The content is really good, I like it very much, but some of them really destroy a little beauty in order to push the plot abruptly. Castor is disgusting, but brother makes me feel a lot like Loki in the Women's Federation, and is also a character that people hate. When I saw it later, I was worried about whether Sean could change his face and be himself successfully in the end, and the ending was a bit rushed. My overall sense is that the middle plot part attracts me the most.

But it's pretty good to be able to make something like this in the 20th century. It's an action movie worth watching!
