Imperfect flaws

It’s entirely because of Anthony Hopkins that I’d like to watch it. The film’s screens are very detailed, and the language of the screens is very deep on the surface, but it doesn’t seem to be closely related to the plot, such as the play device in Ted’s house. What do you want to explain? Maybe it's a far-fetched system, which is as smooth as the wife-killing plan he designed. Could the drop of the marble suggest his flaws? But he fixed it anyway, which again didn't seem to fit the ending.
In addition, it must be criticized that the trapping and structure skills are really general, and the slowness of the plot is not necessary to recommend the climax of the story. It feels like a person without a sense of humor is telling a story that is not scary. He must think that slowing down his speech will seem scary, and the plot is the most fundamental factor. The most unacceptable thing is that the hospital gave up the treatment of his wife under Ted’s instructions. The normal logic should be that he will bury his wife. Even if the burial is not done, the prosecutor cannot dissect his wife without his knowledge. His wife would not find the bullet without anatomy. Taking a step back and neglecting such details, then in the European and American legal systems that emphasize procedural fairness, how did you lead the murderer to plead guilty based on the speculation, and how did you appeal on the basis of his testimony? There is no evidence to prove that Ted and the police exchanged pistols. This is the basis of the case. Even if logically inferred and even reasonable motives and conditions for committing the crime, they are all necessary conditions. There is not a sufficient one. No, the principle that the interests of the doubt belong to the defendant, even if Ted is sued again, it is difficult to be convicted.

In the end, the screenwriter designed a huge bug in the personality of Ted. From the first act confidently pointed out the mechanical failure of the aircraft, which made everyone confused, to the calm and calmness of the whole trial process, it can completely show that he is a mental quality. Very high, a chaotic person, even if he miscalculates the final flaw, it will not panic. The embarrassing expression in the last scene of the old drama bone Hopkins is very well portrayed. Is the director and screenwriter a must Judgment first? It's completely contradictory.

If you want to find a bright spot for this show, it's Hopkins' genius acting. His eyes seem to tell you "I'm guilty", but you can't find evidence. Elegant manners, elegant conversation, confident control of everything, calmly making people fearful.
