A good movie that seems to kill Bill

I won't talk about the acting skills of the actors, because the acting is very good, not to lose Anthony Hopkins~ I will just talk about the plot.

When I first watched this movie, I kept thinking about what the movie wanted to say. I saw a lot of elements: World War II, Revenge, Japan, Gong Li == b, and Katana. Seriously, when I saw the Katana, I suddenly thought of Wolverine, Batman, Killing Bill. It seems that in the West, katana (and Bushido and related) has been labeled with the name: Revenge.

With the continuous development of the plot of the film, I have seen a strong sense of sight to kill Bill, but the form of killing Bill is more like a comic, with bright colors, exaggerated movements and exciting music. The young Hannibal is elegant, skilled, and calm, and his music is noble and elegant. This style is also necessary. Obviously, since it is a prequel, the style must be the same.

Halfway through the movie, I suddenly thought, if this work is made independent, will the audience’s appreciation angle change? Because although it is the third part of this series, it is a prequel, so the story told should be at the forefront of the timeline of the entire series, so even if it is taken out alone, it will not affect the storyline. . Regarding this issue, I didn't think about it, so I just write something casually. First of all, most people watching this movie are trying to figure out what makes Hannibal now. His life experience used to be the highlight of the whole movie, but Gong Li and the ongoing revenge seem to be unnecessary. . And if as an independent movie, his life experience and the past are obviously foreshadowing, the whole revenge is the wonderful thing, and such a slightly tedious performance technique is obviously impossible and extremely tense but not connotative to kill. Bill's good-looking (note that the above is what I thought when I saw it halfway)

just when I watched the storyline irreversibly slide to an ordinary revenge movie (dry, katana or something, it is definitely a strong kill Bill’s sense of sight!) When the movie came to an end, I thought to myself: Okay, the first two are already very good. With the perfect performance of Anthony Hopkins, it is a good match for the main characters in the series. Love and admiration are enough to make me a fan of the Hannibal series to forgive this clichéd movie.

But at this moment, the plot turned around. Vladis Grutas said before his death: You also ate her meat! To be honest, all the previous preparations I think are pale to Dr. Hannibal's perversion. Until Vladis Grutas said this, Hannibal's tipping point was finally reached. All his revenge was just for revenge on those who ate his sister. He would not and would not allow himself to eat the meat of his favorite sister and drank the broth. At this time, the young Hannibal was about to complete his transition to Dr. Hannibal, but it was still a little short. If he can rely on or come home again, after his revenge, perhaps these unbearable memories will become the past, and he will gradually become a normal person, let love fill the void in his heart (there is a bridge before It was Hannibal who was doing the polygraph test, and the agent said he did not have any emotional fluctuations).

Hannibal said to his heart, he loves his aunt, his only relative (love?), but apparently his aunt can't understand his crazy behavior, and said: What else can you love me? After speaking, he turned and left. This sentence completely defeated Hannibal and turned him into Dr. Hannibal. I think the foreshadowing in the front is for the last two sentences. Now he himself is also a monster that eats his sister, and the hollow in his heart is no longer filled, so he is completely blackened. At this point in the story, I feel that I have portrayed his transformation perfectly.

The structure of the whole movie is a sandwich with revenge in the middle. Both sides are explaining the changes in Dr. Hannibal's heart, only through narration in the front and dialogue in the back.

After watching the whole movie, I felt that it was completely different from killing Bill. All the previous brains were misunderstandings about this movie, except for the katana==, there was Gong Li. At first I thought that my face blindness had happened again, and I had recognized the wrong person, so I looked at the cast list. It really is! Great, Gong Li actually participated in such a good movie.
