The importance of being involved

I watched this film in a quiet midnight wearing 3D glasses. This particular scene, in hindsight, is indeed very suitable for this film. After the film started, the immersive experience made me follow the emotions of the male protagonist and explore the whole story. A big feature of this film is its non-linear narrative. Among the recreated memories, there are also plots of reappearing memories, layer by layer, layer by layer, layer by layer, which will make the audience from God's perspective very unaccustomed. But if you assume the role of the male protagonist, this is his process of finding the truth, how to approach the truth step by step, and how to enter the heart of the female protagonist step by step.

Seeing what another film reviewer said, it was really amazing when the heroine appeared for the first time, opened the door and zoomed in on the camera in the backlight. There is also a scene where I went to the heroine's house for the first time, and the strange smile of the heroine carrying the protagonist directly made me chill from the spine to the back of the head. The portrayal of the characters by the male and female protagonists is very thorough and in place, the kind of love, that kind of entanglement, that kind of trust, and the performance is vivid and vivid.

The whole movie is actually not a sci-fi, but a love drama in a sci-fi coat. The hero and heroine love each other, discover the conspiracy, find the truth, trust, and finally the tragic ending is what the director wants to present to the audience. The interpretation of the hero and heroine is successful. However, the non-linearity of the narrative leads to the need to immerse into the male protagonist's character in order to fully appreciate the significance of the plot design. To a certain extent, it can be said that it affects the viewing effect. Maybe it will be much clearer if you brush it a second time. Other basics can be said to not have much bright spots.
