skylee Posted October 29, 2011 at 05:07 AM Report Share Posted October 29, 2011 at 05:07 AM This Taiwanese film has been very well received in Hong Kong. I am going to see it this weekend. Has anyone seen it? Any views? Trailer on youku -> http://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMjc0MjU0NzQ0.html Trailer on youtube -> 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skylee Posted October 30, 2011 at 03:00 PM Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 at 03:00 PM I watched this film yesterday. While it is an enjoyable film, I don't really get what the rave is about. Sure the actors are young and energetic and good looking and the story is fun. But I don't think there is much originality / drama / excitement there. What I think is that the film reminds people of their own youth, a kind of nostalgia, and somehow people need it now. I shared my view with a girl in her twenties today. She absolutely loved the film and was thinking about seeing it a second time in the cinema. This I think is the highest form of admiration from someone who usually enjoys seeing films on the internet free of charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creamyhorror Posted October 30, 2011 at 03:37 PM Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 at 03:37 PM Saw a poster for this film here in Singapore. Looked like a teenage coming-of-age story. Taiwan has nice country/small-town scenery, which strikes me as an advantage over Hongkong's cityscape for such flicks. If the reviews come out positive I may get a group together to see it.
