  • Lack of Material

    I appreciate the movie's attempt to stress on environment protection. Yuqi Zhang is very beautiful. Deng Chao made an effort to pull of a comedy.

    The story is weak and does not make sense. There is not much material with a lot of cliche moments. The next moments are very predictable. The jokes are not too funny, although tried fairly hard. There is not much acting either. Overall meh.

  • Loving Someone as Who They Are

    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.

  • Tale vs Reality

    The movie confuses me. It is alternating between reality and fairy tale throughout, without convincing me with either. I agree with the other reviewers, the father character, with all good intentions both from the film maker and in the story, is not real, at all, almost felt as if he had multiple personality. He promised things clearly impossible, which was the tale; while his story with the jail and all, was reality. I am not saying this cannot work, but the film did not pull it off. The son character was rather bland, yet making strange moves that did not fit the character. The story is weak with non-impressive acting.
