Edge of Innocence (2017)

I mainly watched this because of Taotao. But I honestly never expected this to be one of those movies where I just keep coming back to it and rewatching it. Because there is only a handful of them I can think of that have me do that. Its a very simple movie but it kept me on the edge of my seat as I was watching it. I fell in love with all the characters. They were very ordinary and they were executed gorgeously by all the cast members. I hope well for their future, especially the female lead. I want to see her in more, she did a wonderful job. Tao basically proved himself his worth as an actor in this film and I couldn't be more proud of him. He came a long way.

The music was just so pretty and it matched the setting nicely. The first time I heard the title track, 19, I basically fell in love ahaha. He has such a unique voice.

As for the plot, it was somewhat challenging for me to grasp for me at first. Although as the story unfolded, it just kept absorbing me in. I have to make a note to read the book as well because I loved this film. It was also very unexpected and had caught me by surprise on how everything was put into place. I don't want to completely ruin it, but if you are someone who likes thriller and romance, I recommend.

As for that ending, I didn't mind. You know, sometimes things do have to end in ways that fairy tales don't depict. Life isn't all about happily ever after. Have a box of tissues if you cry easily!
