The Exorcist was recommended by a friend. At first, I read the description of religion and human nature in it, but I was attracted by the presentation.

The whole of it is like a normal American drama, and things are not that simple. At the beginning, the protagonist is an old man who has experienced exorcism for more than 40 years. The main line setting is not very novel, and the conspiracy emerges little by little. The bigger conspiracy, the more difficult The challenge, of course, hints at a few strokes along the way. Each character is full of stories to discover.

Until more and more people merge with the devil, this is no longer a simple exorcism movie, nor is it a general revenge, but full of political flavor, as if the devil is planning more things, Chicago just wants to tear it open , the infiltration of the devil into the church, what a great irony.

This film, walking on the edge, fortunately only chose one main line, I don't want too much, just a family and make a full article. The end of the first season didn't make you feel like it was just the beginning like other blockbusters, it made me feel like, wow, it's finally over, relieved.

Looking forward to the second season.

Let's talk about the difference between God and the devil. The devil is like a spoiled child, seducing human beings, possessing or combining, and the purpose is generally to open the gates of hell and release all the sinful souls blabla, the power is direct and powerful. On the contrary, God seems to be strict with iron rules - not directly involved, he wants mankind to save himself by his own power, and sees hope in mankind in the process.
