Preface
I don't know if you went to the cinema for the first time to watch it, which is known as the sister chapter of "Eliminating the Three Evils Everywhere", "Silent Killing"?
With the suspenseful, bloody, violent, brain-burning, large-scale, and strong reversal tone, netizens shouted: "Silent killing, it's really cool!" ”
On the second day of the premiere, the box office rushed directly to the box office of 70 million, firing the first shot at the box office of the college entrance examination season and summer file, and the results are still very gratifying!
Although "Silent Killing" is good at the box office, after watching it, many people have said:
"The plot is too chaotic", "I didn't understand it at all", "The director didn't treat the audience as a human being", "It's just a horror film stew" and a lot of other bad reviews.
To be honest, this film has starring Wang Chuanjun, Zhang Junning, and Wu Zhenyu, and there is nothing to say about the expressiveness of acting!
But in the arrangement of the plot, the director really wants to add too many things, and he has turned a suspense film into a collection of all horror, suspense, violence, blood, and movies in history!
Such a mixture and integration, although it looks very violent and refreshing, but it can't be savored.
Because you will find that it is full of details, but it becomes a "loophole", it is all a surprise, but it becomes a "flaw"!
Next, let's follow this "Silent Killing", which has just been released in theaters and has a very serious "word of mouth polarization".
Let's take a look at how this film made the audience crazy to buy tickets, and then it was crazy to complain!
The whole film is crazy criticized, and until the end, the suspense does not stop!
First of all, the editor tried not to involve too many spoilers, so that everyone can understand what this film is about.
It can also keep the freshness when everyone watches the movie for the first time, without affecting the viewing experience, leaving enough suspense!
Six years after "Manslaughter", Ke Wenli, who became famous in one fell swoop, brought this "Silent Killing" again.
In fact, "Silent Killing" was the first film directed by Ke Wenli that year, but because of the scandal of the leading actor and various force majeure reasons, this work was finally removed from the shelves and could not be released.
But director Ke Wenli feels that this story is very deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and hopes that more people can see it.
So, he gathered a new cast, rearranged the script, and directed another "Silent Kill", which was just released in the past two days.
The film begins with a story of school violence, Xiaotong played by Wang Shengdi, who is unable to speak because of a language barrier.
is being brutally bullied by the bullying girl foursome in the school, and uses glue to tie Xiaotong's whole person to the wall, including clothes and hair, and then uses a brush to apply glue in his mouth.
However, this scene was witnessed by Xiaotong's mother, who suddenly appeared, Li Han (played by Zhang Junning), who is also a school worker at the school!
Due to the humble status of their families, after Li Han rescued her daughter from the wall, she only cut off her hair and did not trouble the four bullies.
And afterwards, Li Han also told her daughter to swallow her anger and not to go to them for trouble.
But one rainy night after this incident, the group of bullies came to the vicinity of an abandoned building.
That night, several of them were suddenly attacked by a mysterious man with a hammer, and several of the bullies were brutally killed!
To be honest, the people in the movie theater at that time thought that it was Xiaotong's mother Li Han who killed these bullying girls.
Because the mysterious man was holding a hammer and wearing a raincoat, he didn't look like a woman, so from the beginning, the director let the audience fall into a brain-burning suspenseful reasoning.
In the process of subsequent case investigation, Lin Zaifu, a boys' school worker played by Wang Chuanjun, appeared on the stage.
is also a school worker, is also at the bottom of the society, and her daughter Huijun (played by Xu Jiao) is also studying in this school, and even suffers from campus bullying.
Starting from the line of father and daughter of the school worker played by Wang Chuanjun and Xu Jiao, the story began to become plump and bizarre.
It turned out that before bullying Xiaotong, Huijun had been bullied to death by the bullying girl group.
So, could the man in black who killed the bullying girl that night be Huijun's father, and Lin Zaifu, a school worker played by Wang Chuanjun?
