It's totally the plot of the old movie

Although this movie is very attractive at first (although anyone with a certain amount of movie-watching experience can guess what's going on), it is really a mess of a good subject. The plot that could have been gripping is plain and ordinary, it could have been The actors of Biao acting only remember one expression after watching it. If it weren't for the feelings of the old movie, I think most people would have bad reviews.
The only thing that touched me in the film was the heroine who struggled for six years in order to see her son again, showing the power of female flexibility, and the flirtation of the young man in the library that refused to make people feel domineering and not lost. Grace. What's admirable for the heroine is that she didn't find her husband and the mistress for revenge at first, not because she didn't hate them, but it was really empty and unnecessary compared to finding revenge for her son. Only after knowing that the actor killed the mistress and later tried to murder herself did she really raise the blade of revenge, which is really admirable.
As for the role played by Tommy Lee Jones, I am really puzzled and speechless. I don’t know the meaning of its existence. Especially for the background of this role: the family was killed because of a car accident, but in the end Nor does it reflect the clichéd "salvation" model in Western movies. It can only be said that the director's skill is really bad. And if it’s just for the hero to save the beauty, it is better to choose a younger and handsome actor, and at the same time to have some emotional drama with the heroine to attract the audience, the setting of this role is simply a failure.
Although there were many classic movies in the 90s, and the handsome men and the beauty of women at that time, unlike the aesthetics of the Chinese and foreign film and television circles, the aesthetics were completely broken. But this movie is not in the list, and there is nothing worthy of savoring and not forgetting. If you watch it just for the old movie, you can ignore my subjective criticism.
