he is healthy, successful in his career, and has no special cruel encounters (compared to the ugly face of "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and many of his psychological shadows. A distorted killer); he is easy-going, has a beloved wife and daughter (compared to Hannibal’s domineering and solitary solitary in "The Silent Lambs"); he knows he is committing a crime, and he feels uneasy about it. Don’t find some high-sounding excuses (compared to the criminal who killed people in the name of morality in "The Seven Deadly Sins"); he is thoughtful and self-controlling, and will not appear in destructive hunting scenes due to mistakes or playing with prey. Even if he is very intoxicated after the murder, he will decisively destroy all evidence and will never leave some souvenirs... It
can be said that Mr. Brooks is almost perfect, and the murder is interpreted as an elegant performance art by him, and even makes people There is a feeling of enjoyment, and I really responded to the sentence: Appreciating the ultimate beauty requires courage.
However, the Hundred Secrets had a sparseness. Mr. Brooks never expected that his beloved daughter would inherit his bloodthirsty nature. His confidential work has been done without leaking. It is absolutely impossible for his daughter to cause a distortion of the mind through ear and eye contact. The only explanation is that DNA has already determined everything, just like a terminal illness of congenital heredity. What's more disturbing is that his daughter is not as smart and cautious as he is, and the police come to investigate at home. In order to protect his beloved daughter, Mr. Brooks violated his principles for the first time and made a case. However, even if he escaped the police, escaped condemnation, and successfully defended his daughter, he still could not escape the fear of being killed by his biological daughter. This Mr. Perfect finally has a nightmare
that he can't get rid of... I have to say that this narrative method from the perspective of the murderer's daily life is very interesting, but it also feels very "dangerous"! Because when I watched the movie, I felt that I was completely on Brooks' side, intoxicated in his perfect crime, and despised the stupid people who messed up him. This is really dangerous! !
Recently, I also noticed that another similar movie, "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon" (Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon), also tells the story from the perspective of a murderer, and uses a news documentary filming method. One point, it feels a bit interesting, but I still hate the rough DV documentary style.
