| Bangkok PostKong RithdeeAs for non-Chinese audiences, the movie, a decade-spanning drama-comedy about three buddies who build an English-tutoring empire from scratch, is earnest and pedestrian. |
| User ReviewJenny YIt's a long time since last 5 star movie. No matter you got a dream, no body care, Peter Chan just told you his dream. And the dream of the 80's China. A big story that when idea worth money. |

| User ReviewJacky LThis film has real heart and passion about it. The friends who create their educational company are represented by fantastic actors who have the audience cheering for them as they take on the top U.S. brass. |
| User ReviewWilliam WThe description of friendship moves me quite a bit. Impressive use of contemporary songs too. |
| User ReviewJackson CStarts off pretty scattershot and unfocused, but eventually settles in to a modestly entertaining movie about ambitious young men making their way to success; validated by American recognition of their success. I've seen a number of these from various countries, some entirely fictional and some based on actual events like this one. So far they've each been only moderately successful as movie entertainment but at least, as opposed to the early 20th century Horatio Alger template popular in America, they are always about self-created successes and people who make their own way based on their own skills and ambitions. |
