Again I left hungry the screen and the same question came up in me: what was this all about? Reincarnation - fooling someone - respecting others needs... I just don't know what was the purpose of watching this film. As a story, it was not that interesting, as a drama, there was no real drama, as about reincarnation, there were a number of plot holes. However, I liked the slow motion, the close ups, the music, the ambiance - I love those moments when I have time to feel, see, experience without rush.
I start to like Nicole Kidman more and more, she plays wonderfully again. I especially loved the close ups, she gave such a perfect look on the feelings of Anna, how troubled she was, how she loved her ex-husband, how lost she is in today's world.
Does that makes sense, that someone from the past that I loved shows up in a 10 year old body (Sean)? Maybe, but I'm not that sort of person. If I had keep up to this 'Saan', it'd mean I cannot move on, that I still live in the past, am bond to my feelings of ten years before. And then, even I loved him/her then and still love him/her now, it doesn't mean I want to live with him/her. Living in a marriage is much more to me than just being in love.
So the movie is good, even though the story was not that clear, I liked it and would recommend for a rainy afternoon - 6/10.
