In 130 minutes, if you want to show a story of humiliation and then revenge, it should be the most important thing to allocate in the ratio of succession.
The film took too long to show the monotonous and dull life in prison. Prisons could also have stories, such as "Shawshank's Redemption". This film focuses on repeated shots of Edmond’s daily whipping. Apart from enduring it, he did not resist, nor did he even have an attitude of dissatisfaction. Later, the priest appeared and Edmond was fully trained and trained. Unfortunately, the film completely ignores the changes in a person's spirit, psychology, and temperament brought about by knowledge. Edmond is still an indifferent stone. At this point, you can question, Edmond, who saw a strange priest break into his prison and hide in the corner shivering, where did his future Guoyi and Leng Hou come from? No matter how ups and downs in Edmond's life, how legendary his experience, there should always be something in the same line that belongs to him in human nature. You can think it is asleep, or lurking in a certain corner, waiting to be awakened and inspired, but the movie You can't see it here.
Compared with the gloom in prison, the bright and shiny after release, numerous characters, complex scenes, psychological and intellectual competition, contests, etc., all make the audience feel very excited-Edmond is skilled in design and craftsmanship. What kind of wonderful magic should be in the revenge period. As a result, the movie showed a greater mediocrity-Edmund's process of seeking revenge on the three people was too hasty, almost perfunctory. Apart from a cold expression, the characters had no deep depiction of their hearts; the original ups and downs The plot of the story has also become as plain as water. The hopeful gratitude and enmity in anticipation have become a painless textual explanation.
In fact, if you want a movie to be exciting, you can even use the entire page to show Edmund's revenge after he was released from prison, and the plot in prison can only be interspersed with it.
Perhaps the light of the novel is too dazzling, and the transcendence of the film should have a magnificent production similar to "Lord of the Rings", but what kind of director is needed to take the lead?
I have to look forward to the day when "New Count of Monte Cristo" comes out.
