A warm science fiction film with universal significance and connotation

Science fiction films can be like countercurrent colors or thirteens floor.

It is not necessary to discuss existence in depth. After all, it is easy to fall into the misunderstanding of unanswered questions. In a murder case in which you are the murderer but do not remember the murder you have committed, the murderer is your life mentor. What a good start for a tough guy. The camera can be shaken and edited like "Time Planning Bureau" to make people needlessly nervous. The best strategy can be like "Cold Wave in July" and "The Mechanic", so that revenge and confusion will slowly ferment in the characters, but the film I chose an inexplicable opening that I don't know why. Maybe when I created my intentions and gambled all my intentions on the back flip, I think making the front a bit colder (think "The Enemy") will only give more to the back flip. The impact, because the flip is basically the protagonist's doubts about whether he killed or not, but this clue of the protagonist was replaced by a few unnecessary time and space shuttle scenes, no doubt because some idiot asked for a gorgeous set... But these are not. Affecting the impact and drama level of the protagonist when he discovers the truth, it can be said that there is no warning, but it is reasonable and very exciting. With this stimulation, it is not important to discuss the proposition that exists. Does it have to be made like "Detonator"? Is it science fiction?

After watching it, I couldn't help but imagine that there were a few people who intended to make this German-style serious sci-fi, but the producer sighed and shook his head. In fact, it's very uncommercial to shoot like this, and the film is the best difficulty. There is nothing better than this 'experts watch the doorway, laymen watch the fun'.

In addition, there are many flaws in the film, which I recorded while watching:
1. There are no lines or scenes after the murder that make people feel that "all arrows point to themselves" that Hall said, at least not before he said this line.

2. Why do the police guess that someone has returned from the machine to reality? The technician said nothing.

3. There is only one sentence that hall used to be the foreshadowing of my friend, it is difficult to make the old love scene in the thrift store real, but considering that the audience is surprised to see the dead come back to life, there are also considerations for taking longer.

4. Why did the police officers let the protagonist go after the interrogation ended and after finding out that the daughter did not exist in the hotel? The character's temperament is too obvious, and the whole thing is to push the plot forward.

5. The relationship between the woman and the hall is not obvious. This is the case throughout the film. Although David's evil behavior can alleviate some of the abruptness, the sudden sex scene is still a bit speechless.

6. Pepsi's advertisement is also drunk, and the protagonist buys a huge bottle...

PS. Is the whole film thinking about why LA's crime rate is high before the inspiration comes? Re-shoot the film from the perspective of crime rate (seeing the richness of the film's connotation).
