The background of the story is set in the not too distant future. The government approves and encourages the "clearing plan" to kill the people you want to kill, so as to cast a one-time accumulation of violence for a year, within 24 hours. Effective, I can see this strange to bizarre structure. After all, this is an impossible real-world setting like Utopia, so it becomes important to tell a good story.
but! ! The most important content is a mess except for the general setting. The male protagonist's family's brains were kicked by donkeys.
First of all, the protagonist's family clearly knows that there is a cleaning plan for tonight, but they wait until the moment before the start to "almost forgot" to open the security measures. Pack up and go to the toilet, okay? Sure enough, your family's life seems really not important.
Also, is it necessary for the director and screenwriter to be so anxious to show us the omen of dying children? Not long after the film came out, the characters and flaws were told to the audience one by one in a very straightforward way, as if I was afraid that I would not know: my daughter was still a student and she was a show off. I also know that the young man who will have problems is messing with it, and his son has to kill himself. In a critical moment, he shows his love and lets a homeless man into the house.
My parents are too stupid, so many weapons, I'm willful, I only have a small pistol, and the two arrogant children in his family run around by themselves. The most conversation between husband and wife is where is the son? Where is the daughter?
My daughter is still going to shoot her father's boyfriend, please, if this is the case, I will shoot him immediately before he is dead.
Does the anti-social male villain have to imitate the look and feel of a clown? The appearance of wearing a mask can't be more like "Stranger Killing".
Of course, not only are all of them shortcomings, but because of the above reasons, I have been able to persevere. In the latter third of the time, I almost fast-forwarded and watched it without affecting the plot.
PS: The film is produced by Jason Blum, who once produced "Sinister", which also starred Ethan Hawke.
It's a pity that the male god I used to love very much like his patient role and all kinds of relationships with Jude Law.
By the way, I also watched the movie "Sinister", the same garbage movie, but at least the details are better than this movie. Like "Eden Lake", good ideas and frameworks are filled with rough plots by the director and screenwriter, which is much worse than the otherworldly worldview "The Hunger Games".
