      This is a story about having an extramarital affair with shit luck

      I don't understand what spirit the film is promoting, where is the positive direction?

      The prudish police first secretly greeted the hostess in the restaurant, and then, under the guise of making a promise, gave half of the joint property of the husband and wife to the hostess who intends to become a mistress, and the green tea bitch's attitude towards accepting gifts is from beginning to end. He was so unceremonious with peace of mind that as soon as he got the money, he immediately...

      It Could Happen to You

      This is my first time writing a film review, a new goal for myself in 2014. When I first saw this movie, I was attracted by the Chinese title "Story of the City". There is no doubt that it must be a very romantic movie. In fact, I also watched it purely for Nicholas.
        What impresses me most in the film is that the "bad guy" played by Nicholas always repeats this sentence: "Promise is a promise." I don't know what kind of "good guy" can be willing to win the lottery Half a million dollars...

      Love of Life

      This movie is full of love! It is kind, sunny and romantic love! So beautiful, as beautiful as the heroine's smile!
              Many directors like to criticize reality and do some weird things to reflect the indifference between people and to reflect the total bad in reality. But what's the use of this? You are nothing but a idiot! You let the audience sigh and deceive the sympathy! You lied to the audience to agree, making the indifference between people more logical! Expounding negative...

      I don't like this movie, it's not for modern people

      Charlie is definitely not a good man. You can say Charlie is kind and generous, or Molly is vain and selfish, but an unhappy marriage is never the wife's fault alone. Charlie's generosity has no bottom line. He will distribute the lottery prizes of the husband and wife to this person and that person for a while, but all without Jasmine's knowledge. He never consulted with his wife, always saying "I'M SORRY" after the incident. He may be tolerant of others, but when facing his wife alone, his...

      Love, life, has nothing to do with money.

      A movie that looks very fairy tale, although it is unsurprisingly arranged with a perfect ending - the good guys get their rewards and the bad guys get what they deserve. But I have to say that such a good story can still provide a lot of positive energy to us living in such a realistic society.
            
            Even if I become rich, I will not change. Yes, Charlie's stubborn principle actually fully reflects what I once believed. It's such a simple life, how beautiful, and indisputable...

      This kind of love story is indeed a bit too idealistic and romantic. Kady and the beautiful protagonist are also high-profile characters, but I still like this kind of romantic comedy. One of Katie's films is missing one. ....

    Movie quotes

    • Muriel Lang: I mean, if he was on the take, at least I would say, "Okay. He has initiative."

    • Muriel's Customer: My sister was married to a cop for ten years. It's a no-win situation. Either they're honest and you're broke, or they're crooks and they never come home.

      Muriel Lang: So, your sister - what'd she do?

      Muriel's Customer: She left the cop and married an electrician. That's your real money.

    • Muriel Lang: One bedroom in Queens is not my idea of living.

      Charlie Lang: One bedroom in Queens is fine. If we had kids... if we had kids, that'd be another story.

      Muriel Lang: We don't have the money to have kids.

      Charlie Lang: Of course we have the money to have kids. Cops have kids. Firemen have kids. If only rich people had kids, there wouldn't be public schools.
