The body is dying, if the soul can be taken out and put into a younger and healthier body, would you like it? ! Although I am very small, greatness can't compete with me, but I secretly think that if I have the opportunity and can afford the cost, I really want it. Selfish? ! It's a little bit of an ethical edge ball, right? ! Well, there are. But I still want it. The temptation to be rich and immortal is too great. But if the setting is like this, the original memory and soul can be maintained by the medicine, and the life of the other host is so distressing and needs to be redeemed, which means that I have to accept the second soul torture: you used someone else's body, someone else The family has paid great trauma and sacrifice for this. Now that you know about it, can you still pretend not to know? Are you still taking medicine? What kind of life do you want to believe in? Whose life do you want to live? own original? host's? Brand new yourself? This is really hard. What this movie does well is that it doesn't judge, doesn't use God's perspective, and isn't too idealistic. It just uses real scenes to let you integrate into it. Therefore, the final choice of the male protagonist will be convincing. The old man was consummated because he knew how to sacrifice, and the host was also consummated, because he used the great fatherly love and appearance of ordinary people to accidentally obtain a second chance that is hard to be enjoyed by the poor people. This film exceeded my expectations. I like the plot, setting, and actors' performances. It is a topic that is easy to think. Editing and BGM have a strong sense of substitution. For example, in the seemingly glamorous days just after the body change, the music and editing made the viewers quickly and the protagonist feel the boring and empty life of entertainment-oriented life. The overall rating is low.

  • Albright: Stop taking the medication, and... Your mind fades into oblivion. Madeline can have her husband back. But... keep going, push on and each dose that you take erases a little more of Mark. His army training, his instincts, after a year or so, they'll be gone forever.

  • Damian: You say I'm the reason you got into this business? Now I'm the reason you're out.

    Damian: He's wrong. I won't last six months. It's metastasized. Liver and lungs. This morning the oncologist was talking about hospice care.
