Goodbye Mr. Loser

How do people eat pizza in the future? To tell the truth, it is the peak of recent comedy movies, not relying on vulgar passages, natural and endless jokes, the main actors in place. At the same time, the music is well matched, especially the second generation of officials. It really sets off the harbors in the same period as garbage. However, some of the plot content is too much out of the loop, such as mother Xia, such as beautiful women, rich life must be unhappy.

Xia Luo is married to Madong Mei, but is still in love with his high school crush, Qiuya. On Qiuya's wedding he decides to get drunk and sing to Qiuya a love song. Madong Mei is not very happy with his behavior and attacks him. Xia Luo runs away and hides in the toilet.

But when he leaves it, he is back to his high school days... And now he has a second chance. What will he change? Will he 'conquer' Qiuya's heart?

The story is not to be taken too seriously (even if we actually get a couple of serious moments), and we can see the ending coming from almost the very beginning. But the plot is not really what matters in a time-travelling comedy. A story like this is perfect to be acted and directed with silliness in its heart. That the story is simple and self-centered around Xia Luo could be forgiven if it was funny and with a frantic pace. However the laughs come and go, and the pace is too uneven. That without forgetting that it has a couple of worrisome moments, starting with Xia Luo's penchant to sexually harass Qiuya after he has traveled back in time (even if he believes it is a dream).

"Goodbye Mr.Loser" is a not very original comedy, worth a couple of chuckles, but that is also way overacted and with problems of pace. A middling effort.

Directors Da-Mo Peng and Fei Yan put China back on the comedy world map with work on "Goodbye Mr. Loser".

"Goodbye Mr. Loser" (aka "Xia Luo te fan nao") starts out in a very hilarious way. At a wedding, Xia Luo (played by Teng Shen) gets drunk and get the brilliant idea of singing a love song to his high school crush Qiuya (played by Zhi Wang), whom is getting married to someone else. This love song does not go well with Xia Lou's wife Ma Dong Mei (played by Li Ma). Xia Luo hides in the bathroom, but when he comes back out from hiding, he finds himself back in his glorious high school days. Has he been given a second chance to do things over, or is it a chance to relive his former prime? From there on the movie just keeps up its established hilarious atmosphere and keeps adding on to that. And writers and directors Da-Mo Peng and Fei Yan really deserve a big, big thumbs up on their accomplishment with "Goodbye Mr. Loser".

There are so many funny moments throughout the course of this movie, and I found myself laughing hard so many times. I was thoroughly enjoying myself throughout the course of this movie, and I really liked the storyline.

Furthermore, the characters in the movie were so well-rounded and detailed and unique. The characters in "Goodbye Mr. Loser" are colorful, memorable and outstanding, really adding a lot of flavor to the storyline.

The cast list had some great talents to it, and people were doing really good jobs in bringing their characters to life on the screen as they performed in "Goodbye Mr. Loser".

If you enjoy Asian cinema and comedies, then you should definitely take the chance to watch "Goodbye Mr. Loser" if you have the chance, because this is a memorable and entertaining movie.

Teng Shen is an undignified man who lives an unhappy life with his wife. He is given another shot at his life; after he blacks out, getting drunk at his old crush's wedding. He wakes up in his old classroom back in his high-school days. Yes he goes back in time! Not a sci-fi by any means, but a good romantic comedy. The film is a fun ride of quick humour and good music. The script is well written and the characters well enacted. I was into the film from first to last, not a second of boredom! A feel-good movie worth your time. It does offer a powerful hidden-morale but that's for you to find out.

Enjoy!!

I was expecting a simple comedy but was touched by the love story. It is about a married man who did not know what he wanted. The leading character, Xia Luo, went to the wedding party of his high school crush, when he drank too much and started to re-iterate his "love" for her. His current wife, who was in the same high school class, came to the party and of course chaos followed, until he passed out from the alcohol. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in his high school class.

The story developed from there, when Xia Luo was doing everything to get his crush to like him. At the same time, the wife had loved him since forever. It could have been a silly love triangle story, but the wife line had a lot of touching moments. So who did Xia Luo choose?

The movie has quite some funny moments, nothing legendarily funny but good enough. Surprisingly it also made me cry. Overall a light comedy with a moving love story.
