Alicia Vikander once again pulls a performance from the top shelf. In this racy, engaging psychological love story, we're presented with many themes that cover a broad spectrum of emotions, a story of a love tringle infused with a unique Asian feel to it perfectly showcased by its lead star, Vikander along with a very solid cast sway back and forth in a slow burn format that works most of the time and it can be argued that's it's essential at times, what sticks out is the visual storytelling as the cinematography plays a role itself and it helps set a somber mood which helps with the story.
It came to my attention that the film wasn't faithful to its source material as the ending was altered, It doesn't both me as I didn't read the story and I feel like the end was appropriate and fitting and more importantly realstic.
This film has depth and conveys a more profound meaning, which gives it a gripping factor that's hard to miss out on. A terrific effort.
