Perdi o Dia dos Namorados

A great opportunity to watch local Taiwanese daily living. I also enjoy the comedy part and how real the communication between actors.

Recently I been watching a lot of Taiwanese movies and throughly enjoy each and every one of it.. the standard of these movies had improved tremendously..

Coming back to this review I was actually quite entertained for two hours without a doubt that this is a well acted and written. It mays contain not only romance but some sci-fi element.. I can see the bad comments about this movie regarding a stalker that turn the movie into a rom com

To be honest when I watched the frozen time scene.. the first thing that come in mind why don't he robbed the bank or the frozen ppl instead he just went to look for his crush... doesn't it sound stupid on a second thought I was love that conquers all things not all the money in the world

It make me realise this.. the missing Valentine is a funny romance comedy that really shows the local Taiwan culture and the ending song absolutely kills it

Finally a shout out to Taiwan filmmaker to keep one making great movies.

Structure of the story and light-hearted yet profound music play significant roles in this "quiet" romantic comedy that shines, which is a rare case even in Chinese-language cinema. (Although most of the dialogue is done in Mandarin, most of the humor lies not verbally, or precisely speaking, also lies not on Taiwanese the local dialect.) Comedic timing was almost pure and perfect for me until I was surprised by my tears when I saw a man showing up onto the night bus in that semi-philosophical sequence towards the end of the movie. All of a sudden, I realized it's way more than a comedy. Wow!

"Love yourself well, because someone out there has been in love with you." As this shows up on screen like a last missing piece for this poetic modern fantasy about love and lost and found... I feel happily relieved, and of course, heart-warmed. It feels like watching Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain years ago.

Sweet, touching, meaningful film done in a imaginative way. however the usual eccentric overacting that taiwan/japan/korea audiences love might not be for everyone.

The storyline is rich and entertaining and touching. It's a love story with some mysterious sci fic parts involved. With all different themes put in a movie it's surprising natural and good. The touching part exist as well. Like a topnotch fusion dish. Quite special Taiwan movie.
