The strange rhythm at the beginning of the movie made me look forward to it. The dim environment, the seemingly friendly but strange neighbors, and the noise in the middle of the night made me think it was a horror movie like "Master Key". The beginning did fall into the routine of traditional horror movies, which made people have a kind of old-fashioned and vulgar rush. But after the death of the heroine cat, the story slowly becomes interesting. As the story develops, you will find that the seemingly clichéd routines in the first half are actually paving the way for the later narrative. And from the audience’s point of view, this director is very appetizing, because when the neighbor’s original face is exposed, the audience is brought into the perspective of the heroine, and at this moment, she must have a problem with her: who are these people? Why would you do this? Why is it me? Wait for a series of questions, but he will not directly tell you the answers to the questions, including the mystery of the house where the hostess lives, and why the sound is made in the middle of the night. The answers to the questions will be revealed at the appropriate time, so that the audience will think about the questions while watching it with interest. In this way, regardless of the intention of the movie, it is destined to not be boring.
In addition, it can be seen that the director and screenwriter is a bit level. Almost everyone who has watched the film can see that he wants to insinuate what is happening in life through such a fictitious thing, and stands in different positions. Audiences from different angles will have their own interpretations, so that the film has some speculative nature, and it is indeed different from the ghosts of ordinary horror movies. In addition, the heroine's acting skills are good, and she can clearly see the traces of swaying and struggling in her eyes several times, and her inner contradiction has been played very well.
But unfortunately, I don’t know if the director’s level is limited or limited by the length of the movie. The second half of the process is too fast. It’s as fast as a cook who puts the fish in the pot before getting it out. The heat is poor. . This movie also gave me a bad impression, that is, all the knives are lifted up and then slowly put down, anticlimactic, I have never watched it. And the bug is too obvious. In addition to the female lead, the whole story also focuses on the old lady and the one-eyed man, and one of the one-eyed men is a model of rebellious spirit. The old lady may not want to resist but is unable to resist, so other As for people, there must be people who want to resist but dare not or are just one fuse in the conflict like the heroine, but when the heroine runs away, the others except the one-eyed man are standing with women. Opposite of the Lord, why is it such a coincidence that none of these people stand up? In fact, I feel that this movie would be better if the script was changed to a U.S. drama, so that it could explain from the beginning how other people experienced contradictions and relentlessly agree with the so-called community theory, and the whole plot would be fuller and more convincing. Otherwise, the current feeling is that the movie has content and suspense, but its actual logic is floating and untenable. However, this movie can't be regarded as a bad one, but the logic is a little bit worse. It is very attractive to watch it smoothly from beginning to end.
