Chapter 1,798 Unjust trial, I will eventually be judged
Li Yi actually didn't have much expectations for the ending after the change, but unexpectedly, the result was unexpectedly good.
In fact, in the past, there was a reason why major online movies were not recognized by the mainstream film industry.
For example, film critics or mainstream media usually do not report or write movie reviews for the Internet.
But Li Yi was once again an exception.
In fact, it's normal to think about it. After all, Li Yi's identity is different from what it used to be.
And "Sniper Phone Booth" can indeed be said to be unique among major online movies, both in terms of concept and film quality.
Even if it is placed in a theatrical movie, it is remarkable.
For this reason, film critics soon wrote long reviews for "Phone Booth".
The first thing to come out was a film review from an online film critic, which was posted directly under the page of "Sniper Phone Booth".
"To be honest, I was a little worried when the movie "Sniper Phone Booth" started. Why was I worried?
Because in this kind of movies, it’s hard to really achieve the beginning and end of the story! It’s usually more of an anticlimax and a tail end.
Why do you say that?
Let's analyze it in detail.
Putting aside the ending, "Sniper Phone Booth" is actually a pretty good work. Even if it is not a five-star work, there is nothing wrong with giving it four stars. Because the movie is limited to a phone booth, but the story is very novel.
It's creative, and more importantly, the rhythm is very good, and what is the theme of the movie? I think it is human nature! Or the human heart!
What is human nature? This description is called human nature. For more than an hour, this is called digging into the depths of human nature and its weaknesses.
The man behind the scenes is indeed a master, why do you say that?
First of all, his grasp of the male protagonist can be said to be very good.
Some people may say that he took advantage of the kindness of the male protagonist, yes, but this is the real excitement of the movie.
We all know that this kind of movies usually have two camps, or three camps, but there must be opposing camps, good and evil!
It can be said that it is very different from "Buried Alive".
Is there a distinction between good and evil in "Buried Alive"? Maybe there is, but it's not obvious.
Kidnappers are also victims! Perhaps this is one of the reasons why the movie "Buried Alive" received such high ratings.
But "Sniper Phone Booth" is not!
In many Hollywood thrillers, usually in this kind of trial plot, there must be one party who is righteous and one party who is guilty!
Under normal circumstances, the judge may be unfair from a legal perspective, but the person being judged often also commits great evil deeds!
The ending of such a movie usually does not allow the judge to be brought to justice, but rather an open ending, both for plot reasons and to pave the way for the sequel.
But the male protagonist of "Sniper Phone Booth" is undoubtedly the positive side.
What's his fault?
When the male protagonist finally cried and told everyone his innermost secret, I was really shocked. There are too many people living like this in this world, aren't there?
They lie, cheat, have no true feelings, pursue fame and wealth, and do not hesitate to harm the interests of others... They are the so-called big shots, and they are also the most pitiful people. Feel relieved when he tells everything. No need to pretend,
There is no need to hide it. Although you may lose a lot of your glamorous appearance, you will gain more true love deep down. From your wife, friends, colleagues...that is what life is.
It can be said that I was deeply moved by the human nature described in the film, which was vividly explained!
But are these his fault?
No, just like the male protagonist asked the mastermind behind the scenes, why don't you go find those who abuse children, or murderers, why me?
Yes, many of us have this question, so it is obvious that this trial is unfair from a legal perspective or any other level!
The movie has two endings, well, actually there is only one, but it is a somewhat unconventional ending.
In other movies, it might be that the so-called God came out and said some illusory words, which seemed to have a sublimation effect!
But in this movie, what I like even more is that he was caught in the end!
Generally speaking, the murderer should always have a legitimate reason, such as knowing the protagonist. But since there is no character who can become the murderer at the beginning.
When the pizza boy came out, I was a little surprised. It didn't seem right. It was a bit strange.
At that time, I was worried that if the ending was still that kind of open ending, where the murderer is still at large and leaves a meaningful trace behind, it would become anticlimactic.
Fortunately, Director Li Yi is indeed a director, he is always surprising.
He didn't do that, but made up for a more logical ending.
Because this movie is different from other similar trial movies.
First of all, this man did something wrong, but it can definitely be said that the crime is not worthy of death. In view of the previous examples of the two people he killed, I believe that if the male protagonist makes a wrong step, it is entirely possible for him to be killed by this god.
Then why should he?
Well, even if he is full and wants to punish evil and promote good, then why should innocent people be affected? For example, the pizza delivery guy, I think it is really innocent, and the pimp guy.
And the man behind it said: "You didn't respect them."
But in fact, the male protagonist is a human being, an ordinary person, and he also has his own preferences. Many of us say that we should not look at people with colored glasses, but in fact, among all living beings, how many of us can really do this?
Isn't it strange that people like street girls, pimps, etc. hate them, don't like them, and don't want to respect them?
And what about the murderer? He thinks he is God, but in fact, he has even less respect for these people.
What kind of God is he who kills innocent people? He just enjoys playing with others and challenging their psychology.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although such an ending will make the movie seem less brilliant, such an ending is logical."
Of course, the rating of "Sniper Phone Booth" is indeed not particularly high.
It still has a lot to do with the ending, although many ordinary viewers think the ending is very good and very satisfying.
But for some film critics, they felt that this ending made the movie "mediocre".
However, for this statement, there are also fans who defend Li Yi's "Sniper Phone Booth".
“I don’t understand why some people think that the ending where the mastermind behind the scenes is caught makes the movie mediocre.
Isn't this the obvious and logical ending?
If the ending ends with the mastermind walking away to find the next target, then in my personal opinion, it will be the biggest failure.
