First of all, the movie has its advantages. As far as the look of the screen is concerned, it is very strong. There are always bright highlights in the lens to strike the eyeballs. Woodley's big breasts are also very charming, he scores low and loses his conscience. Belongs to white prostitution. Back to the story, there are many shortcomings. This is a common problem with the American version of the novel adaptation of the film, that is, the rhythm of the story is not good, and it is always worse than the original script. This rhythm may be based on the rhythm of the original novel, but if you move it to the movie, you lose the circumflex that the movie should have. The movie only takes one and a half to two hours, so it is impossible to make a good novel adaptation of a movie without grasping the rhythm. A typical example is "Dragon Tattoo Girl", everything is good, the sensory stimulation is sufficient, and the actors are fine. The director is also a big name, but the only difference is the transition between the rhythm of the novel and the rhythm of the movie. Here you can imagine the importance of this adaptation. He was not sure, everything was over.
This is not to say that the rhythm of the genre film is a unified standard, but the rhythm must refer to the limitation of the film time. Because of the loose rhythm (the first half of the heroine’s fall in love to the disappearance of her mother, and the second half of returning home during college), there are obviously too many details and too many side plots. This is the rhythm of the novel. Plots that were supposed to function (such as the relationship change between the girlfriend and the boyfriend, the mother's intention to seduce her boyfriend, etc.) became useless in the reversal of the ending. Dad and boyfriend are GAY, this is a strong setting, a hard turning point. The history portrayal of the parents and the portrayal of the mother seduce her boyfriend (here is still a large-length portrayal, which belongs to the focus) are all dispelled. The unreasonable ending of this movie caused 60% of the entire movie to become useless. It doesn't matter if one is more or one is less. In the end, the confrontation between the father and the daughter should be the climax of the whole film. Because the body was not found, it was misplaced. Here is a very clever design. If only the father catches the rape and kills the mother in bed, although it is in line with the spectators of the audience, there is no surprise, but the overall logic can be smooth. The rhythm of the whole film can also be turned into a film novel, and the reasons for the rhythm of the novel are overshadowed by the past, but everyone is sincere, and obviously the director does not want to do this. As a result, it's normal to play off.
