Don't insult film noir

Don’t insult the pig if you celebrate the New Year. Don't insult film noir.

I really can't see the director's "black humor" efforts in the performance of the movie's ending, nor can I see the "sarcasm" in the plot setting that leaks like a flour sieve. Is it difficult to admit that this is a youth HE drama? At least this positioning can retain some basic logic for the film.

It's hard to imagine that this is the director of "Female Spy", but who hasn't been offline yet.

I didn't like heroines. Later, I didn't like heroines. As a youth film with pros and cons dualism, black is black, black and white, the director and screenwriter actually made me dislike the heroine. This is the biggest failure. Then I hopelessly fell in love with S because of her so powerful charm that she couldn't hide it. This is simply a torture to my audience in this film. The two heroines are both excellent actors. This is a movie produced by Lionsgate. However, the key link (starting after S's death) in this film is how mentally retarded it came. It is completely aimed at nancy drew's style idol drama. Please, you can't be a nancy drew as a heroine, you really are nancy drew? What is the point of making a movie?

Many people compare this show with Gone girl. Of course it is incomparable. However, both directors actually have the problem of smoking half of the filming, let alone fat. David Fincher portrays an amazing sparkling woman and declares that she is crazy, while Paul Figg arranges for a man to run over her in a car and declares that she is a fool.

    It's a bit interesting when it's suspenseful, and the rest are just average. Anna Kendall's lines are really slippery, Blake is really beautiful~~, the queen's domineering fan is really deadly, and the IQ of the two heroines is really cheap, a low-minded man Lord~·

    It's so wonderful, Anna's belly black and white sweet and queen b's conceited female fugitive complement each other, and finally pay tribute to mean girl. I want to see the adult version of the original cast, incest + cheating + lace + uniform, so fucking hot!!
