Such a good detective drama, but few people know the goods

I watched "Mr. Bean" again and found that there are only a dozen episodes in total. When I was a child, I felt that there were many episodes on TV. Some of them are not funny at all (or maybe they were not funny at the time), but Some are still amazing. In any case, the Maigret Detective series was seen in the telecom IPTV box. When I first saw the poster, I wondered if Mr. Bean still had serious works. After all, many media used many titles when mentioning him. He is a master of comedy, not a master of acting, even if his most well-known work in China is "Mr. Bean", there are also a few extravagant movies of unflattering quality.

Unexpectedly, Maigret in the film does not make people feel acting, just like Mr. Porter, it is not fixed by the famous film. The quality of the film is also quite high. The plot based on the novel is guaranteed. Although the rhythm of the film is slow, it does look as comfortable as others have said. The most commendable is the OP. Yes, it is the same even if you are right. If you are not interested, you have to read the OP and then delete it. The scenery and costumes are very careful, that is, it looks a little modern. In other words, there is someone standing in front of you wearing ancient costumes. The hairstyle is also ancient, but I don’t think it’s an ancient person, as if something is missing.

The entertainment aspect is not so exciting, and this is one of the important factors that attract popularity. As the opening chapter, "Maigret's Trap" is flat and straightforward, with almost no climax. The next few films also have similar problems. Maigret himself is deeply deeply involved. The thinking state and the tone of speech did not change much. Compared with the hopping Holmes, he was a bit less charming in personality. What’s worse is that there are no action scenes in the four episodes, which means that the whole movie is supported by reasoning and dialogue. The tone of the movie is also quite serious. For students who don’t like detective movies, they may want to sleep.

There are very few good detective films. From the global box office of "Murder on the Orient Express", this does not seem to be a niche theme, let alone the super popular "Detective Sherlock" which is also a British drama. This retro detective drama has no handsome male and beautiful protagonists, not funny, and no gorgeous fights. The protagonist Maigret does not seem to be very capable. He also needs to rely on the advice of various experts to combine for reasoning. It is more like an ability. It's just a strong detective. But compared to Sherlock, I prefer Detective Maigret because it puts all the focus on plot presentation and reasoning, and finally produces exquisite works. Isn’t this approach attractive? ? Push the snacks aside, turn off the lights, turn off the TV, turn off all QQ and so on, put on headphones, watch in full-screen mode, grab the clues in the film, and follow Maigret to slowly reason out the truth of the case, enjoyable

Of course, it may not actually be so enjoyable. This is why I didn't score 5 points. The first episode used the radical method that appeared many times in other criminal investigation dramas, and lacked some new ideas. The plots of the second and third episodes are more complicated, the reasoning is more fulfilling, and the quality is the best. The disadvantage is that some evidences are thrown out too early, and a small part of the psychological analysis is relatively far-fetched. The fourth episode is too complicated, and it has become a state of dazed expression at the end with "Well, it turned out to be like this". But overall the quality is still very good, the film rhythm is very well controlled, even if the entertainment is lacking, it is not boring, unless you are not interested in movies of this kind, but the OP still wants to watch Didi

Overall score: 4.2 (four parts are evaluated together, the first and fourth parts are deducted more points)

Entertainment Index: 3.0&4.0 (the rhythm is very good, but lacks commercial elements, so those who are not interested in detective subjects will have lower entertainment, and those who like detective movies are more enjoyable to watch)
