There is a reason why this movie has been sleeping on my hard drive for three months. Originally, as a mystery novel, fans of suspense movies are bound to watch this kind of movie quickly, but someone told me that this movie is anticlimactic and has no meaning. Of course, I'm not a person who doesn't follow suit and has no opinion (ask yourself, am I really?), but the person who told me this is not a generalist, and the vision is convincing, so I lost my appetite, and the film has been blocked for a long time. Shelved.
There is also a very helpless reason to watch this movie now, which is to delete the movie and free up hard disk space for copying and downloading more movies. Since I copied the DVD disc to the virtual disc, the movie occupies more than 4G of space, which is intolerable, so the movie that I once wanted to watch and then fast now wants to be removed and then fast, so I Decided to watch this movie.
Now that the nonsense is over, let's talk about the movie. This is really an anticlimactic movie, and I felt sleepy after seeing it. For example, watching this movie feels like reading a Wesleyan novel. At the beginning, it was suspenseful and suspenseful, and then there were climaxes, and there were crises everywhere. In the end, I found that the plane was too big, and it was beyond human capabilities, so I attributed it to the aliens, okay, aliens. Solve all problems. This movie is pretty much the way it is. Since I heard people say that this film was adapted from Christie's "Ten Little Indians", I had the idea of this is a detective movie (disclaimer, I have not seen "Ten Little Indians"). The beginning of the film really follows the path of a detective novel. In a month of darkness and rain, ten unrelated people gathered in a small hotel isolated from the outside world through a series of coincidences and lost everything with the outside world. connect. In this way, the time, place and characters are all there, and the framework of a classic detective film is completed. And the protagonist played by John Cusack, who we later learned was once a cop, a detective role arose. In the hotel, everyone seems to have their own secrets, and they are wary of each other. Later, the suspect brought by the "police" escaped, and it seems that the murderer has also emerged. Of course, those who are familiar with the number of roads know that this is a blindfold and should not be ignored. Then start dying, one by one. Then I found a clue that there was a room number plate beside each deceased person, and the murderer killed in an order. Seeing this, I was reminded of Christie's novel "ABC Murder", and I began to think, is the murderer a serial killer? Or use serial killings to cover up a specific murder target? At this point, the typical detective vibe emanating from the entire film excites me. But the next development took a sharp turn for the worse. First, there are some accidental deaths that still fit the previous order of killings. Then, all the bodies disappeared. Then I found out that all of them were born on May 10. These phenomena are unreasonable and beyond human ability. If this is arranged by the murderer, then this murderer is undoubtedly the most powerful murderer in history. This guy must have an ambiguous relationship with God.
Just as I was thinking hard, another clue gave the answer. The film begins with a group of judges, police officers, doctors, and lawyers waiting for a dying criminal to assess whether he is schizophrenic. At first I took it for granted that they were waiting for someone stranded in the inn. But by the end of the film, the culprit appears, a new face, a fat, hideous white man, a balloon guy. Then with the explanation of the film and the explanation of the psychiatrist, the truth came out. This big white fat man suffers from severe split personality, and his personality is split into ten people. According to the doctor, he is carrying out a major cleansing of his personality. He wants to eliminate those personalities with negative factors and make himself a righteous and kind person. After a long time, the whole story happened in the head of the big white fat man, and the nasty little fat kid who performed the cleaning task (declaration, I am not discriminating against obese people.). It's clear here that since all the stories happened in my mind, nothing is impossible, let alone a child, the murderer is just a mouse. The film offers an unexpected ending that makes the whole story pointless.
Mystery movies are popular these days with an O'Henry-esque ending, but one thing is that you have to give the audience the pre-submission. For example, "The Sixth Sense" and "Frightening Island", the film tells you that this is a ghost movie, and then he plays a mind game with you, and at the end he plays you, and you are convinced. And this film is a bit like selling dog meat. At first you thought it was a reasoning movie, and you began to decide the case with great interest. Then you find that you can't break the case, and you start to wait for the truth, for the clever design of the case to surprise you. In the end, the movie tells you, don't think about it, this movie is inseparable from detective reasoning, we are playing with split personality. It's boring, kind of like finding your own pride in you and me. Although it can’t be said that the film has no hints, such as the appearance of the psychiatrist who specializes in split personality, it shows that the film and split personality are inseparable, but such hints have no value, you can say it clearly.
Of course, I haven't watched this kind of movie that sells dog meat before, such as "Gosford Manor", such as "You Country Station". But those movies are very advanced, sheep's head is not a selling point, and dog meat is intriguing. And this film is more regrettable. In fact, it is not as good as Wesley. Wesley will tell you clearly that my novel has something to do with aliens.
When it comes to split personality, I think of Xian Shui in "Youyou White Book", a guy with seven personalities. The funniest thing is that he suddenly became polite after beating Yusuke Pufan, and said softly, "It's the first time we meet, my name is Shinobi."
