(No plot spoilers - only the heart of the message.) IF reminded me that imagination isn't childish, it's a lifeline. As kids, we create safe worlds when real life feels too heavy. We invent friends who stay with us through fears we can't even name yet. Those companions are our courage, our comfort, our hope.

Growing up, we're told to let all that go. To be sensible. To be "big." Somewhere along the way, we forget the magic that once protected us.

This film brought it back. It shows, with so much heart, that those pieces of us never truly disappear. Our imaginary friends, our safe space, our wonder they've always been here, quietly waiting for us to remember.

I cried more than I expected, not because it was sad... but because it touched a part of me I thought I had outgrown. And yes... I absolutely want Steven as my imaginary friend. That little green squishy guy destroyed me 😭💚

IF is tender, meaningful, funny and healing in a way I can't fully explain. My inner child felt seen and very happy. 9/10 from both of us.

Because of all the negative reviews I almost skipped this one. Glad I didn't. Did I miss something why this is supposed to be bad? I binged the mini series in one sitting because I wanted to know who did what.

It doesn't have mind blowing moments that is why I only gave it a 7. Other than that all good, it kept me on the screen so..

It's definitely not really a thriller, but it is erotic - and the male lead delivers that side of it really well. The female lead doesn't quite bring the same chemistry, which was a bit of a letdown, but overall I was entertained.

What really bothered me was how the sisters were written: way too extreme and opposite to each other, which felt both annoying and unrealistic.

One more thing: watch it in the original language if you can. I can't even imagine how bad a dubbed version must feel for this kind of movie.
