Julien M @jmontmayeur7 21 hrs ago Honestly really surprised by how low this is rated on here. This is a great psychological thriller. It shoes what prisons and mental institutes are like and the plot twist is very good. I think maybe the plot could be paced a little better and we could get maybe more detail into Teddy's background. The scenes between Teddy and his wife are confusing and don't actually give us too much more information about him and his wife's relationship. We really don't learn much about Teddy till the plot twist at the end.

See more Tyler H @TylerHotel1 Aug 22, 2026 Would give this movie 5 stars but the public connotation after consuming this movie since its release has managed to diminish such an excellent concept, with exceptional foresight and individual roles. See more Cenny 4 @KenTan Aug 22, 2026 Very thrilling and haunting film, especially the ending reveal. I think there were hints throughout the movie that he was the topmost dangerous criminal, but his insanity kept him from the truth. I don’t think there are many interpretations to be analyzed from this movie; it is just pure psychological horror . It makes you question what insanity is and what human minds are capable of. A scary thought. But beyond the psychology, the emotional notes of this story is felt deeply. The first hit is when teddy realises that his wife has gone insane and killed all 3 of their children, and in a fit of horror, guilt, disappointment, anger, killed his wife. He really blames himself for not getting her help thus leading to this very unfortunate incident, and after this, his brain blocks this traumatizing incident from himself, and creates this new alter ego where this doesn’t happen at all. I think this film is also educational, so seek help even for mental injuries! See more Read all reviews
