Definitely worth it. Personally.
First, I went to see it just to find out what Jia Ling is like now. I knew she was quiet a large sized lady....and when I heard she lost 100 pounds, and my initial reaction was shock and curiosity. You know, her original weight was 170-180 pounds! My feelings were both stunned and admiring.
Before the moive was released, she told the audience "I hope to bring something to the audience." She did it!!!
First of all, Jia Ling's successful weight loss is probably the most superficial and obvious thing about the movie. I deeply resonate with this because I have been bouncing between losing and regaining weight for years. I've never been able to defeat myself, whether it's my cravings or my bad habit of quick enthusiasm that fades away.
Secondly, I also understood a deeper meaning: We live once, and we should win at least once.
This time, she is living only for herself.
