This is a remake that is faithful to the original, yet also adds something new by blending in Asian societal expectations. All three main actors play their roles wonderfully, and the tension between their characters will constantly keep you guessing what the next twist is. One standout performance is from Selena Lee, who is able to convey a ton of emotion just through her eyes. The younger versions of the three characters also do a solid job in conveying the essence of their older selves.
Highly recommended if you loved Richard Linklater's original and are interested in Asian culture or cinema.
