The Deaths of Ian Stone is a bit brighter than other similar movies whose names I can't even remember.
The film has an eerie atmosphere from the very beginning. Well, in fact, those weird atmospheres, such as rainy nights, swinging swings, and unmanned train crossings, are still a bit cliché.
But from the first time Ian Stone was killed, it was really weird.
Every time he was killed, he immediately woke up from a completely different life. The death in front was like a dream, but also like a parallel universe.
This worldview setting is very interesting. Audiences will be caught trying to find out what his setup really is.
But unfortunately, as the explanation became clearer, the whole story gradually became less interesting.
In a good direction, this story gives a complete explanation. From a bad perspective, this explanation is really mediocre.
Speaking of which, the first half and the second half of this movie, or in other words, the world view setting and the battle story behind it are like two movies that you don't want to do.
This irrelevant setting also brings some problems to the logic of the film. For example, the abilities of this group of monsters are so strong that the world seems to be just an illusion under control, but they actually rely on intimidating people to obtain energy. It's like crossing from "The Matrix" to "Grimm's Fairy Tales" all at once.
In addition, the cinematography of the film is not bad, and the opening sequence of playing ice hockey is very visually striking.
Also, the villain girl is very beautiful.
There is a motto in the movie that seems to be the inspiration for the movie. "Dream as if you'll live forever. Live as if you'll die today." It's interesting to write, more interesting than the movie itself.
