Brooks shouldn't be considered a split personality film, Marshell can only be regarded as the other side of his heart, it is an opinion. Because the director arranged for the appearance of Marshell from the beginning, this film is not a suspenseful one. If you
target the type of film, I think it's a crime drama.
Brooks has been struggling with himself, and Marshell, as the representative of his horror desires, keeps appearing, allowing Brooks to have a double life. In front of the vast majority of people, he is a successful businessman, father, husband, and is willing to philanthropy so that he was named the Year of the Year. In front of the people he killed, he was an absolute demon. Walk to you silently and shoot without hesitation. The cold face was expressionless and he handled everything calmly and sophisticatedly. I have seen many people commenting on Brooks on the Internet that it is not perverted, but just addicted to the pleasure of killing. I think he is more than that. He is not just shooting. His biggest hobby is to place the corpse after killing and take pictures. After returning to his home, he appreciates the beauty of death brought by him. At the beginning of the film, when he returned to process the photos after killing people, he felt that one of the photos was too beautiful to keep. At this time, Marshell reminded him not to leave any traces, and went upstairs to find his wife. In normal life, the game of killing pleasure is over. The character of Marshell, or to be more precise, is also very interesting. He indulges his desires and also knows how to recover himself after enjoying. He does not always appear to ask Brooks his desires. In many daily life In life, Marshell often appears as a reference opinion. Speaking of this, I want to talk about the nature of Brooks. It is estimated that many people think that rooks in the film represent justice and normality, and Marshell represents evil and indulgence. I don't think this is the case. Marshell only appears as a reference opinion. Many things are done by Brooks subjectively. Many times the opinions raised by Marshell have already appeared in Brooks' mind, so it should not be done. All problems boil down to Marshell, Brooks There is also a problem with his own thinking, but Brooks is in a contradictory state and Marshell's opinion has changed Brooks's thinking balance. When the role of Smith appeared, Brooks' "quiet" life changed. What does the role of Smith represent? I think it represents one of all people, and this person also has the same presumptuous desires like Brooks, but Smith has not yet released it, or exactly how it was released. When Smith discovered Brooks, it was like a lonely child meeting another older child. The requirements of this lonely child were very simple. Single, that is, the older child takes him to play with. As for Brooks and Marshell, they agreed that it was a trouble, but because they didn't know Smith at the time and couldn't deal with all the problems, they had no choice but to agree to Smith's request. After a brief contact, Brooks and Marshell discovered that Smith was actually very simple, but Brooks was not eager to get rid of Smith, but had another plan. He wanted to use Smith to end his conflicting life. Speaking of this, I have to mention the two branches of the film. One is the policewoman who hunted down Brooks. This woman has a fortune of $60 million and is still doing a front-line investigator. She has also made great achievements and has successfully arrested several serial killers. Brooks still liked the policewoman very much. In the process of hunting Brooks, the policewoman is being haunted by divorce lawsuits and revenge from fugitive murderers. The second is Brooks' daughter, who went home with questions. Then the pregnancy was reported first, and then a murder case was involved. Regarding the murder case involving Brooks' daughter, Brooks and Marshell believed that Brooks' daughter inherited his father's desire to kill and judged that his daughter would kill him in the future. But there is no evidence in the film that Brooks's daughter was murdered, even her pregnancy and the loss of the BMW car, as well as the apparent indifference to the murder. I think the judgment of Brooks's daughter's murder was entirely based on Brooks's conjecture, including his attempt to use similar methods to produce an alibi for his daughter, which were all subjective conjectures. This part paved the way for the ending of the film. The topic went back to the ending Brooks chose for himself. Brooks had planned to let Smith kill himself and let the disappearance of the name Brooks end, because this might be the best ending. But the ending of the film turned a corner. Brooks killed Smith and created the illusion that Smith was a serial killer. When did Brooks change his mind? It was not a change of mind that happened on the day. It should be that after he finished writing the will he had wanted to make, the old fox immediately changed his mind selfishly. Although he was ruthless when killing, his affection in front of his family made him irresistible. . He first helped the policewoman get rid of her ex-husband, and solved the problems her ex-husband created for her. Then the design will lead her to the residence of the fugitive murderer and let her solve her own problems by herself. Brooks and Smith met his desire and designed to lead him into the game. The reason why he didn’t find a solution directly I decided on Smith because first he wanted to teach Smith how to make a murderous step, and secondly, he found that the perfect disappearance that would be used on himself is more suitable for Smith. The last Brooks in the film wakes up in the dream of her daughter killing herself. This is also the best ending for Brooks. Usually this kind of murderer is caught or killed. I don’t know if the director and screenwriter think that if Brooks was shot to death by Smith and disappeared into the world, the ending would be too benevolent for him, so the ending of the film is whether Brooks or not. If he kills another person, he will end up living in the contradiction in his heart, the fear and self-blame brought about by his imagination. There will be countless nightmares waiting for him...
