The "instinct" in 1992 brought people a brand-new style of film, psychological suspense and explicit eroticism, and got a win-win for the box office and word-of-mouth. The classics are always classics, and trying to surpass the classics is a foolish thing. So, after 14 years, I saw a pretty satisfactory sequel. I think that if you haven't watched the previous film, the film is still a commercial film that you can watch, but compared with the previous film, the plot is the same, and the suspense element is greatly weakened. After watching the first part, what many people talked about was the last icebreaker hidden under the bed, the finishing touch. It is hard to imagine that in this film, the scene of the female writer's murder was shown to the audience from the very beginning, so there is no suspense! As for eroticism, there are young and beautiful actresses who are willing to show off. The aunt-level Sharon Stone can no longer be a selling point.
Hollywood may not know the Chinese proverb "strike while the iron is hot", but it took 14 years to think of making such a classic sequel. What's even more failing is that the heroine didn't change. A 48-year-old aunt still wants to play sexy, isn't she smashing her own signature. After 92, Sister Sha basically disappeared, and she couldn't figure out why she didn't take advantage of the popularity to make a few more films, but she had to come back to stir-fried rice 14 years later. Maybe it’s the script. Compared with the previous work, the heroine in the sequel is a bit aggressive and sharp, and the desire to control is too external. It’s not like in the first one, one action and one hint can play a man in the palm of his hand. , Which greatly weakened the element of psychological suspense. This also makes Sister Sha's performance more slut, although her erotic drama has been greatly reduced compared to the first one.
