didn't fall asleep at all

Before watching the film, I read everyone's comments here, and found that several people fell asleep watching it. So I don't have much hope for this film, and I plan to use it as a hypnotic tool before going to bed. In the end, I watched it all at once, and I thought it was pretty good. Some people say that the acting skills of the two are very good, but I don't agree with them very much. Jude Law's performance is a little too exaggerated, especially the part after he played the old man; Michael Caine is cunning and insufficient. However, it is also a transplant of the stage play, which is much better than "Stealing Heart", so I still have to praise it.

This re-make of the 1972 Mankiewicz classic, as remakes go, is really not so bad. Glossier, and more fraught with homoertic tension.

Come on! Are the people who gave this movie two stars and three stars are blind? This movie is extremely good! Jude Law thoroughly proved that he does not need to be famous by appearance! I LOVE this movie!

Andrew Wyke: So you're not well-known.
Detective Inspector Black: No, I'm a common-or-garden copper. Just catch sex criminals, perverts.
[sniff]
Detective Inspector Black: Homicidal maniacs.
Andrew Wyke: And what do you do with them when you catch them?
Detective Inspector Black: I generally cut their balls off.
