The rhythm of Robert Zemeckis’s movie is superb. Which gives the movies a lot of power and meaning. Rhythm in life is more than half of the meaning. Every moment of your life is an opportunity to enjoy the rhythm. Even the absolute mundane can be meaningful given the right rhythm.
Always remember: life is not about what we do, but how we do it. The purpose of life is to do things with a rhythm, not to necessarily accomplish certain things.
The story is essentially about how a woman seeks the truth about her past.
1. OPPORTUNITY is something happens to make the protagonist view everything from a different perspective.
2. CHANGE OF PLAN is when she takes initiative to seek the truth, including being forced to confront the truth by the husband. Just before POINT OF NO RETURN, she knows what is wrong by confronting with the neighbor.
3. At the POINT OF NO RETURN, she is reminded of her past and gets the identity of the ghost.
4. HIGH STAKES is when she goes to find the mother of the ghost and brings its hair home so that she can be hosted by the ghost. Then she remembers everything about her husband’s infidelity.
5. EVERYTHING IS LOST is when she has given up searching for the truth and burns the hair.
6. FINAL PUSH is when she brings the box from the lake and his husband shows who he really is.

很hitchcock,特別是浴室求生一場的剪輯。鄰家女人的線索僅作為隱喻,在這種類型影片中不常見,一般往往會發展成一個關鍵情節。但我反而很喜歡這樣的設置。
很多年前的了,当年看的时候,那个时代,这部片子绝对值5星,现在大家口味重了,这部很经典
6/10。揭示真相版《深闺疑云》,夫妻间的莫名猜疑与典型的线索追踪电影混合而成,导演没少偷师希胖,对幽蓝光的运用、动作复杂的摄影机转场、悬疑景别的设置(浴缸快溺的交叉剪辑、捡电话的低角度)。但谜底并没指向希胖钟爱的双重人格,而是顺应了《第六感》后人鬼殊途的潮流。整体没新意,不看也罢。
一个亿的投资花在哪里啦?演员的粉底还是烟饼呀?不知道美国编剧折磨中产阶级中年独女的习惯是什么时候开始的。
你在开玩笑吗......
悬念的铺设和结尾较为容易猜想到的走向都是没有太多惊喜的,倒是本片中各种镜头语言的运用确实是很多恐怖类型的片子可以好好学学的。高潮部分女主的尖叫和最后尸体还魂的确凿其实并没有必要,回归心理精神照样能说好故事。
几段浴室戏挺抢眼的,呼吸都快停止了。故事在米歇尔最后浴室挣脱到此多好,非得后面加一段血债血偿。福特演反派确实挺意外。多年之后再看觉得前面有些冗长没必要。
鬼片就鬼片,能不能别扯恐怖片?本以为是正经悬疑惊悚,好家伙看一半通灵都出来了。又长又磨叽,邻居那条线就占了一半时长结果只是个幌子,快一小时才进入正题。节奏感太差
轮番进来吃东西,聊天,看的三心二意的
导演是恋足癖吗?这片子菲佛的脚部特写未免太多了吧?两个主角都发挥出色,就是这剧情有点滑稽,吓人的点过于依赖一惊一乍的音效,但有几个利用特效/光影制造的镜头还是很惊喜的,譬如菲佛在浴缸乍变死尸脸还有福特在车子后面阴影中突然冒出。75
居然还惦记上人家女儿了 禽兽阿
不知是不是因为当时教室的音效好,是我至今看过的最恐怖的影片了
最讨厌戴着悬疑的帽子,拍的鬼片了。
一部很好的电影,菲佛和福特的表演很到位,原来福特也可以饰演这种角色。。
很久以前看的了。比较平庸,没啥不好也没啥好。。。
经典,我喜欢的女演员,技术上太值得学习了
让哈里森福特演个杀人犯有点过分。他那么帅那么迷人。哈哈哈哈。这部电影当年看的时候吓坏我了。可以说又是恐怖片又是鬼片。女主应该不爱老公吧。从头到尾都在质疑怀疑老公杀了人。我还一直以为是她错怪了老公。听说这部电影是罗伯特泽米吉斯拍摄荒岛余生期间抽空拍的。大导演就是牛。随便拍的电影都这么惊悚吓人。
7.0/10 分。节奏缓慢,所有的精彩都在最后十分钟。。。
还行吧,邻居太太那段太牵强了吧,强行让女主以为邻居杀人,感觉直接从浴缸见鬼影那里开始也行。大部分惊悚镜头都能预料到,不过最后那里挺紧张的,感觉冥冥之中一切都已经被女鬼安排好了
这个片子其实可以不用鬼来做主题,进悬疑的部分加剧情就可以成为一部经典。哈里森福特的演技绝赞,调查过程安排也不错。女主的失忆和项链盒子等等,都是环环相扣,很好的片子。
