I refuse to believe this movie's rating is this low in here, usually IMDb is quite reliable but this is not it, not sure if there's some hate or boycott against it and I haven't heard about it though.
The movie is just brilliant, those kind of Chinese movies that they know how to make extremely good.
Starting off showing you the main couple as adults but then taking you back to their past and how they met and how their life together started. It hooks you right in.
The rhythm and pace is perfect and very dynamic and quickly you will be completely lost in their story and will want to know what will happen to them.
The the storytelling in the movie was nothing short of amazing. The script was well-crafted, weaving a narrative that not only engaged the audience but also tugged at the heartstrings. The emotions of the characters were beautifully portrayed, thanks to the skilled writing that allowed us to genuinely feel and connect with their journey.
One standout element was the remarkable growth of the male lead, portrayed by the incredibly talented Zhang Xin Cheng. At only 28 years old, showcased a level of expressiveness and depth that spoke volumes about his acting prowess. It's impressive to witness an actor evolve so much in just a few years ( he was already AWESOME in Go Ahead) and his contribution undoubtedly played a pivotal role in the movie's success.
The characters themselves were written with layers that added complexity and authenticity to their personalities and as the story unfolded, I appreciated how their development was evident, allowing the audience to witness their growth over time. This multi-dimensional approach to character writing added depth to the narrative and made the viewing experience even more satisfying.
One aspect that particularly stood out was the effective use of humor. The subtlety with which it was integrated into the storyline added a layer of lighthearted fun, creating a nice contrast to the emotional depth of the movie. This delicate balance between humor and heartfelt moments showcased the versatility of the storytelling.
The chemistry between our main couple Zhang Xin Cheng and Sun Qian was nothing short of beautiful. What began as a strong bond of friendship, trust, and loyalty evolved into a powerful love story. The passion in Zhang Xin Cheng's eyes as he portrayed his character's emotions was palpable and added an extra layer of authenticity to the romance.
In conclusion, I believe this is a great movie you shouldn't miss, you will regret it if you don't watch it so please go ahead ( see what I did there?? ;) ) and add it to your list now!
