The film has an interesting narrative structure. The two-and-a-half-hour film is composed of four chapters: revelation, exile, origin, and retribution. The various hints and connections between the chapters link up and down, in the form of flashbacks, a little bit for the audience to uncover The answer. Although the flashback format is no longer original and novel, the suspense created by the director one by one, which evokes the appetite and curiosity of the audience, is still the most interesting aspect of this film. The film is almost entirely dominated by male heroes in the western world. It rarely adopts a female perspective. With the evolution of the plot, Dakota Fanning's role has changed considerably from role experience to character modeling. Her role is fragile and extremely strong.

At the same time, the film embodies the director's Western perspective full of Italian taste. Guy Pearce's performance was well received. Fanning's performance in the film is also very good
