Wonderful Nightmare (2015)
Viewing Platform: Amazon Prime
A
powerful attorney does whatever it takes to please her influential
and wealthy clients, bullying and taking advantage of the less
educated and vulnerable members of society, until one day when she
accidentally dies before her time. What happens when the soul-sorting
center offers her a chance to live for just one month in another
person's life (in order to correct another error they had made) and
then go back to her normal life? Will she be able to convince the
family that she is a loving stay at home mother and supportive wife,
or will everyone know she's someone different?
*The
premise had promise, and while I was pleased to see the handsome Song
Seung-heon (from “My Princess” 2011), the story didn't really
captivate me. The family still had to lose their mother, and there
wasn't any guarantee the attorney lady would be able to join the
family as the step-mother. There are a couple F-bombs and some
sad/scary situations where young girls are taken advantage of, or
nearly so, and those are hard to watch. I wouldn't watch this again.*
