Also say Connor

I don't understand English, so I never dared to comment on Hollywood movies. The reason why I wanted to write a few sentences today is mainly because I saw that many Douyou do not have a high evaluation of this film, and they have different opinions from my own. I think this film is pretty good. The film sets up a bad but reunion wedding scene, interspersed with the plot of the dead man's appearance leading the male protagonist through time and space, but the main story is not complicated. Connor and Jenny were childhood sweethearts, but Connor’s shyness in her youth made Jenny fall into the arms of others. The pain of being broken in love, coupled with the instigation of his uncle, made Connor grow into a rotted and troubled swinger brother. For men, first love is an unforgettable feeling. Even after many years, the face of the first lover is blurred, but that innocent feeling is still hard to let go. Connor is very flowery, but he has never harmed women. For a successful photographer as tall and handsome as him, even conservative Chinese women will be ticklish, and it is not surprising that those open foreign women give their arms and embrace. Didn't Jenny also say: "There are two kinds of women, one is that they break up after going to bed, and the other is that they wake up after going to bed and haven't separated." It can be seen that for open foreign women, going to bed does not matter. The key is whether a long-term and stable relationship can be established. If both men and women don’t care, or if you fail to let the other person see that you care, there’s no harm in talking about it. Connor has always been obsessed with Jenny in his bones, but after being abandoned by the woman he loves, he ruthlessly protects himself. It is true that emotionally "the people who have the most initiative are those who don't care." "But power does not equal happiness." Although Connor is surrounded by beautiful women, he has never had the happiness of love. An accident changed Connor's life. The younger brother-in-law found out that his younger brother had an affair with a bridesmaid and escaped from marriage. In order to save the marriage of the younger brother who was dependent on him, Connor opened his heart in front of the younger brother-in-law, expressing his many years of gaming and feelings. No one can guarantee that the one you love will never betray. In high school, Jenny chose others, and it was a fatal blow to Connor, so he no longer gave the true feelings, and learned that King Kong is not bad emotionally. But in the deepest part of Connor's heart, it was still occupied by Jenny. Although he prevented the pain caused by the betrayal of his lover, he could not escape the long-lasting regret caused by missing his lover. If you can make sense of your sister-in-law, you can make sense of yourself. Connor finally got the forgiveness and understanding of his first love, and embraced the beauty. Perhaps the most unacceptable thing for Chinese audiences is that Connor has countless adulterous women. Not only have they not received retribution (according to the Chinese people's opinion, Connor should be the lightest and the lightest, but also suffer from a disease or something), but on the contrary, he has cultivated a righteous result in his emotions. But foreigners do not talk about karma, but it makes Chinese audiences angry. I think this is the reason why this movie is not highly rated. The essence of love is to give without asking for anything in return. The happiness of loving someone is far greater than being loved. People at home and abroad have a consensus on this point.

    The male protagonist is really ugly and has poor acting skills, and he has no chemistry with the heroine. The second male protagonist is a bit like Ao's parents

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past quotes

  • Connor Mead: I am begging you: don't run away. You and Paul have something so rare, so powerful! Don't chicken out now.

    Sandra: "Don't chicken out"? He cheated.

    Connor Mead: Get over it. It was years ago! With some slutty friend of yours! A friend, incidentally, that you're not even mad at. And you know why? Because you don't actually care. You love Paul so much you forgave him the second you heard, and that's what scares you.

    Sandra: You have no idea how I feel. No idea!

    Connor Mead: Yes, I do. I've been in your shoes. You know what? It scared the hell out of me too. What if she hurt me? What if she left me? What if she died? It would have been the end of me. So I cut it short, before she ever could. And you know what? It was the biggest mistake I ever made. And you're making the same mistake right now, and I'll be goddamned if I'm going to sit by and watch. You've got to risk love, Sandra! I didn't and look at me! I'm a lonely ghost of a man. It doesn't mean that you're never going to get hurt, but the pain you feel will never compare to the regret that comes from walking away from love. And from someone who's felt a lot of both, trust me, pain beats regret every day of the week and twice on Sunday. Don't run away. Don't do it.

    Sandra: I can't believe I'm saying this but, uh, I think you might be right.

    Connor Mead: So. Do you want to get married?

    Sandra: I do.

    Connor Mead: You do?

    Sandra: Yes!

  • Uncle Wayne: It's all for your own good. And what's not for your own good is for my entertainment.
