I came here after watching "Manslaughter" and wanted to know how a movie can create a perfect crime. I didn't have much expectations, but I didn't expect it to be another wonderful movie after the memory of murder. Korean Movie.
At the beginning, it is really messy and confusing, and it is easy to get confused, but at the end you will find that this is the director's intention. The first shot is like a bomb revealed to you in advance. You know the bomb will explode but you don't know when it will be, and the suspenseful atmosphere of the whole film comes out. At the end, the story is told through the mouth of the police, which echoes the beginning, which also explains why the male protagonist has been so unwilling for the past fifteen years, and why the female protagonist has been trying to punish the murderer for the past fifteen years. One, as a policeman, watched the murderer slip away, and the other, as a mother, watched her daughter die in front of her eyes. She was desperate or unwilling.
If you think about it, there are a lot of foreshadowings in the movie. The heavy rain when the police burned the files, the name of the address on the hostess' phone call, the close-up of the mother's chest when the hostess played the kidnapper when she called, the criminal's skillful movements and familiarity with the surrounding environment when escaping at the train station, It is not difficult to deduce that my grandfather was the murderer fifteen years ago. Interestingly, there are many scenes of rain in the movie, burning files, chasing and keeping umbrellas in the market, and the heroine discovering the truth and preparing to assassinate, etc. In my opinion, the director also wants to express something with the help of rain, maybe it’s God’s will or it’s using To wash away sin may be to wash away false appearances.
The atmosphere and rhythm set off by the whole film are very strong. Whether it is a montage crime technique or an editing method, it is easy to follow the rhythm of the music and enter the state of the movie, which can give people space to think.
In addition, there are actually some small loopholes in some places, such as the rain scene in the market, it seems unnatural to leave an umbrella for evidence, and when there are so many people and two police officers, I know that the hostess came to the restaurant to find out later. This is still a bit of a joke, and it should not be added for the sake of leaving evidence. In addition, I saw someone saying that my grandfather ran faster than the young people. It was when I saw this that I felt that this grandfather was not simple. Take a closer look at the approximate distance between them when the police found them, and no matter how you look at it, lying on the edge of the track and waiting for the train to pass by is not something that an inexperienced or capable old man can do, so these two points are enough. It proves that my grandfather is familiar with all these processes, and that my grandfather has the ability and physical strength to do it all, so there is no need to worry about this. In the end, wouldn’t he be caught up? Fifteen years ago, he had already climbed the wall and went out. Besides, he Not too old now, a man should still be able to run around fifty years old.
In any case, it can be regarded as an excellent film. It would be great when domestic films have this level.
