Small scene + fast pace, gorgeous acting blooms

There are indeed bugs in the film. For example, when the laser appears on the male protagonist's chest, he can try to use the phone and the sniper's blind spot on the back to do some implied things.

Others, such as ballistic testing and gunpowder smoke reaction, are all things that will come later. Except for bluffing and piercing others on the phone, they are useless. This can be regarded as a sniper deliberately fooling the male protagonist.

And because the three views of the sniper himself are not correct, it is incorrect to criticize the three views of this movie, because he is only a "criminal" character in the movie.
(The one that can be contrasted here is Charlotte in "Charlotte Trouble". The male protagonist's three views are not right and encouraging the behavior of these three views is really what the movie deserves to be criticized.)

However, even if there is BUG, the scene, rhythm and the male lead's acting skills (plus a criminal's voice) are enough for me to give it a five-point non-negotiation.

It is very difficult to make a person change, so popular online novels basically do not have the mental growth of the protagonist.
Yet the film does just that in 90 minutes, allowing a man with a mouth full of trains to expose his incompetence, cowardice and fear to the world.
What's even more amazing is that the process is very natural. From being suppressed to resistance to frankness and finally to the bravery of breaking the pot.
Investigating its details, you can simply take it out and study it carefully.

Rhythm, development. These two parts are the two biggest problems exposed by domestic films in recent years, and they are also the parts that screenwriters need to focus on improving. Studying this film will undoubtedly benefit some people a lot.
