The hunger has returned to Mr.
Brooks' brain.
It never really left.
It never really left.
The protagonist of the film, BROOKS, is a polyhedron with dual personalities. On the surface, he is a successful entrepreneur, but also a responsible father and caring husband. However, under the halo, what is hidden in his heart is another personality, MARSHALL, who has a desire and hunger for murder.
MARSHALL lives in BROOKS' subconscious, dominates BROOKS's behavior and thoughts, and enjoys the nerve pleasure brought by bloody murder with BROOKS. BROOKS clearly knows his psychological evil, and tries his best to resist and redeem himself, but the 'last' oath is always forgotten and full of bloody excitement and satisfaction.
The savvy TRACY ATWOOD (Demi Moore) is tasked with investigating bizarre murders. . . It's a pity that the long-awaited DEMI MOORE is actually portrayed as a foil with little effect, and, from beginning to end, maintains an expression. . . dull. . .
The most attractive part of the film is the daughter of BROOKS. His daughter dropped out of school suddenly, apparently because of an unexpected pregnancy, but there is indeed a huge secret behind it. BROOKS found out that his daughter, actually, inherited his genes. . . . The whole film ends with a bloody dream. . . The story begins, continues, and does not end at an indeterminate rhythm. . . It's just, maybe BROOKS will not only struggle with self-blame, evil, but also terrible nightmares in the future.~~~~~~
This film, the biggest point of view, should be the dual-personality self played by Costner and Hurt The constant quarrel between them fully expresses the psychological process of BROOKS' constant struggle and swing. Haha, I was too tired when I watched it, and it took me a long time to understand that two people were used to represent the inner struggle of the same person. . . Very depressed about his own stupidity. .
In fact, everyone is a potential dual personality, and there will be a demon me and an angel me living in the psyche. It's just that most of the time, the angel's me is in control, so, overall, we're all normal good people. But, sometimes, I also think, if I am controlled by the devil, maybe I will be happy too? ? Of course it can't be a big devil like MARSHALL, just be a little devil and be satisfied!
Also impressive is BROOKS's theory of murder. He believes that when choosing the target to be killed, he insists on finding someone who can make his heart 'beat faster' when he wants to be in love; and when he violates this principle, for the sake of his daughter And when he went to kill, he felt very 'dirty'. . . Oh my god, it's so cool.
The DEMI MOORE I love is still beautiful and charming, but when she said so firmly 'i just believe in my huntch (I just believe in my intuition)', it suddenly made me a little trance, thinking I was watching 'HERO', and she's a psychic who can predict when it doesn't happen. ANYWAY, I just feel that her shrewdness and ability are a bit inexplicable and too fake. . . The overall character is a bit lacking.
The bloody dream in the last scene, the music and rhythm are just right, reminds me of "American Beauty", one is the head pierced by scissors, the other is the head pierced by bullets, the same blood, but the same slowness The helpless music, as well as the enjoyment-like touch and unfinished eyes of bystanders. . . . bt. . . . . .
Fortunately it was just a dream.
. . . . . .
Too many uncontrollable desires will eventually destroy a person.
