decent until the end
[The spoilers are for the ending.]As described, this movie focuses on the relationship between two housemates who have very different ideas of how to keep a home and how to approach life. The 'plot' is divided into four, probably-meant-to-be-connected-but-in-actuality-not-really acts. This vibe suits a slice-of-life drama much more than a film. I would actually watch this tv show, but as a movie it was cramped and hard to follow.
It seems one-sided in Ako's favour until the final act, where there is a confrontation scene between the two that was deeply satisfying. That was the best scene in the whole film.
The last 5 minutes are definitely the worst part. It is heavily implied that the strange family that visited are the ones to rob Ako, but the missing stone appears in a random part of the forest with no explanations (insinuated, offered, or otherwise) that could explain how it appeared there. Then there is a random supernatural element that is wholly out of place. The fact that this is the ending really undoes whatever suspension of disbelief (and affection, honestly) that the audience builds during the course of the movie.
The music gets a high score because it's relevant for act 1.
