This film is a suspense film. First of all, I think the role of the protagonist of the film is rather clever. He doesn't have too many skills, and he won't be able to perform cool martial arts. He is just an ordinary person, so the whole story feels more integrated. and close. Secondly, many details are handled very well, and many foreshadowings are also buried in the film. Although the feeling of watching it is not particularly vigorous, it seems that there is no real bad person in the whole film, but it is actually buried long ago. Foreshadowing, so it gives a comfortable and not abrupt feeling! This kind of plot arrangement and design seems to be the usual routine of novels, but it can capture the audience's psychology and let us feel the surprise of getting the truth through step-by-step reasoning! At the same time, because the protagonist is a doctor, the film is also reflected in some details. What impressed me the most is that the male protagonist Harrison was able to subconsciously and instinctively rescue the almost misdiagnosed because of his identity during the escape process. Patient, this is his sense of responsibility and mission for this identity!
