When I first saw Universal's title, I thought it was a British director's American film, but the cool filter at the beginning told me that it was a standard British film. As for the subsequent storyline, the steady pace and technique of filming, and without exaggeration, everything is precise, this is the impression of the British film.

I feel that the most distinctive feature of this film is the music. It breaks through the routine of British films that basically only use classical musical instruments. The sound of a typewriter is used as a rhythm to directly insert into the picture, which gives people a feeling of traveling through time and space. , has the style of modern MIX, but also does not lose the British flavor, calm, but also mixed with a little humor in the interval.

In addition to the music, the ending of this movie is also very innovative, just like the multiple endings in an RPG game, but the arrangement of this multiple endings is different from the hazy and chaotic feeling of "Two Little No Guess", and plays the British calmness. The novel and reality are cut across the board and divided into two parts, leaving the final choice to the audience. Live or Die it's your chioce.
