Many directors are not willing to make ghost films, but just want to use the gimmicks of genre films to get a good box office and attract more audiences. They want to interpret a little bit of themselves through the appearance of ghost movies, but often fail. But Su Zhaobin did it, and did it very well.
When I watched it for the first time, I didn't understand the meaning of the thread. I understood the plot, but I felt that the thread had no need to exist. It was just that the mother wanted revenge for her son. Bad luck. But after watching it just now, my thoughts have changed. It is not in vain to use silk as the title of the film.
Let's talk about characters, Ye Qidong seems to be a tailor-made character for Zhang Zhen, silent, capable, warm in his heart but shy to express. He is a sniper who shoots decisively and confidently without the suspect saying the final password. He is an excellent detective who pursues the case with perseverance. He is a dutiful son who delays his mother's life in front of the sickbed but constantly blames himself. A bitter man who never dares to say love to his dear girlfriend. The four-color Zhang Zhen outlines the perfect Ye Qidong as the protagonist. If the characters are full enough, the film will look good. Zhang Zhen is my favorite Taiwanese actor. I like one and a half of his movies, one is Moose, and the other half is the best time. I like the billiard room inside, love it! Zhang Zhen is a very lucky actor. He can always participate in big productions and always find good films. Even if it's a bad film like Deep Sea Searching and Chibi, he has also encountered directors like Tsui Hark and John Woo, not to mention word of mouth. At least the box office is guaranteed. However, good luck also requires good strength. First of all, his appearance is good enough, not how handsome he looks. After all, the definition of handsome is different in each era. It can be cynical like Zhou Runfa's pony brother, or Lee Jun-ki's king's man is so androgynous. His looks are heroic, and he can survive as a handsome guy in any era, especially his slender eyes and thin cheeks, very photogenic. The body is also good, the height is moderate, and the physique is very lean.
Let's talk about Hashimoto, this character is very pitiful, born with a disability, he could have used his intelligence and wisdom to live a better life in the world, but he just pays attention to the contempt expressed by those who discriminate against his disability, and uses a counter to scold his boss. His counts were recorded to build up hatred. So he was very unhappy, lost interest in this life, and hurriedly placed good hopes on the next life. This is his motivation and spiritual strength for scientific research. So he happily committed suicide in the grass, brushed his teeth, threw away his watch, released the kid, and happily said to him, "I don't have to envy you anymore." Then, he emptied the life-saving insulin he had been carrying with him. , looked at his face one last time with the metal box, and slashed his throat with a dagger. How many people would choose such a way of dying? Suicide is mostly a last resort, so most people choose quick death methods such as hanging, jumping off the building, lying on the rails, but Hashimoto cut his throat and let his blood pour out like a waterfall, just like experiencing the entire death process. I heard that there is an extended version of the plot in the film. It is Hashimoto after his death. He did not do whatever he wanted as a ghost, but as a ghost, he kept repeating the action of committing suicide. What else? Can't do it. This ending is ironic enough to be absent from the normal version. I think this is the final judge that should be given to Hashimoto by the film. Let Yosuke Eguchi play such a role may be to add some international elements. It is said that it is easier to distribute overseas and it is easier to be recognized by the Japanese people. Eguchi's performance is not brilliant, but he is not at fault. It can be regarded as expressing Hashimoto's vicissitudes and resentment to the audience.
Many people love Lin Jiaxin and think she is fresh enough. Although she is not very beautiful and a little baby fat, she is very gentle and feminine. She is also a horror film professional. "Alien Dimension", "Help" and "Monster" are all scary films. Maybe the director saw her gentle temperament and wanted to use it to set off the horror of the film. In fact, Lin Jiaxin is still the most suitable for playing this kind of little bird-like flower girl. She is weak on the outside but strong on the inside. Jiawei is the pillar of Qidong, the person he wants to protect, and the person he misses the most before his death. I saw a lot of comments saying that Lin Jiaxin played this role too much, which is a pity. In fact, I don't think so, because the temperament of this role is the most suitable for her, and this role is very important. I believe many people will be moved by her silent "I like you, but you are not happy".
Big S, although she played Su Yuan died very early, her appearance was amazing, and she really deserved to be the beauty king. Su Yuan's personality is ruthless and selfish. For the sake of fame and fortune, she strongly rejected Qidong's participation from the very beginning, which can be said to be short-sighted. Later, in order to enjoy the research results exclusively, she made a further ruthless move, trying to take that ghost child away, but unfortunately she met Hashimoto, who was more advanced in technology and more ruthless in character, and finally fell short.
Let's talk about Chen Bolin, he played Shouren, he was a great match, and his character was not as strong as Da S. He always obeyed orders and died naturally. I actually don't like Chen Bolin, but I recognize his existence as an actor. He works very hard. Although he has appeared in many commercial films, he is trying to go international. You know, he is not very famous as an actor. It's very hard to play a foreigner's play. Such a new generation of actors needs the support of the audience.
This is the first time I have seen Zhang Junning, but I feel good about her. Her role as He Mei is the most humane in the research group, although she still cannot escape the fate of being killed.
It was a 120,000-point accident for Wan Fang to play the ghost mother, which seems to be very inconsistent with her usual style. Maybe singing is singing, and acting is acting.
Ghost movies need to be made like this to look good, scaring is just a means, not the purpose of the movie. Movies want to move people, they want to arouse people's sympathy, and they want to awaken the warmth in people's hearts. From this film, I saw two parts of the mother-son relationship. The mother played by Wan Fang chose to strangle her son to death in the grass so that he would no longer suffer from humiliation. She undoubtedly loved her son deeply; the son played by Zhang Zhen In order to wait for a miracle, he stubbornly maintained his mother's life with instruments, and he also loved her deeply. The same love, but different choices. As people who can choose, they endure extreme pain and suffering, maybe those who are chosen will be happier.
