Faces in the Crowd

The plot is a little procrastinated, but the plot setting of face amnesia is quite innovative. Many people may think why they can't distinguish by sound. This can also be said to be a big loophole in the rationality of the plot. The description of the human face in the movie camera has done a lot of work. After Anna was attacked and suffered from facial amnesia, it was difficult for us in front of the screen to distinguish the characters in the movie. things in general.

There is a scene in the movie: Anna is in a class in kindergarten, and there are more than a dozen children with identical faces in the classroom. This is really a very strange scene. However, there is an illogical point here. The mother who came to pick up her daughter found out that her daughter was picked up by her ex-husband. Since Anna has prosop-agnosia face amnesia instead of Amnesia amnesia, it is impossible to lose memory. A scene of things, the logic of the movie can't be so rigorous.

Going back to the main line of the movie, who is the murderer of the serial murder case? It's very simple. I had already guessed it from the performance of the little boy in the middle of the movie, and then the plot was a bit slow, from going to Koel Island, to Anna accepts hypnosis, etc., but the focus of the movie seems to have shifted from the murder case to the symptoms of facial amnesia itself, just like warm water slowly heated by a small fire, waiting for a long time, but losing that kind of boiling surprise .

Milla Jovovich's performance is still in place, either frightened, panicked, or confused. Compared with her action films, there are fewer such "female" films, perhaps because she is accustomed to her sturdy image of holding guns in both hands, quite a bit. Not suitable.
