If the fire had never happened, the three smart and lively children of the Baudelaire family would have continued to live a happy and well-fed life. Who knows, misfortune would strike that day. A ruthless fire devoured the lives of their parents, leaving only a huge inheritance to the three siblings. At that time, the eldest sister Violet (played by Emily Browning) was only 14 years old, the younger brother Klaus (played by Lime Aiken) was 12 years old, and the youngest sister Sunny (played by Clara Hoffman) was pitiful. ), still a babbling baby. Because the inheritance can only be used until "the eldest child (that is, Violet) reaches adulthood," the three orphans are now sent to their distant relative Count Olaf (played by Jim Carrey) for foster care. Count Olaf is tall and thin, with cunning eyes, a pointed chin, and gray hair that is thick on both sides but barren in the middle. He lived in a dingy, dilapidated house with a tall tower and eyes carved everywhere. As an actor, Olaf often led the troupe on tour and was rarely at home during the day, otherwise he would stay in the tower - a forbidden place for children. In this high tower, an evil but almost seamless conspiracy is brewing. Olaf attempts to use various despicable tricks to kill the poor three siblings in order to obtain the large inheritance they inherited. No one can stop him. Carrying out evil plans. Also coveting the inheritance is the children's Aunt Josephine (Meryl Streep). It seems that there is bound to be an open and secret fight between Count Olaf and Aunt Josephine... However, the three children are not completely careless lambs who are ready to be slaughtered. Violet is brave and has clear thinking. Among the three siblings, she is the decisive leader. Klaus is also very smart, although he isn't very articulate. The younger sister Sunny speaks a language that only her elder sister and brother can understand, and the child also has a habit of biting. What will be the fate of the three children? Will the bad guys succeed in their plot? -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------◇? Highlights: children's books + movies adapted from Jim Carrey's children's books, one word When this topic comes up, many people may first think of the "Harry Potter" series. Indeed, it should be regarded as the most successful model. This movie is also adapted from the ninth installment of the children's book series "Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events", written by Mr. Daniel Handler under the pseudonym "Lemony Snicket" Written. Although we cannot yet predict whether Daniel will become rich and wealthy as a result of this adaptation, the influence of this series of books among readers is unquestionable. I believe that this experience of being adapted into a movie will definitely add fuel to the flames of "Baudelaire" and make it popular. Of course, according to Hollywood practice, this "adventure" of the orphans will not end easily, and there will be a second and third adventure story. Jim Carrey, with this comedy genius joining the cast, this movie is worth looking forward to. He plays the role of Count Olaf vividly, and his comedic talents are fully displayed in this film. He does an excellent job of creating an atmosphere of black humor, but most of Carrey's lines in the film are R-rated (expletive) lines. (However, it will definitely need to be edited during the post-production process.) The performances of the three young actors in the film are the most genuine. Among relatives with "murderous intentions", what should three poor and cute children do? Can we grow up safely? ◇?The anecdote about the release is very interesting. Paramount originally planned to release the film last year, but due to various reasons, it delayed it again and again, and it missed the prime Christmas release period. There is no other way, so just postpone it to this year. There are usually many major films released during the Christmas period. In order to avoid conflicts, Paramount decided to screen the film one week ahead of Christmas, that is, on December 17th. ?Paramount has its own little calculation. If it avoids the edge, it may be able to make a lot of money during the golden week at the box office.

◆Special effects: Baby Sonny is also crazy◆Special effects director Tom Peltzman and his colleagues produced more than 400 special effects shots for the film, most of which involved baby Sonny. This role was played alternately by a pair of twin sisters. Peltzman and the others shot 80% of the live-action footage, but under special circumstances they could only use special effects. The interesting thing about these two little sisters is that when they are eating dinner at the table, they sometimes hang up like puppies, using their seemingly tender little teeth. This is similar to the little baby Sonny. Coincidentally. But combining special effects Sonny with a real baby is not as easy as other works. To make "The Incredible Hulk", you only need to place a 15-foot green man. However, most of us are familiar with the appearance, skin, hair texture, clothing, etc. of babies. It is not that easy to fake the real thing. Peltzman's team decided to use motion capture technology, but another problem immediately arose. Usually when using motion capture, the special effects team needs to model the character's face, then input the computer creator's facial profile, and use the captured expression data to make the computer person move. Trying to get a baby to stay still and then make the desired expression is an impossible task. Therefore, the special effects team adopted a technology from Industrial Light and Magic (ILM), using a push-type modeler with soft rubber protrusions. After many attempts, they successfully created a computer facial model for the baby. Then they put the babies in a natural state and captured their various expressions as much as possible. Fortunately, they went as smoothly as ever. From aimless screaming to laughter, the Hofmann twins were very cooperative. . Give them a small blue stick, and they gain the ability to chew; give them their favorite cheese, and they gain the ability to move their jaws while chewing. Director Brad Shelberlin was naturally full of praise for them, but one of the twins was more present than the other, so they shot 90% of the scenes for her, but no one can tell which one it was. . ◆Style: Horror and Funny ◆The film uses Raymond Snicket (voice: Judy Law) to dictate the entire story, and screenwriter Robert Gordon (representative work "Dark Force 2") also makes it extremely entertaining , and the black feel of the film makes it feel like a "horror show". Sherbring's earlier "Moonlight Journey" also had a two-pronged approach, and the story of both bitterness and sweetness conquered many audiences. So, what does he have to say after this complete horror comedy? Violet, Klaus, and Sonny finally ended their nightmare lives. They learned to cherish each other and let family affection wrap their bodies and minds, and moved towards a new life through their own efforts. Perhaps this is the real theme of the film. Jim Kelly's exaggerated performance also weakens the darkness of the film and makes people less disgusted with the character. Emily Browning ("Darkfall") and Liam Aiken ("Road to Ruin") convincingly played a brother and sister, and the performances of the Hofman twins were even more rare. , Sonny's naughty moves and vague baby talk, coupled with small subtitles, often make people laugh. Meryl Streep also played the role of the super-phobic Josephine very well, showing the acting skills that a top actor should have. ◆Brief review: Want to compete with Potter◆JK Rowling's "Harry Potter" can be said to be the top work of children's literature today, and Daniel Handler's "Raymond Snicket" is not inferior either. This book, but this series (expected to be published in 11 volumes) is clearly classified as a cult. "Harry Potter" only occasionally reveals a bit of darkness, while "Raymond Snicket" has undercurrents everywhere. It is an out-and-out Grimm fairy tale of the 21st century. The directors drew a lot of inspiration from the first three films in the series - "The Bad Beginning", "The Reptile Room", and "The Wide Window" material, targeting the main audience of the film at children above preschool age. Brad Shelberlin once directed "Moonlight Mile". Although this time the adapted family drama involves a lot of dark themes - killing for money and destroying children, the imaginative art design , beautiful heterochromatic images and funny comedy scenes, the film successfully obtained a PG rating suitable for all ages. For those who are tired of saccharine family movies, "The Unfortunate Case of Raymond Snicket" is a good choice. Director Shelberlin even borrowed Raymond's words at the beginning of the movie to advise viewers who like flirtatious and sweet movies to leave. Photographer Emmanuel Lubecky (representative work "The Cat in the Hat") strongly prefers black, gray and brown colors, and artist Rick Hanlis (representative work "The Incredible Hulk") has a very imaginative design, which makes this look The movie shows an alternative taste. But in the end, please remember that the goal of this movie is the box office.
