At the beginning of the film, the story of the death of a mother who suffered from cancer at a young age (44 years old), watching the growth of the child from childhood to adulthood is moving, the separation of mother and child is my biggest tear point. This film is all unfolded from the angle of the electronic camera. Although it is a bit restrained, it is also a novelty. The plot is reasonable and compact, and the reversal at the end is unexpected but very reasonable. I totally buy it, and I really didn't guess the real murderer in advance, and there are many details that support the ending. Apart from the film itself, one of my feelings is that I don't quite understand that young Americans spend more time on websites than sharing their personal lives. Maybe they don't have the confusion of harassing phone calls caused by China's Internet fraud and personal information leakage, but It is a sad thing to be alienated from family members in real life, lack of friends, but can only talk to strangers on the Internet. Since the advent of the Internet, a new world of Pandora has opened up.
There is an error in the subtitle translation:
After the policewoman told him about helping her son in a later video, David said: I hope you know I'm thankful that you were assigned to us. The policewoman replied: I just wished it wasn't the case being assigned to. The last sentence is wrongly translated: I wish I had not been assigned this case. It should be: I hope this case is not assigned to me. Meaning: I'm actually very willing to do this case, showing that she understands David's father's feelings about his daughter's worries.
But there are a few less clear points:
1 Can the police take any case voluntarily? The police should have arranged a case, right? And it just so happens that she doesn't have a case to do? This is a little risky. Of course, don't take it too seriously, it can also make sense.
2 Another thing that is not very clear is why the confessed sexual assault confessed and committed suicide, of course, under the guidance or persecution of the policewoman, because he is also an addict himself, it is unknown how the policewoman led him. The coincidence of this timing is unbelievable.
3 The policewoman gave public perjury twice on TV: the cliff search area was checked; the addict's DNA was found in the car. All these tasks need to be completed by the inspection department and the search department. If she lied openly, wouldn't the relevant police departments question it?
But overall, the details of the film are well done. The actress who played the policewoman was very beautiful when she was young, but unfortunately she was not well-known, and everyone's acting skills were good. It is a small-budget movie that succeeds by plot.
