Actually, I have a lot of doubts about the plot setting of this movie. The story never explained how the twenty-fourth personality was formed. According to my speculation, the reason for the formation of the twenty-fourth personality is to protect the body of the protagonist. And setting the plot like this, I feel that there is a little contradiction with the male protagonist finally letting go of the female protagonist. Besides, I don't think it's a bit too violent to be able to split into 24 personalities. However, as a horror and thriller, the movie's scene settings and music are still in place. In particular, the actor's acting skills can flexibly switch among several personalities freely, and it is difficult to change other actors. I think the plot of the movie would have been more eye-catching if the movie didn't tell the male protagonist that he had a split personality at the beginning, leaving a suspense. In addition, the plot can be more compact, and the story of the heroine's childhood in the middle is a little long-winded. And the ending confuses me too much. Personally, I feel that the center of this film is not particularly prominent. It is not so much a call to pay attention to DID, it may be more to let everyone pay attention to child abuse and sexual assault.

    I am completely speechless and obsessed with reversal and guest appearances. I don’t care about the rationality of the plot. The degree of narcissism is increasing. Is the last easter egg trying to build a "Shamalan universe"... The two supporting actresses are basically not acting.

    The creativity of the script is very good. It slowly becomes supernatural and pseudo-science. I really like this kind of magical movie. Waiting for Shamaran’s signature reversal. In the end, the script is still a bit thin. The reversal did not wait for anything. The last egg is very interesting. Shamaran has repeatedly failed before, but he still has the ability to be a director. He will still shine when he encounters good things. After waiting, he will build the same immortal personality and split the universe.
