Awesome treasure movie. I don’t understand why the score is so low...

I just finished watching it last weekend and watched it twice in one go. Praise! ! ! A great light comedy of love! ! ! Super recommended! ! !

Although the plot is not novel (you can basically guess the end by looking at the beginning), it is not boring at all. The key is that I am really happy after reading it.

Talk about the highlights of several aspects:

  1. Brain hole: The biggest brain hole in this film is the part of Keanu Reeves. I won't go into details in order not to be spoiled. It's so funny, I laughed aloud when I saw it twice. Especially the restaurant part and Uber part.
  2. Terrier: Friends who have seen Huang Ali’s talk show will find a few small sections that echo the talk show in the movie, which is very funny
  3. Gender issues: The bright line of the story is the growth of the heroine and regaining oneself; the dark line is the growth of the heroine, removing the shackles that he puts on himself. If you only look at some fragments or lines, you will feel that it is a "cool film" for women, but if you think carefully, you will find that it is not. This movie does not cater to a certain gender, but sincerely discusses love, gender, and growth.
  4. Actors: Huang Ali and Randall Park are probably my favorite Asian American actors these days (no, no one can exceed the status of Yuling sister). Needless to say, Huang Ali's talk show. Randall Park’s "First Coming" is really a treasure series! In addition, the same American comedy (including newcomers and two big non-guess) is performed with Asian faces, and the sense of substitution will be much stronger!
