Drive low and go high?

Alia 2022-01-05 08:02:02

The director used the technique of driving low and walking high, and the opening was very flat, even making the audience think that it was just another actor. But just like singing, starting low is to sing high notes to appear higher. After quickly reviewing the plot of the previous movie, and looking at the loop pattern at the beginning, I thought it would continue to find the murderer, but replaced the white-haired boy with the protagonist, but it made the director think of it simple. The film is significantly faster than the first film, and the amount of information has doubled, giving the audience no time to predict in advance. Not only the murderer was found 20 minutes before the beginning, but the cause of the circulation was also found. Immediately afterwards, the secret was not only exposed to the companions who participated in the experiment, but also people who had contact with the experiment were also involved...This completely abandoned the first story frame and opened a new mode. Screenwriters and directors are really bold. If the new model does not tell the story well or the audience does not buy it, it will be self-defeating and smash the sign. Few people are willing to take such a risk. Admire the courage to create and innovate. ......... But what's behind? Can't write it down, disappointed.

    Still a funny movie. Looks like there's a third one. Heck.

    A botched version of the "don't dwell on a stagnant past" motif, the mother role is betraying the nature of this maternal space. It's a pity that in order to continue the puzzle-solving structure of the first part, it did not hesitate to destroy the "endless daily" feeling of such themes. The setting of the parallel universe not only weakens the "dream feeling", but there are too many sci-fi stalks. It has become a house gas, and the gap is too large. Easter eggs are new, and it would be nice if you could play a different type every time.
