Director: Tate Taylor Starring: Emily Blunt / Luke Evans / Hayley Bennett / Rebecca Ferguson / Justin Selo Alex / Edgar Ramirez / Alison Janney / Lisa Kudrow / Darren Goldstein / Ross Gibby / Laura Prepan

The 112-minute film isn't as streamlined as it could be

It mainly tells us two things:

1. Never anesthetize yourself with alcohol

Because the current bad situation won't get better

2. Don't be gullible to believe that others will never disappoint you

Suspense that came to an abrupt end

Movies guided by the plot must clearly explain the relationship between the characters

A train, a longing relationship between husband and wife, and a derailed marriage in reality are connected

Rachel, Anna, and Meghan

Meghan's sudden disappearance and death make police suspicious

Rachel, who can't make a reasonable explanation for her daily drinking habits and amnesia

So according to the director's idea, we also identified the "murderer" as Rachel who gave up on herself

The result is a reversal of the plot, but it is not enjoyable

With Tom's despicable behavior exposed

Conflict has a sense of abrupt end

Those involved are united again

The so-called suspense of the film

Because Rachel is an alcoholic, she can't remember what she's been through

The video makes a big fuss about it

She takes the train every day just to simply observe the people in the room across the street

The young and beautiful Meghan is one of the observation objects

In Rachel's eyes, they are a very loving and happy couple

Have an enviable married life

And one day she found out that Meghan was cheating on her, which made her very angry

If you think of the pain of a cheating husband not being able to get pregnant

She even had the urge to kill Meghan

And it happens that the memory confusion under the influence of alcohol makes the imagination synthesize the "real scene"

She was really afraid that she accidentally killed Meghan while she was unconscious

Fuzzy memory, bloody body recordings, vaguely felt anger

Even Rachel almost thought she was the murderer

give up oneself catch oneself

just for a moment

In order to get rid of the identity of the murderer, Rachel also made a lot of efforts

Meghan's irritable husband, a psychologist who has close contact with Meghan

These people were assumed by Rachel as scapegoats for this incident.

Too bad these people are not

So we see Rachel make up her mind to try and get back her memories of that night

With tears in her eyes, she tells how she's been let down

and the urgency to remember everything in life right now

So Rachel discovered a shocking lie

Tom has been lying to Rachel over alcohol addiction

Said she did those terrible things but she didn't

Said how disappointing she was but the truth was that he couldn't resist the desire in his heart and chose Anna

As now choosing Megan

These trust-based lies make Rachel self-defeating

But self-love is never about anyone else

no matter what happens

You can't hate yourself because you're disappointed with the world

Rachel under pressure for not being able to conceive

Then her failed marriage to Tom completely destroyed her.

Maybe those who give up themselves are not entitled to help from others, those kind help is connivance to the person involved

Can't forget the anger carried in those two wounds

After understanding everything, Rachel ran to remind Anna kindly.

What a horrible and hypocritical person she is dealing with

Out of fear for herself and for her daughter's safety, Anna had to compromise

So Rachel did what Anna was afraid to do

She killed Tom in self-defense

Anna, who witnessed all this, also vented the anger in her heart.

Add her "response" to the existing wound

At that moment, the screen stopped and the two looked at each other silently.

Together, we mourned for the fact that we met such a scum and experienced such a life.

Farewell to the past life

The one who died is the past self

Sitting again by the train window is the beautiful woman who has regained control of her life

She no longer observes other people's lives

Instead, start writing the trajectory of your own life

But Rebecca Ferguson is really full of soy sauce

Haley Bennett Gives A Beautiful Body

Emily Blunt gave a good acting

The ending is beautiful

    I really bother this kind of film that reverses for the sake of reversal, insulting the audience's IQ. The stars are all added to a few actors, the other parts are kept in place

    Once out of the illusion of love, women are probably invincible. In terms of story structure, the first half of the story is so long and convoluted that it makes the ending seem too weak. If you want me to say, Gone Girl is more awesome.
