Look good! !
The film attracted my attention with a very Royal and oil painting style when the popularity was not high in the early stage. Overall, "Hotel Royal" isn't particularly good, but it's a crime movie I've never seen before. The film uses a non-linear narrative structure to flash back the dark history of the characters as the plot develops, making the film extremely informative but logically clear. The narration of the film is very novel. It is not a formal chronological sequence, but looks at that dark night from different people's perspectives. The details of each event are different in each person's eyes. In fact, the director is ingeniously expressing the fact that an event is multi-faceted and the authorities are obsessed with the truth, which is intriguing.
However, the above-mentioned narrative techniques have advantages and disadvantages, and the disadvantages are very obvious, that is, the short flashback will disrupt the rhythm of the film, make the film rhythm fault, or even disappear. It is easy for the audience to have a sense of escape in the climax, it is very playful, and the people watching it are confused. For a cinema movie, it will inevitably encounter the problem of low box office and polarized word of mouth. After all, the whole film is still extremely small for nearly three hours. If I were a producer, I should have invested in Netflix, because "Murder at the Royal Hotel" is very much in line with Netflix's style, not the theater, otherwise the box office will not be so ugly.
Except for some minor problems that Brother Hammer is completely soy sauce, "Murder at the Royal Hotel" is a very flavorful crime film, which belongs to the kind of "unsightly the first time you watch it, but the more you watch it, the better it looks". , It is very simple and luxurious texture of the cinema that "old Martin who doesn't like Marvel" said, I like it very much, 85 points. It is recommended to start with three brushes.
