In any case, this will be a purely American youth film worthy of savoring and thinking about. In this square inch of the world, everyone lives without principle. Everyone takes drugs, promiscuously, and leaves school to waste. The highly aggressive Sean spends all day dealing with dangerous drug dealers outside the school and numb drug addicts on campus. , The only comforting thing is those blue love letters. The sad thing is that they are not from his sweetheart Laura. Although the innocent Laura believes that her boyfriend is Victor, she occasionally treats handsome Sean has a miserable heart, and when she finds that her favorite teacher just wants to exchange credits for her oral sex service, she is also happy to obey; Paul has a few reliable gay partners, but only Sean is his real heart. People, but although the other party did not fight against him because of his "sexual assault" and obscenity like other people, but also ruthlessly rejected him; Victor is a standard swinger, and the whole trip to Europe has nothing to do with him. Build a tree, but occasionally, he will also feel at a loss after being mentally bruised; there is also the humble girl who has always silently liked Sean. She did not have the courage to confess to her beloved boy until she died, so she could only choose to soak in a desolate way. In the cold bathtub, let the body turn blue; among them, there are all kinds of sex hunters, sensual girls who can go to bed with the whole football team casually. They do nothing except search for excitement and repeat the content of a single anesthesia all day; even teachers. , But also mentally empty, only knows the addict who tricks girls into providing sex services.
The film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Bret Easton Ellis. This novel has a lot of origins from "American Psychiatric", which was also adapted into a movie later. Not only are they written by the same author, the actor Sean is also [American Psychiatric]. ] The male protagonist’s brother, this may provide a broader social satire background for this film. However, director Roger apparently played down the consideration of current affairs. He even eliminated the original Patrick Bateman (American mental patient) when adapting the novel into a movie. This made the film less violent and increased the sadness. It looks more like a reflective film, rather than a melancholic sociology textbook like [US X-Files] or [Basketball Diary].
Some people have asserted that [Law of Temptation] is the best youth film in Hollywood in the 1990s. This beauty may be compared to commercial productions such as [Scream], [American Pie], and [Horror Movies]. Come, it is not necessarily objective, but this movie is indeed worthy of your quiet appreciation and repeated contemplation, because everyone can find the shadow of their own life in it.
