I just finished the movie. I personally like movie topics that are in the taboo nature because it is interesting to see how the point of views can be played around.
If you can't stomach taboo topics and in particular, incest...DON'T WATCH THIS! It will save you from complaining or dropping mid way. There is intimacy between the siblings like in any relationship that is shown in movies to develop their relationship so be forewarned. The story in the movie has a lot of plot holes in my opinion. They didn't really explain things well or complete enough. This movie, objectively speaking, wasn't produced very well. The cast was definitely in the so-so range in my opinion so that didn't really help. The fact is, I watched the anime OVA first so I knew what I was getting myself into. (FYI, this is based off a manga...10 volumes) And, in comparison to the OVA, I felt like the movie did better than the OVA in portraying the manga but it still left holes in places I wish it was filled in. The movie shows the emotional struggle that the siblings do have from beginning to end. I agree with another reviewer that mentioned that this really isn't a romantic movie. It shows that the romance exists but it more so focuses on the struggle of acceptance of what relationship can the two of them have...an adventurous path that most don't tread on.
Don't really have much to say about music. Rewatching value...well, let's just say this won't be the first thing that pops up in my head. It is one of those movies that you will remember just because of the taboo topic. Acting really isn't all that great.
But, I do think it isn't that bad. Food for thought...I think this type of relationship can actually happen. I mean twins are a strong bond. And, in Asian countries, family are really close. Too be so close to run into a foreign emotion to a family member may be possible, especially in twins...plus the fact that they are teens with hormones raging and other factors that are shown in the movie. There are definitely forces playing for it to happen.
The portrayal of emotional confusion, struggles and acceptance of a decision between the characters are the three memorable and noticeable things that makes the movie not so much so, a terrible movie to me.
