the very thought of you...
不好看不好看啦～～～～ 機動殺人(Taking Lives) 晚餐的時候看驚悚片真是自討苦吃，尤其是不怎麼樣的驚悚片，更是食之無味、棄之可惜的討厭。 原本擺在桌前色、香、味俱佳的燒臘，登時和片中血肉模糊的屍骨混為一氣，就此注定本片令人沮喪的調性。果不然片子才開始就被我看穿了誰是兇手，不知道該不該就此謝謝收看。然而，多心善良的我，總覺得偵探懸疑片不該如此膚淺，耐著性子多看一下，但殘念啊～就是這麼膚淺。 只要熟悉偵探小說結構的人應該都聽過諾克斯(Ronald Knox)的偵探十戒(Ten Commandments of Detection)，其中第一條言明，犯罪者多半是一開始就出現的幾個要角之一，此片了無新意地正是如此。反正角色沒幾個人，害得我一下就猜出誰是兇嫌，不好玩。 此片最悽慘的致命傷是角色刻畫和劇情。夾雜硬凹的的佛洛伊德和破碎的FBI辦案心理學，不深刻到了極點。許多角色可有可無，徒增影片的冗長不緊湊。許多橋段回頭看來，更是毫無意義，不知道女主角為什麼要和男主角有床戲（只因為她是Angelina Jolie嗎？），也不知道為什麼結局要靠女主角假裝懷孕來殺掉兇手。中間莫名其妙跑出來一個替死鬼（從頭到尾不知道此人為何要來找兇手），又安排兇手母親家中的密室有人跑出來（從頭到尾也沒解釋這有何意義）。偵探十戒中另一條曾說，偵探小說破案的核心必須靠「邏輯推演」，怪力亂神的東西或無關緊要的情節太多，則是冗長難看，本片就這樣而糟透啦！！！ 我常常覺得許多影片原本應該會很好看的。以本片為例，雙胞胎一人喪命、一人獲救，使得獲救者從此不願意承認自己的身份，而不斷靠殺人來更換角色。這樣的精神分析固然不新，但若能精巧拍攝，還是能拍出質感。像是人魔(Dr. Hannible)使用古典音樂搭配優雅的殺人，雖畫面噁心題材不new，光衝著那拍攝手法就值得一看再看。至少也該像是人骨拼圖(The Bone Collector)一樣出人意料之外，沒有變態、運氣，而是純粹的冷寫兇殘，那也是夠刺激的了。總而言之，許多不錯的小說故事，往往毀在二流的電影編劇手中，實在有些可惜。說不定有一天該試著自己導戲、寫戲，來扭轉此一亂象。 驚悚片佳作難求，我要少浪費點嘮叨的口水囉～～～

Just read all your articles and want to say "Hi"...
Sometimes I wonder if the romantic stories could really happen in real world. I don't know the answer. But I think I'm working hard to make a romantic story of my own in this real world. It's not easy but really worth to do it.
Love may hurt people, but it can heal people too~
Wish you can have a romantic story in real life too!
It's Eric again. And I am very upset when I saw the reply posted by myself. You know what I mean.
Sometimes working hard still can't get the expected result. It's just like what I experienced. She left me with the unacceptable reason and the painful result.
My life was changed dramatically. And sometimes I would think that I will not be able to fall in love again. I gave her all my heart, all my love, and at the last she still left me.
Sadness...Sorrow...Filling with my heart...
It's so painful that I am not able to take it. I still can't understand why this happen to me.
