"Crossing through Siberia"

Summer 2021-12-23 08:01:58

The film creates a very good atmosphere through the Russian location and the confined space of the train: the overall exotic atmosphere, the suspense in the first half, and the tension in the second half. The performance of the actors is also remarkable, especially Emily Mortimer who successfully portrayed a character with complicated experiences and various "dangerous situations".

The whole story is still pretty good-looking (I guess Lao Maozi would not like it). Perhaps the director may not be able to say that the transfer of the film is particularly fresh in order to make it easy for the audience to understand. All the suspense can basically guess the result, and there is no surprise. Can't excel.

    If it is said that as the train leaves Beijing, all the way to the north and west, the color of the camera slowly turns monotonous into the whiteness of Siberia, then the whole story is also the same. From the suspenseful foreshadowing at the beginning, it gradually becomes a pale development and far-fetched The ending. The original four (should be plus five police detectives) with stories were castrated into such a small case and ended in haste. What a waste of so many good elements, the Sino-Russian train , Russia after transformation, the tragic Siberian snowfield... If it can be scored dynamically, it should be 4, 3, 2, 1, and finally the average score, two stars...

    The film once again proves that drugs harm others and themselves, as long as they are related to drugs, they will not end well. Never liked Kate Mara and Woody Harrelson. He is not fit to wear glasses. http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjQ4NTAyNjk2OA==.html?spm=a2hzp.8253869.0.0 New Oriental Train Murder https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV15A411b7Kv
