'The Ultimate Interview': Great Plot, Very Fucking Mystery

To tell a suspenseful story well, not only must the plot be gripping and lead people to go step by step, but more importantly, you must make people realize when the final showdown occurs. There is nothing more than the ups and downs in front of me. I was terrified and suddenly said that this was just a joke. If they saw such a scene, the audience in the movie theater would probably want to stab the screenwriter and director to death.
I had this urge when I watched the final interview.
The entire 90-minute story was told in a serious manner. A group of people came for an interview and were locked in a small room. Everyone said that they would cooperate with each other, but the cooperation failed. Instead, they were suspicious. My blood boiled, because I was so eager to know what was on the back of this coin, but, but, it turned out to be such a shit.
I heard a joke a long time ago, the leader spoke: "I want to say a total of three sentences, including this one, my words are finished." I think the whole movie can be summed up in this joke, and I even doubt the fucking screenwriter. , is to plagiarize the idea of ​​this joke.
So this movie is a joke.
So far, I have watched three movies in which the whole story takes place in a narrow and closed space. The first two are "He's from the Earth" and "Nine Angry Men". He's from the Earth is not even reasoning, it's just a Sci-fi, a group of people sitting in the room listening to a guy who claims to be from 10,000 years ago bullshit, but he bullshit so well that the whole story is like a curious TV show, 90 minutes in his bullshit Appears very short.
"Nine Angry Men" is even better, not only reasoning, but also a thoughtful film. The story is about a jury in a room discussing a case that begins with a boy murdering his biological father. At that time, the evidence was conclusive and there was no argument, but after a step-by-step discussion, the jury came to the conclusion that the boy was innocent. The story is interesting and full of suspense, which is breathtaking. What we admire more is that the story was shot in the 1930s. Now more than 70 years have passed, our ancient country, which claims to have a civilization of thousands of years, does not have a reasonable trial mechanism. Using torture to extract confessions, a judicial system in which Zhao Zuohai humiliated the entire country.
Out of appreciation for these two films, I thought "The Ultimate Interview" should also be good, but I was disappointed.

    The background of the story is a bit messy, the setting is nondescript, and it can't explain why they are so desperate.

    Damn, at the very beginning, I thought what the "problem" was... It's too weak, the remaining suspense is to see how they fight... Is it necessary...
