"Disappearing Her": Cut through the suspenseful cloak and glimpse the layers of people's hearts

A newlyweds came to Southeast Asia for a vacation, and when the two were shopping with great interest, their wife mysteriously disappeared in the fitting room, and the man returned to China without any results.

A few years later, the man came to Southeast Asia again, invited by a friend to watch a deformed show, and the performers on the stage suddenly woke up when they saw him, their mouths whimpering as if they were crying "help me".

This story is a local anecdote in "Disappearing Her" in which He Fei (played by Zhu Yilong) heard Chen Mai (played by Ni Ni) popular science, which sounds so terrifying, in fact, similar events in Southeast Asia are often seen in social news.

Some viewers said that the story told in "Disappearing Her" is easily reminiscent of the horror memories of Zhang Dongsheng taking his father-in-law and mother-in-law to climb the mountain, and he is a little afraid and can't resist the curiosity of wanting to watch it.

In the chaotic police station at the beginning of the movie, He Fei is extremely anxious to ask for help, hoping that the police will file a case to help him find his missing wife, but he is rejected again and again.

He Fei's visa is about to expire, and he must find his wife's traces before returning to China, but now that the police have not filed a case, and his strength is really small, at this time, Officer Zheng, played by Du Jiang, said that he could help him, and his mood was slightly relieved.

That night, He Fei had a hangover looking at the photo of his wife's back, and when he woke up, he suddenly had a woman in red (played by Wen Yongshan) next to his pillow.

The woman claimed to be He Feina's wife who disappeared and returned, but He Fei did not know this woman, and he clearly remembered that his wife Li Muzi's appearance and personality were far from the woman in front of him.

He called Officer Zheng to verify the identity of the imperson, and during the investigation, the woman's document information was checked correctly, and the details of the love were clearly remembered, and even the hotel service staff recognized her as the real Mrs. He.

At this time, not only did He Fei, who was deeply immersed in it, feel incredible, but the audience also began to speculate who this Li Muzi really was? Is his wife's disappearance a fantasy? Is it the sequelae caused by his medication? Or is the real Li Muzi someone else? And what is the purpose of the impersonator?

As He Fei's own investigation reached an impasse, in desperation, he met Chen Mai, a lawyer with connections in both black and white, and several times he expressed his true feelings and moved this barrister to help him find Muzi out of the predicament.

It was also at this time that Chen Mai "popularized" the bad behavior of some organizations that killed people, and at the same time deduced that he should have been targeted by a group of well-trained and cooperative criminal organizations, and the real Li Muzi was likely to be in distress or killed.

He Fei was deeply affectionate for his wife, and he never wanted to believe that his wife had "disappeared" for no reason, and insisted on finding out his wife's whereabouts, so he and Chen Mai began a long pursuit of the murderer.

But what happened next was even worse than the two expected, teased, followed, hunted down, evidence destroyed, secrets discovered...

In the exciting process of him escaping from her, the plot is reversed layer by layer, the plot is confusing, the further away from the truth, the more surprised he feels, even if someone guesses the ending and the true face of everyone halfway, it is difficult to hide the horror when revealing the truth.

I have to say that "Disappearing Her" is indeed an influential suspense masterpiece this summer, not only has novel angle settings, tight plot logic, but also the topic selection is in line with the current online audience's focus on the concept of marriage and group relationships, from the level of intention, topic degree and human nature torture are all at ease.

The total box office of the movie has exceeded 1 billion in six days of release, and there are tap water on all platforms, for a suspense movie, the enthusiasm of the public discussion is accompanied by the "spoiler" crisis, but the main creative team is not worried.

Even if the ending is spoiled, the surprise reversal in the process and the little fog solving still make the audience enjoy it, especially the strong contrast between the identity and personality of the people in the play, which can make the audience with gradually improved aesthetic taste and viewing requirements get a novel and satisfying experience, which is also the highlight and confidence of the film.

The main creative cast of the film is already strong, and Chen Sicheng, who has directed the "Tang Detective" series and supervised the "Manslaughter" series "The Golden Signboard of Domestic Suspense Films" Chen Sicheng serves as the producer and screenwriter, and the directors Cui Rui and Liu Xiang are also very powerful young filmmakers;

The fit between actors and roles is also extremely high, Zhu Yilong appeared on the big screen again after winning the Golden Rooster Award for Best Actor, his image in the film did not take the exquisite male route, but the rough man style in the later stage was not lacking in hormones, and several heavy scenes with emotional collapses were even more stable;

Ni Ni, who has short hair, is still an extremely attractive existence, whether it is crisp and neat workplace clothes or cool and stylish motorcycle suits are very heroic, who doesn't want to have such a best girlfriend;

Wen Yongshan has somewhat subverted the previous gentle and beautiful screen image, and has become a beautiful and crazy "sick and charming woman" who combines enchanting sexiness and scheming evil, and the scene of the beach showing weakness and the wine bottle smashing the head makes people sigh that beautiful women have a thousand faces!

There is no doubt that the people in these films are beautiful and pleasing to the eye, on the other hand, the color of the film also uses some bright colors with high saturation and visual impact, including the island where the story takes place often shines in the sun, and the halo of dusk is not as beautiful as the suspense film with a gloomy tone, so "Disappearing Her" was also evaluated by netizens as a "bright suspense film".

The "beauty" attached to the surface shown in these shots not only brings some soothing healing to the plot reversal of the nine-curved ileum, but also forms a huge contrast between these beauties and the ugly dark side of human nature.

The reason why "Disappearing Her" can become a suspense masterpiece with a good reputation is because it has a layer of unpredictable hearts under the suspense, the calmer the surface is, the more choppy the heart, and it seems that the layout that masters everything has long fallen into the game due to greed and inadequacy, and it is worth thinking about whether it is money and foreign things or conscience in the heart that "disappears".

The director once said that gender relations and female mutual help are the two most important themes of "Disappearing Her", so the film is not creating anxiety, but discussing how everyone should be honest in the marriage relationship and give each other more security.

At the same time, I also hope that the audience can reflect on what kind of self they are pursuing at the moment, and carefully choose every crucial life decision, whether it is marriage and friendship or career dreams. "Disappearing Her", which has both depressive and healing properties, should be something for everyone after watching it.
