What touches us most is not terror, but tenderness

At first I just thought it was a boring thriller, dig a bunch of holes, and then push everything to ghosts or schizophrenia. But in the end, when I saw the heroine holding the two children in her arms and wept bitterly, when I saw the two children snuggling pitifully in the mother's arms, I cried. It can be said that this is also an anti-war themed film, which skillfully placed the fate and era of the people in the war under the shell of ghosts and gods. What really touches people’s hearts is the love!
