The film was produced in 1999, the same year as "The Matrix". The concept in the film is equivalent to the combination of "Inception" and "The Truman World" we have seen, but it is a full 11 before "Inception". Years, can be said to be an advanced work.

The advance of the film lies in the fact that in 1999, in the era when AI, that is, artificial intelligence, had not yet had any breakthrough development, it had foreseen the future virtual world, and started from the virtual to construct a more fantasy, but An extremely realistic worldview, in which each of us may be meaningless.

The climax of this film is not the contest between justice and evil at the end, but when the person in the virtual world reaches the real world he thinks, the so-called real world protagonist finds himself living in a virtual world.

The film doesn't have a lot of intense plot rhythm or dazzling camera language, which may be one of the reasons why it doesn't have a huge impact, but the film has a peculiar imagination, has a fast-paced plot, and has a lot of humor in its scenes. , the magic stroke at the end is even more evocative, it is very suitable for one or two people to watch it quietly.

    Although concise, it does not hide the excitement of the story. The film uses multiple worlds to almost perfectly interpret agnosticism: Is human behavior in the eyes of other beings like ants? At the end, the philosophical speculation of reality and existence is infinitely extended in just one second, throwing the audience a final (and final) question: If we cannot define reality, what is reality? / Adapted from the same novel as "In Between Worlds".

    The idea is good, but it's a little simpler. I guessed the ending when the male protagonist returned to the old man in 37 years, and let love be the main line. I'm really sorry for the title of a suspense movie! The most classic of the whole film is the sentence at the beginning, I think, therefore I am here~ Is there a title at the beginning! The film made more than ten years ago is actually quite awesome. After watching too many suspense films and then looking back at the concept of inception, it is actually not so awesome. . .
