The whole film can be summed up in one sentence

It's a very good movie, with clear ideas, good rhythm, and a big brain hole.

In fact, the whole film can be summed up in one sentence, that is, a high-dimensional creature ran to our dimension and caught some people to play.

For those who don't understand the dimension, I will explain briefly. We humans are in a four-dimensional space, and there are five-dimensional, six-dimensional, and other higher dimensions above it. The higher the dimension, the more powerful the creatures in it. Four-dimensional humans can only see the length, width and height of an object. Rotate around the object once and you can see the top, bottom, front, back, left, and right of the object. A creature with a higher dimension does not need to move to see an object, and can see the object's up, down, front, back, left, and right at a glance. A higher dimensional creature can see not only the current form of the object, but also the past and future of the object. No matter how high it is, you can see time and space. In their eyes, time and space are qualitative and not ethereal. Then the dimensional creatures can control time and space at will, and so on. For a specific introduction, you can use Baidu popular science on your own.

So, to put it simply, this movie is a high-dimensional creature that came to our human dimension to play. Humans are just ants to them. The brothers were able to run away in the end, but the creature didn't care too much. It ran away, and it still had a lot of people to play with. If it really went all out to catch the two brothers, they would never be able to escape. It's like a child playing with a group of ants. He catches most of them. Occasionally, he wants to catch two or three ants, but if he can't catch them, he won't catch them. It doesn't matter to him. But that doesn't mean he can't catch it, it just doesn't mean he doesn't want to be serious.

Eh, sorry, the subtitle translation of the version I watched was a bit messy, and I didn't understand the ending. It turned out that the two brothers didn't run away. Thank you friends downstairs for letting me know.
