This one can really be said to be the best of the Peng brothers. When I was young, I saw Li Xinjie in my eyes, but it was only when I rewatched it that I found it so beautiful.
The first is the video settings. The opening scene is the cornea transplant of the congenitally blind heroine, which gives the plot a theoretical basis. My sister took her to see a psychiatrist and the hero mentioned the process of re-understanding the world. If the plot follows this line, It may be the tone of "Alien Dimension": the heroine said that she should not see what she saw, and the hero said that you just touched the world with your eyes, blah, blah, blah... Fortunately, this line is over. The downside of this is that the male protagonist's psychiatrist setting is too tasteless. It seems that the female protagonist just needs a man who can have a relationship with the attending doctor. In order to take care of the plot and time, the male protagonist chooses to immediately believe the female protagonist's words. But after all, the flaws do not hide the beauty.
Then there are the details. As netizens said, the elevator and other two scenes are destined to be a classic. There are too many shoddy productions in the glory period of Hong Kong films, and good shots and details are precious. This reflects what the creator regards the audience as. Undoubtedly, Peng Fa and Peng Shun at that time treated the audience as an old friend to discuss this issue together, not as a mechanic to dig out the wallet.
One more thing I have to say, moderation. I've watched a lot of movies lately, what comes to my mind. If you think of zombies, there will be a bunch of zombies, no matter if the audience is annoying or not; when you think of mechas, the screen will be full of mechas, no matter whether the audience is tired or not. The film's conscientious special effects creator can still do enough, which is really something that horror films, even various types of films, can't do.
Good reviews.
