EVERY DAY
Watchable. The book must be cheesy. The author, David Levithan, consulted on the movie and it's sleazy. The concept is similar to 뷰티 인사이드 ("The Beauty Inside") with the main difference that in the Korean one the protagonist had a different body every day but it was his/her own. In the American one the person inhabits other people's physical selves. The US teen melodrama is no match for the Korean masterpiece. It was interesting to compare though: here the soul is only 15, gets once accused of being Satan - no religious motif in the Asian movie, saves somebody's life and the lovers get separated in the end. It's all sappy so even the deeper thoughts here and there get flattened.
