Retro suspense theme, the ending is also very exciting, but the process is a bit lengthy

0. The plot of the movie is the third type of contact incident that occurred in a remote place one night in the 1950s

advantage:

1. Both male and female protagonists have good acting skills, and they have deeply penetrated the hearts of the people in a short period of time.

2. Several long shots are good, and they are even amazing, especially from the heroine to the basketball court.

3. Few supporting roles have appeared, but they have indeed played an important role

4. The performances of the black soldiers with only voices and the old lady who seemed crazy

5. Very good restoration of the humanistic atmosphere of the streets in the 1950s

6. The ending is extremely unfolding, extremely unexpected

7. Just relying on dialogue creates an excellent atmosphere of suspense and horror

shortcoming:

1. Large conversations lack interest and appeal for most people

2. The background of the movie takes place at night, and almost nothing can be seen clearly from beginning to end...

3. The retro feel is good, but too retro is not a good thing

The Vast of Night quotes

  • Mabel Blanche: I think at the lowest level, they send people on errands, and play with people's minds. They sway people to do things, and think certain ways - so that we stay in conflict, focused on ourself - so that we're always .. cleaning house, or losing weight, or dressing up for other people. I think they get inside our heads and make us do destructive things, like drink and over eat. I've seen good people go bad, and smart people go mad.

    Mabel Blanche: I think at the highest level they do things that cause nations to go to war. Things that make no sense. And I think no one knows they're being affected. We all work out other reasons to justify our actions. But free will is impossible with them up there. I've had an entire life to think about this. Years alone. And that's what I think.

  • Mabel Blanche: I listen to your broadcast every night. I think you're very good and I hope you can get far away from here.
