After reading it all, I can finally evaluate it. The score is inflated, the case itself is not complicated, the storytelling is more complicated, an unnecessary nesting is made, a false turning point, the role of the two black police officers, in addition to expressing political correctness, is to muddy the water and try to guide in the middle. Audiences are suspicious of Matthew McConaughey, and only viewers with zero movie experience will be misled.
The whole process of solving the case is just to find A, A says B, B then brings out C, and it continues like this. It is a relatively flat and boring game of finding people. given by the chain. The more wonderful jumping associations in reasoning or suspenseful works, in this play only green ears go to green paint (forgive me, I have forgotten how the green ears came from), which seems to be lack of skill.
The atmosphere that has been emphasized from the beginning, the screenshot-style description of the background of the era, the portrayal of the social environment, the private lives of the two policemen, the characters and the detection of the case itself are still heterogeneous and unintegrated, and, once in the last two When the three episodes began to advance the clues of the case, the previous ones were gone, extramarital affairs, marital burnout, children degenerate, weird and incommunicable, drugs, chaotic communities, motorcycle gangs, blind and ignorant believers, all are gone, only the left In fact, this point is not as good as Shuang Xuetao and Xin Yukun. Chinese writers and directors have long learned to give an image/scenario/everyday things a dual role, that is, to promote the role of narrative, express the theme, and enhance the atmosphere. But in this play, it is separate, and the private goods that the director wants to express are as incompatible as oil floating on water. And if the ultimate criminal is called Z, then the chain from A to Z is burnt out when it is discovered, obviously you have already forgotten who A is when you see Z, and how it continues from A to Z, This is because almost most people are functional and throw away when they are used. The most obvious is the two criminals in the prison, and even the halfway boss and the final boss are functional, and they are easily burned in the narrative chain. The missing link, responsible for the mysterious, strange, weird, disgusting and perverted in a small amount of playing time, and never portrayed from the inside out, I am more interested in how the Childress family collapsed, they were originally Such a big family, how the house decayed, how the floor and stairs collapsed, how the abandoned dolls, the books piled on the floor filled the house, the sister was obviously the product of inbreeding, and How did their family get so obsessed with the devil's belief that they collapsed to this point? nothing. I want to see how perverts change, not just how to find a pervert. Looking for perverted works, there are already countless in the world. Isn't a serial killer in an episode of "Criminal Minds" not enough for you? Haven't seen the Silence of the Lambs series? Haven't seen "Double Eyes"? "Seven Deadly Sins" has been forced to pretend for 20 years, isn't it enough?
Cult worship is also functional, it only gives horror to the case, what happened to the king in yellow, what did the antlers mean, what religious function did the statues made of branches fill the whole film, and what were the sacrificial ceremonies like? , What is the teaching of the cult, there is no such thing. The last place similar to the altar has so many branches. I think it will take a long time for the staff to build it. Is it for immortality? don't tell you. How those southern families kept these secret demon cults and gradually became alien in those cults, and no. Cult worship is just a gimmick, a gimmick from beginning to end, the criminals casually say "black star", "yellow king", mysterious, pretending to be a gimmick, and I even look forward to that dead fat man before his death to have a passion A speech describing the greatness of one's beliefs, the insignificance of human beings, or repeating that death is not the end, time is just a blabla, even if it is just to express the excitement of immortality. No. I didn't plan to take a picture of a cult from the inside and deconstruct beliefs. have not thought.
I prefer five episodes ago, before the case was moving fast, and I had taken off my pants, held my teacup, and waited for the director to put a blackboard on and clear his throat and say, "Come on, let's talk about how America fell into this." I've waited With such divine seriousness coming - show us why drugs are so prevalent, how the divide between children and parents is formed, why couples end up as strangers, the ineffectiveness of the police bureaucracy and the lack of talent, those How Southern families have been lost to history—that kind of seriousness rarely seen in the gore and boredom that fills screens today. In the blink of an eye, it was gone. Some are just a normal crime drama.
