Hua deng chu shang (2021)
Part Two O M G
If you feel part one is just kind of lukewarm just WAIT TILL PART TWO and i think everything from casts, cinematography, to director are all on steroid with heavy twists.
Vincenzo: Episode #1.11 (2021)
This ep could be summarized in 3 emojis:
Pinched fingers + corn salad
also finally the mafia game showed up and the captains of the red and blue (or black and white) teams showed up and met face to face BOTH at the opening scene and the ending scene! Gee! Incredible scripting and directing works!
Vincenzo: Episode #1.7 (2021)
LOL
Just could not stop laughing at the ending scene of this ep!
Miseuteo Shunshain (2018)
This is the Korean version of Les Misérable
An epic drama series with great cinematography, awesome ensemble cast and a touching Chosun Le Mis story.
Beijing Blues (2012)
a multimedia contains no elements as a movie
This multimedia contains no essential elements of a quality movie: The-Blair-Witch-Project quality cinematography, creepy score, zero costume design, and non-existence screenplay.
Even its English title "Beijing Blues" for a crime docudrama implies it's a copycat of "NYPD Blues" / "Blue Blood". The problem is there is not even one blue shirt policeman in this clip. Yet there are ten or hundreds times more thieves, pickpockets, muggers, swindlers in one Haidin District of Beijing than you would see in your daily life. So who would like to visit the beautiful Beijing then? If the title is rephrased as "Mugging all the way in Beijing" I might give it a 5.
Heung joh chow heung yau chow (2003)
Great Fairy Tale for Grownups
This movie is a great adaptation from the book by the renown artist Jimmy from Taiwan. Not only faithfully materializing the conception from the poetic illustrations in the book, the movie also adds witty dialogs and funny buffoon performance of the supporting roles for the whole story, which does not exist in the original. The movie debuted as number 1 in the box offices of Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. The original book has been sold for more than tens of thousands copies in more than five languages.
Personally I like this movie very much as a great love story and fairy tail for the grownups. I believe the movies might be more touching for the Asians, (especially for the residents in Taipei or Taiwan, where I came from and the movie filmed) since the whole movie surrounds only one single idea in Chinese as "Yuan-fen", which is deep rooted in Asians' mind and personally I think there is still not a proper vocab for translation. ("Fate" is close but not exact.) And the story, the people, and the scenes are so familiar for me that it just like my neighbor's story.
Another reason I might suggest to treat this movie as a fairy tale is that they do have many goofs or things seems not so logical in the movie, as described by other users. But who cares? Just like nobody questions why the lion in the wizard of oz is so coward. This is still a great love story and grownup fairy tail for me.
