One and Only

I watched this movie when I was in Beijing a week ago.

In the fast-paced world we live in, each of us can sometimes become restless, and even a minor setback can lead to complaints about life's unfairness. We complain about not being born into a wealthy or influential family, and lament starting off at a disadvantage.

However, brave individuals always explore the world first. Hopefully, each of us can be as courageous as Chen Shuo in the movie, bravely being ourselves and pursuing our dreams. As the film says, if we never hit rock bottom, how can we bounce back? Indeed, one can avoid death if they don't live, and there's no loss if one doesn't try. If we manage to avoid extreme happiness, we might also escape the onslaught of sorrow. Living fervently and sincerely is the greatest form of self-respect.

Similarly, in this movie, every role, no matter how small, lives with diligence, positivity, and fervor. Especially when Chen Shuo's mother tells him that "no" can also mean "yes." Because mothers only wish for us to live healthily and happily. Although our own mothers might not have spoken those exact words to us, as we grow older, hearing them becomes a way of healing and compensating ourselves.

As we left the movie theater, my friends and I all agreed that "One and Only" is suitable for all ages. It seems to ignite and explode the passion and desires hidden deep within each of us, as well as our dreams and hopes, in whatever way possible.

I had some doubts initially despite recommendations from friends, thinking it might be good, but I never expected it to exceed all my expectations. What possessed Yibo? The three his new films this year are all of high quality, seamlessly blending reality with enchantment. It's exhilarating; this is true passion, true youth.

One and Only is about enthusiasm & dreams of Young boy who is chasing his passionate dreams in difficulties and life hardships.

The story is simple and easy to understand (unlike Hidden Blade which is art-house film)

Some netizens think that due to this is YIBO's core and genre so that he can act really well naturally in movie. But I would like to point out that Chen Shuo and YIBO's characters are totally different personalities, nature, attitudes. Only loving dances and chasing street dance is the same in between them.

Yibo need to overcome and make sure his strong superior rich aura & personality. Because Chen shuo is simple, honest, poor, patient, very humble boy in movie.

So that Yibo shapes this character because this is character Yibo plays as. Yibo is Talented actor so he is acting out Chen shuo diligently.

He makes everyone believes that he is acting in true colours in that role he plays.

It is an actor's ability to make others believe in what he acts in.

There are some heart warming moments after movie is finished, most of Young children came out and danced with credits in front of seatings. This make me so moving and enthusiasm and youthful energy.

Even the person who never watches hip-hop(street dance) & doesn't know the rules of street dance competition, you can understand the last 20 min competition part easily.

Many years later, many people will remember that there was such a street dance movie in 🇨🇳 ,& many people will fall in love with street dance because of this movie.

Before this movie is produced and during Street dance of China shows (SDC), One of bboy said and posted, who witnessed the positive change brought abt by Yibo, that "The street dance circle has never been like this. May be a few years or decades later, when we talk about the development history of domestic street dance, the turning point will be Wang Yibo "

All stars shine brightly In this movie. I can wholeheartedly feel their passion for street dance and their resilience to negativities. The final 20 minutes are sth really mesmerizing - worth every penny of my ticket and you won't regret your decision. I don't understand why there are so many low ratings but without any negative reviews - does not seem normal ...

YES I would Recommend this movie without any reservation. No matter you like street dance or not, I am sure you will find a lot to feel for and sth worth cheering for and laughing about. I felt really energized after watching and would like to see more people feel the same positivity :)

Only And Only is a light comedy with breakdance as the theme.

Breakdancing is a new event in Asian Games this year and also the coming up Paris 2024 Olympics. Almost the whole Chinese national team and multiple famous world street dance champions are in the final competition in the last part of the movie. I think just the appearance of these professionals already worth a movie ticket.

The final competition at the end of the movie is definitely what audience talks about the most. At times, I did feel a bit dizzy by the moves of the dancers. To me, breaking does resemble gymnastics, but the moves are much faster. There are a lot of jaw-dropping moments during the final competition scenes and I could feel my body temperature rising. Theaters need to turn up the air conditioning for the audience LOL.

I don't know much about street dance, but I can still empathize with the dancers in the movie because they are also a group of ordinary people. Watch this film, you will be affected by the passion in the dancers' hearts, and remember the dreams we gave up before. At the same time, the film will also tell you that sometimes failure is not because you are not good enough, it is OK to fail. There are too many ways to interpret this film, the director is clever, he let every ordinary person can find their own emotional projection area in the film, all the laughter, tears and even the burning point, are so natural, without a trace of deliberate, even the last tear has not ended, the next laugh point comes one after another, directly hit the heart.