In fact, in suspense films, the theme is usually not the purpose, but just a prop. He is playing a high-IQ game. He is not trying to tell you anything, especially not to make sense. What he wants you to pay attention to is the movie itself.
, it tells you how the movie is played, and of course the main purpose is to tell you how high his IQ is.
For this kind of suspense film director, he would rather be a gamer than a preacher. In order to make you pay full attention to his gameplay, he does not hesitate to make the final truth extremely simple to prevent you from going astray.
He just keeps thinking about the life thoughts brought by the film. If not, he will explain the truth as if it is not your turn to understand, saving you from spending other attention on his unimportant performance.
Therefore, after watching this movie, it is really inappropriate to analyze which is the incarnation of justice, which is the incarnation of evil, which is the mask, who plays what role, and other old topics and metaphors. Maybe we should look at who he is.
How to play it so that it can be worthy of the director’s good intentions.
The greater the possibility, the higher the level of the password setting. The key to suspense movies is that the answers are different, the kind of maddening guesses, and the assumptions are often exciting moments for both parties.
Why do I say this video is very watchable and interesting.
In fact, designing the scene to be so small requires too much control from the director. People have to move around all the time, so in large scenes, the performance is often very natural, and the director only needs to pull it. In this small scene of a phone booth, reality is
The director has to take care of his characters and act as God. If you look carefully, you can easily find that under the director's tough attitude, the story is still slightly far-fetched. However, if you think about it carefully, you will find that
, this story is reasonable.
Of course, what I want to talk about is what interests me about this story is how this story didn't happen, how to end the conversation, and the possibility of walking out of the phone booth.
The first possibility is that the hero did not go to the phone booth today.
This was mentioned by some netizens on the Internet, but in fact, the director had his own reasons: he went to the phone booth every day to call his girlfriend.
And he took the initiative. After introducing the phone booth, he said: "The last person to use the phone booth is less than two blocks away." In other words, the story had to happen.
Of course, there is another possibility, that is, the hero did not go to the phone booth to make a call today, but what about tomorrow? He will always go, so the occurrence of the story is not accidental, but inevitable.
Second, when he received a call from the strange man, according to common sense, he could have said: "You are sick." and then hung up the phone.
Here, the director made another effort to get him to listen, and there was also a reason for this: it was due to inertia, so it didn't hurt to answer the phone and make a few laughs, so the story continued to happen.
Of course, I have to admire the director. Regarding the voice of the mastermind behind the scenes, the magnetic male voice and the recital-like tone forced the audience to listen together with the male protagonist. And soon, there was a message from the other side of the phone: "Don't even think about hanging up the phone."
"The commanding tone did not give the audience any chance to scold the male protagonist as "you idiot, hang up the phone quickly." They could only continue to listen with the same fear.
Then when he found an opportunity to hang up the phone, the other party said, "No, you won't hang up. You have to obey me."
The order is strengthened. At this time, you have no room to resist at all. You know that you have to listen to this call, otherwise you will not be practical and in danger. At this time, the hero becomes stronger and he starts to answer easily: "I obey you? You are
Who is it?" Then the other party said something in a daze, and suddenly people were at a loss as to what to do, so they had no choice but to obey.
The third way is that while waiting for the call, he can also run, call the police, etc.
The director asked him to stay again because the other party said: "I'm going to say hello to your wife and I'll call you later." This sentence was quite tempting. The actor was still very confident up to this moment. He felt that he could still do it.
To deal with this person, he waited and acted as if he was not afraid of anyone. He was inevitably a little worried, but he was determined to resolve the matter himself.
After that, the two women on the street undoubtedly added trouble to the male protagonist, and the director began to drop harsh information. The strange male voice, the two scolding women and the male protagonist's lover, and the wife's unclear dialogue made the male protagonist suddenly feel messed up.
.
Until the other party pronounced: "I will kill you as soon as you hang up the phone."
In other words, the scene in the phone booth is completely fixed.
This is all the external force exerted by the director time and time again. Although there are traces of external force, it may be that the legend is far-fetched, but it has been handled quite well, and this is human nature, so it cannot be said that there is anything wrong.
Before this, the reason for setting the scene in a phone booth was that the hero was shamelessly trying to figure it out. After that, it completely became the hero's last resort. Because the threat has been reduced. Next, the level increased to the point where it was no longer for his own life.
While staying in the phone booth, for the sake of his wife, lover, and other people's lives, he was completely under the control of the other party. Now, it was natural for him not to come out of the phone booth.
The fourth one was that he found that he was completely under control and had been deceived by the other party: even if he told the truth, it was not over yet. So he hung up the phone out of anger and left the matter to the police. But he said no
The ringtone has to make him return habitually, just like being cast by a monster, and the scene comes back. You can even design some silly words to maintain this scene, such as: "I am on the phone with my psychiatrist."
In the end, the long section of true confession is actually no more interesting than the previous decryption, and it can be regarded as a necessary result.
Later, the director tried to use the delivery man to deceive our feelings: in the end, it is a police movie? A takeaway that cannot be delivered is heartbreaking, and the story of years of accumulated resentment and energy turned into a sharpshooter. In fact, the real murderer's appearance at the last moment can fully reflect the story.
The quality of his high IQ game.
Finally, let’s talk about this mysterious man. Because he disrupts public order, I feel that even if he is the incarnation of the so-called God, it is difficult to call him justice. Is justice just with a straight face and grandstanding?
So the most exciting part appeared. Throughout the film, the "God" who incarnated himself as God, manipulated people's hearts, ignored human life, and played between the police and the male protagonist was caught!
It becomes very, very dramatic, and also very, very exciting!
It even makes people inexplicably want to see his face when he stands in court and is tried!"
