By my personal standards, it is not humorous enough as a comedy... Also, the values are too "correct". Is the only way to live a happy life to be a perfect and respected person? The transition of the hero's concept is a bit too sloppy and scribbled, except for the scene of jumping off the building.
Of course, this setting is very interesting: the male protagonist is a pretentious weather announcer, has no family, and is full of dissatisfaction with life. He was trapped there when he went to the groundhog town to interview Groundhog Day (similar to the first day of the Lunar New Year) for the fourth consecutive year, and cycled the day over and over again. At first he was very happy, boldly indulged, and did a lot of things that he hadn't dared to do before. Anyway, he didn't have to take any responsibility. When he woke up the next day, everything was refreshed, and he was a hero again. He teased a lot of women, only to find out that he really loves his colleague (the heroine). He's like playing a game, he's attacking the heroine over and over again, touching her from her family situation to her ideals in life. But not as smooth as he flirted with other women, every night ends with a slap of the heroine. I have to say that the heroine is too good at appraising scum. Slowly he got bored. He tried countless suicides, tried to confide in the heroine, and even tried unreliable psychological counseling. "Theoretically, I am a non-existent person," he said to the heroine. On that day, he opened his heart to the heroine, and the two of them became much closer. He seemed to have a knack for it, and he was determined to become a real good person, a heroine's ideal spouse. He studied piano, created ice sculptures, and devoted the most selfless kindness to everyone in the town. At the last dinner, everyone in the town came to thank him. The heroine was already deeply impressed by his charm on this day, and the two naturally spent an unforgettable night. When he woke up the next day, the actor found himself finally out of this cycle. He kissed the heroine and said that today is tomorrow, and tomorrow is good news. He decided to live in this small town with the hostess from now on.
At first glance, it looks very inspirational. Trapping the actor on this day is like fate arranging him in this boring groundhog town, forcing him to reflect and purify his soul. When he succeeded in purification, he became a real star loved by everyone in the small town, won the heart of the heroine, and smoothly got out of this cycle. But I am more interested in whether the condition for getting out of the cycle is love or perfect morality? Was all of this he made out of inner choice, or just catered to the heroine's expectations?
I admit that the awakening of the soul is almost the same step: you first fall, first exile yourself to the abyss of desire, then touch the emptiness behind the desire, then become discouraged, despair, suicide, and then recover from the trauma, then you can truly Know what you really want. What if there was no one he loved on the day he was trapped? Without love, no affection, and no social and emotional connection, can he find his own way of salvation?
