madman, madman again

Movies adapted from Stephen King's novels that I remember are: "The Shining" translated as "The Shining", "The Shawshank Redemption" translated as "The Shawshank Redemption", "Dreamcatcher" translated as "Dream", "The Green" Mile" was translated as "Miracle in the Green Mile", and "The Forgotten" was translated as "Supernatural Puzzle". I felt that Stephen King was quite capable of eccentricity until I saw this "Secret Window".

I remember when I watched "The Green Mile", I thought it must be a murder by reasoning. How can there be superpowers under the sky? When I watched "The Forgotten", I thought that the film and the international human traffickers must be confused. Who knows, who knows, Stephen will jump out and shout loudly: "I'm so weird, what's going on?!" Who can deal with him, The family is King. But I have to admire how such a story can be told.

I tried to read one of his novels in Chinese translation 5 years ago. At that time, I didn't encounter the rumored "ghost spirit in broad daylight" after reading 30 pages, but I was in an emergency, so I ran aground. , never picked up again. The name has long been forgotten, but I still remember the "grimace appearing in the whirlpool" written by him.

Brother King really smashed his own brand this time. I was attracted to watch "Secret Window" by the film, and I always looked for the principle of "it is impossible to have no superpowers and no aliens", and I just waited to see what the aliens looked like and how far the telepathy radius went. ten kilometers. After watching it for ten minutes, I was scared, don't, don't, don't play this trick. But he doesn't listen. It's a shame he still has the face to say "The best of a fiction is the ending"! If I were a monkey, I should spit him.

Personality split, from "Fight Club" to "High Tension", from "Mulholland Dr." to "The Machinist", from "Identity" to "A Beautiful Mind", haven't you played enough? The protagonist's personal wrestling finally explained everything, all the puzzles and all the doubts were scams, and the director thought it was smart. As the saying goes, the first man who compares a woman to a rose is a genius, and the second and subsequent ones are idiots. The saying is of course wrong, 100%. Men only have so many words, and, the point is, it doesn't matter if they don't speak to the same woman. However, we, as the same audience, have been deceived countless times, do you still have the heart to start? Even if the use of split personality in horror films and mystery films is not an intellectual property, at least it should be given at least some respect. Any protagonist can be crazy. Could it be that the mad cow disease has reached the cross-infection of humans and animals in the virtual world of the film and it is out of control. ?

I can't wait to order my cells to stop dividing for ten minutes, and mourning for the protagonists who have lost their minds.

    Although I like Depp, there really isn't much to say about this movie. It's very ordinary and bland, whether it's the storyline or the way the film is presented, it's extremely ordinary. Guessing the ending didn't take me much time. However, the pictures of Depp revealing his real personality and hiding behind the door with a hat and raising a shovel to prepare to kill are still very handsome, so I took a special screenshot.

    The plot was seen through a little early, and it was a little rushed later, or the foreshadowing was a little obvious. It could have been a more complicated story.
