human hole

Jacques Baker's "The Hole" is a prison break. "Hole" means to dig a hole to escape. Like a documentary, the film described the hardship, length and thrill of digging a hole in great length and detail in more than two hours.

In the process of watching the movie, people will have a hunch that there will be spies among the gang of prisoners, because when a new prisoner is sent to the cell, the other four prisoners discuss at length whether the new prisoner is trustworthy or not. The man turned out to be a spy. But that spy was not a premeditated undercover agent, his betrayal was due to human nature.

The warden told him that his wife had dropped the charges and that he would be released soon. At this time, if he doesn't tell the others, he will be regarded as an accomplice, and he will be imprisoned for many years. At this time, the dark side of his humanity is exposed. In order to protect himself, he surrendered the other four.

The more arduous the process of digging the holes ahead, the more despicable the whistleblower will appear.

In fact, these simple adventures and excitement can't attract me, I want to see some interesting or intriguing details. So I gave up after seeing it for an hour. But in order to know the ending, I had to watch it patiently.

    The 90/100 movie uses a lot of scene narration to fully present the key steps of the prison escape for the audience, showing a highly contagious level of scene scheduling. In fact, there are very few classic films that lack subtext expression that can give me such a convincing experience. Of course, it is also because the conflicting events in the script are set just right, with the flashback opening, which completely saves the suspense until the end.
