In order to conceal the fact that his family members murdered, the male protagonist relied on the plots of the movies he had seen (highlighting the importance of watching such movies), and launched a series of anti-reconnaissance methods to create evidence that his family members did not have time to kill. I first took the time of destroying my phone and car on October 3, took a pilgrimage, ordered takeaway, stayed in a family hotel, got on the bus, withdrew money from the ATM and let the camera record me , I went to the movie theater, and I still kept 4 tickets stubs. Later, on the 4th and 5th, he took his family back on the pilgrimage road, because it is easier for people to remember what they saw. On the one hand, they let the family write down what they have done along the way, so that they can be questioned by the police later. It also provides the first impression for the witnesses to violate the testimony. After a few days (the film did not specify the specific time), I took my family back on the pilgrimage. Through chats with the conductor, the hotel owner, the hotel service staff, and the film projectionist, they accidentally revealed their family on October 2nd 3. They went on a pilgrimage to deepen their impression of their family and facilitate violations.
Seeing this, I feel that the main part of the film has already been explained, and what the male protagonist has made up for his family on the pilgrimage road is completely natural, and there is no flaw in it. The daughters were so thoughtful about how to deal with the police interrogation, which made people wonder if the male protagonist watched Conan Doyle and the detective Sherlock, haha. When the male protagonist and his wife explained the time to reach the pilgrimage, they both accurately stated that it was 8:30. I don’t know how to sigh, because the criminal investigation said that if you remember everything in the past so clearly, it’s very obvious. It is deliberate. But the male protagonist obviously also considered it, and the daughters’ testimony did not give a detailed time.
There are still some easter eggs at the back of the movie. Considering that the younger daughter is not so determined, she has already moved the position of the body beforehand. Facing the police's interrogation, the power of public opinion was aroused. When confessing to the victim's parents, it was also the case of telling stories. Even if it is a recording, there is no way to use it as evidence; the location of the corpse behind is also very bold, which made me look back at the front of the film and found a lot of foreshadowing.
But as an Indian film, people still have to make complaints. Is torture so common? The host is not far away from home, why doesn't he always go home, and he puts the phone aside, because he can't call in important things. When the mother and daughter faced the male classmate who was threatening with the video, they both adopted a gesture of begging for mercy and begging for letting go, which made people lament the status of Indian women.
Some of the details of the film still can't stand scrutiny. Isn't it possible that no witness can accurately remember the time, and finally only rely on the protagonist to take the initiative to mention them to deepen the impression? In the film, what exactly did the little girl confess to the police, why didn't she find the corpse and didn't pursue it? Couldn't the little daughter's words be used as evidence? India is still lagging behind, and there is no surveillance everywhere. This is also the cause of the male lead's self-directed and self-acting. Or can we directly pull out the video of the intersection, and can we see that the male lead drove the yellow car? I didn't even check the fingerprints on the car, haha.
The music in the film does not sing and dance like normal Indian films, but it is also just right, fully showing the contradictions and tensions of a family. The careful and bold male protagonist is very brilliant.
In short, compared to Chinese entertainment movies, they are still very interesting.
