A lot of holes were dug, but not all of them were filled...

As far as the script is concerned, it's really cleverly conceived, and every plot point is very good. It seems to be a simple and conventional trend, but there is an unexpected reversal. I thought it was a split personality, a doctor's conspiracy, but I didn't expect this kind of broken The reversal of the dimension wall is really impressive, so at first after knowing the truth, I couldn't believe it, and the persuasiveness felt a bit far-fetched, but when I think about the overall plot, it can combine the treatment of hysteria and exorcism, and it can pave the way for the devil to come to the world. It is so unexpected, which means that the blending is relatively successful, the suspense is very strong, and he does not know how to dance, and he follows the plot all the time, which is very attractive.

There are some points in the film that are not filled in. Since the little boy is not sick, why does he have strong allergic symptoms when he comes into contact with the outside world? Why live in segregated special equipment and what is the purpose of it? Is it just to dig holes to create suspense points, just to deceive the audience and start the story behind? (The little boy was teased and bullied for wearing a space-separated suit. Air entered the space suit, but he did not enter any holy water, nor did he drink any holy water, so don’t talk about the little boy who has been tricked into drinking holy water every day, and it caught fire when he sprinkled it on his body. , is it okay to drink? So sulfuric acid can be drunk, right? Living in an isolation tent indoors, does it have something to do with the sun? The devil can't bask in the sun? He hasn't awakened yet! How can he be defeated by the sun?)

The girl who talks to the little boy is also the child of the devil. In the film, you can know that as a doctor (exorcist), she knows her existence, and there are clips where they intersect. So why don't you think of a way to break her up? From the perspective of the whole film, this girl is also a key figure in the achievement of the little boy. Since the purpose of the clergy is to purify the soul and eliminate evil spirits, why let her exist? (The devil cannot be defeated, he is invincible? Then what is God used for? So if a little girl becomes a devil, there will be no high-level clergy to fight against it? Those church leaders and the gods they believe in are just decorations, Only the devil dominates?)

This ancient castle has purified several people like little boys, and each of them has not become a normal person. Where did they come from and where did they go back, then it shows that the level of this exorcist is not enough. Or is their purpose just to kill such a child? Why not invite someone more capable? There is a photo in the film. It can be seen that there is more than one exorcism cleric. It can also be found that this group seems to be a new sect, and the logo is different from the orthodox big sect. So what is the background of this group of people? Devil Hunter? Or is there another purpose?

Is the devil showing mercy? Why do this? Purpose? Is it a continuous descendant? (Haha! Laughed!)

The mother said that she prayed to the devil to have a little boy, so the man is infertile, then this child, he knows it is not his own, and also knows his identity, why not solve it at the beginning, it is said in the film I have cooperated with the parents of the little boy for a long time, which means that the purification can only be carried out at a certain age and timing of the little boy. There is no explanation, why do we need to exorcise at this time, what are the benefits, and the success rate?

In short, this movie is still good-looking. If the script can be polished more clearly, it will really be a masterpiece, especially the little boy's acting skills, which are more recommended to watch...
