a philosophically rich film adaptation that explores digital companionship, care work, grief, memory, family & love
while not overly stylistic i enjoyed a lot of the camera work and there were some good shots in here

This shit completely did not work for me dude oh my god. And I’m like the exact target audience for this too. What went wrong here??

I saw the twist coming from the first few minutes.
Two lovers virtually undead, somehow fall in love again is somewhat romantic in a sci-fi way, but in regard to storytelling, it is so predictable. maybe I’m just sensitive. Who knows
I do like that the story didn’t entirely rely on that twist, it actually carried on, and said a lot more in like the remaining twenty minutes
They missed a great opportunity to reference the ship of Theseus, and I’m just upset about that.

A deeply sad movie. Really makes you think, if you had access to your family after death, is it best to just leave it be?

This was on my Movies I Never Finished List and I'm not sure why I never got back to it, but despite not finishing it, one idea from it has haunted me for years: someone talks about how every time you remember something, you're not remembering it, but rather the last time you remembered it, so each time the memory fades more and more because it's just a copy of a copy. What a horrible sentiment that must be true. I try not to think about it.
This is really unsettling and wonderful and something I should truly love and maybe would if I sat down and gave the whole thing my undivided attention. Something about the tone is so off-putting to me, probably deliberately, that I can't quite get in its groove. Something I'll likely appreciate more when I'm older.
