As we all know, Zhu Haowei likes to make such strange movies...
The opening paragraph of Michelle Yeoh is very beautiful, but the plot at the beginning also reflects the emptiness of the film's connotation and the very clichéd values it expresses.
The lady is really beautiful. Her mother looks like the monkey version of Wu Junru, how could she find such an ugly actor!
Teacher Lu Yan is so beautiful that I cry.
So why do all their family speak English? The inexplicable Chinese soundtrack... In addition to madly showing the life of the so-called Rich Asians, in fact, what the film wants to express most is the attraction of American characteristics to Asians. Didn't the male protagonist say to the female protagonist: "You and I grew up with me. The girls I've seen are different." You must know that the male protagonist's setting has grown up in Asia since he was a child. There is a line in the middle, the male protagonist said to his grandmother: "This is my girlfriend" and turned into "This is my good friend"... The poor Chinese of the male and female protagonists is also drunk. The roles of the male protagonist's gay cousin and the female protagonist's schoolmate are quite interesting. The only one of these actors who can speak Chinese well is Lu Yan. Wedding night incense, can you believe it?
The design of the scene is really good, the manor's manor, the house where the short-lived flowers are placed, the grand staircase of their house...especially the wedding scene, it is really a very modern Chinese-style decoration. There is a scene where grandma talks to Richel in the bamboo forest, which is too beautiful, like a dream.
The last scene is really gorgeous and beautiful, although I don't know what building it is (the roofs of the three buildings are connected together).
The problem with this movie is that these people are so perfect that one can't fault them at all. The plot is too weak to be called unreasonable at all, but it simply doesn't make sense.
But in other words, the repercussions of this film in the United States may be precisely because Americans' understanding of it is indeed different from ours. As another Hollywood all-Asian cast for more than 20 years, it is indeed also A historic step has been taken.
I also look forward to seeing more Stories of Asians internationally.
