The story of this movie is changed based on real events, and I still prefer to watch this kind of movies. Because most of the real events that can be adapted are quite interesting, as long as they are well adapted, they can be seen.
The movie has no dazzling special effects, no exciting story, no fierce battle of wits between liars and whistleblowers as imagined. The lies of the liar are not superb. He is too far from the master of crime Moria. He is just a clever speculator. He uses some loopholes to achieve success. The whistleblower is not actually a great detective. The reason why the liar is not exposed is because he is a good employee and colleague, and he has the trust of people around him. The colleague urged him not to say that the new editor he thought was directed against him also interceded for him when the incident first happened, hoping that the media that discovered the fraud would let him go, "because he is a kid who made mistakes." But they didn't expect that the darling of this company was a habitual offender.
This story gives people a very real feeling. It is not only a suspenseful story, it also contains interpersonal relationships in reality, so the embarrassment it brings to people is also very real. Over time the truth is revealed little by little, you can really feel that kind of embarrassing feeling. Anyway, I was almost dying in embarrassment when I watched it. I almost had to stop for a few minutes, otherwise I could die in embarrassment in front of the screen.
Must praise Hayden's acting skills! This movie is really the one with the best acting skills among Hayden movies I have watched so far. Hayden himself gave me the feeling that he was a dragging noble son, probably because he came from a rich family. But here he couldn't see the tugging feeling at all, on the contrary, he felt that Stephen was a little bit embarrassed. The story is divided into two lines, one is his speech in a class, and the other is his life in the company, using his narration to combine the two lines. I think he controlled the different moods and expressions in the two scenes very well. In the classroom, he is self-confident, but not arrogant; in the office, he is considerate of his colleagues, and is a little flattering. I think the difference between these two expressions was performed by him, and neither is good.
I like his performance near the end the most, it makes people feel embarrassed and distressed. It was not the part where he was crying, but his expression when he was in the classroom, watching the classroom become empty, and the expression with an embarrassing smile that finally checked his fake news. I knew he was wrong, but I felt sorry for him.
At the end, I was yelling in my heart: You are jealous of him for his handsome appearance! [Brain fans are splashing and rolling! hahahahahahahaha!