So, the suspense point came to the school worker Lin Zaifu again.
Here, in fact, there is a plot detail, that is, the video taken by the bully girl with her mobile phone at the scene actually filmed the whole process of Huijun's death.
Since Xiaotong and Huijun are good friends, Xiaotong, who heard the movement at that time, was still holding a knife and preparing to go upstairs to save Huijun.
Unexpectedly, he was stopped on the spot by Li Han, the mother of the school worker, because Li Han was a person with a language barrier, he couldn't shout, so he could only watch Huijun being bullied to death.
And Xiaotong also saw the mobile phone that recorded the case, and after the incident, because the bully fled in a panic, the mobile phone was hidden by her.
And this mobile phone has also become the only breakthrough in the clues of the case, and the only clue connecting the whole incident, throughout the film.
Subsequently, Dai Guodong, a police officer played by Wu Zhenyu, became the "most just" existence in the entire film so far and began to investigate the case.
But what I didn't expect was that the son of the righteous police officer Dai Guodong turned out to be a perverted lewd man who lacked tutoring and liked to shoot secretly, and also played a role in the development of the movie.
Of course, there is also the pastor and principal Fang Juezhong played by "old drama bone" Jin Shijie, who also appeared one after another.
As the principal, he didn't expect his daughter to be the "little boss" in the bullying girl group, the worst person in the entire bullying group.
And the principal's knowledgeable, elegant and easy-going image from the beginning, with the development of the plot, reveals a sanctimonious and ugly human face.
The old drama bones are the old drama bones, and the extremely contrasting image reversal before and after brings a very good audio-visual effect to the whole film!
Male school workers, female school workers, police officers, principals, and the sons of perverted principals, many characters who seem to have nothing to do with each other, are gradually drawn into the whirlpool of this mystery.
The development of the case is becoming more and more confusing, and they are involved step by step in a huge and complex society.
But the truth that we will reveal later is very shocking and shocking!
At first thought, it was a little unbelievable, but when I thought about it, it was very reasonable to suddenly open up, and the mood that gradually sank because of its expression, it was indeed refreshing!
And the most prominent aspect of the story of "Silent Killing" is his getting better!
In the first half hour, director Ke Wenli showed the audience the tone and image of the film, and also pulled out several story clues and a number of key characters.
These story threads, perhaps in the first half of the movie, make the audience a little confused.
But as the plot of the story develops, it begins to become suddenly clear, and in the last half hour, the beginning and the end are connected, echoing the beginning, and there is an incredible reversal!
This is also the reason why the audience is still unfinished after watching it, and shouts praise.
But the drama "Silent Killing" can be said to be "Xiao He when you succeed, and Xiao He when you fail", because of such a plot setting, this drama is really on a road of no return!
The reasons for the audience's bad reviews are very consistent!
Why is it said that in the clever arrangement of the plot of "Silent Killing", success is also Xiao He, and defeat is also Xiao He?
The reason is that the director really told a lot of good details and a lot of things, but he didn't take care of the public and the older moviegoers.
It can be said that director Ke Wenli really racked his brains, using flashbacks and interspersed narrative means to arrange a lot of suspense and reversal things.
But this form is really like the current script killing, the logic is very ercareless, and unstable.
So after the older audience watched it, he couldn't get into the plot of this story for the first time.
Moreover, "Silent Killing" is not like "Manslaughter" back then, the story has a single-line narrative, step by step, the audience only needs to follow the plot, reason step by step, and finally the truth is revealed, and it is good to suddenly realize.
However, this time in "Silent Kill", the director really wants to do it perfectly and want to do his best.
That's why I added so many good details and very incomprehensible details to the film, but I thought about it very carefully.
But in the end, because of the complex and redundant details of the plot content, the other half of the audience's evaluation reputation of this film was ruined!
In this way, "success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He", is it more appropriate to describe the two-level reputation of "Silent Killing"?
