A revenge film under the cloak of thriller reasoning
Reagan 2022-03-25 09:01:13
After watching "The Invisible Guest", I came to see another work by Oriol Paul. The ruthless suspense, the suspense that is pressing step by step, is still intriguing. In fact, this is a revenge film in the guise of a detective. Whether the reversal is successful or not, I personally think it depends on three points, one is how well the foreshadowing is buried in the early stage, the second is the strength of the turning point, and the third is the rationality of the reversal. In these three points, although the overall is not as good as "The Invisible Guest", the reversal in the last ten minutes is still very exciting and powerful, and the story is logically pushed to a climax. The terrifying atmosphere created before is also hot enough. There are not many director's works, but they are basically exquisite works. I have also seen "Julia's Eyes", which is recommended by the way.
