Gripping and thought-provoking

Rating: 9/10 (12 April 2020)

The first half of the movie "room" is gripping and the second half is thought-provoking. Frankel talked about a victim syndrome, that is, being persecuted for a long time can lead to emotional numbness and cognitive errors. For example, they would think, "how do you all deal with all the suffering I've suffered..." Therefore, it is difficult to integrate into the original living environment. After all, it's more difficult to reconstruct the original world when it collapses than to return to the real environment from ignorance. That's why mom can't stand it and son is braver. That's why "room" is more profound than the general suspense movie. Fortunately, love is the best medicine to save everything.
