Some details are still a bit far-fetched, such as why should the camouflage coat be changed all the time? Wouldn't it be possible to hide your identity with just one fixed color? I can understand that the director just wanted to show that in the last few scenes, the Actor has gradually been unable to distinguish the realistic punchline, but this setting is really a bit far-fetched and very confusing... There are many similar places, but see There is nothing wrong with thinking about the logic of the plot after the film is complete. Actor was not very sober from the beginning, his immediate boss was actually Donnie, his dealer girlfriend who he mistakenly thought looked like his own wife. In fact, Donnie is just soft-hearted for the Actor's good, and doesn't want him to continue to be used by the government to investigate the details of the New Path Company (that is, the last Recovery Center, the producer of blue flowers, which is the
The initiator of Substance D) However, Donnie's colleagues don't care about the actor's life or death at all, they are actually forcing the actor to take Substance D to be able to mix into the Recovery Center so as to take the opportunity to investigate the details of the New Path. It seems that the routine of the commercial plot below meticulously depicts the actor's thoughts and thoughts of the whole incident. It is the biggest attraction. There is a bit of the shadow of Gang Zuo news in it, but it greatly weakens the use of OV. Personally, I think it is a good thing. But I personally don't like this kind of script design. Because there are too many suspense settings, the frequency is too fast, and the speed of unlocking is delayed too much than the suspense, which leads to a lot of troubles caused by the logic problems of the plot, which makes people feel I'm very tired and can't concentrate on feeling the atmosphere created by the movie. Instead, I spend a lot of energy on solving doubts and plots, which is a bit of a business brain-burning... However, the core is an author's movie, so The configuration is estimated to be difficult for ordinary spectators to accept, and it is also difficult for movie-oriented audiences to buy it. (Just checked, budget 8.7M$, Box office only 7.7M$, sure enough.)
