Unacceptable endings and randomly dropped IQ

The ending really makes people want to smash the wall, which is too scribble. The previous plot settings were pretty good, and I was still looking forward to the last few minutes, what will the director and screenwriter bring about a shocking reversal. It turned out to be just such an ending... A happy ending might as well let the heroine keep losing her memory and reincarnate again.

Why hasn't anyone discovered Ben's abnormality for so many years? Does the doctor have no basic information about Ben? The hostess told her girlfriend to "help me". When it is known that the person who lives with the hostess is not Ben, I can't make a call. Why don't you call the police?

And the cut traces of the group photo are too obvious, right? If it is so clear, the heroine will only find out at the end? There is one last thing. If the doctor is not the boss in the end, don't give so many shots. If you feel that he is in a pit, you can't comfort the hostess and leave quietly?

    Some people compared this film to "Gone Girl". Still too far, although the latter, by David Fincher's standards, is not much better. But this movie was too anticlimactic, and it should have been designed to reverse in the end, but it ended like this. The first 90% are extremely gloomy, and the tone suddenly brightens at the end, for fear that the audience will not know that the bad guy has been defeated by the good guy.

    Suffering from this kind of disease is so terrible that no one really believes it, but fortunately, the ending is touching. The duel between the male god Colin and the goddess Nicole is wonderful!
