Set in the year 2200 A.D., the story unfolds in a future where human migration to space and advanced technology enable memory manipulation. Naoki and Mayumi, who live in a luxury floating residence in space, are the perfect couple that anyone would admire at first glance. Mayumi enjoys ceramics as a hobby, while Naoki is devoted to his own research. They are a peaceful, ideal couple who enjoy elegant music, cooking, and dining in the dining room. However, their true nature is the distorted love of the husband, Naoki, who seeks revenge from his wife who used to love him back in the days when he used to love her, and repeatedly turns her into an android to pursue and recreate his own ideal. This psychopathic suspense romance depicts a "form of love" that could happen anywhere in the near future.

Ishikawa delivers a movie that’s attractive to look at but never more than mildly engaging. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Par H @Parhwy Mar 9, 2026 Previously Saved Version (2024) is a 118-minute-long film I watched on Prime in March 2026. Upfront, I would not rewatch nor recommend this film. Spoiler-free zone ends here. In the first 40 minutes, Naoki (husband) kills Mayumi (wife) several times in the present and in flashbacks. Sure, she’s a robot yet he… murders her. I nearly DNF (did not finish) this film, and this was my second viewing to finish it. It gets mildly interesting at 82 minutes. The final scene at the white Torii gate gave me a glimpse of what the film could have been aka good and interesting. Two of my notes while watching: "This film is long-winded, boring, pointless sci-fi with an exceptional amount of DV. The broken pottery / murdered wife metaphor is goddamn awful. Unnecessary killing scenes" and "Robo-Mayumis stage a robo-rebellion and Naoki goes rogue". CGI is ok however it’s mere backdrop. The Earth’s terminator (light/dark side) moves too fast. The curving objects is rubbish science. 3/10. See more Stephen I @RT73376555 Dec 4, 2024 Beautifully shot. Glad I knew nothing about the plot going in. Japanese SciFi that isn’t anime. See more Lee C @LeeIsMe Nov 23, 2024 Good special effects. Kind of predictable. A harmless somewhat entertaining watch. See more Read all reviews
