| Sydney Morning HeraldJake WilsonIn style and sensibility, [it] echoes another recent Chinese "chick flick", 20 Once Again. Both films are aimed at a youth market, yet both have a conservative slant, encouraging the younger generation to retain the prudent virtues of times gone by. |
| User Reviewray hThis is a romantic drama set in China. We follow the love lives of a young woman and her post-WWII grandmother. The grandmother's story is told in smooth flashbacks. The story was modestly interesting. But, when viewed as a whole; there was not much going on. This film was aimed squarely at young women. The film was beautifully shot. All of the actors were competent. The principal lead characters were all uniformly good looking; no surprise there. The two actress leads were particularly attractive. That always helps a film's success. For a romantic drama, there was virtually no passion or even inferred sexuality. The audience was left to wonder when, or if, the characters ever consummated their romance. Everyone was fully clothed. When characters spent the nite together the actress was clothed under the sheets and her partner was fully clothed on top of the sheets. The film had a 1950's Western sensibility/vibe to it. Still, it was a pleasant, though somewhat bland, trip to the flics. |
| User ReviewJoe wThis one of the funniest movie I've seen in a while, the story line is so cliche it's absurdly funny. Towards the end of the movie I was laughing so hard of the story development even the more supposedly serious funeral scene I was laughing. |
