This drama is satirizing the incompetence of men

The original name of the family is obviously VacaNCy, which has nothing to do with pinhole cameras, but the translator just translated it into a pinhole hotel just for a gimmick, which is really bad intentions. This pinhole only comes in handy in the middle part of the film, and the rest of the time it doesn't appear at all.

The rhythm of the film is very good, and it will not make people eager to fast-forward. I think the idea of ​​video murder is still there, but it is a little shallow, and it would be better to go deeper, for example, you can find more escape clues in the video.

The heroine, Little King Kong, looked weak at first, and killed three in the last few seconds. And the men played supporting roles in this play, and they were incompetent one by one.

1. The male protagonist didn't do anything serious, he just ran away with his woman, and was hit by a car after making a phone call. He didn't even need to take the policeman's gun. He arranged his wife on the roof and went out to get the gun confidently. As soon as he went out, he was knocked down with a knife, and finally woke up. my God.

Second, the innkeeper is just a watcher. It looked very evil, and took a DV to shoot some pictures of people who were about to die, and then laughed wickedly. Actually weak + stupid. First of all, when his two companions were killed by Xiao Jin, he had to "break in", and it took a long time to come in. Secondly, the fight with Xiao Jin was "abnormal and brave", and finally he threw the enemy to the side of the gun to kill himself. Thankfully the director didn't let him be the last "evil last minute before he dies", otherwise I would have vomited.

3. The policeman who came to rescue was actually an old man. Are you supposed to be grandpa? Or a temporary worker at the police station? Trembling, just don't come. However, he was very persistent and insisted on checking the room, and then he was killed with a knife. Hey...

Fourth, help. The two murderers who helped were even more clueless. Also killed by BMW. It seems that it will only scare people, and there is nothing else.

Having said so many flaws in the plot design of this film, I still think it is worth watching. Don't lose your appetite because of the collective incompetence of the men.

First of all, the setting of confined spaces is still very appetizing.

Second, how do you feel when you see that the murder scene in the video is exactly the same as the room you were in?

Third, because of the disaster, the lost feelings were regained, and the protagonists played more realistically.

Except for the incompetent men, this film can be watched.
