It doesn't matter if it's ugly, but you have to pretend to be deep

When I was 18 or 19 years old, I always watched some pretentious movies with the spirit of the young pioneers raising the national flag, such as Zhang Yuan's "Beijing Bastards", Jia Zhangke's "Platform", etc. There are more foreign movies that are similar to pretending , forgot the name, because you really have a hard time remembering these BullShit
names. I only know that I was yawning at the time and thought it was a bit reasonable, but I didn't understand it.
Later, after being deceived more times, you will know that there are actually two types of movies: good-looking and bad-looking. Just like there are two kinds of people: men and women, oh. . . A classmate reminded me that there is a third type of female doctor. Yes! This "Revolver" obviously belongs to the category of female doctors, so it doesn't matter if it is ugly, and it has to be sophisticated.
In fact, there are also some interesting elements in the film, such as the scene where the bald killer started killing, and there are several animation clips interspersed that remind me of "Kill Bill". The voice of the protagonist's monologue is also very good, very similar to the FPS game "Max Payne. As for the cutting technique that is interspersed upside down, this thing is like some Japanese AVs, who like to do some bizarre positions. The person who does it seems to be very high, and the person who watches it may not be.
As for the plot, I have stopped discussing the plot to try to come up with a reasonable explanation. Yes, you can make all kinds of statements, and three representatives can explain a thousand words of thesis, if you have to. But I can say that the director is playing tricks. You know, it's easier to pretend to be deep than it is to make up a good story.
When the protagonist in the back was playing a double (multiple?) personality in the elevator alone, I was already physically disgusted, what the hell is this? I have also seen the ten-fold personality ("Fatal ID"), and I have never seen such a failure.
Summary, very annoying movie, 0 points. "Slam Dunk" is much better than it.
