Korean/ USA Movie " Past Lives " is a drama about what ifs, lost relationships, and identity.

The movie has impressive cinematography, with a gloomy New York as the main setting, offering the right space for the melancholic tone of the story. And true, the plot is quite blue, with the two main characters missing chance after chance to be together. At the same time, the questions of identity and home are often set out to become obstacles for them, other than bad timing and bad decisions.

Other than that, the movie seems to never reach that burst that the story needed, whether that was a happy ending or a tragic ending. Also, the time jumps were plenty and messed up the pace and the cohesiveness of the story.

Finally, the performances were smooth and enjoyable by every actor and actress in the cast.

So, overall, five out of ten. It's an interesting movie, but it turns out to be just okay.
