1. The advantage of planning is that the setting is interesting. I saw a theory before that the "choose one person to die" marriage advocated in the old times is so difficult to achieve in modern times. One of them is that the development of modern medicine has extended the average lifespan of human beings. The "time" of human existence in old and modern times has changed. Time shapes the lives of human beings. The planning of "Old Age" can make the audience more aware of the existence of "time".

2. The disadvantage is that it deviates from the audience's viewing interest. 1⃣️ is that the motives of the characters deviate from the logic of a normal human being. A group of people are placed in a different space, shouldn't the top priority be thinking about how to get out? But what we see more in this film is that the characters spend a lot of time to understand what happened, and the motivation to go out is not too strong. Maybe the creators think the focus is on the display of wonders in this setting. 2⃣️The shooting is normal. It can be seen that Shyamalan is not shooting blindly, he is shooting with a design, but there will be a lot of "here I want to see a little more complete" "here, hurry up and cut the camera to him", Shyamalan used a lot of only shots. Partial or open space scheduling without a fixed screen main body, I personally feel that the experience is not very good, I think it is too slow, and I will not give you the amount of information I want to get.

3. If you like to watch movies with strange settings like me, then this is still worth watching, at least it can basically immerse you in the story.
