Outstanding Film |
As dry as a bottle of gin but not as much fun until Radish returns to spice things up. With a hefty run time this family drama from Taiwan hides behind the clouds too long before shining but does produce a ray or two before sunset.
A commercial movie made for easy tears and promoted as a masterpiece. This movie is not able to describe and analyze its own topics and characters.
Basically a good film based on family relations or I should say human relationships in general. And we get to glimpse some of the beautiful landscapes of Taipei, a country now on my must-visit list.
The character they portray is too natural that there is no sign of acting.it's seems u are watching a documentary.
Very interesting story line with very simple dialogues with great impact. All the characters have done excellent job.
This movie needed serious editing. It's way too long.
A dense, provoking and heartbreaking story that unfolds through the dialogues and faces of the dedicated actors with a unique fluidity uncommon in western movies. Mong-hong Chung isn't afraid of ditching a typical pace of storytelling and has carefully structured his visual poem to gradually challenge your perception of life.
Family movie who really related to life, you dont know inside of a person and when you do good things there always something distrub you.
It's a masterpiece. The story is amazing, brilliant, provoking, realistic and very well written.
