I don't know why there are some bad reviews; perhaps it is not as thrill as they expected but I gotta say it's much better than some normal action thrills.

Multiple twists that you won't predict and they make the movie interesting. The plots are good; the acting mostly is good.

Some lines may be weird but they won't matter.

The time setting is reasonable; though it may not be as fancy as some other movies depict about the future.

Parts of the story did not explain well until later.

I gotta say MANY scenes the leading actors acted so well. You should be moved.

May feel a bit draggy in the beginning but you can survive this.

This is more a typical asian TV drama with over-the-top acting and artless attempts to pull your emotional strings than it is a future hightech thriller, as advertised. All underlaid with sappy music and filmed in toned down colors, assumingly to show "its the dark near future". Some good acting, but hard to watch because of bad direction and the less than appealing script.

Not recommended unless you love asian (taiwanese/korean) tear-jerker TV shows. Nothing new to be found here.

Plot were tight, doesnt seem to have much loop hole, and all the actors were doing a great job

This movie is on my top 5 list of best movies in 2021. The sound score, cinematography, scenery, acting,script, storyline.. it aced it.. Don't worry about its length.. you will not feel the time passing. You will stay engaged till the last shot! It will not let you down with all its unexpected twists and turn of events.

The Soul: Taiwanese SF/Horror Thriller which is also a murder mystery and several love stories, set in 2031. The Billionaire owner of a BioTech company is murdered, apparently by his own son. But it's no ordinary murder, Occult Sigils were painted on walls and the killer acted out a ritual as he carried out the deed. The boy's mother had committed suicide 2 years before whist also carrying out a ritual, believing she would return to curse her husband. The dead BioTech mogul's new wife is acting strangely as if possessed, saying she sees the dead woman's (angry) ghost. A family all unhappy in their own ways. The investigating magistrate leading the search for the guilty party has terminal cancer (this is crucial to the unfolding of the narrative). But it's not all Occult and murder, radical RNA transfer techniques are also mixed up in this SF Neo-Noir conundrum. Flashbacks are crucial to understanding what really occurred and with changing identities you will have pay close attention to the story. More than one viewing may be necessary to appreciate the fine details of the plot. There are also several twists and reveals as the intrigue develops. An intricate but engaging film. Written & Directed by Cheng Wei-Hao. On Netflix. 8/10.
