    Three and a half stars, the skills are very good, but I have too much to say about the boring and miserable life of a middle-class house slave. I really don't need to make a mystical science fiction shell like this and repeat it...

    According to the director’s answer at the meeting, the scenes of this film were copied from a newly developed but uninhabited ghost town in the director’s hometown of Ireland. The new but depressing green houses are exactly the same for every household, dull and boring. The original intention of the director was to use this film to describe the fear of young people: buying an undesirable house with a loan but not escaping, just like sitting in prison. The music selection is just right, echoing...

    After watching the movie, I looked at the information and found out that the director was originally from the editor of "Black Mirror". This story is almost an episode of "Yin and Yang Demon Realm" of the same or similar type. ) a bit crashed), the TV sense is full. It belongs to the kind of film that occasionally chasing a drama and watching an episode will be pleasantly surprised, but watching it alone will feel thin. However, the composition is neat and beautiful, and it also throws a...

    Using the dove to occupy the magpie's nest to satirize the cruel reality, it seems that it is not only China's national conditions who are imprisoned by the house and the next...

    The director got an interesting idea, and he added more weird settings and stylized designs and color schemes, but he didn't actually know what he was...

    You will waste an hour and a half of your life watching this movie. It's 2019, and the dimension of science fiction movies is still so shallow... It's disappointing. It would have been better to tell an existential story, a machine and a human story, or a mother/gestation/home story. In the end, it turned into watching the male protagonist dig a hole for an hour, the female protagonist chasing powerlessly, getting lost, and finally dying powerlessly. Change it to a 20-minute art short, and I...

    It is said that only if you have a house and a child can you live a happy life. As a result, your life will only be constrained by the house and troubled by your children. Day after day, you cannot escape. Life is like that strawberry, tasteless. And a deadline for this kind of life is-Forever (no end)-as the billboard shows! Until the child grows up, takes up your house, drives away your car, buried your people, and happily continues to preach this theory of happiness to people. If this is...

    What a good metaphor (in my opinion, it is already clearly stated). A few simple points: 1. When you watch it, you can think about it. Why is the real estate agency that attracts the male and female protagonists into the game? 2. Why can't they go out since they had room 9? 3. Why are two people more annoyed since having children? 4. Why do children become more indifferent when they grow up? 5. Why was the last person who collected the bodies for them the child who became cold when he grew up?...
