Just got the DVD and watched the whole movie. How to say this film is both a sci-fi suspense thriller (please note that it is not a horror film) and an environmental film. It tells the story of a mass suicide in humans caused by neurotoxins released by plants. This film is different from other feature films. The director does not specify the exact cause and reason of the toxin in the story (pay attention to which part of the TV station's expert discussion at the end of the film, and click on the "question") nor the solution. It may be to avoid being criticized by the audience as "typical preaching", which is also the highlight of this film. In short, if you are not a very patient person, or have no interest in sci-fi or don't waste your time in the cinema, it may disappoint you. The film may not do well at the box office, because any blockbuster film will include the typical advantages: excellent performances by big-name actors, twists and turns and novel plots, stunning visual effects, and thought-provoking ideas. and themes. This film is not as top-notch. As far as the theme and intention of this film is concerned, it is actually to tell everyone to be kind to our environment. But the story and logic are very lacking, with an inexplicable beginning and an inexplicable end, so most viewers may be inexplicable after watching it, which seems far-fetched and false. When everyone was still analyzing and wondering what the reason was, the film stopped abruptly. It may also be that the director deliberately left room for the audience to think. I think the director is going to release a sequel to deliberately stink everyone's appetite, and only give the reason for the problem and the final solution in the sequel? I don't know, the problem is left to the director, and the bell has to be tied to unlock the bell.
