I revisited this movie a few days ago, and I still like it very much. This movie is not a horror movie, but more from psychological pressure...

This is a Sisyphus-esque tragic reincarnation film about a triangular closed reincarnation. The concept of the film is clear, the simple closed loop is tightly shot, and every detail is intriguing. The biggest selling point of the film is its logic and looping plot, similar to the modern version of Western European mythology and fables. In addition to the rigor and emotional sincerity of the story itself, the details and the application of props are also very attentive. The movie is not terrifying with bloody scenes, but with its delicate plot structure and fateful twists and turns, the audience not only sinks into it. The peculiar reincarnation script structure in the film is undoubtedly the most attractive feature of the film. Its uniqueness is that there is no standard answer. It can be understood that the cruise ship is a time anomaly area, where the same group of visitors from different time and space stage a killing cycle, or it can be understood as a supernatural illusion generated by dead souls, which is quite "near-death". film" mood. The greatest value of this type of two-way interactive film is that each audience can continuously put forward their own opinions and enjoy the fun of thinking in the process of justifying their own opinions.

From the very beginning, the heroine's reaction was unbelievable, and the expression on her face was always different from ordinary people. This also shows that the heroine's expressive power is very strong and her acting skills are very good. And the dilemma that the heroine fell into again and again, like reincarnation in a dream, purgatory-like pain... I think it also reflects the single mother's failure to educate her son from the side, coupled with her bad faith , leading to this outcome.
