Warm and beautiful suspense film

Using the memory of 8 minutes before death to find clues to solve the case, this idea has been used in the American drama Fringe, and it is not new. However, in the setting of this film, it is also necessary to use people whose bodies are dead but their brains are still alive to enter the time and space established by this memory, which leads to many human entanglements. The movie really does a good job of it. In contrast, the technical explanation is less, and there are some things that don't make sense, but compared with the beauty of the film, these flaws are not a big problem.

Yes, I think the film is beautiful and heartwarming, even though it has a lot of suspense and tension. The warmth and beauty of it is that, in the end, everyone gets what they want (except the terrorist, of course). The protagonist and his father reach an understanding and find love in the new world. Her girlfriend and fellow passengers survived and continued to live happily, even though they didn't know they were going through a disaster. The female operator obeyed her conscience and disobeyed the orders of her superiors, but she was not punished because of the influence of the new world. Even the inventor of the source code, the ambitious cripple, was hopeful and high-spirited, although his success eventually bypassed him. In a movie, everyone gets their own way, can you say it's not warm and beautiful?

The long shot at the end was very moving, the hero and heroine kissed affectionately, and the faces of the other passengers were solidified with cheerful smiles. Although it was a bit deliberate, it really warmed my heart. It adds a nice note to this warm and beautiful film.

ps After being reminded by a friend, I remembered that Sean, whose body was occupied by the male protagonist, was nowhere to be found. Recall that the film actually revealed such information that the heroine was originally somewhat dissatisfied with Sean, and the relationship between the two was far from intimate. The hero replaced him and finally completely conquered the heroine, maybe it helped him get what he wanted.
