A ghost story without a digger is not a good love triangle

When I was watching it, I was thinking if I was a fan of the brain, I wouldn't come to suffer this! The marriage of the old nobles and the new chaebols, a plot setting that has been widely used from "The Great Spirit Covering the Mountains and Rivers" to "Downton Abbey" a few decades ago, has been used again. In fact, Cliché, some bridges imitating "Beauty's Plan" is also too much. obvious. Shakespeare's temperament is very in line with the identity of the declining British nobles. The feeling of being forced to break with Mia by Mia's father is too Shakespeare. However, the setting of Mia as Mary Shelley and Shiverson as Frankenstein revealed the burden too early, and there was no expectation at all.

When watching the movie, I was confused about what the main contradiction was. After the rich girl went to the end of the world for love, she found out that she was involved in a love triangle between sister and brother. What was even more speechless was that after a lot of trouble, it turned out to be just a bloody case caused by an excavator. Scientific inventions don't hesitate to cheat money and kill people.

Model worker's acting skills are amazing, plus the character itself is powerful and gloomy, and it is true that the contradictions are more concentrated and inwardly driven. It seems that the scene of Shiverson and Mia started a little inexplicably, and there was a lack of development later, no tension and hasty end. Especially the ending part after the character of Dou Sen hangs up, it's a complete collapse. The director seemed to know that everyone was looking at Dousen's face, so the last knife was directly inserted into his face. The two female protagonists who can't use knives at all end up fighting with knives, knives versus kitchen knives, and upgraded to kitchen knives versus shovel. I basically watched it with a smile, especially when I hit the shovel at the end, I gave up the gloomy atmosphere I had accumulated before, and completely turned a horror film into a comedy.

    It's really suitable for Christmas viewing, it's actually a heritage movie...

    My left eye saw the ghost version of Rebecca resurrected by the Baskerville Hound. Tuo Yi likes this kind of extremely typified story with strong art effects and no reason to pervert villains. This piece has a rhythm with light and color. The details of Conan, Shelley and Wuthering Heights are more beautiful than the costumes. Dou Sen is suitable for the role so that people can't look directly at it. Jessica still plays too well, and is too neurotic to be "internally driven." Mia was a bit wasteful.

Crimson Peak quotes

  • [last lines]

    Edith Cushing: [narrating] Ghosts are real. This much, I know.

    Man: [in the distance] Lady Sharpe! Lady Sharpe!

    Edith Cushing: There are things that tie them to a place, very much like they do us. Some remain tethered to a patch of land. A time and date. The spilling of blood. A terrible crime. But there are others. Others that hold onto an emotion. A drive. Loss. Revenge. Or love. Those, they never go away.

  • Edith Cushing: I heard you the first time.
