In 2017, the suspenseful masterpiece in Italy was airborne in April. First of all, I will briefly talk about the actors. The actor's blessing is indeed online, and the subtle expressions are worth scrutinizing. The slow movement of Jean Reno's first act out of bed not only made me lament that the killer was also getting older as the years went by.
Let's talk about the plot. The film uses interlude to draw the story from the dialogue between the detective and the psychiatrist. The film set lasts for 2 hours. The first half of the film has a slower pace. It narrates the disappearance of the girl and the detective's method of solving the case. At the end, there is little space to solve the mystery. The mystery is revealed suddenly and reversed at the end of the film. Although it's an open ending, it's so clear to me. What made me ponder the most was the practice of the detectives and the lawyers of the media. The detective is different from the police in our traditional perception. In his eyes, the truth is not that important, and he is not investigating cases for justice. The same is true for the other two, no one really cares where the missing girl is, everyone is doing it for their own interests. I think this phenomenon described by the director is also a kind of "fog" in society. People lose the most important things in the fog.
Overall evaluation, the plot is slow and slow, and the reversal is not high enough. It is a pity to match such a cast.
