Lee Ha-yeon is the wife of the heir to Ilsin Group and she has it all: a fancy penthouse, a luxury car and everything else. Lee Ha-yeon gets discovered poisoned and dead in a hotel room. Investigations take place under secrecy and out of ears from the media. But the case is mysterious. No prints of the murderer is found in the hotel room. There are not signs of broken entry either. If it was suicide, then why did she kill herself? If it was murder, then why would anyone kill her? The people around her are suspects. Lee Ha-yeon had a distant sister named Lee Ha-jeong. She's a reporter of a magazine and she has a camera that's so precious. She gets involved with the investigation to unsolve the mystery to her sister's death. Then the shocking truths uncover...it turns out that Lee Ha-yeon had been having porn chats online. It's shocking to find out that the daughter-in-law of a powerful and wealthy plutocrat family has been doing this. Her porn videos were also going around. Then there are the statements from the men she met online that she'd been sexually involved with them several times. Lee Ha-yeon was a quiet lady during the day but a sexual one at night. However, Ha-jeong reveals everything one by one. She finds out that Jae-gyu had been pressurizing Ha-yeon and there's a dark shadow that's been trying to get rid of her. In the end, Ha-jeong stands in front of the dark shadow but there's nothing to protect her. Only her camera. Ha-jeong has to uncover the truth behind her sister's tragic death and put her own life on the line.
这么个阵容拼凑这么个东西其实，反而冲淡了故事的表现力，150分钟的片长也没什么必要。
平庸到不知道说啥，除了结局呼应着开头留下一抹无法逃避的荒诞与无奈感，其余：故事很老套，情感也生硬，骗局没悬念，人物内在挖掘也不深，更重要的这还是个翻拍，就这？托罗是奥斯卡的爹？
8.2/10 这种故事必须是大起大落，必须是悲剧收束。影片的立项就注定了它的悲剧性。但我确实喜欢这种奇幻的故事，喷薄的张力。另马戏团的骗局总是让我想到费里尼，自然是互相造就。
7/5/2022 @ 高先電影院。關關難過關關過，btw女實習生係正既，難怪老闆會潛規則….
整体太缓了，跟这个故事最不搭的就是时长了，第一幕太长，不过这个色调是真的好好看，很有《致命魔术》那味儿…
当我看到电视广告"Cate Blanchette is the greatest femme fatale of all time"的时候就没办法不看这个电影了。第一个抱怨还是太长了。前后两段是两个电影吗。群星云集的，Bradley cooper其实不错。感觉是个警世片，几个教训：喝酒毁人生，不要和笑容冷艳颧骨高的金发美女打交道（适用于所有黑色电影），不管你怎么避免你都会最终变成你憎恨的父亲的模样。I still had a good time, along with 3 other people in the theater. Had a churro donut with ice cream. Absolutely delicious.
机关算尽太聪明，反误了卿卿性命。
不过这当然不能说电影不好看，这个卡司和制作团队在，再郁闷遗憾也不会是烂片的。尤其剧本本身就很好。只是太长了，真的太长了。第一部分的杂戏团的一小时完全可以浓缩成半小时的内容。所以这么一想，如果拍成电视剧，也许反而会更有看头——陀螺影片的美术本就无话可说，剧集保持电影感，拍成五六集最后的迷你剧，会很不错。可当最后的注意力终是回归于故事本身的时候，就还是觉得欠了点什么。
导演一贯喜欢的重口风😆节奏真慢。。上一个因为节奏慢没看完的还是一个明星的诞生😂
前情有必要交代，但确实不必拖得太长。陀螺可能是想找个机会展示自己的freak show美学——马戏团的帐篷和诡异陈设令人联想到魏玛时期表现主义经典之作《卡里加里博士的小屋》。当陀螺沉迷于此时，批判与猎奇的分野则趋于暧昧模糊。

本来还在琢磨为啥把背景铺垫得如此详尽，甚至到能说冗长的地步。突然灵光一闪—我看你个陀螺就是单纯想拍马戏团！(当然确实也很适合拍

“You don't fool people Stan, they fool themselves.”
但当叙事运转起来之后
真的很像一个mini series的节奏，karma, oh karma.
我觉得斯坦就是失败版的哪吒，物理上的弑父（神婆的酒鬼老公某种意义上也是他的父亲）并没有斩断其精神上与父权的联系，社会反而加重了他的“恋父情结”，磨毁了他内心的纯真，从他歧视并谋杀没有男子气概的亲生父亲、送毒酒毒死灵魂父亲且没有听他的劝告开始，他注定是重蹈覆辙的下场，结尾形成一种精妙绝伦的轮回。无法不想到《巴里·林登》，男人真的是被男权毒害了还不自知，被人拐了还帮人数钱。库珀虽然红脖化严重然而我依然可以（为了他的裸体吧），布兰切特表演最佳，什么叫气质美人啊.jpg
标准讽刺小品，老梗新拍，好人坏人都虚伪，有的结果来得早，有的结果来得迟。巴登这种角色随便演。
托罗应该有更为复杂的叙事方法，但他选择讲故事平铺开来，也没有选择如今年很多电影一样加上章节标志，人物也都是速写和粗线条的刻画。前一小时的很多镜头仅仅为了展示精致的美术，而结尾足够残忍。时不时出现的反法西斯战况也没增强现实感和年代感，整体更像精心编织的一个黑暗童话。
这个中译名差点让我以为豆瓣没这个片子。黑暗氛围全程压得不错虽然有些部分过于刻意，但后半截叙事感觉过于着急，开始走下坡路的部分未免也太突兀了
