a pen can microwave people, a ticket can move people to New Mexico instantly no matter where they are from, and a ticket can make Objects turn scissors, a pair of keys that can open any door to a room that didn't exist in 1960. All the "objects" break your impression of his most primitive use, the button is not just a button, the clock is not just a clock, all the things break the original rules, the origin of everything comes from a "Sunshine Hotel" in New Mexico ". These unknown objects are hidden in all corners of the world. They attract each other and seek each other, just to return to the mysterious "Room No. 10". No one knows where these objects came from, only that he appeared in this world in 1960. Some people think it's a gift from God, some people think it's a power in outer space, but no one can understand it. Open this mystery.
I saw this album in a magazine introduction a while ago, and I rented the film to watch it last time I went back to Taiwan to pass the time. The original title of the film was "The Lost Room", which was translated as "Supernatural Room 10" in Taiwan, which made the film look at the cover and thought it was a thriller or a horror film, but it may be because of the short film ( The series consists of three episodes with a length of 270 minutes), so the film quickly gets to the point. The story tells that the hero Joe Miller (played by Peter Krause) is a police detective who finds a key with special abilities in a murder case, but is also involved in a conflict between a mysterious organization and a secret order. fighting. In the battle for the keys, his daughter Anna (played by Ellen Fanny, his sister is a well-known child star Dakota Fanny) disappears unexpectedly in the mysterious tenth room. So he was charged with murder. So in order to find his daughter, avenge his partner, and wash away his grievances, the protagonist is determined to solve the mystery of the key that has been buried for decades.
The album was fully allocated in the United States in 2006, while Taiwan was released in Star Movie this year, and the DVD was released by Shenglong, which specializes in releasing Japanese and Korean films. Although the series is not a new release, the plot is not old-fashioned. The structure of the story can be big or small. There are about 100 special objects revealed in the film, but only a few 20 appear in the album. In addition, the story is set to start in 1960. In fact, if you want to make it big, you can do it. A long film. But I don't know if the screenwriter's skills are insufficient, or because of cost considerations, the whole film is only 270 minutes long. Because of the length of the film, the beginning of the album is quickly cut to the topic. The album is divided into four groups, the "religious group": a religious group that regards "objects" as gifts from God. "Legion": The organization of the anti-religion group, the purpose of his organization is not explained in too much detail in the film. "Collector" Carl: The "object" collector who escaped from the legion, the pawnshop owner in the name is actually the boss of the underworld. The last one was the earliest object collection group, but it was destroyed by an incident. In addition to the four groups, there are many "objects" scattered in every corner of the world, which are kept and used by various self-employed individuals, and "objects" also have their principles and rules in their use and operation. On these premises and the wrestling of the power groups, the protagonist not only has to deal with the struggle between the groups, but also dodge the pursuit of many enemies and the pursuit of the police. Perhaps because of such a multi-dimensional relationship, the whole series is very compact and exciting from the beginning, and it is easy to be addicted to watching it, making people want to watch one episode after another.
Although as mentioned above, the fast pace and compactness of the movie make it easy to get started, but because of this rhythm, the second half of the album looks a bit abrupt and sloppy. In the third episode of the album, the most crucial "object" of the album debuted. When the "object" appeared, it gave me a lot of shock when I was watching the album, and it also pulled the tension of the album to its climax. But it ended hastily in the most exciting place, and the latter part makes people feel a little too hasty, which is a pity for this album. Although there are some reservations at the end, after seeing the ending of the series, I don’t think there has been much development. Of course, Hollywood screenwriters can still make up something, but I think the taste should not be as good as Brilliant this season. But in any case, this film has very good reviews, with an 8.4 rating on IMDB, which is considered a very high score. Overall, this film is a high-quality film, and it is a film worth watching.
