, despite the long lens and the stunning scenery, it's not three stars, two...

      At first glance, it feels like it was adapted from a novel, and the ending is a reversal of the "cliché". This is also the routine of mystery novels, and there is no way. The film uses so many philosophical, mathematical and logical terms, which greatly affects the viewing experience. The long shot in the middle is amazing, but it feels very fake. It is estimated that it was made. It is too fantastic to be able to move the mirror so elegantly. They really look like Harry Potter and Gandalf from...

      Too much luck allowed the case to continue, so those symbols that I didn't understand at all appeared one by one... The footage of the film is very good, the old man is very good at acting, and little Elijah finally grew up in the Lord of the Rings and Dabo The female university is engaged in pornography... and the butterfly effect theory has once again been verified outside of...

      This is definitely an underrated work, director of Venice Golden Lion + Lord of the Rings Fodo + Elephant Man's old play bone + Spanish beauty. I admit with excitement that I am an idiot, because I don't know anything about mathematics, philosophy, chaos and logic in the whole film, but the director has perfectly combined academic, rhythm, story and male protagonists. sex, so it is highly ornamental. I haven't seen such exciting classical reasoning in a long...

      Is it a mystery or a mystery, a director showing off his skills, or there really are such a group of people in the world that are beyond our understanding. . . The style of the most complicated murder case in history is...

    As a suspense film, the film uses a lot of mathematical equations, as well as logic and mathematical theory. The film tells the story of a series of serial murders that took place in a British institution of higher learning   . (CCTV Online Review)
    The horror of the film is not to make people creepy through the pictures, nor to use a cunning rhythm to make people dare not breathe, but to try to guide people to take a breath when they...

    • Lorna: You're like two kids fighting over a ball.

      Arthur Seldom: And you're the ball?

      Lorna: No, I'm the nurse who's going to spank your bottoms if you don't shut up.

    • Arthur Seldom: The only perfect crime that exists is not the one that remains unsolved, but the one which is solved with the wrong culprit

    • Arthur Seldom: Of all the vast mountains of knowledge that as of yet you have not scaled, Martin, this slope is one of the most slippery. Be careful.
