what kind of movie is this

I rate the movie's rating criteria very arbitrarily, maybe after watching it, I think it's good, but it's just mediocre when it falls to me.
Speaking of how I felt when I watched this movie, I thought it was about a man who had sex too much, and then seemed to think that it was because of excessive masturbation that he didn't do anything, and then I thought it was using sex with strangers and being powerless to those he loved.
But when I saw another person's review of the film, I realized that my views were too superficial.
This is not a simple sex movie, it seems to say that the hero is ashamed for this side of his sex addiction, he said to M: "I can't understand why people want to get married". As I understood from the beginning, he is a man who likes to play and enjoy sex but does not want to be bound by marriage.
He has a career and a house, but he lacks a person around him who can accept his sex addiction. He can't start a sex life with his beloved. Is it because he feels dirty?
After S accidentally discovered the other side of his life, his frantic behavior, his irrational behavior that he was on the verge of collapse, his sentence: "You are driving me into a corner, you are monitoring me."
He was afraid that others would find out. The other side of him that is unknown, he is afraid that because of this, the people around him will cast aside him and stay away from him, although he is completely separated from the other self in his every move in life, and even his daily habits are as far as possible. Do it perfectly normal.
Like S said: "None of us are bad people."
You have another side, no matter what that other side is, you don't have to be ashamed, you can't control it, life forces it.
Everything that has not endangered the safety of others and the other side of social order, you can hide it, and let those who are willing to accept you face and overcome with you.


New York New York is a very charming song, although jerky, but still so delicious...

    Off-topic, how could his mental state work? Also a high salary and a good job.

    Director McQueen unabashedly conveyed the extreme unhappiness of the protagonist to the heart of the audience with the most direct and extreme images. In the sad era when the Internet is handcuffing human beings, many people can only release their impulses at the other end of the cable or even the beautiful appearance after the editing of fashion magazines, making themselves a complete waste when they really face emotions.
