How to evaluate the ringing phone calls? Is it worth seeing?

The plot of "The Caller" is very real and is a rational adaptation of the original work. The actors' acting skills are also impeccable, which is great! Very worth seeing!

"The Caller" was adapted from "Perfect Strangers". The reason why "Perfect Strangers" was adapted into a multi-national version is because the contradictions exposed and satirized in the film are the core issues in modern families and society* **Some, from the French and Spanish with similar customs and cultures to the faraway Koreans and Chinese, all face similar confusions.

Underneath the superficial comedy of "The Caller" is the alienation of human nature caused by the pressure of life. Escape or resistance are all in a matter of thoughts. The choice itself requires courage, not to mention sacrifice. A heavy price to pay.

The classic 3x2+1 combination in the original work is actually very meaningful. The conflicts between the three couples are mostly concentrated at the family level. Only the "single dog" escapes and stands on the side of social criticism. Looking at all this from a perspective, the Italian version is an honest fat otaku, while the Chinese version is the strong woman Han Xiao played by Ma Li.

From the very beginning of the film, Ma Li appeared in the familiar appearance of a "successful woman", but her expression standing on the rooftop indicated that she was hiding something that she did not want to tell others. At the subsequent party, Ma Li did not carry the comedy element. Other people's baggage and golden quotes were thrown out one by one, but she just caught them thoughtfully.

Changing mobile phones is the most critical drama point between her and Qiao Shan. This scene with a very obvious sense of design not only uses the classic "dislocation" to create jokes, but also uses misunderstandings to superimpose the effect.

In fact, the real meaning is to tear open the wounds in Han Xiao's heart - she is not having a heavy love affair with that Martin. Under the hard shell and strong position, she is an invisible female victim. The couple can only rely on extravagant clothes and exquisite makeup to force a smile. The pain they bear alone is much deeper than that of the other three couples.

Compared to the pure comedy, the tragedy of "The Caller" is more worthy of chewing. Seeing him rising from the tall building, watching him banquet guests, watching his building collapse, the wedding symbol on the ground floor was washed away With her marriage on the verge of collapse, Ma Li stood on the rooftop and looked at her with cold eyes. Neither her career nor her family were reliable.

The film does not clarify Han Xiao’s attitude towards the opposite sex and her views on marriage. Some of it is just ridicule from friends, but no one really understands her heart, which also makes her two outbursts in the eyes of others. It seems sudden.

Who would have thought that a "Mr. Han" who dominated the company would be sexually harassed and pursued with harsh words and photos? But she could only force a smile and secretly hide the oozing blood in her uniform.

Ma Li's indifferent and indifferent expression is another disguise to protect her truly wounded heart. In a crowded party, there is always one person who is alone and distracted, hiding in the depths of the corridor and sighing. These inconspicuous and subtle expressions are captured by the camera, which becomes the foreshadowing of the final explosion.

The long shot of the climax scene where the bottle is thrown, the heart is stabbed and the tears are shed, it is a woman’s resistance that is not willing to be humiliated - you men always shout that it is not easy to support a family, but who knows an independent woman? How much price do working women need to pay if they want to survive and develop in society?

Compared with the other three women at the party, they are more or less dependent on men and families. Only Han Xiao is a character who transcends marriage and carries social attributes independently. She arbitrarily invades the privacy of her mobile phone. The accusation in the space is more representative. Why should I play with you after get off work? This "you" is both a man and the boss.

From worried to relieved, although Ma Li’s scenes are not many, if you look closely, you can still find this psychological curve. Huo Siyan, Dai Lele and Xi Mengyao actually also have complicated hearts, and finally made a choice. But at least they are not victims of violence, and do not have to face this dangerous workplace alone. Only Ma Li sees through this, lights up a cigarette, and faces it with dignity.
