Reason 1 of recommendation: The theme is novel
When the exam becomes a trade, who can laugh last!
Exam cheating, few people will think of shooting, even if it is not easy to grasp the scale!
After all, cheating is not something worth advocating, and the entry point is relatively small and difficult to cut!
"Genius Gunner" has taken this difficult point and shot it very well!
Reason 2: The plot is excellent
From a few exams, step by step to change the direction of the story, let people exclaim!
Let the audience feel the stimulation of cheating, and the play gives the audience questions, so that the audience consciously begins to reflect on the cheating.
While the plot is smooth, several twists are also handled well.
The ending is also handled very well, so that the audience will have a "realization" after watching the movie!
Reason for recommendation three: textbook editing
The director uses textbook editing and a shaky BGM to make a story of a genius bully who uses high IQ cheating to make a profit, and shoots the exciting tension of spy suspense films.
Reason three for recommendation: Immortal casting
A supermodel face of the heroine, Xiaobian did not appreciate it at first.
As the plot progresses, it is discovered that... What a fragrance!
Compared to the beautiful red face that can't be remembered, the heroine's face is really too flavorful!
Not only is it unforgettable, but it is also very suitable for the role, handsome and sassy! Instant turn to powder on the heroine!
Of course, in this play, you can not only see cheating, but also reflections on money, poverty, fairness, rules and other things.
In short, after reading it, you will have some "enlightenment"!
The tearing of dreams and original intentions, the collapse of faith, defeated the last shred of youth's attachment to the world, and plunged into the swamp of desire.
The choice is always in their own hands, life has never been a standard answer, and everyone has to pay for their actions.
