The movie "The Devotion of Suspect X" is adapted from the well-known novel by Japanese deduction writer Keigo Higashino, and the two science geniuses in the original novel's moves and dismantling moves have always been the part of the movie that fans of the book are looking forward to the most, while at the same time, the two people sympathize with each other but have to be repeatedly antagonistic to the friendship of the two people, which is particularly heartbreaking.
Novels and movies are two completely different forms of art, with novels characterized by the ability to portray the psychological process of a character's change in a delicate way, but movies require the acting ability of the actors as well as the audience to experience it with their hearts. Obviously, the movie version of "The Devotion of Suspect X" has serious shortcomings in the presentation of the psychological process compared to the original novel. This is also a limitation of the movie art itself. In addition, in terms of substance, Keigo Higashino asked that each version of the remake should not be the same, so the Chinese version added the sonic generator to create car accidents and kill people in the bridge, which is also from Keigo Higashino's novel Galileo Trouble, it seems that Su Youpeng is indeed a very good understanding of Keigo Higashino's work.
There are also some interesting adaptations, like the names of the characters, Yukawa Haku became Tang Chuan, Ishigami became Shi Hong, and Hanaoka Yasuko became Chen Jing; there are more Chinese square dancers under the bridge; and the pact between Tang Chuan and Shi Hong, who began to ask each other questions when they were students, and so on. In short, Su did his best to Chineseize the Japanese scenes where the story takes place, making this Chinese version of the movie look grounded and unobtrusive.
In order to make the content of the movie's presentation fit the Chinese context, Tang Chuan, a professor in the physics department of the Imperial University, became Tang Chuan, a professor at the Jiangbei Criminal Police Academy, as ordinary university professors are not allowed to be involved in criminal cases in China. Zhang Luyi as Shi Hong in the original is not attacked Tang Chuan, this part of the adaptation is to highlight Shi Hong dedication, in order to protect Zhang Jing, so that his own crime to implement more thoroughly, but the author has a little bit do not understand, he a mathematical genius is how to know the sonic generator, Tang Chuan lectures when he was not at all.
In addition, the controversy is more a big adaptation is the granite Jingzi mother and daughter of the facts of the crime, the original granite Jingzi mother and daughter of the crime is undoubtedly intentional homicide, but after the adaptation of the mother and daughter of Zhang Jing suffered extreme insults and even life-threatening situations, so that the situation to resist can be ruled justified self-defense is a problem worth discussing. But on the whole, director Su Youpeng's adaptation is still successful, and the acting skills of several actors are also online, with the previous Japanese and Korean versions of the movie for comparison, the pressure this movie faces can be imagined. But this movie rhythm is tight, the plot is rigorous, some shots are also expressed very well, in most of the domestic film crude environment, can be such a work is not easy, as a fan we should be more supportive, less scolding, more tolerance, less criticism, so that the development of domestic film can be more and more good.
