[Spoiler Warning] This time the prisoner can be guessed to the extent that you can think of it just by watching the trailer

The prisoner this time is so easy to guess that you can think of it just by watching the trailer. Setting up a rookie detective who has nothing to do with the black history of the police station and has a gap in age, I can only think of three functions: use his death to stimulate the protagonist to grow or make choices; he is a descendant of someone who came to avenge; and the protagonist group CP Sell ​​rot. In this series, the probability is the first two.

And if you are an old viewer of this series, you don't need to wait to see his deliberate act of holding the male protagonist's mobile phone or use the law of "the corpse has no face and no detailed description of the killing process", just see him take out family photos and the screenwriter insists If they talk for a long time, they can think of: 1. He is 80% a murderer, his wife and children have been killed by the police, and he is here to take revenge (it's half right); 2. There will be people who will cover up his wife and children are not dead. 3. The protagonist's father is also not clear, because the last person who needs to be saved in a life-saving game must be his own close associate (see 4, 7).

It's just that the cover-up this time is more obvious than the time narration of the last one (the last time was actually 234's self-repetition, and Westworld just used it once), but to be honest, it should not have developed to the ninth episode. What tricks can deceive the audience, the fun of guessing the murderer every time is actually very little. As for logic, it collapsed as early as Hoffman's time, and I think these two have picked up. Far less deep than Jigsaw's "rehabilitated" theory? Forget it, did anyone really accept the scriptwriter's rhetoric from the very beginning?

So as long as there is creative and visually/painful game design in each episode, I'm going to buy it. The laser collar head blooming in the last episode was amazing to me. This time, the glass slag storm and the final human marionette were not bad either. With the variation of the classic theme, they made a great impact on the big screen. And the film's direct change of genre style this time is not a failed attempt.

The claim of destroying the IP is still serious, and there are not many low-cost thrillers that are still seeking innovation and change in the ninth episode.

    Captain Angie Garza: Fuck your cover, Zeke! You are off on your own, as usual, no backup, nothing.

    Det. Zeke Banks: No backup 'cause there's nobody on the force I can fucking trust!
