Rather than an action movie, I think it's a good suspense movie (this article contains a lot of spoilers)

Why do I say this is a good suspense film, not only because of the obvious reversal at the end, the reversal you see is just the director's reversal on the bright side, and the director is still hiding in the dark details of its numbers.

At first, when I first watched it for the first time, I probably knew in the middle of the movie that the heroine was the so-called "white rivers", and was she really Baihe? I watched the ending patiently. Unsurprisingly, the heroine was the last killer. , Seeing this place, most people would not have the urge to watch it a second time, but it happened that the director left a very strange suspense here, that is, the first shot of the heroine was an empty gun, and then the hero took out A bullet, when you thought the male protagonist would fight back, you were actually shot in the head by the female protagonist! ? ? ?

So weird, what happened? Many people are asking why the first shot is an empty gun? First of all, at 1:33:55 in the video, you can see that there should be only the heroine's coat on the chair, and then combined with the heroine, you can put on clothes and come out after entering the toilet, so there is a high probability that the male protagonist's clothes are also in the toilet. As for why the clothes are all there Toilets, probably all thrown into the washing machine, or for some indescribable reason (laughs). Then pay attention to one more detail, that is, when the male protagonist entered the door and saw the female protagonist Quan Guo lying on the bed, he subconsciously put his hand into his pocket. The same action also happened when the good family girl in the restaurant walked towards the male protagonist. This is the male protagonist. The action of taking out a gun subconsciously, so what I want to explain above is that the male protagonist has a gun in his shirt pocket. And the female protagonist is most likely to be holding the male protagonist's gun.

Explain clearly the origin of the gun. It is easy to understand why the first shot was an empty gun. The male protagonist found that something was wrong with the female protagonist, so he removed the first bullet after loading. The point is, since the male protagonist finds that the female protagonist is not right, why only unload one bullet instead of emptying the entire magazine? If the female protagonist is afraid that the weight of the pistol is wrong, then the male protagonist should not exercise with the female protagonist first. , even if you are exercising, you should hide the other one under the pillow. Even if you don't hide it, since you are vigilant, you should immediately lean over and grab the gun after the heroine misses the first shot, instead of taking it out and unloading it yourself. dropped bullets.

In the first half hour of the whole movie, he was telling us how cautious the male protagonist is, who can analyze many people, and suddenly the male protagonist suddenly jjjing here? Was killed by a fat girl inexplicably? Is the male protagonist brain-dead, or is the director brain-dead? I don't think so, please read it again, what the male protagonist said when he held the bullet to the female protagonist: "the choice is yours", the choice is yours!

The choice is yours! What is this choice in the mouth of the male protagonist here? The heroine's answer is: "I know" Here, the heroine's understanding of the choice is likely to be: the hero asks her to choose whether to kill him or not. In fact, many viewers probably understand this, but this is only superficial. The front of the comprehensive film , and the character of the heroine in the whole film, it can be seen that the heroine is actually a very weak killer.

Where exactly did it show up? The first is the bloodstain on the restaurant's work clothes. This bloodstain is very strange. It is not only on the last close-up. It can be seen when the hostess comes out with a plate when she first enters the restaurant. The specific time is: 0:31:40, and here The male protagonist does not have his unique narration analysis (in fact, this narration analysis will fail once it reaches the female protagonist, which will be discussed later).

Then there is the dialogue between the heroine and the fake sheriff. The ending part has specific content, which means that the hero is very suspicious and may have a gun. What does it mean? To put it bluntly, the heroine did not realize that the police officer was a fake. Identity, one is the hands of the dirty male protagonist, (of course, the male protagonist here may not find that the police are fake, and later the female protagonist came to the hotel and reminded the male protagonist that the police may be fake, and the female protagonist is not completely unwitting) It’s just that This little alert was wiped out by the last two conversations, that is, the heroine asked the hero about the sheriff, the hero just recalled it in his mind, and then confused it vaguely In the past, and the heroine believed it so, until the end, maybe the heroine thought that the fake sheriff was the real sheriff. This is the character that the director can create for the heroine.

As for the last dialogue, I can say a lot. For example, the fake couple and the male protagonist were in a restaurant and analyzed that the two might not be a couple. However, when facing the female protagonist, he said that he thought they were a couple, and he was in a restaurant. At that time, he saw that the single man was carrying a gun. The man in the fake couple might be a killer, but he was an amateur. ? The hostess said that you will understand now. Do you really understand now, man? Hehe, it's a pity that you don't get an Oscar, what a killer, the funniest thing is that the heroine believes it to be true!

This is the inexplicable character design of the heroine, which gives people a sense of shrewdness and stupidity. The so-called shrewdness, after all, finally killed the male protagonist who has been paving the way for the shrewd character in the early stage. If you don't pay attention to these details in the middle, you may really praise One voice: There is something about this female killer, and she has killed such a cautious male protagonist.

