The script is average, the filming is ok

Jodie Foster is the second most talented actor in Hollywood today, after Meryl Streep. However, many of the films she has acted in are scary, eerie, and eerie, such as this one.

As a thriller, the theme of this film is the story of the protagonist mother and daughter and gangsters fighting wits and courage in a closed empty house. The script is written in general, and the story is not exciting. However, thanks to the skill of director David Fincher, the effect of the filming is still good, and the process of watching is still relatively nervous, which may be because I have watched less horror movies. Of course, it is still far from "Cry on the Island".

As a lesbian, Jodie Foster has been a short-haired and capable image in recent years, and is indeed quite suitable for a thriller similar to this film. What's interesting is that Kristen Stewart, who plays her daughter in the film, is drawn from the same model as her, a girly version.

In addition to the horror, this film does not forget to let the audience relax from time to time. The source of happiness is the three gangsters. A house designer who doesn't want to make a big fuss, an idiot who is greedy for money, a lunatic with a broken head. Pay attention to the dialogue between the three of them, there is no shortage of hilariousness. For example, a madman keeps hitting the ceiling with a hammer, and an expert calmly says: "Upside is steel. Do you think if an idiot can broke it with a hammer, I can still take this job? Keep doing it, don't let splits into your eyes."

    In fact, I watched it many times on ICS and Oriental Film Channel even in class, but there is always a strange thing that I have never watched. The atmosphere is good, but I don’t like KS’s

    The long shots in the film that explain the space and level of the big house, as well as the slow-editing cross-montage, are really good. However, in this movie, David Fincher didn't let people see more of his unique and iconic content. The second half of the film is similar to the usual American suspense film, and the ending is basically guessed.
