First of all, in terms of form, the film uses a variety of computer network video and audio to the maximum extent to string together the plot. The limitation it sets itself is that everything is presented on the computer, which is not easy and fun, and makes the audience have a strong sense of substitution. It makes full use of the well-known factors of computers and networks, but it is not rigid and innovative in its use. For example, the night when the girl disappeared, it uses a very old-fashioned screensaver of Windows to render the ominous foreboding. Another example is that when Dad opens his daughter's laptop, the whole theater's surround sound "duang" bangs loudly. It's the sound of Apple turning on the computer, indicating a disturbing fact that Dad is about to discover. I also noticed this sound being used well in "Wall-E" before, but the level of horror is stronger in this film. In the film, the cursor and arrows are used to guide the audience's thinking, and the plot is unfolded step by step, which is also well done. The arrows are full of suspense.
I heard that this is the third movie to be presented on a full computer screen. I haven't seen the other two, so it's hard to make an evaluation. Personally, I think the form of this one is quite delicate and flexible, and the viewing effect is not lost.
In addition, due to this form of presentation, there are actually higher requirements for actors. Their performances should not only be "lifelike", but also express the characters' psychology in various subtle ways. My John Zhao showed off his acting skills without a trace. Most of the time, he doesn't have very dramatic close-ups, "close-ups" are there, but they have to be big ones like facetime. It's actually not easy. Later, there was a scene where he could finally fully express his sadness and comfort him secretly. It must have been the easiest performance.
In terms of content, even aside from the uniqueness of the form, this story is not simple. There are a lot of foreshadowings. In retrospect, it all makes sense. It is a very competent reasoning and suspense drama. The creators are unambiguous when creating the online profiles of the characters. I believe that if I brush it a second time, I will notice more details. All the interfaces of facebook, soup, youtube, instagram, etc., are realistic and natural. And its content, friend list, number of likes, upload time, search results, all contain a lot of ingenuity. According to imdb's tidbits, the filming took only 13 days, but it took two years in the later stage, I believe it.
The film is called searching... a word counts. This is not only a very crucial action in our era, "searching", and of course, it is the father searching for his daughter's whereabouts online and offline, and it is also his pursuit of his daughter's online whereabouts, so as to truly understand the inner world and growth trajectory of her daughter, and also ask questions. What is your responsibility as a father? To be honest, my father kept discovering his daughter’s posts, and gradually realized his daughter’s pain and loneliness. That part made me tremble, and I wanted to run home and hug Peanuts right away. Although asking myself is a little better than the dad in the film, I can't really say that I have a perfect answer to the question "Do you really know your child?"
There are also many interesting details in the film. For example, one of the boys confessed that he went to Bieber's concert or something, and after the girl disappeared, a lot of good friends suddenly appeared on the Internet after the girl disappeared. These are all common behaviors, which are ridiculed by Wei Wei. But this is also normal.
When I came home after watching the movie, I really hugged the peanuts and said: baby I love you. She said: I love you too. Mom, I am reviewing here.
After thinking about it, I foked her on instagram, and I know who her best friend is, and I also foked several of her friends, and I also know her troubles (at least she told me a lot), I have done enough ? What new things will there be in this world in the future? XDDDD
