Forget it, but still hope you don't get good results

The filming is very good. I must say that Wei Lai, the villain, was designed just right, especially after being afraid of Chen Nian calling the police and apologizing to Chen Nian, he walked side by side with Chen Nian, saying that he wanted to report to Peking University and was happy with Chen Nian, "to release the suspicion. ”, I wanted to make friends with Chen Nian and imagined the future when Chen Nian was pushed to death. If the screenwriting skills are a little bit worse, Wei Lai may die at the most disgusting time, because that kind of death will make the audience feel happy, but in fact, this reduces the depth of the movie's theme "school bullying" a lot. Why didn't the screenwriter use a heartwarming method, but after Wei Lai showed his goodwill, when a girl with excellent grades decided to "return to justice" and imagine the future, she was killed by the protagonist? That's because the episode in which Wei Lai showed his goodwill and apologized just reflected the most embarrassing aspect of campus bullying! Why can a bully lightly attribute everything to an excessive joke after leaving an indelible psychological shadow on others? Why can a bully enjoy a happy life as if nothing happened after the bully does not hold them accountable for these painful experiences? A bully with excellent grades, a wealthy family, and a beautiful appearance will inevitably receive countless praises from those who do not know it in the days to come, but how should the bully's cruel and dark sins be repaid? The reason why the bullied person can let go of the past may be because of kindness, because of helplessness, or because the good and evil that put all their hopes in the future will be rewarded, but it is never so easy to let go! So, why does Wei Lai dare to imagine her bright future in front of Chen Nian? Letting go of the past is just not taking the initiative to take revenge, but I still hope that you will not get good results, but since the rewards for good and evil do not know when, and you feel that you are clean, then I will send you to hell now to see how dirty you are.

    1. Like "Carnival", the value of the theme is greater than the value of the film itself, which expands the possibility of the theme of domestic theaters in the current environment. Under the premise of being allowed, the cruelty and cruelty that can be shown may end here, so I understand the way of expression in some places. 2. "Cruel youth" is a concept almost 20 years ago. This movie has been reactivated once. To be honest, this kind of story of adolescence and killing, death, and sadness is very suspicious. The form of Cruel Story at the bottom actually tells a very hypocritical and dramatic setting. The real campus bullying has more real and rough handling methods, but it will damage the commercial degree, and may not be available. In short, this subject has been polished a bit smoother here, but it is a pity. 3. Yi Yang Qianxi’s performance is really good. I don’t know if this is due to technology or feeling. If it is technology, it is indeed worth looking forward to and needs verification by other contrasting roles. 4. There is a problem with the rhythm of the film, the first third is very slow, and the progress of the relationship between the hero and the heroine lacks reason.

    The layering of the story is very well done. Several forces eventually point to cruel and desperate and socially realistic themes, and there are some inconvenient details that are quite straightforward. As the film progresses, the director’s level becomes stronger. After the third act goes to the inner drama of boys and girls, the speechless climax seems to be possessed by Hirokazu Kee’s "The Third Degree Suspect". The director’s audiovisual language is very good. . In this movie, everything is a bonus item, which is rare. Under the censorship environment in the mainland, it is possible to make such a movie. This creative team is also rare! After walking out of the movie theater, I feel that everything is superfluous. If you encounter such a movie, you can just go and watch it!
