This film is based on the short story of the same name published in 1953 by the famous science fiction writer Philip K. Dick. Although Dick’s works are not many, they are undoubtedly one of the most famous veterans in contemporary science fiction. The proportion of his works being adapted into movies is very high. Several works that fans are familiar with include "Blade Runner". , "Total Recollection" and "Minority Report", those who have watched these movies should know that the memory of the protagonist has been erased or tampered with in these films and the film. Ignorance and knowledge are known. And the unknown, these subjects related to human brain memory are Dick's favorite creative inspiration. The film is directed by the famous Hong Kong action film director Wu Yusen. He began to break into Hollywood from directing "Ultimate Target", and since then filmed "Broken Arrow" starring John Travolta, "Change Face" starring Nicholas Cage and John Travolta, Films such as "Mission Impossible II" starring Tom Cruise have brought him the reputation of "Billions of Box Office Directors" and become one of the most lofty Chinese directors in the Hollywood film industry. Classic lines: 1. If you show someone their future, they have no future. (If you show someone their future, They have no future.) 2. Taking away the mystery of the future is equivalent to taking away hope. (If you take away the mystery, you take away hope.) 3. If you take away the mystery, you will miss the wealth at your fingertips. (If you only look where you can't go, you will miss the riches below.) 4. Some of the happiest things are inherently wrong.

In line with all the commercial films, sportsmen, beautiful women, high IQ, crime, fighting, speeding, bad guys die, good guys hold beautiful people back + huge bills It's a very serious commercial film, don't ask too much, but the actors perform very rubbish soundtracks and rubbish scene handling, and the general story tells us that we should not only have brains but also skills.

The story as a whole is well connected, but a common problem with movies adapted from novels is that sometimes the explanation is unclear... In the end, the ending of holding the beauty and returning to the money is not bad, hahaha~
