"The Lake House", the American version of "Untouchable Lovers", the plot is almost the same, but some more coincidental things are added in the middle. How should I put it, I didn't imagine that it would surpass the Korean version, and in fact it really couldn't. South Korea is really good at making this kind of film. I'm used to seeing Keanu Reeves acting cool on the screen, but I'm not used to his gentle and lyrical look. Besides, these two protagonists are too old. If the Korean version is a 25-year-old young woman and a 28-year-old young man talking about pure love, then the American version is a 38-year-old woman and a 40-year-old woman. Young men in costumes - actually I've always liked Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock a lot, but that was them over a decade ago, they were in Speed. Fortunately, in the end, the two of them are still together. Compared with the vague ending of the Korean version, this one is more gratifying to me - in fact, I twisted my fingers and counted for a long time, and I couldn't figure out whether it was the man who passed two years earlier or whether The woman stepped back for two years~ It should be the man who waited for two years~~
