Although the theme of the film is interesting, it was generally unsuccessful. It is eager to complete a social criticism, but it has not reached a higher height. The director’s destructive tendencies are not only preserved in the film, but also stronger than ever. He indulges in creating an atmosphere of escalating chaos in the building, instead of letting the film use a more inspiring way to accuse unfair income or economics. Policy mistakes. In general, although the film is good-looking, well-made, and atmospheric, it is like a building: a confident interior designer takes an architect's blueprint and constructs it into a three-dimensional object.
The film performs well in aesthetics, but this does not mean that the form is greater than the content. The chronology of the entire film is in the mid-1970s, but the costumes and sets deliberately show a sense of discrepancy.
