The Lake House

The Lake House was a remake of the korean movie "il Mare". The story is about a man, Alex, and a woman, Kate, who had lived in the same lake house, but two years apart. By chance, they realised that using the lake house's mailbox, they can actually communicate with each other through letters. Hence a romantic story about 2 persons who lived at different times begins.

I quite like the show as it is light, simple, funny and has two good-looking leads. I'm glad I did not watched the korean version 'cos I'll probably view The Lake house with a biased mind. Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock are so natural and eased into their characters effortlessly. Though I predicted the "climax" correctly, the show still managed to excite me a little at that part.

Stories to do with the concept of time and changing of history always raise a lot of questions, but I think it is best to forget about such details and enjoy the great chemistry between the two leads and the oh-so romantic sceneries. Damn the house by the lake is beautiful!