But based on the above analysis, do you still think that the male protagonist capsized in the final gutter? Heroes are sad about Beauty Pass? (It's not very beautiful, and it's quite fat.) I personally think that the male protagonist has already seen everything. First, he returned to the restaurant for the second time and saw that the words in front of cups were torn off. Combined with the blood on the female protagonist's chest, it is obvious that the male protagonist Can you really find it, you can see it, can you see it? And he was standing behind the heroine with a knife. It wasn't that he wanted to attack the heroine, but he wanted to see the heroine's reaction. The heroine was very alert and kept facing him sideways, and then left with an excuse. In the hotel, the heroine was rejected, and when she went out to see snow, she made an extremely loud and contrived speech. Did these male protagonists not pay attention? Do you believe it? Even if the male protagonist doesn't find it here, then after killing the amateur male and turning out the note, although the format of the note is different, the same time, the same killer, can't explain the problem, even if the amateur and the note are ignored, inexplicably true. The sheriff was killed, and someone who didn't know who was impersonating came out. It's time to think about why. The most important thing is that there are a bunch of strange people in front.

So how to analyze the male protagonist should have known the sincerity long ago, and in the end he asked the female protagonist's choice, in fact, more of a feeling of empathy, he wanted the female protagonist to choose to give up her current identity and find a trace of humanity like herself, right? And the heroine thinks she knows everything, but unfortunately she doesn't know anything!

When the male protagonist was on the phone with the old man in the car, there was a scene where he was looking ahead to the right. According to the direction in which the man in the holster was driving, the direction should be the direction of the hotel door. He said to the old man that there is one last thing, in fact. At this time, everything has been planned, including the dialogue with the heroine, the reaction of the heroine, and even with the heroine pp, when holding the heroine on the bed and asking her if there is any place she wants to go, at this moment the hero may be I really want to escape all this with the heroine. This also has the last scene. He gave the heroine time to think about it. Are you willing to escape with me, stop being a killer, and stop betraying yourself? My heart, if your choice is no, then I choose death!

After talking about the hero and heroine, let’s talk about other details in the liar, like the dog. Some people say that the hut was left by the last killer, and so is the dog. I think it is possible. There is another possibility. The dog may be a metaphor. Representing humanity, the male protagonist whistled and called the dog when he left home before doing the last task, but the dog did not come, which means that the male protagonist temporarily suppressed his human side, and finally the female protagonist raised a gun and wanted to shoot the dog. The dog, but still can't get rid of it, it means that the heroine still can't erase the last trace of her humanity.

Then there are the old man and the male lead. I have always had a brain hole before. I feel that the old man and the male lead are actually the same person, but there are still many things that don't make sense, but there are also many details that make me feel like two personalities, such as taking the second task. Go to the email and call the old man, the house behind the male protagonist is obviously not the hut he lives in, and then the dialogue here is very subtle, it is very like the male protagonist is convincing himself to do this task, if you interpret the content of the dialogue, it is like talking to yourself. He said to himself: This task is different from the previous one. It’s all right. This time, it’s an exception. It’s good to follow the rules in the future. If the time is too short, it will be an accident.

Note that this is the plan made by the old man for the male protagonist to make an accident. For someone like the male protagonist, will he let others make plans for him?

In addition, the wine bottle that appeared on the left side of the male protagonist at 9 minutes and 18 seconds was the same as the wine bottle that appeared at the old man at 1:27:01, and the bag and the back up that the old man put in after wiping the gun at 1:04:38 The man's bag in the box is exactly the same. Also, it was said at the beginning that the male protagonist answered the task by email. Even if the old man gave it, he would send an e-mail first, just like the second task. In the last task, the male protagonist answered the old man's phone directly, and then the two of them were there. A hut man took the note.

If the old man was not in the cemetery for a long time, I really feel that these two people are actually just the character of the male protagonist. , after all, she personally took over the old man's note.

By the way, there are two more points to add. I almost forgot when I wrote too much. As mentioned above, there is a very interesting part of the film, that is, the male protagonist will talk to himself. It will also appear when you are with people, but I don't know if you have noticed it. This narration will disappear for no reason when the male and female protagonists are just facing each other. The sentence "my hero" sounds like a fog, why is it suddenly my hero, you don't analyze it, maybe our English is not good, and there are other interpretations, I can only understand that this may be The password received by the hostess, the note says my hero.

Another point is the same place, the couple in the group, the woman was going to the toilet, and the man pushed back into the car. Actually, I was quite puzzled here. I think this woman is also a killer. When the man saw her at the gas station, there was no blood on her hand. Later, the blood on her hand on the side of the road was because she killed the man? The male protagonist kindly wanted to help her, and then she didn't want to kill the male protagonist anymore, so she didn't go. Anyway, it's very strange here. The man is gone, and the car is not on the side of the road. Only this woman is left on the side of the road, and her hands are covered in blood. Could it be that she just dragged the male lead for no reason and asked the female lead to go to the restaurant first, and then stay A bunch of flaws? I can't explain it logically, someone can help me out.

The above is my personal opinion. It is the first time I have written such a long film review. I hope you like it.

But there must be some misunderstandings, I hope you can give me some pointers! !
