A thriller that has been hyped since its release, the discussion is overwhelming, and the popularity is definitely not low. Fortunately, I resisted all temptations, blocked all relevant content, and skipped reading the article as long as there were those three words. Finally picked a time to make up for the next film, and it was quite slow to keep pace with the times.
It should be said that after watching such films, it is not difficult to guess the answer, but it is difficult to imagine the process if there is no explanation of the ending. The poor detective, who shot and drowned his wife of three children, was detained on the island. In order to get rid of the trouble of the truth, I weave a perfect and rich story for myself, so the days on the island are spent in the fantasy that circulates over and over again.
The responsible doctor didn't want to give up on him, and kept trying to treat his mental state, but it was good and bad, and it was easy to blink and backtrack. So the biggest "mystery" was revealed. It turned out that the process from the beginning of the film to almost the end of the film was a scene performed by the people on the entire island. From the moment he set foot on the island again, the scene began. This also explains that although I saw the answer before, I still wondered whether the scene that kept appearing was hallucination or real.
I really like the interpretation at the end of the film. In fact, after a long treatment, he has returned to normal, but once he is normal, he will fall into the memory of his children and the guilt of his wife, which will be more painful; instead of suffering in sobriety, it is better to move Craniotomy to remove memory, and even death. What he said to the doctor clearly showed this point. His choice was actually helpless, and it was not the doctor's fault.
After all, this film is not the route that the master is good at. It is also a good solution to keep the suspense until the end. For this type of thriller, it may be more appropriate to not break the suspense, or to say that the ending is more open.
