During the long vacation on October 1, I watched "88 Minutes" in boredom. In general, this is not a pastime movie suitable for passing time. It is more suitable for a person to watch it seriously so that he can understand the plot. It is a movie that is known for its plot, which is more in line with my taste.
The beginning of this film is a bit bloody, a serial perverted killer Moon Dark Kills Eve, and Al Pacino plays an FBI psychoanalyst who sends one perverted killer to prison, and this day is the one he sent to prison. The last day of the killer, and there were no witnesses, no evidence, only the testimony of this psychoanalyst, which convinced the jury and sentenced the killer to death, which caused a lot of criticism, and many people thought that maybe this person It was innocent, and the murder case with similar results appeared again that night, and the most suspected murderer was a psychoanalyst, so a battle between life and death, justice and evil kicked off.
After reading some reviews of "88 Minutes", some netizens pointed out that this film has some unclear logic and some loopholes. I just realized that I'm really not a rational person, and I really didn't scrutinize these plots very carefully. I think this film is worth recommending because the characters in this film are still full of emotions.
The psychoanalyst played by Al Pacino appears to be a successful person on the surface, but is a playboy at night, dealing with many women, but never thought about starting a family and starting a family. I have to praise Al here. Pacino's acting skills, whether it is the eyes or the wrinkles on his face, reveal melancholy and vicissitudes. Sure enough, there is an unforgettable past in his heart. In the car, on the road, and at work, as long as he stops, there is always something. A picture of an eleven or two-year-old girl with long braids and flying a kite on the beach. This is his sister. When he was 28 and his sister was 12, due to his negligence, his sister was avenged by him. The killer killed, and the killer tortured her sister for 88 minutes, which became a pain in his heart forever.
This is the reason why I like this film, there are secrets in our hearts that we don't know. During the day, in the sun, we go to work, work, chat and laugh with colleagues, chat with friends, only in the dead of night, or when When we are alone, these secrets, those happy, painful, unforgettable people or things, unforgettable pictures, are only experienced and understood by ourselves. With the growth of age, who does not have secrets in his heart, who does not have the unbearable years to look back on, there are psychoanalysts in the film, as well as his female assistants, looking around our lives, who has no secrets?
Life is like the weather. There are sunny days, stormy days, more cloudy days, there is always haze, and there is always light, so you can always see some hope in the corner of despair, and always in the light into darkness.
