The story is actually very simple, but the director chose the most complicated way of narration, so I was depressed and even wanted to give up in the middle. The branch lines of the three characters will not be complete until they converge after the accident, their connections and the outbreak in the final room. If the plot line is missed in the middle, it will be incomplete, but fortunately, this meaningful ending makes the previous slightly chaotic plot development meaningful. .
In a nutshell, Paul actually thought that after the heart transplant, he was just the carrier of the new heart, so he let his wife go and went to find Cristina and Jack. He wanted to save them respectively, but Jack finally came to the door for relief. , When Cristina frantically vented her grief and hatred against Jack, Paul, who knew that his life would be soon, shot himself.

At that time, fate was ruthlessly deprived, so Cristina vented and Jack escaped. And the biggest sadness comes from Paul, suffering from a heart attack, he seems to have already accepted the ending of death, no matter whether it is good or not, he does not have too much joy after being born, and when he learns that he will die soon, He didn't panic too much, and in the end he chose to trade his own death for a better life for the other two. It is this kind of courage to know life without knowing death that brings greater emotional impact. Sean Penn's performance seems tepid, but the less changes, the better the forbearance and detachment of the characters, and the emotional tension behind it is also because of the lag brought by this calm and the subversive ending of the final conflict, forming a kind of unparalleled tension.
