Simple and rude + bludgeoning = a too fake story

The theme of "Tuner" could manage the evil of human nature well-once people break through the bottom line, it is very easy to fall into the abyss without a bottom line. Several characters in the film that promote the development of the plot either end up wickedly, or make a big mistake all the way to the black, quickly turned into a vicious woman and a villain, including Akash, which also made people unconscious after the last-second reversal. Li.

The subject is still black, but it is too rough.

A coincidence. Whether in literary works or film and television works, too many coincidences are quite cheap designs. There are coincidences in anyone's life, but it is really just an accident. More often, we are walking on the interlocking life journey of cause and effect. From this, we can look back, reflect, foresee and expect. Regarding coincidence as destiny, it can be said that it is the standard feature of popcorn movies. When the plot is difficult to develop according to the normal logic, a coincidence can be used to achieve the goal directly. It is very simple and rude, but particularly worry-free. There are so many coincidences in "Tuner" that the female protagonist's lover is the boss of the police station, and the female protagonist murders the old lady, but the residential building of Nuo Da is seen by the tuner; the female protagonist's blood type is wrong. It is also a rare type; two years later, the protagonist and Sophie met easily in London.

The price of too many coincidences is that the story loses its authenticity.

Two perfunctory. The contest between good and evil in the movie is too sloppy: Akash struggles a bit, Sago has a few tears, Molly stops talking, fascinating, and it is difficult to see the convincing inner scene full of power. Empathize with people. The prank boy appeared repeatedly, and it didn’t work in the end. What could he do? The motive of the male protagonist to act blindly (because I’m an artist) is too ridiculous compared to the original French short film, if it’s because of cheating. The low-rent housing still talks about the past. As soon as the old lady said something suspicious, the heroine started. Isn’t this just sitting in a seat and getting the upper body on fire? Then, the police slipped so innocently and faithfully? Obviously the director puts his mind on fancy reversal, thinking that "unexpected" is equivalent to "brain-burning". This is really a misunderstanding. The reversal in "Tuner" is that the director stubbornly pulls the audience into various sharp turns. In short, you can never see the next step on the roller coaster. As for the unreasonableness, who cares. And the real "brain burning" should be complicated truth + rigorous reasoning, even if there is a reversal, it will be natural.

In short, under the prestigious name, it's actually difficult.

    One of the things that impressed me the most about Indian movies is that they can be tough to tell the story well.
