"Like Mu Love", as the name suggests, Xiaoyang is in such an environment, with the care of her grandmother, the care of her boyfriend, and the care of the elderly, she is just like Mu Aihe.

But none of the three seemed to have entered her heart. We can see from the details that the reason why my grandmother came to visit Xiaoyang is to know that she is now doing a prostitute, from the photos in her message and so on. While watching the film, I also thought that Xiaoyang didn't go to see his grandmother. Is it too cruel? But if you think about it, if it were me, I might choose not to go. A calm answer is not as good as a little hope, and it may bring more concern to people.

Boyfriend's love is domineering and macho for Xiao Yang, whether it's looking at the tiles of the toilet in the bar, or being presumptuous outside the old man's house afterwards. His love for Xiaoyang is possession and control. He has never entered Xiaoyang's heart, and all the stories have been exchanged for his last madness.

The old man's love is a one-sided sacrifice. From the eyes, I can see helplessness and concern. I don't know if there is any desire. But from the words of his neighbors, it can be seen that the old man's kind of loneliness, his daughter may have not come to see him for a long time. Xiao Yang's loneliness in Tokyo and the old man's loneliness just collided, resulting in a bond like a river of love, which is emotional.

I don't understand what many people think about this movie. If you want to watch those movies, why don't you choose to close them, but you want to have fun for a while, instead of thinking about the director's intentions?

The key word of the love river lies in the word "such as", "if", an illusion, which covers life with a stable and orderly veil, Professor The "if" of the deceased wife and the "if" of the auto mechanic are the schoolgirls who go to school safely, and if accidentally a gust of wind blows off the veil covering the truth, it is howling, furious, broken, falling to the ground ...

    Abbas blended the reality of Japan into the deepest feelings of the protagonist, Akiko's helplessness as she walked around the square again and again to look at her grandmother, and the tiredness of putting on red lips but sleeping at the professor's house; the film is where the glass is broken. When it comes to an abrupt end, the loneliness that originally collided will burst out... This is the charm of Abbas' films, he doesn't give you a predetermined ending, but just lets you feel it. I miss him often, often. (9.3/10)
