Reversed Destiny (2024)

Their opinions of life got reversed

Mi Sha and XingXing had more than a genuine friendship, they shared a treasurable bond between them which can't be named just as a friendship. MiSha helped XingXing in realising her dreams, while XingXing was like a mother to her which she never had. Though they were drifted apart due to misunderstandings and in a fit of anger, their place in other's life was irreplaceable. After years, they had a bittersweet reunion, however, I'm sure that the only regret XingXing had was that she didn't get more time to spend with MiSha. Also, she wants MiSha to get out of her regrets and live her life better.

When LuLi entered in between them, initially it was cute and heart-warming to watch but things started to get complicated when they began to catch feelings for each other. I was thankful to him for taking care of XingXing as a faithful childhood friend, but did that only because he was the reason her mother died. That's such a turn off!

As the title suggests, their destinies or I can say their perspectives of their mother swapped at some point. MiSha thought her mother abandoned her, only to find out that she didn't leave her but got into an accident. And XingXing who was fond of her mother's love, got a reality check that she (XingXing's mother) regretted having her. It was a lot to handle for both of them, yet it was a relief that they had someone to lean on. And it definitely wasn't LuLi.

MiSha and XingXing's closeness give lowkey Sapphic taste to the movie. The entire time while watching the movie, I wished for it to turn into a GL. LuLi's presence was just to bring a rift between them. That's it. I didn't find other significance for his character. It's sad that he had to pay the price with an life-long injury.

Actors did a great job at conveying their emotions. Anger. Betrayal. Love. Pity. All of it was outstanding. Actress who played as XingXing deserves a special praise to act the scenes where XingXing suffers from episodes also actress who played MiSha, while shooting the harrassing scene. It must've been quite traumatic.

All over, this was an excellent movie to watch that will definitely leave you with buckets of tears.
