anticlimactic

It was a good start, and the love and affection are very deep. Unfortunately, after half an hour, the whole movie fell into a cliché. The mother's soul entered the daughter's body, experienced and felt the daughter's life, and found that the love that once brought the child was actually a bondage. The daughter's soul returned to the body and found that her mother's love was so sincere and selfless, and she was crying. The poor dad lost one of his wife and daughter, faced different identities of the same person, confusion, collapse... It seems too mysterious, too old-fashioned. It completely disintegrated the thick foreshadowing of the first half hour, and did not arouse the audience's desire to suspense or even think, and lost its resonance.
Olivia Thirlby seems too immature in terms of acting skills, and it is difficult to get into the play in the role of mother, which makes people very confused.
Anticlimactic, unfortunately. Out of the touching first half hour, three-star evaluation.

    Since it is a remake, it is inevitable to compare it with Japan. The biggest difference lies in the ending. As far as the mother's consciousness has left this result, she clearly tells the audience that there is no need to think about it and there is no other possibility. Whether or not the mother uses her daughter's body to do it with her father is very vague. The director wants to express the relationship between mother and daughter rather than the ethics and morality of the original work.
