The film opens with a grand vision of space elevators and orbital space stations, and while the physicist in me can pick holes in the science, I'm impressed with the care and thought that has gone into it. Including coriolis effects is a delightful touch.

Man recreates dead wife is a familiar sci-fi trope in recent years, and this film combines it with the age old Moby Dick trope of destructive obsession. But these are played out in quite a subtle way, and the essential mystery of the past (and future present) is revealed

The final scene adds a subtle twist that resonates with the theme of human-android love.

A unique way to present the enduring theme of human relationships, ideals vs reality, control and more but we won't go further here and add spoilers,

Impressively good acting and entertaining with such.a small cast. The writing, acting and visuals are all done well. Like her memories, the audience gets backfilled on a little more history one step at a time until we see the full picture.

If you're looking for action sci-fi or a big psychological thriller, then you'll likely be restless... but if you like a sci-fi backdrop with a Focus on struggling to get your perfect relationship back with a little action to boot, then I think you'll really enjoy it. I'll say it's better than 80% of the movies out there this the rating and my first review. Hope this helps you decide if you should watch.

The film presents a uniquely strange screenplay filled with numerous opportunities for story development, most of which are effectively utilized, though clarity sometimes falters. Set in the year 2200 A. D., the plot unfolds in a future where human migration to space and advanced technology allow for memory manipulation. Naoki and Mayumi reside in a luxurious floating home in space, appearing to be the perfect couple admired by all. Mayumi indulges in ceramics, while Naoki is deeply engrossed in his research. They embody an ideal, tranquil partnership, relishing elegant music, cooking, and dining together. However, beneath the surface lies Naoki's twisted love, as he seeks revenge on Mayumi, who once loved him during happier times. He repeatedly transforms her into an android in an attempt to recreate his ideal version of her.

According to the producer, this psychopathic suspense romance explores a "form of love" that could emerge in the near future, though one might question whether it truly qualifies as love. Many questions needed answers...

In the end we were given the typical weak AF writing and directing known to man. What's up with the constant standing around wasting time these protagonist are forced to do? And especially in this film where she is now an android.

Oh and the typical falling and can't get up bull malarky, combined with the failure to fight back in a life or death situation, and always by the female actors when directed by morons without a original thought in their head.

I mean this had potential and it all went to waste completely with this contrived ending in which an android should have been without care/crying for bot being body slammed by the abusive husband. Just plain Face Palming Nonsense most likely due to writers block, or just weak writing skills.

I gave three stars for the actors who tried their best with what they were given.

I watched this on Amazon Prime a couple of days ago and had to give myself some time to digest it. The story is quite OK, but whoever decided to fill the movie with irrelevant crap should indeed be fired. The film is full of slow-paced memories, some of which actually do explain some things and are helpful in understanding and following the story, however, there is very little story to follow. Acting is acceptable, music - almost non-existent. Fortunately, there are special effects, which I consider to be the only high quality and enjoyable feature. I would gladly watch an edited version with all the non-essential scenes removed. Oh, and did they use StartCraft (the game) "bunker load" sounds when the doors open and close in the movie? LOL, I'm pretty sure that's the exact same sound.
