N Duoyoulin on FB recommended a quiet place to me, so today I went to Dolby Cinema to watch it. In addition to the better chairs in Dolby Cinema, you can stand up and watch while lying down. The most powerful thing is that the sound in the movie will produce a vibration effect on the chair, which is really suitable for watching this movie.
However, after reading it, I still feel very disappointed.
The plot of the movie itself is quite good. It is a simple story of a family of four making a living in the American countryside where monsters are rampant. The setting of the monster is also very novel, can only rely on sound positioning, and will be attracted by the sound. There are many settings in the story to avoid everyday sounds, such as sand on the road, “footprints” painted on the floor to avoid crunching sounds, everyone uses sign language to communicate, and cooking can only be done by grilling (frying (Speak out), only use your hands and wood/leaf to make utensils for eating (knife and fork will sound when they hit the plate), and the crib is soundproof. . . These are very innovative and brilliant designs. The first half of the movie is still very refreshing.
Especially the first bear kid was actually eaten by monsters! It's really pleasant to break the movie convention of "children and dogs will never die".
Indeed, this is how I feel when I see my children being killed by monsters: so happy!
There are countless bear children who are clever and ruin their parents in the movie, but every time they are dead or injured. I was immediately full of expectations for this movie.
pity. . . The movie soon returned to the routine of "Bear Children Destroy Parents".
Emily and his husband acting as a couple on the screen are still very interesting. This kind of characterless role can be said to have no challenge to their acting skills and can be easily dealt with. It is the eldest daughter who destroys parents here.
First of all, the eldest daughter is too ugly. I don't generally evaluate the looks of actors, as long as they act well. However, Emily is a beautiful woman and her husband is a handsome boy. How could the two of them give birth to such a daughter? Immediately, is there a sense of sight of Korean cosmetic surgery ads! No matter how you look at it, it's all kinds of violations. Did you adopt it? This little squinted eyes, this big pie face, is too far away from your screen parents! Of course, it is not required to say that children must look like screen parents, but this can't be so much worse!
Your eldest daughter is ugly, it doesn't matter, I think you can barely choose to blind when you get used to it. But you said that you are also a big girl. Your mother has a big belly, and the due date is only 2 weeks away. You actually asked your mother to climb up and down with two heavy bags of wet clothes to cool the clothes? You're all right, and you're full and ran out and wandered around in a rage. If you help your mother at home and do housework, don’t put on a foul face all day long and feel that people all over the world owe you. In fact, the latter part of the whole story can be avoided. .
Why is the eldest daughter angry? Because her father doesn't take her out to play. Um. . . Don't you know that you are deaf? I say? You make a sound yourself and you can't hear it yourself. Going out can only cause trouble for others, don't you know? Are you not self-aware? Of course, I also think her father should tell her clearly, "It's for your own good not to take you out. In case you make a noise, we are both dead." However, the eldest daughter seems to be at least the age of junior high school, should she understand it in her heart? As for you to run away because of this?
Of course, in the end, the father was very clichéd and sacrificed himself for the bear child. Before he died, he was clichéd and said to his daughter, "I have always loved you." . . The daughter looked at her father dead in a very cliché manner, with a contented smile on her face. . . I rub! Do you really want people to feel comfortable in their hearts? You have to have a limit in Secondary Two too!
To be honest, some parts of this story are well designed, but I think there are many loopholes in the worldview setting.
For example, when Dad took his son to the waterfall, he said that if there are relatively loud environmental sounds (water sounds) around, monsters will not be attracted by relatively small human sounds. That. . . Why doesn't this family move to live next to the waterfall? Because it is impossible to build a house next to the waterfall? These two people still seem to be very capable. To transform the barn into a living area and abandon the original house, this also requires a certain amount of renovation works. If two people can complete such a large project quietly, they can’t. Create a small living area next to the waterfall? Well, there is no electricity and no water supply next to the waterfall. Is it possible to make some natural sounds next to the barn to cover up human sounds?
For another example, they are obviously self-sufficient in their own farming, and there are large cornfields in the movie. Most of the movie took place more than 400 days after the monster appeared. It was obviously a year later. This piece of corn was planted after the monster appeared. Are they silent when they are farming? And that big cornfield! Can't use farming machinery, rely on the parents-in-law?
In fact, I think the biggest problem is that the eldest daughter finds that the sound of a special frequency will affect the monster. If a hearing aid modified by a farmer can produce such an effect, I do not believe that the US military has not discovered it? How can it be! Are you kidding? Do the American military and the American people eat shit? In fact, it's very simple and clear. The creatures who locate by sound can naturally think of whether they can be controlled or resisted by sound? We are not saying that we have never seen bats or invented radar sonar.
In the end, I want to say that the nail has been standing there from beginning to end. . . I'm really brooding. The monster ran up and down several times, even if it is probabilistic, he should have stepped on it! What happens after you step on it? Did you bend the nail?
In short, this film just saw all kinds of violations and all kinds of awkward problems. The eldest daughter was so ugly, and she killed her father in vain in the second stage. In the end, she became a little hero of Daguai!
Just tweeted that Stephen King pushed this movie. . . Ever since Stephen King said he is an HP fan, I have strongly doubted his taste (in fact, I have never thought his horror novels are too scary...)
