"The Contest 2" is not a good movie. The rhythm of the first half is too slow, and the second half is too deliberate to create suspense. As for photography, editing, scoring, and performance, there is almost nothing remarkable.
But there are really no loopholes in the plot, only foreshadowing.
The audience may have the biggest doubt after watching "Battle 2": What effect does this operation have when the hero publishes the novel and lets people write the script?
If it is just to say in court: "Ah, the police framed me according to this novel", then the movie has a dramatic effect, but it has no logical and legal significance. Without this novel and this script, all the plots still happened and ended, and then no one knew what happened, and the police would never know how the protagonist was exonerated. In court, even if the lawyer did not use this novel to prove evidence, the judge could only release the male lead; even if he did not release it that day, and found that the corpse was not a victim the next day, he still had to release it.
So why does the hero want "spoiler"? The only explanation is that the novels and scripts are fake and are used to mislead the police. In fact, according to the operation of the novel, the cost, risk and uncertainty are too high and too high, isn't it? The key is: it is impossible for the male protagonist to know that there is still an eyewitness. The possibility of the body being found is too small. Is it worth so much harassment?
So the male protagonist used another method to get rid of sin.
The most likely truth is that the body buried in the police station was already someone else's body, and the victim's body was buried elsewhere by him. Where is it buried? One may be the cemetery of the church, and the source of the other corpse is likely to be there-it is quite possible to find a newly buried corpse and hit the head.
Another possibility is that the witness's little uncle that night-he may be immediately put in a coffin after he was killed, and secretly replaced the body after being discovered by the male protagonist. They were about the same age, and all died of head injuries. There was enough time: witnesses killed the uncle at 12 o'clock, and witnessed the male protagonist's burial at 3:30, and then he was captured. Of course, this possibility only exists. To succeed, chance and risk are too great, no less than the plot of that novel.
No matter what, only by replacing the corpse when the corpse was buried can the male protagonist truly do it once and for all. Next, the male protagonist doesn't have to do anything, just watch how the incident develops. Regardless of whether the event has a follow-up or not, no matter how it develops, the result will be the same. Even if the police undercover eavesdropped on some key information at his home, even if the police found a witness on the scene to come out to identify it, in the end they only had a confession and could not find the body, and then the police fell into the same predicament as in "Contest 1".
This is the hidden end of the movie.
Of course, the biggest problem with this operation is: Why could the male lead think so far back then and think so well?
In short, "Battle 2" is not a typical suspense film-it buries the suspense too deep, and most viewers may not find the problem.
