This should not be a movie that everyone likes. It has a very strong religious metaphor, and the style is extremely dull and depressing. The parts with music are basically in line with the plot, and most of them are harsh to remind the sudden change of the plot. But the two leading actors are really amazing, especially Colin Farrell, who portrays the roles of an emotionless, step-by-step doctor, husband, and father very vividly. The family's calm but restrained dialogue reminds the audience of some sort of abnormal abnormality. The director also handled the film structure very cleverly. About two-thirds of the time, you can't guess what happened, and you can't predict the general plot. The suspense of the whole film is locked by a lot of dialogue. The ground is under control, yes, it has to be watched intently, because the dialogue is important.
It is said that the metaphor of the holy deer is that the purest person in the family will die, and the use of songs related to the Bible in a few fragments also implies that the film contains religious metaphors. There are also discussions about whether blood debts are fair or not, just like the moment when Nicole asked the teenager: Why should I and my children pay for my husband's mistakes? And the juvenile who is the victim thinks there is nothing fairer than this. In addition, the failure of patriarchal patriarchy is another highlight of the film: the overwhelmed father chooses one of the two children to end their lives in order to save the family, but he does not know which one is better and goes to school Ask the teacher about the child's performance.
Although the final father's choice was random, the purest member of the family paid the price. So whether it's fair or unfair, it's up to the audience to judge for themselves.
