Neon Demon

With the delicate and symmetrical violent aesthetics under the flickering of neon lights, the modern movies of the 21st century are not necessarily gimmicks that do not resonate. The purpose of the thin plot is only to introduce the theme of crazy pursuit of perfection and lack of humanity under each frame of colorful pictures. The mainstream uses strong visual impact and color collision to touch emotions. Just the delicate picture and the weird style already belong to my type.

I think the reason for the low rating: I can't connect the relationship between the plots of the characters, the theme is hazy, I can't understand the film, I feel a lot of messy plots, I feel that the second half is the highlight of the content, abandoned the previous plot, and began to change the protagonist and plot direction. But as a thriller, 6.3 is a good score.

The ambiguous object shows that the heroine has become snobbish. The hotel plot can be said to push the heroine to the place of death. The leopard specimen seen at Ruby's house later should be related to the leopard in the former heroine's hotel. It has nothing to do with male desire, and adds lesbian necrophilia and morbid beauty pursuit. From chasing and killing people to cannibalism, the physical discomfort is getting more and more serious. The part of the model eating human flesh and retching out her eyes completely pinched my nerves. After all, the ending is more important than anything else. The soundtrack can be very fond of the "Requiem of a Dream" in the title.

    People who make comments really need to read more books, read newspapers, and socialize with people from all walks of life, all kinds of occupations, and all kinds of countries. Otherwise, you think you can’t see the content of the screen full of people, and you have to blame others for being empty.

    Before there was Mr. Lynch, why a low-profile version of Mulholland Drive was also a puzzling choice. Not to say disgust, just that the lines, costumes, scheduling, characters' faces and their intentions are plain boring and unremarkable. It seems that the director is trying to be funny, but because the frame is too spicy, it makes people yawn. Only the last few minutes are slightly released and a little interesting. Mediocre work.