Review the video. Some of the lines and scenes in the film are really memorable. In the opening scene, Marshell seduce Brooks again to kill people after two years of silence. This part seems to be in our reality, the ambivalent expression of people being confused by desire and losing self-control. The policewoman pointed out that the discharge of the bodies of the characters in this killing was not as romantic as before, showing that Brooks was struggling to commit the case, including the effect of discovering that the curtains were opened on his mood. When picking up Smith for the first time, Brooks and Marshell hoped that when Smith was hit and killed by a car, the scene where the two laughed, the actors were too engraved. When Brooks went to her daughter’s school to commit crimes, he kept reading the lines on the plane. I am not a believer and I don’t know which part of the Bible came from, but this paragraph shows Brooks’ inner contradiction is also in place. Brooks finally called the policewoman and asked her why she was a police officer. I didn't understand this paragraph, and I couldn't figure out what the content of this movie wanted to show. I saw people on the Internet questioning how the policewoman discovered that the curtains at the crime scene were open. It seems to be explained in the video that the curtains were drawn too tightly, and the policewoman decided when she went to the opposite building to collect evidence. Tracking Smith should be based on feeling. Smith’s suspicion is that when he first met the policewoman, he said he was an amateur photographer. People who like photography usually carefully observe the scene around him, so he has no reason to face the opposite building. nothing to say. Of course, there are many illogical things in the film, such as whether Brooks's nest is in his house? If he is at his house, where is his garage? He has done a lot of cases. If a certain time he comes home after finishing a case and catching up with his wife in the garage, some of his criminal evidence will definitely be exposed. There is also the location where Brooks parked when he went to his daughter’s school to commit crimes. A celebrity car like Brooks was also easy to be noticed. It was because he drove a seemingly old Volvo, which is easier for people to distinguish. How could it be? No one recognizes it? In other words, every time he committed a crime, he drove his car, and no one knew it? The last part of Smith's move was also suspicious. It can be determined that Brooks had assigned the key to the house to pretend to be Smith and hired the moving company instead of Smith who did it himself. If Smith moved by himself and wanted to escape the trouble of the policewoman, he would definitely not leave a list of the moving company. If Brooks did it, how could Smith be completely unaware of it? (It seems that there is no explanation from Smith about moving in the play) Brooks picks it up When Smith was at the time, Smith had just come out of the house, so why didn't he meet at the newly moved place? If Smith met Brooks in the original place to be careful of the policewoman's tracking, wouldn't it be easier for Smith and Brooks to meet at their new home when the policewoman didn't know Smith was moving? If it is to deliberately create the illusion that Smith has not moved, then I don’t think it is necessary, because at this time Brooks has processed all the evidence against him in Smith’s home, and Brooks is bent on guiding the policewoman to the place where the murderer is at large. Wouldn’t it be better to meet there? Movies sometimes do not require too rigorous logic, which is not conducive to artistic expression. Generally speaking, this is a movie worth watching. For friends who can accept dramas, I recommend this good movie about criminal psychology. By the way, if I write here, I don't think that there is no backing music in this film. It is completely voiced in the psychology of the characters. It is another big point. Let's feel it together.
