I finally got the chance to watch The Lakehouse starring Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock. The only reason why I'm even viewing this film is to compare it to the Korean original, Il Mare. There is ONE big flaw in The Lakehouse. I don't remember if they have this flaw in Il Mare, but here I go: The movie shows Alex celebrating 2006 which means that he didn't die in the car crash in 2004. Keep in mind this is only 3/4 in the movie. The last act comprises of Kate writing a letter to save Alex. But this is totally useless as you already see Alex celebrating 2006.
This reminded me of the Village where it 3/4 into the movie the point of red roses and the monster are exposed, but then the following scene has the blind girl go into a large patch of red roses.
