I saw this film in a bookstore where Hani and I went to see the Greek exhibition at the Louvre. At that time, I told him noisily that I would play it when I got home because I wanted to see it.

I thought that Sophie Marceau would at least be eye-catching. Just like the last time I watched her in "The Mistress of Louis XIV", I only had an impression of her beautiful figure and eyes, her acting skills, or Want to give her another chance.

Phantom of the Louvre, such a beautiful name, is eerie and terrifying yet romantic. At first I covered my eyes and peeked through my fingers, but later I lost all fear. Honey and I laughed a lot at the end. The originally terrifying Egyptian chief priest finally obeyed and ran to the French woman to be saved, and he even spoke in French. Sweat. In the end, I couldn't help but laugh because the souls in all the paintings and sculptures flew out and ran away. Oh my god, weren't they saved using the ancient Egyptian method? It is useful for all ghosts. And what were those souls doing before? .

I would like to add that the male protagonist is too short compared to the female protagonist. Although he is quite handsome, he is only as tall as me, hehe. "Phantom of the Louvre" Film Review 2

The beautiful girl Lisa (played by Sophie Marceau) lives with her grandmother in the building opposite the Louvre Museum. The renovation project of the Louvre caused frequent problems in the old building, so Lisa met the kind-hearted electrician Martin (Frédéric Diefenthal). A certain construction accident accidentally opened up the Louvre tunnel and the elevator room of the building. Therefore, Lisa and Martin entered the Louvre at night and walked into the laboratory where scientists studied ancient Egyptian mummies. Lisa looked at a mummy, but unexpectedly, the ghost in the mummy entered her body. From then on, Lisa was driven by the ghost to wander around the Louvre every night, searching for ancient Egyptian amulets. The curator invited the experienced retired police officer Frack (Michel Serrault) to investigate the ghost incident in the Louvre. Glenda (Julie Christie), an Egyptology expert from the UK, also Very helpful. But can everyone's efforts really subdue the powerful ghost in Lisa's body? "Phantom of the Louvre" Film Review 3

I watched this movie when it was broadcast on CCTV-6. I went to watch it entirely because of Sophie Marceau's appearance and my love for French movies.

The plot itself is not very outstanding. To put it bluntly, it is not even as interesting as the shoddy commercial horror movies in Hong Kong. Because even the minimum suspense has not been created, you can guess what the ending will be from the beginning of the movie. This is a tragedy of the movie.

As for the main actors, I regret to say that they basically don’t have much acting skills. On the contrary, the supporting roles of the guards feel more like acting. Sophie Marceau's expression was numb. I wonder if it was the director's special hobby that prevented me from sensing her beauty qualities from the beginning to the end.

However, the movie itself is not dead. The best thing about this movie is the cultural differences. Classic Western horror seems to be about snow-sucking ghosts, zombies and the like. However, this movie uses Mummy as a carrier, which personally feels a bit mysterious. After all, the "Chinese ghosts" we have been exposed to since childhood are zombies, resentful ghosts, etc. This also reminds me of Hong Kong's "Five Teenagers Who Scare Ghosts". The subject is also a mummy, but it is basically incompatible with the characters. This is the cultural difference.

In addition, a series of unique French scenery such as the Louvre can also give people a visual enjoyment that is different from Hollywood commercial films. "Phantom of the Louvre" Film Review 4

Adapted from Arthur Bernard's legendary novel "Belphego", starring Sophie Marceau.

Lisa and her grandmother depended on each other and lived opposite the Louvre. One day, there was a sudden power outage at home. Repairman Martin arrived and quickly solved the problem. The grandmother fell in love with the young man and deliberately set up a pair of young people. However, she died suddenly because she smoked and drank a lot of alcohol and tobacco against the doctor's advice. On the day of the funeral, Lisa's shop was notified by the lawyer to close down and relocate. Devastated, she hid at home alone and encountered another power outage (actually, it was all thanks to the ghost Belphegor). In the power distribution room, as soon as Martin fixed the fault, a domestic cat came into Lisa's field of vision. They followed it and unexpectedly discovered that the building's renovation project had accidentally opened the elevator room to the museum.

They were discovered by security guards and decided to escape separately. By accident, Lisa broke into the laboratory where scientists were studying ancient Egyptian mummies. Out of curiosity, she lifted the white cloth covering the mummy's head. As a result, the flashlight exploded, and she was targeted by ghosts ever since. So, every late night, he put on a robe and a mask and wandered around the Louvre. Martin, who loved her deeply, noticed Lisa's abnormal behavior and began to follow and protect her.

Finally, one time, the security inspector hired by the Louvre caught Lisa.

He didn't believe in ghosts, so he thought it was man-made evil deeds, but he didn't expect that tragedies would continue to happen. Fortunately, through the joint efforts of Martin and scientists, they figured out the life experience of the Phantom of the Louvre. It turns out that the ghost Belphegor, who was a great prophet and a member of the royal family during his lifetime, was killed. There is neither an amulet nor a sun boat in his tomb. According to the records in the Book of the Dead, there is no way to cross the River Styx, the River of Forgetfulness. Moreover, because the ring with his name on it was missing, Osiris, the god of the underworld, could not find him. Belphegor had the ability to see into people's hearts and was considered a devil by the ancient Egyptians.

Martin and the scientists arranged a retro ceremony in accordance with Belphegor's wishes. In the prayer of the female scientist, "The sun god defeated the darkness and raised the sun. When you fall asleep, it is Nebumeis. When you wake up, you are still Nebumeis. You...will have eternal life...", the ghost finally left. He took the tortured body of Sally, rushed out of the Louvre and flew to the River Styx. At the same time, the undead attached to other ancient Egyptian artworks also left with them.

All this can only be seen by Sally who was reborn after the disaster. She showed a mysterious smile.

I like Egypt and the legends about it, so no matter how ridiculous the fabricated stories are, I will happily accept them. What's more, Sophie Marceau's appearance and figure remain the same after 20 years of acting. Her interpretation of Belphegor is indeed a "phantom" shadow.
