The film is full of moral challenges. Although it is dressed in science fiction, it uses a certain unknown to test people's morals, just like some similar themes of witchcraft and magic. The Arthurs had a good life, but they made mistakes during the economic downturn. However, these are all external manifestations. The true core of the story still emphasizes sin and punishment, morality and reincarnation like religion. The film shows a simple truth with complex stories and expressive techniques. The film uses a progressive narrative method to be confusing. The director Richard Kelly is very good at creating an atmosphere of horror and suspense. The performances of the actors also stand out and become hierarchical. Distinct.
