    "Beautifully Acted, But a Lackluster story and Painfully Dull"

    A girl who can see the future through his senses by touching. If there was a good part about this film it was just Carlo Aquino and Julia Baretto's acting. They're good especially in emotional scenes.

    But other than that, it was a lackluster story and uninteresting film. This is a romance film but you can't feel the chemistry between them. It's so unentertaining and slow-paced that I would just rather sleep than watch it.

    The cinematography was okay even though it could been better because it's filmed in japan. The ending was atrocious and it makes the story more worse.

    Lacks character development, painfully dull story, with a wasted cast that is good at acting.
