Demi Moore is indeed old, standing with the young and handsome male protagonist, obviously the eldest sister and the little brother, it feels a little awkward to watch them fall in love.
The characters appearing in the film are a little complicated, but it's not that there are too many people to dazzle the eyes, but the appearance of many people makes people mistakenly think that they are the foreshadowing of the director, and when you watch the movie, you will find out that they are just runaways. Just a passing. The gimmick is greater than the actual content, which means that this so-called suspense thriller does not actually achieve a scary or thrilling effect. The use of a few scary little bridges is also a little old-fashioned. The main line of the story is a bit loose, and there are often unintelligible passages in the development process of the story. The overall structure of the film is not clean enough.
But what is worth affirming is the director's choice of shooting locations. Small islands, lighthouses, cottages by the sea, and small towns are all very pleasing and beautiful scenes, and they are a good place to fall in love. The beautiful scenery is what I personally think is the best part of this film.
In addition, the soundtrack of the film is also excellent, which better sets off the theme.
In fact, Hollywood has no shortage of good directors and actors, and there is no shortage of dollars to burn, but what is most lacking is actually a good book. Without a good script, it is difficult to produce a real quality film no matter how good other conditions are.
