This film is based on the true events of 1888, because there are still speculations and the mystery is still not revealed, this film shows a possibility - a murderous, horrific and creepy event, behind the political and religious The relationship is the revenge of the maddened.

The form of the film is very delicate, and the picture processing, background rendering, and storytelling are all very good. The dark, dilapidated and gloomy tones of the 19th century East End of London always make people think of it. It's just that the internal structure is not very old-fashioned: the suspense setting is not very catchy, (such as the suspense about the purpose of setting the murderer), and some abrupt extras (such as the love of Abram and Mary). However, this film is "moving" enough, and, as a director's work at the age of 29, what more can you ask for?


Some small details are quite interesting: the suspense setting deliberately arranges a handsome and ruthless young doctor who is more suspicious than McQueen (this is the director deliberately detouring people); When expressing his own remarks, his eyes were wearing contact lenses, which turned into black, like a demon from hell (the director is really careful, this has all been dealt with); the people involved in the crime are all from the Freemasonry, all of them are With a symbolic ring (just horrified at the scene, we didn't realize they were a gang at the beginning); ...

not to mention J.D's decadent mystery that complements the film. Movies worth recommending.

    Depp's performance is excellent, and many of the pictures in the whole movie are beautiful like oil paintings. But the arrangement of its storyline and the whole rhythm is very general. The killer itself has been a mystery for over 100 years. So it's so attractive.

    As Lu Xun said, the shamelessness of the upper class is more terrifying than the depravity of the lower class. The conspiracy of the upper class will always use small people as scapegoats.
