The climax was one of the most memorable moments in this film because it involved a fight scene between two brothers, which led to an emotional ending where they both fell into each other’s arms.

Watched an episode of Severance. The analog world view and the look is amazing! The separation of work and personal life in "Severance" is also new! Great drama! In my case, I'm creating things all the time, even in my personal life. pic.twitter.com/Vc9MM69cwB— HIDEO_KOJIMA (@HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN) February 18, 2022
Who is the antagonist?
The antagonist is the band of mercenaries. However, they are not a part of the plot until later in the story. In addition to that, there were two other antagonists: one being an assassin hired by Mr Atherton’s wife and another was an evil spirit called “Severance” who wanted revenge on his family for his father’s death.
Would you recommend this to watch?
If you are not easily disturbed by violence and gore, then I would recommend watching it. It is a very good movie with great acting and plot. However, if that kind of scene bother you or make you feel uncomfortable, then I would not recommend it. This movie is not for children. It contains strong language and graphic violence that isn’t suitable for kids.
