I think making a wish is the easiest way for most people to have a wish and want it to come true. And when it comes to "making a wish", in literature, folklore and real life, people often do it by throwing gold coins into wells, blowing dandelion seeds, blowing candles on birthday cakes, and whispering to heaven. These wishes are usually done for good things, and if the wish comes true, it usually means good things happen. But with the common wish-making habit comes the well-known warning to be careful what you wish for. Sometimes, a wish may cause unforeseen problems, and for all this, is the hopeful really intentional? Although this film has a misreading of Chinese culture, it is one of its biggest flaws. But I have to say that the director has also put a lot of effort into this film. For example, when my father was picking up garbage at the beginning, there was a ghost sculpture on the door next to him. One of the pavilions in his hand was facing up, the other was upside down, and the ghost was returned to the back. There is a close-up of the sculpture, which actually hints at the two sides of things:
Another example is the heroine painting at home after receiving the gift. The painting is a double-faced girl, and the implication is obvious.
In addition, the way the supporting characters die in the film is also very similar to "Death is Coming". Filling the bathtub with water is quite like "Death is Coming 1"! The neighbor's aunt had her hair twisted and her scalp torn from the drain pipe of the washbasin, which was a bit like a tribute to "Death is Coming 2"; the Korean boy's sister was even more direct, and was plunged into the decorations in an instant. On the sharp corners, it also looks like the section in "Death Is Coming 3" where the flagpole was stabbed in the stomach! There are also girlfriends who fell from the elevator of a high-rise building without warning; Dad was sawed directly by a friend's chainsaw, and finally the heroine was accidentally killed by a car... It's not too similar! Of course, there are several flaws in the plot design of this film, which is what Aineijun thinks is the most cliché: when the Korean boy's sister discovers the secret and later dies because of it, the Korean boy comes forward to dissuade the heroine, and at the same time The two girlfriends also discouraged the heroine, and the heroine also knew the horror of the magic box, and even knew the heavy price of the former user, she still chose to continue to make a wish, this is too fake, does it have to be infinitely magnified Greedy? Aineijun thinks that this place can directly become the heroine's awakening, and makes a wish to restore everything to its original state, but it is a pity that the magic box will not let her go, and all the accumulated negative energy will eventually be borne by the heroine alone; such a change will definitely Make the style of the film look higher, what do you guys think?
At the end of the film, the Korean boy did not bury the magic box, but picked it up with a weird smile. Here, Ai Nei-kun feels that since the future has changed, the boy at this time is obviously not the one who knew everything before. If you look at it calmly After looking at the magic box, maybe the ending can be turned into an open ending. With such a modification, I believe that the score must be higher!
