Sensory game

This movie has the same meaning as the "Multiple Dreams" of "Inception "It's very clean, but the film is disgusting; "Inception" is clear and easy to understand, but the film has too many metaphors, seemingly understandable, and looking irritable.

As for the number of layers in the film, I think there are five layers.

In the first stage, the heroine is stabbed at the scene of the Z game; in the
second stage, the hero enters the game for the first time.
In the third stage, the hero and heroine enter the third stage when they are affectionate, where they kill the Chinese waiter.
In the fourth stage, the final shootout, the heroine kills the hero.
If the last scene is still in the game, it is the fifth stage. If it is reality, then the above four layers are the game world.
The open ending
PS. The heroine looks very much like my former friend (the only one, when single).

    Why does it feel like this director is always talking to himself? The whole movie is like a frigid, but the details of the Chinese restaurant are surprisingly good

    When the line between virtual and reality blurs, reality becomes scary. . . .

    Allegra: That's not funny.

    Ted: Sorry.

    [lowers the gun]

    Ted: But you know, I do feel the urge to kill someone here.

    Allegra: Who?

    Ted: I need to kill our waiter.

    Allegra: Oh. Well that makes sense. Um, waiter! Waiter!

    [she calls over waiter]

    Allegra: When he comes over, do it. Don't hesitate.

    Ted: But... everything in the game is so realistic, I-I don't think I really could.

    Allegra: You won't be able to stop yourself. You might as well enjoy it.

    Ted: Free will... is obviously not a big factor in this little world of ours.

    Allegra: It's like real life. There's just enough to make it interesting.

    Ted: [looking at approaching waiter] He's too nice! I won't do it.

    Chinese Waiter: What can I do to make your lunch more pleasant?

    Ted: I found this in my soup.

    [holds up gun]

    Ted: And I'm very upset.

    [shoots waiter]
