The story is good, the plot is quite attractive, and the shortcomings are obvious.
The structure of the story is not natural enough, some plots are too deliberate, and xx for the sake of xx is somewhat weak in promoting the plot. The rhythm and style are slightly unstable, and most of the hand-held camera parts are unnecessary. Excessive shaking of the hand-held often brings some tension, but the style of the story itself tends to be cold and somewhat inconsistent. Yes, but chatting with the devil, can we stop shaking the camera, the atmosphere is a bit pricey. The logic of the ending of the movie is not very able to drive the audience. I think it is still a problem with the creation of the plot.
Talking about the theme of the movie, there is nothing wrong with the evil in the world. It is not possible to understand the evil in the world with goodwill or legal punishment. Revenge should have the appearance of revenge. It is a good way to use revenge to force all the feelings out and show them to the audience. However, the plot trend began to discuss how to use evil to defeat evil and how to do evil, which reduced the perception.
Talk about revenge movies. I prefer "Confession", "Old Boy" and "Kind Gold". Among them, Confession and Old Boy are the best, but there is a threshold for the audience. For example, Old Boy is not easy for female audiences to accept. Revenge, love, evil It's twisted together, because it's not purely a mix of flavors within you that hits your senses and your mind. Kind Gold is almost the most traditional and textbook in revenge films. The picture, rhythm, and style are complete and unified, and the release of emotions also reaches its peak in the process of telling the story. This is the level of the creator. According to Jiang Wen's words, you have to ferment these grapes into wine in order to achieve the best effect and leave your imprint in the hearts of the audience.
