The plot of the movie follows 5 survival test levels, and the total number of participants decreases. There are: the first level "Tumbler" (123 wooden people), then "Lucky Cat" (shooting), and then "Little Mustard" (guessing). characters), from the fourth level are the original "White Bear and Black Bear" (Truth) and "Russian Doll" (Ghostbusters). In the comics, "multi-person skipping rope" was replaced by "devil mustard", "peeing monster" may have been deleted due to indecent expressions, the mode of "Urashima Taro" was changed to "Russian Doll", and finally "The Nutcracker" ( Universiade) did not appear. In the movie version, the only thing I am most satisfied with is the first level "Tumbler". The rhythm is lightning fast. One person died in a few seconds, and the head burst to death. There are also close-ups from the burst eyes. The highlight is that the traditional blood spatter is changed to red spherical particles, which is not bloody and very touching, but unfortunately it is not used in the following levels. Satake had lunch at this pass, and only Takahata Shun survived. The second stage "Lucky Cat" is a veritable trick to die: being crushed to death, slapped to death, swallowed, hit, smashed, split with claws, etc. It is no longer blood, but a varied death. State, the most abundant way of death. There is a pink plot in the original book, but the biggest scale in the movie version is only: Akimoto's clothes and skirts were scratched, I am so disappointed! In addition, Tiangu Wu's gorgeous debut was also retained, and he pierced the chest of his teammates when he appeared. Survivors: Takahata Shun, Tiangu Wu, Akimoto. The third level "Little Mustard" is a small room game. There are only two methods of death: laser shooting and kowtow suicide. If you count, the killing method of "Devil Mustard" is to choke the neck. With the addition of other rooms, the number of survivors in this pass increased to seven. In the fourth level "White Bear and Black Bear", the rules require everyone (seven people) to answer the referee's question with the truth. If one person is lying, they must find the liar and get rid of the liar. The referee is a liar). Shoko died of injustice in this level, and was punched deeply into the snowdrift by the heavy fist, and the head exposed the snow and overflowed with blood. There are five survivors. The fifth level, "Russian Dolls", on the surface, is a game of ghost hunting, with a lot of trouble in the plot, but in fact, winning or losing will not kill anyone, because the real test is the reward after the end: eating ice cream. The melted sticks show whether they survived or not. Just like the original book, pure luck. What's more surprising about this level is that Qiuyuan lost his luck in the lottery and died by self-destruction. In the end, only Takahata Shun and Tiangu Wu survived, and then Shenxiaolu Shenmaru appeared, and the whole film ended. The subtitles of the movie are slowly rising, and the audience, including me, have been waiting hard, but there is still no preview or easter egg to wait for. (2015.04.05 HK The Grand Cinema)
