Wo bu shi Pan Jin Lian

This film has so much potential. It's got good timing sequences, the cinematography is unique and the style is reminiscent of Wes Anderson.

However, the details is just not quite there. Considering the director's bold move to choose such a small focus frame many aspects lack care.

Raining scenes on the river shows clearly it's not raining in the distance. Many side characters clearly has no acting background with exaggerated body language and tone which was off putting. Some of the actors were not able to mimic the local accent consistently.

Overall a very beautifully filmed movie with some great composition and interesting comedic elements. But if you have the knowledge of the language and quality of media in China, you might have also felt the lack of care because these are very basic cinema mistakes in TV dramas and B-grade movies.
