Is this a suspense drama?

It took an hour and a half to read it, and the narrative was as plain as water.

I don't know if it's the hero and heroine's inability to control these two roles or the problem of the director's shooting. There is no acting skills at all.

From my personal perception, this film should be all kinds of small details to prove that there is indeed a virus outside, so that the audience can find surprises when they shake their bags later. However, due to the lack of detailed descriptions in the early stage, the baggage behind was too abrupt, and the final appearance of the military was even more inexplicable. Could it be that it came from the portal? ?

Also, another shining point of this film should be that the director wants the audience to know how the couple went from the original disharmony to the final interdependence through this experience. But this line did not unfold at all. How did the discord in the early stage (just because of not understanding?), the sudden emotional turn in the middle stage, and the dull transition to dependence at the end... Not only is the introduction unclear, but the narrative is also flat.

In conclusion, there is no point worth watching.
