In fact, this movie has not yet reached the standard of 5 stars, and it is not deep enough to dig some things about life and love, but who told me to give the Korean version 4 stars, there is no way but to give him 5 stars .
I have to admire the screenwriters in Hollywood, who can add more branches and leaves to a simple love sketch and make a delicious dessert. Hollywood has always liked romantic movies like this, so this time was no exception. Abandoned the pure and beautiful style of the original version,

but I still like it. There are many plots that are no longer so ridiculous. For example, when I watched the original version, I was always there. Did the hero have a terminal illness and couldn't come? (Influenced by Korean dramas), seeing that the heroine behind is begging the hero to stop his boyfriend and was killed by a car, such an arrangement is both abrupt and incomprehensible. In the US version, this arrangement seems reasonable. And the director's narration is smoother than the Korean version. Added a lot of small plots. It looks a lot better.

But the Korean version wins in the aesthetic style, which is something that Hollywood can't shoot.

So my friend asked me whether the Korean version is better or the US version.

My answer is: one is Chinese painting, the other is watercolor painting, see which one you like!

The Lake House quotes

  • Alex: [after he saw her at the subway station in 2004] I don't know if you remember but, we saw each other. That is, I saw you. You never told me... how beautiful you were.

    Kate: Well, maybe you saw someone else. That was a bad hair year for me.

    Alex: Long brown hair, gentle unguarded eyes...

    Kate: OK, OK. You saw me. But I still don't know what you look like.

  • Kate: It was you. Why didn't you tell me?

    Alex: You would've thought I was crazy or drunk. Or both.
