Say Yes Again (2021)

The tragedy of being "too late"

Even though this movie seemed like a general rom-com, the more I think about it, the more it's the kind of movie that grows on you. It really reminded me about having to be responsible towards your own life, filled me with a lot of hope, and finally made me think: Remember that life is short.

What does it mean to be in a time loop? It means having unlimited time, getting unlimited chances to make the right decision, to right the path you are on, to prevent regrets. Say Yes Again on the surface is saying all these, which is not too different from other time loop movies.

The two leads acted decently and I really felt the excitement of their honeymoon period while also noticing the differences in their characters: One was more realistic and practical, and the other was more carefree and easy-going. From the ML's perspective, this was his coming-of-age story and it was a little silly but also very relatable.

But it was the last 10 minutes that really flipped everything upside down. Though it was a little rushed, I really enjoyed the premise and intent behind it, and it not only tugged at the heartstrings but made me think twice about my attitude toward life.

I often think to myself that one of the most tragic phrases in the world is "it's too late," and at its core that was the meaning behind this movie.

雖然這部電影看起來只像浪漫喜劇，但我越來越覺得它耐看。它提醒了我要對生活負責任，也讓我充滿了希望，又好像跟我說：記著，生命短暫。

時間循環有什麼意思？就是給你無限的時間，給你無限的機會做最好的決定，把軌道修正，避免後悔。【再說一次我願意】在表面上就在說這個，跟別的時間循環片一樣。

兩個主角演得還不錯，讓我感受到蜜月期的興奮可是也讓我看得出來兩個人的性格差距：一個人比較腳踏實地，另一個比較瀟灑。從男方的角度著就是他的成年故事，有點搞笑可是也很有相關性。

可是電影最後那十分鍾把世界完全顛倒轉。雖然是寫得有點太匆忙，但真意我還是很喜歡，不但能動人心弦也造成我對自己生活的態度再次思考。

我經常自己想，世界上最悲傷的一句話就是「來不及了」。【再說一次我願意】的內涵意義也就是這個。
