total stranger

Perfect Stranger is one of the few Chinese names I have seen that matches the English name and is very appropriate for the movie.
The process of the heroine's pursuit of HILL made the audience think that HILL was a criminal, but it was not. The heroine did it herself, and everything was a trap she designed. Her so-called fading is actually her enemy. It is no wonder that at the police station, when the heroine comforted the mother of the deceased, her expression and language were a little weird. The language of mourning did not carry sad feelings, and she could not see it in her eyes. How much comfort, I didn't pay much attention to this detail at the time, although I felt something was wrong, but thinking about it, maybe this is how she behaved, right? The result was a clue. During the investigation, the heroine accidentally discovered that her partner was hiding many secrets, including having an affair with her "enemy" and treating her as the object of sexual fantasies. His secret room was full of nude photos of women. There is also a doll covered in photos, with a photo of the heroine on the head. This immediately reminded me of what Miles mentioned that the police thought the deceased was a serial killer. I immediately thought Miles was the serial killer, and I realized that the strangeness began. But after a pass, there was nothing, which made me a little disappointed. However, Miles does a good job of using the heroine's mobile phone to search for information in order to prove that he didn't do it himself, and it is also an essential part of the ending description. In the end, Miles explained all of this, which led to his death.
According to what many people have said, it should end when HILL is found guilty of betrayal, which is reasonable, but if so, is it called a perfect stranger? If what they see is really such a version, I am afraid that most of the film critics here are two-star, and they will accuse them even more severely. The heroine's HILL is unfamiliar, her close partner is also unfamiliar, and in the end, even herself is unfamiliar, completely unfamiliar to the audience, the director and screenwriter are perfect at this point. The nightmare explains the root of everything at the end, but as usual in American suspense films, the last scene is always the continuation of the nightmare - the person in the opposite window sees everything, but this method is used in this film very reasonable. However, did Miles know too much about the process of the heroine killing people?
In general, the story is over, there are enough surprises and ups and downs, and the acting is also very good. It is a film worth watching.
