This can be felt from the soundtrack of the title. The soundtrack similar to the epic tribal war makes people trance is this watching "Braveheart"? Then the protagonist of the story appeared. Kevin Spacey's usual bitter face and excellent character introduction seemed to make people feel that this work had a sharp character description. Then the father and daughter followed Judi Dench back to northern Europe, and the rhythm and atmosphere of the story changed completely. a sample. Reporters, murders, and abnormal phenomena all seem to make people feel like they have come to the world of "Dragon Tattoo Girl", and the careers of several families that happened after that really confirmed this tendency. But the ending miraculously returns to a warm and touching feeling.
I have to wonder: is this original novel really a Pulitzer winner? It is expected to be out of balance before and after the adaptation of the script. If you want to take the "True Love Express" route, then the sense of irony in the title and the supernatural feeling in the middle should be removed, and the cards of Julian Moore and Judi Dench should be played. In fact, the film sets the protagonist in the history In Piecy, the old man whose face in every scene is American Beauty simply cannot carry the weight of the mental reconstruction that the movie tries to show.
Two stars, not recommended
