A large number of elements are piled up and are not attracted to

The film ostensibly tells of a young and middle-aged homeboy who has nothing to do. He spied a beautiful woman while peeping. After the two met for the first time, they agreed to see you the next day. The woman’s house was vacated overnight. A series of investigations, searches, and explorations were carried out, but as a result, there was no result.

The reason for the accumulation of a large number of elements is that there are many old movies, old music, and old video games presented in movies. These have a lot of sense of substitution for people of a certain age, but people who are not in this age have little resonance. .

The whole movie looks a bit groggy, and the front is very good, but the reasoning and neurotic characters that have appeared one after another are coming in. The feeling in the clouds and fog, the horror is not obtained, and it feels more nervous.

The film is full of metaphors about Los Angeles, the film and television industry, and marginal people. Under the surface of the story, the creators want to express too much, but from the surface, how many ordinary viewers can get the pleasure? This is very difficult to say.

At least as far as I am concerned, I am not familiar with the relevant elements and I am not attracted to it.
