Maybe I won't learn to appreciate evil. No matter how well-mannered and courteous he is, no matter how gentle and elegant he is, no matter how funny he is, I can't fall for him. No matter how much he struggled, how desperate, I couldn't forgive him. Maybe my view of good and evil is deeply ingrained, or maybe it's because I've read books on serial killers. As far as the film is concerned, there are some discrepancies with the real situation:
1. Serial killers are emotionless. They don't feel regret or guilt after killing people, and their ability to "love" is very weak. Most serial killers live alone because they are unable to form normal relationships. Someone like mr.brooks with a happy family and a deep, great love for his wife and daughter can't possibly be a serial killer.
2. After a serial killer kills, he will feel excited, this movie is right, but people like mr.brooks don't feel guilty and quit. To put it bluntly, they don't feel the pain of others, so they don't have the feeling of guilt. Moreover, the killing behavior of serial killers has a cycle, which is indeed very similar to drug use. At the beginning, you use drugs once a day, and soon you will upgrade to two or three times a day... Serial killers also have their own cycles, because The requirements for the pleasure of killing will become shorter and shorter, and while the killing skills are perfect, the mental self-control will become worse and worse (this is why in the later stage, serial killers sometimes make mistakes and leave clues). A murderer like mr.brooks who did not act by self-control for two years does not exist. There are only two reasons a serial killer stops killing: One, he's dead. Two, he's in jail. To let them stop by themselves, there has only been one such person in history.
3. Serial killers are acquired, mainly related to early growth experiences, and their adult life is also critical. All serial killers grew up in unhealthy families, most were beaten and abused, and a few were mentally abused (e.g., their mothers were rough and controlling); as adults, unsatisfactory life situations made them feel out of control. Basically all sexually related serial killers are for "control, manipulation". When unemployment, lovelorn, mother's death, etc. happen in this person's life, it is likely to be the trigger for his massacre. But a big man like mr.brooks can get a full sense of control from his own life, and it is hard to imagine that he has to kill amateurs to enrich this feeling.
4. Serial killers are acquired, that is, not inherited. so, mr.brooks is a serial killer doesn't make his daughter one , too. This is the most ridiculous thing in the movie, because it makes the movie the saddest, full of fateful sadness, and a little bit of causal reincarnation. I cruelly and coldly took your life, made you cry, made you scream, made you despair - and then the one I love most cruelly and coldly took my life, made me cry, made me cry, made me Fear makes me heartbroken. i fucked with you ,and i'm fucked. ~
At the end of the film, when MR.BROOKS stood on the top of the building and called TRACY, I was looking forward to him jumping off and ending his sinful life perfectly. The result disappointed me! But let the big stone fall in the hearts of MR.BROOKS fans! Ha ha!
