blood maze

About 7.5 points. Honestly, the better part of the movie is Cohen's transitions, which are just too damn showy, and those scenes that are not obvious but deep in detail (such as blood soaked in cloth), the lighting promotes the atmosphere and feels even scarier than a horror movie, And the dark humor is so lively and interesting, and the idea of ​​stabbing the hand with a knife in the bright scene is really disgusting and funny.

But there are always two flaws in the plot, one is why the killer didn't take the things from the safe after the heroine left. One is that it doesn't make sense for Marty to put toilet slogans in the file bag. Could the killer know the original thickness? Still telling him that I just took a picture? In fact, there is also a doubt here. Did the killer realize that there were fewer photos? Isn't the point of his going back to find a lighter to steal money by the way? I always feel that the meaning of the lighter and the photo is repeated, and there is no need.

Finally, let's talk about "Three Guns". I actually watched this version first. At that time, I thought the plot was very good, and I still don't think it is Zhang Yimou's worst movie (I think "The Great Wall" should win the championship). Now I watch it. After reading the original version, I feel that the localization of "Three Guns" has been done very well, and it has greatly strengthened the black humor, which is just a distinction between advanced and popular. But why do you still think "Three Guns" sucks? Probably because of his acting skills, even Sun Honglei failed, you can see how laissez-faire Director Zhang was about the movie at that time...

    Ray: Thanks.

    Abby: Except when he doesn't say things, they're usually nasty. When you don't, they're usually nice.
