The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

This movie attracted me from the first scene till the end of the movie. The situation of this movie is similar to our real world, but something is different, so viewers think "Where is this?" at the first time they watch this movie. In addition, many mysterious elements which make viewers wonder what will happen next show up again and again in this movie. Who is this man? That city is like Moscow, but why are there no human except that man? Are they robots? Why does he kill the old man? What's in the box? A lot of questions come up viewers mind, so they cannot stop watching this movie. I think the director of this movie really understands the elements which make viewers excited and have interested of the movie.

This is the very unique and perhaps mysterious film. There is a box which has a unicorn inside, and the box is carried by people one after another. Yet, once they touch the box, they are involved in some accidents and finally lose their lives. You shouldn't miss the ending, which reveals what the box means. The most astonishing things about the film is the fact that the story develops in a very thrilling and exciting way. Usually, the unicorn, which is the key word in this film, reminds you of the fancy stories with the pretty unicorn. In this film, however, the unicorn is an invisible object which forces you to consult your imagination, and furthermore, the story full of action and bloody scene doesn't provide you with the nice drama that makes you feel good. Thus this film tears apart your stereotype toward the word, unicorn. To sum up, it is a remarkably irregular story with unicorn, but its uniqueness makes the story possible to distinguish from any other stories.

The genre of this film is science fiction and also it has some action scenes. This film is set the people having the gift. Perhaps, many questions will come to your mind while watching this film. In order to solve the questions, you need to watch this film several times, then gradually you will be able to make sense of the story. I think that this kind of intellectual process is one of the ways to enjoy films. Therefore, I would like to recommend this film, especially to people who can enjoy thinking about the story deeply even after you watch films.Moreover, the camera-work and the sound effects of this film do a great job on increasingly adding to the tension and also keeping the film lively. For example, you will watch the car chase scene which definitely, makes you feel nervous in the film. In this way, this film is visually interesting as well as the story. The film succeeds in creating tension and thrills for viewers, so you will really want to find out what will happen next. Can you make sense of this?
