Three stories, one from the book, one from the past, and one from the present. There is not much content in the "now" part, there are very few things that actually happened, and the director's conspiracy is the most. It can't be said that it is completely mystical, but in the "now reality" part, a lot of psychological suspense is created to echo the content of the book, but part of the plot really makes people do not understand what they are doing. The "book" part is quite exciting, but it's still too simple to look at it. A story of revenge divided in two halves, the end of the story is a little bit. . . Still don't know what the director wants to do. The "past" part is more realistic and logical, but it is too bland. The three parts are actually quite ordinary when taken out separately, but the director going back and forth to make them echo is the more brilliant part of this movie, although the director has done a bit too much in many places, and the method is too obvious and deliberate. Moreover, the photography of this film is not as good as the comments said, and there are at most a few shots that can demonstrate the director's artistic skills. Jake Gyllenhaal's acting is worthy of praise, in fact, several leading actors have contributed a good performance. Amy Adams is slightly inferior, but it can't be said to be her shortcomings. The role the director arranged for her really doesn't have much room for development, and there is the kind of plot where she is frightened when she reads a book, it is really difficult to give her a chance to express. But Adams is really beautiful, and beautiful and beautiful, and I hadn't noticed it before.
