"Small Island" is a psychological thriller that inherits the
spirit of Hitchcock's "Butterfly Dream" and Kubrick's "The Shining". Stunts are the call. This work, written, directed and composed by the young Spanish director Amamba, like the "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" written by Indian Shamaran, injects different creativity into the step-by-step Hollywood model. The film seems to be an excellent chamber music work, with only one scene and a few characters, but with rich details, it makes people endlessly guess and play. The casting and performance of the film are remarkable. The two child actors do not win with cleverness, but show the helplessness and confusion to the fullest, especially the contrast between the daughter's contradiction and the son's paleness. Whether it is a breath-holding line or a hysterical episode, Nicol Kidman not only shows the perseverance and madness of Mrs. Macbeth, but also the firm belief and self-repression of the heroine of "The Scarlet Letter", as well as the vulnerability that is hidden deeper. Mrs. Mills, the butler played by Flanagan, contrasts with the anxiousness of Mrs. Macbeth, played by Nicole Kidman.

The success of "Small Island" is that it realistically creates a terrifying process of seeking the truth, and then "overthrows it" in the end.
"Small Island Cry" is full of a strong exotic atmosphere. The film's gloomy and gloomy horror and the seriousness of the theme have formed a peculiar charm, and the unexpected ending of the film is a lot of Spanish horror films. Highly summarized.
"Small Island" is expected to truly inherit the mantle of "Sixth Sense of Supernatural" and become the top masterpiece in the wave of psychological horror films.
