boring 120 minutes

The heavy metal rock scene at the beginning of the film almost sent me to the sky, and the villain at the end of the film looked at the camera, and when the music was released, it was the same, and it looked very creepy. I have to say that the villain male 1 has successfully played this role to life, which makes people feel terrible when they see it. In the same way, the heroine's performance is also in place. This film uses a lot of camera positioning pictures, and there are few cut mirrors, which makes the actors more focused when performing. Otherwise, a lot of shots will have to be redone, but this also has drawbacks. Impatient audiences will be drowsy watching, even myself, if I don't follow the movie's beginning, I have to finish it. I'm afraid I'll also turn off the movie halfway through. Although there are many admirable places in the film, it is not a good film, and the motive of the murderer has not been clearly explained. Purely playing a "shark game" for its perverted and distorted ideas, the audience will only be confused, and the long shots are too boring. In fact, about 40% of the scenes can be cut to make the film more compact. Many unnecessary scenes can be removed, and there is no need to move them over in order to copy the original work.
