Ray Monroe , just after Thanksgiving with his wife and daughter at mother-in-law's house, is driving home. Because

At the same time, his marriage with his wife Joanne is facing a six-year itch.
Inevitably, the two had a dispute in the car.
Their daughter Perry seems to have been accustomed to their quarrels for a long time, playing with herself.
Because Pelli wants to go to the toilet, Ray parked the car in the rest area. After
returned to the car, Perry found that the little glasses case she had been playing with was gone.
Lei and Joe decided to split up, one went to the toilet and the other in the back seat of the car.
After getting out of the car, Perry was attracted by a balloon, but unexpectedly a dog appeared in front of her.
In the process of retreating, Perry fell from the high platform, and Lei, who wanted to pull her daughter, also fell. With
, Perry broke her arm and Ray broke her head. The
couple decided to send Perry to the hospital as quickly as possible.
Along the way, Ray was overtaking.
soon, they arrived at the nearest hospital to them.
Like all hospitals, this hospital is also overcrowded. You have to queue for everything.
is different from other hospitals, this hospital reveals weirdness everywhere.
Every time a patient comes, the nurse will call the doctor to report the patient's age and blood type. Before registration, the nurse will ask a lot of messy questions. For example,
, for example, what blood type is the patient, and does not agree to be included in the organ donation list...
is just a medical visit, why is it related to organ donation?
When Perry finally saw the doctor, after seeing Perry's arm, the doctor suggested that she have a brain tomography.
has a problem with his arm, why do a head scan? Since
is for the sake of her daughter, just do it. I didn’t expect this to be done. The mother and daughter
are just like the world has evaporated, they are gone! On the
outpatient record, there is no record of Perry's visit. Perry’s name is not on the doctor
list. The
tomography machine showed that the 6-year-old girl had not been scanned in the morning.
can only see Lei in the surveillance of the outpatient hall, but not his family.
The doctors and nurses in the morning are all off work, no one can prove that the mother and daughter have been to the hospital.
waited for the morning doctors and nurses to arrive. They said that the only person who came to see the doctor at
in the morning was Lei, and his brain was injured.
They also said that Ray did not mention Joanne and Perry, but instead mentioned a woman named Abby.
Abby is Ray’s former wife. Abby, who was pregnant because of drunk driving, died in a car accident.
Does Joanne and Perry only exist in Ray’s illusion, or are they real? If
is the former, why did Ray find Perry’s yellow scarf under the hospital bed? If
is the latter, where are they now? Is
in the hospital or still staying in the rest area on the edge of the national highway?
Lei Mingming remembered that his wife and daughter took the elevator downstairs when they went for the checkup. Why did the doctor say that the scanning room was upstairs?
Why is the elevator leading downstairs locked? What secrets are hidden downstairs in the
hospital?
Is it because Lei had memory confusion, or was there a sinister conspiracy hidden in the hospital?
or both?
"Broken" tells a suspenseful story that is both true and false.
The cold weather has undoubtedly added a bit of horror to the movie. The
story itself can be said to be very old-fashioned, but anyone who has seen some suspenseful brain-burning films can guess the ending soon after the movie begins..
On the contrary, the director turned his hand so well, and immediately bluffed many audiences.
When you take it for granted that the male protagonist is insane, the
movie uses strangely-behaved nurses to interrogate, and can only shoot for 30 seconds per minute. The yellow plastic bags delivered from time to time outside the window make you believe that the
male protagonist is innocent. , The sneaky hospital has problems!
When you firmly believe that the hospital is a black-hearted hospital that sells organs in private, the
movie uses scanner data. The statements of doctors and nurses make you doubt your own judgment.
Until you see the large blood stains at the accident site in the rest area, you begin to believe that
hospital may not be a serious hospital, but the male lead must be the problem male lead!
did not expect that there is a hidden operating room on the second floor of the hospital. The patients in the operating room who have been pierced and gouged make you change your judgment again. The
black heart hospital is too terrible. The hero must have been wronged!
When you look at the progress bar and think that this is the end, you see another shocking scene. The
film is called "Break", which is both a split of time and a split of memory. There are countless classic movies of
. On
, "Break" is certainly no better than "Memories", "Fight Club", and "Fatal ID".
But as an original movie of Netflix, its completion is quite good. In the constant reversal of
, in the memory of Lei's indistinguishable truth from false, the truth becomes more confusing. When the
smoke bomb hits, can you still stick to your original judgment?
Are you still willing to believe when the truth appears?
When the movie can use constant reversal to make the audience doubt or even overthrow their own judgment,
has already won.
