There is nothing more painful than seeing a great movie and being misunderstood by everyone, one that even includes the same people who praise it. Movies, or most movies, when they try to work on us, we can only have two macro attitudes about them: believe and disbelieve. Especially such a movie that is defined as "science fiction", "thriller" or something. If you just sit wherever you are, chewing gum or drinking tea, and analyze the movie from the elements of the movie, then the conclusion you reach will always be nothing in reality, that is, there is no meaning at all. Those who choose to "don't believe" please shut up. Although you have taken over the world. . .

Too many metaphors, too many psychological hints, it's no wonder this film is favored by the film catalogue. The success or failure of the entire film depends entirely on the performance of the two leading actors. The first half is somewhat convoluted, long and dull, and the characters are always in a tense state. Until the storm came, the acting skills of the two finally broke out. Michael Shannon gave an Oscar-level performance, but unfortunately the quality of the work is not strong enough after all, which is a pity

A quality psychological thriller with a terribly fucked up ending

Curtis: [talking about Hanna, their deaf daughter] I still take off my boots not to wake her.
Samantha: [whispering] I still whisper.
