Nowadays, video games are a hot topic, and virtual reality is a hot topic. It is precisely because of the popularity that such types of films are not uncommon. The actors' blunt performances and second-rate props make the film more ordinary. Looking at the overall, the subject matter is popular but ordinary, the picture effect is ordinary, the soundtrack - I don't feel the soundtrack, the performance is ordinary, the dialogue is ordinary, the props are ordinary, and the editing is ordinary. The plot started to get a little bit more involved, but it only got better. This film is not like a master's work, but like a second-rate thriller. At the end, people can't tell the difference between the game and the reality. Perhaps it is most meaningful to explore the master-slave relationship between self-consciousness and virtual consciousness.
