Lapse (2020)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

Chengming, a university student who accidentally gains supernatural powers, finds out that he loses his memory every time he uses them and starts recording his daily life using his phone. Chengming and the witnesses of his accident, Lin and Hwei, grow closer together as they experiment with Chengming's supernatural powers. Chengming starts falling in love with Lin but gets anxious when he finds out that she is from a wealthy family, unlike his own background. Chengming realizes that his superpowers are not adding any value to his life when he is persuaded by Hwei to invade the factory owner that hurt his mother. He heads over to the factory solely relying on Hwei's camera.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
