Kojima Cry

The movie starring Nicole Kidman has a very limited cost, very few actors, and very few scenes, but the idea is very new. But apart from the idea, I really have nothing. I feel that the director has a hammer in the east and a stick in the west. He has made everything into a hodgepodge, blinding the super good raw materials. In fact, if this movie is extended from its intention to talk about anti-war, I think it is a very good movie. In one sentence, this movie tells the story of a haunted house with a "human" house from the perspective of a ghost. But if the director takes this as a line, he will focus on depicting the anti-war, such as adding some foreshadowing in the early stage. The male master went to the front line, the orphans and widows stayed at home and it was difficult for the mother to live at home. It was still difficult to live in a luxury mansion, lack of food and drink, and then told stories and played the warmth card to miss her husband and have a bright future. Then the line is laid, and the horror line hides warmth, and then echoes a husband who promised his wife and children will come back, and the wife promised her husband to take care of the children and wait for him here. The hidden line of the husband's lonely soul comes back and continues to be retained, but it will create a little more despair, and then grasp the cool and warm colors. The heroine's ghost world has black and white colors, the human world has white and black colors, and cool colors. Well, with such a change, I think this movie can be improved by several levels. In terms of reversal alone, this type of genre really can't compare to the ultimate reversal thriller story of the sixth sense.

    Humans and ghosts have different paths, each going its own way, not scary.

    To be honest, I want to give six stars. This is not a thriller in the traditional sense at all, nor does it belong to the same kind of "The Shining". It is amazing and shocking. The nostalgia for life and the fear of death and loneliness made me even cry in the end. This one can be regarded as the best in the same type of film.
