Nine years ago.
Nine years ago, the village of Midsomer.
还不错,剧情扑朔迷离,虽然最终的杀人凶手很好猜,但很多案件和线索交织在一起还不错~
又致敬了把惊魂记,错误的心理暗示,好多熟脸比如me,唐顿女管家
3.5;过程推进稳扎稳打,相当耐看,但谜底线索合拢有些匆忙粗糙,得出结论与之前信息并不太匹配,典型的破案靠“说”;另外,本季第一、第二集都有相当多的《惊魂记》影子啊!
这集的设定还是蛮喜欢的。从新案扯到旧案,加上附着在疑凶周围的出轨,敲诈,二次谋杀等等让整个事件扑朔迷离了起来。最后的动机倒是揭了商业时代的底。
旧案凶手非常容易猜到。这集布局倒是很工整。
有几个地方的推理还挺牵强的,这集熟脸可真多啊。
凶手在前半段很不明显,但在后边就还蛮容易猜到的。
1.巴纳比也会看表情破案,不经意的笑容暴露了凶手,但是通过him就推理凶手知道医生是男性不合理;2.最后凶手还算良知尚存,起码没对孩子下手;3.这是Horowitz编剧的四集中唯一没有采用追溯式案情的,线索布置比较均匀,节奏控制也很合理,不过旅馆来客和儿子陷害父亲两点剧情设置比较牵强。
