British director Adrian Lyne, perhaps you have not heard much of his name. But when it comes to the ethical trilogy “Love You 9 1/2 weeks”, “Peach Trade” and “Infidelity”, I’m sure you’ll have a sly smile on your lips.
Yes, he is the most recognized director in the industry who can shoot “lust”. Even at the age of 80, Adrian Lyne is still very much alive. To a hot family thriller, burned the two main characters even in the scene are in love ……
Ben Affleck together with Anna de Armas, bring this strange and exotic – Deep Water
Husband Vic, once a chip designer for the military royalty. After early retirement, he has money and leisure to live an idyllic and free life. His wife Melinda, who is young and beautiful, stays at home full-time to raise her children. Together with the cute little daughter, this family of three looks not to mention how perfect it is. But well, the couple’s talk, and the way they get along, always let people vaguely feel some strange.
It was not until a certain party, Melinda ignored the people’s amazement, straight to a “fresh meat” …… answer to the puzzle emerged. It turns out that the couple had an agreement – as long as they do not abandon their families, Melinda can enjoy their open-ended emotions as they wish. Perhaps because of the old married couple, perhaps because Melinda too dazzling. All in all, such an “unequal treaty”, since the beginning of the story has been a given fact. Vic’s initial thoughts, we have no way of knowing. But with his friends talking and “caring”, it is clear that his state of mind is gradually deteriorating. So, when his wife’s new “friend” Joel comes to him, unwittingly, he tells him a joke, both true and false. Melinda’s last “friend” had been missing for months, and it was big news in the area. Vic told Joel, in a serious and mysterious way, that he had killed her. As a migrant worker, Joel was scared shitless and rolled up the next day, intending to stay away from the sick couple. Melinda is furious and demands that Vic apologize to both her and Joel.
Vic thinks it’s not right to make fun of the missing person, so he invites Joel over for a lobster feast. One of the two claimed to be allergic to lobster, and the other agreed that he didn’t like lobster at all. On the spot swollen Vic’s old face …… At the same time, gossip that Vic is a murderer is spreading around the town.
It was another afternoon tea party for local celebrities, and the old writer Leon half-jokingly said that given the nature of Vic’s work back then, killing a handful of people didn’t seem like a difficult task for him. Although the atmosphere was full of happiness, but in private Vic became more and more irritated. So, in front of Leon and Melinda, he invited Leon’s wife to dance a song. The childish attempt to vent their inner resentment in this way. After this battle, Leon is considered to have a relationship with Vic.
On the other hand, Melinda not only had no inner turmoil, but even found the old passion with Vic after a long time …… The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you want to do. But in a flash, Melinda has found a new “friend” – The handsome pianist Terry. This time she goes even further, staying out all night on the first “date,” not to mention. She also took Terry close to her at a house party held by her friend …… The first time I saw you, I had to go back to the house. On a rainy night, Vic drowned an unsuspecting Terry in the pool while the others were drinking in the house …… This is the beginning of the germ of evil, but also the title of the film “deep water” is the title of the eye. Of course, the highly knowledgeable and intelligent Vic is not an impulse. The bodies of the missing persons were found in other cities two days ago, and it is certain that they had nothing to do with Vic. His own position and the testimony of his famous friends were enough to dispel the police’s suspicions.
In this way, Terry’s death was temporarily closed by accidental drowning. But well, there are many skeptics. The first is Leon, who has been secretly watching Vic. Another one, naturally, is the loss of “friends” again Melinda …… She pretended to be unharmed, but behind the scenes she joined Leon in hiring a detective in the hope of catching Vic in the act.
What Melinda didn’t expect was that Vic, the “lover” who had been so obedient to her, was not as innocent as he appeared. In fact, he has been spying on his wife for many years, so he easily found out about the detective. When Melinda sees that her plan has been foiled, she simply breaks down and finds a new “friend” – an old classmate she hasn’t seen in years, Tony the architect. This time, Vic was more decisive. The day after we met, he took Tony to the deep woods on the grounds of building site selection. Then he casually pushed and lightly reached a double kill. In order to avoid things being exposed, Vic tied a few rocks to Tony and hid the body under the stream. Unfortunately, this scene just happened to be hiking in Leon’s eyes. Things have come to this, Vic had no choice. He had no choice but to kill the nosy old man …… At the same time, Melinda accidentally found Tony’s wallet in her husband’s garden.
This obviously means that Vic’s previous crimes are all nailed down. At first, Melinda was terrified and packed her bags with the intention of escaping with her daughter. But after seeing her daughter sneak the suitcase into the pool, she was instantly relieved ……
So, when the “successful” Vic returned home, Melinda was sitting on the stairs with her usual smile to welcome her. A “perverted” couple, or a “perverted” family, has finally purified itself from within …… beautiful classical shots, and the tumultuous desire, indeed It is quite a master style. I can see that Adrian’s master is trying to use extreme exaggeration to insinuate some of the insoluble difficulties in marriage.
Unfortunately, the character arcs of the two charismatic characters themselves are really too uninformed. It is difficult for the viewer to empathize, not to mention that it is a good love thriller teased into a “human confusion behavior reward” …… If not for the sake of Anna de Armas, the evil king really can not boast.
