Bell is really amazing. He lost 57 pounds in 2 weeks. The male protagonist really feels like he has not slept for a year. In the end, the male protagonist finally fell asleep and made me feel a little sleepy. In fact, the film as a whole has always given people an uncomfortable feeling: the picture is always gray, and the red sports car driven by the male protagonist looks very dark; scenes including the male protagonist's home and factory are messy and dirty; at the beginning, the male protagonist washes his hands with bleach and uses a toothbrush Brushing the bathroom floor...but feeling uncomfortable is the director's success, and it's important for shaping the atmosphere. The first half of the plot is a little complicated and a little trivial, but fortunately, the details of the previous clues are strung together at the end. I feel that the ending is a bit rushed, and I really want to express my choice of self-salvation under the influence of guilt and self-blame, but compared to the previous paragraphs, it seems top-heavy, the ending develops too fast, and the answer to the question "who are you" is a bit perfunctory , or basically no answer. In general, the suspenseful atmosphere was created very successfully, especially the scene where the male protagonist almost broke his hand made me just take off the headphones. . . It's a mild thriller and suspense, but I like it a lot. In the end, the male protagonist chose to face it directly under the impetus of guilt. In real life, who does not have a "nightmare" in his heart that makes it difficult for us to fall asleep?

    6.0/10. No wonder there are Spanish investment. It's the "Open Your Eyes" that the Yankees used to satirize themselves. The ending is actually quite the main theme (my own demon originated from the guilt after the car escaped). Anyway, I feel it was shot. Quite unattractive~~

    Just add an extra star to CB and the ribs, but the ending is too weak! ! What a mess, CB is going to play it! ! Well, the only highlight of this is CB~~~
