The above criteria apply to this movie. The puzzles are well arranged and the suspense is enough. Although the middle plot is occasionally not compact enough and the rhythm is a little procrastinated, the final part of the puzzle is done well. It gathers all the previous clues like a puzzle, and then turns around, End. Well done.
