This is a teenage romance movie with great story lines that touched on several themes in real life when "A", the MC started to appear in Rhiannon, the female MC's life. It does not matter that how and why the mystery of "A" able to transport from one body to another and living their lives for them for just that one day, is never properly addressed in this movie because this movie is not about the fantasy and supernatural but to me, it is about human relationships. From how Rhiannon's so-called romantic relationship with her jerk boyfriend, Justin to Rhiannon's family relationships to "A"'s attempt to live the lives of the people he/she invaded for a day, the audience gets to travel together in these illustrated relationships.
I like how the story tried to cover the many different aspects of people that "A" gets to invade and along the way touch on the various real life issues, the outcasts at school, the high expectations of parents on their children, LGBT, teenage's life, etc, and of course showcasing the people from all walks of life, culture, values, beliefs and so on. The flow of the story is smooth and the scenes are aptly laid out together with what I think are most amazing OST as bgm. In fact the greatest thing about this movie, to me, is the soundtrack of life picked out for these two MCs.
I also really appreciate how the ending is not going down the typical teenage romance movie of happily ever after and instead despite leaving a bittersweet taste to what I have watched, I realised I was happy for the two MCs to have the chance to meet and trying to make things work for them at their young age without much understandings how to go about what they are going through. Many things in life are best left unexplained and to just go with the flow and enjoy the process, which I think "A" the MC is living the life set out for in whatever best way "A" could think of for that person being invaded for a day.
Note: Apparently there was an older movie called Beauty Inside released in 2012 that is similar to this movie and also a Korean version also released in 2012. Interesting indeed.
