Finding Mr. Right (2013)

Powerful

For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Finding Mr. Right is a decent, well-executed romantic comedy that stands out among many China film productions. It's smart, occasionally funny at times, and surprisingly touching, drawing numerous references from the classic romantic comedy, 'Sleepless in Seattle', which influences the film's climax.It's charming and somewhat delightful to watch the lead female character, Jia Jia's personal transformation from a spoilt, obnoxious, stubborn, high maintenance, materialistic, hateful woman to a down-to-earth, caring and admirable grown mother. It's a strong character that requires good performance, which Tang Wei delivers with her charming presence.Finding Mr. Right offers nothing new in the genre and it may certainly look common or feels like any romantic comedies out there by others, but the solid storytelling,convincing love chemistry between the two lead characters allow it to shine. It's a significant improvement, or possibly a breakthrough for the Chinese film industry.

Romances the most crucial point is the casting, the heroine of the audience like it or not, a man will not make fantasy female audience, it is vital that other scenes, shapes, lines, are role. Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo such a combination is seductive, and the new idea of ​​audience interest and recognition, called this film the most crucial. Movie characters grow around Tang Wei gradually transformed from a worships money and girls know what is most needed. Overall, her spiritual growth in this story is completed, a reality more closely tied to the theme, and be able to speak to understand the audience agree to do this, in terms of really made ​​films can be considered victory. Tang Wei and Wu Xiubo pursuing a classic emotional journey in the film began to look at each other not pleasing to the eye, after understanding gradually seduces route. Xiubo acting bring to live a little too far Tang Wei, increase the credibility of this relationship. Empire State Building reunion of the classic plot had earned in the "Sleepless in Seattle" tears of the female audience, "encounter Seattle" copy of the trip, although a little too clever, but to convince the audience does not care about so more details, look forward to usher in a happy ending. So, the domestic romantic drama at the present stage, the most important thing is to choose the right actor and Exotic plot. As for the higher stage to encourage female audience to find themselves, and so the theme is temporarily not able to complete the task at this stage.

excited to write the first ever movie review on IMDb--since finally the ban of the website has been lifted. this movie shouldn't have been the one i start with because it isn't good. i planned to watch Django unchained with my bf while found out it was banned in China. so we watched that instead because he told me it was good. so i dumped him afterward for bad movie choice. first of all, it is very popular in China for some reasons. there ain't many good foreign movies that are allowed to show in cinemas in China thus people's aesthetic view for movie still remain on the basic level. most Chinese movies achieve its popularity by mass promotion and featuring famous/attractive actors/actresses. this is one of these kind of movies. the story line is a bit flat. it tells a story of a pretty gold digger who was a mistress of a rich businessman from BJ met someone in Seatle and found true love. she realised true love and happiness wasn't about money. i find either the script writing or how the theme was presented is very boring. there are a few plots are not smoothly presented at all. Tang Wei is very pretty, but her acting is awful. i don't see there was a spark or chemistry between two leading roles. but in reality, in China, i never see much spark between most couples which is sad. i don't see the passion in their eyes!!! the only bit i would praise about this film is that in an era of deteriorating morality of a society, being a mistress and gold digger is not uncommon, and it is not something to be ashamed of, a movie like this does remind Chinese people the true meaning of love and happiness. it based in reality ground and it presents positive meaning. Chinese film industry has a long way to go. I'm not going to watch another Chinese film any time soon.

Ye, it isn't perfect or classic, but it will be a milestone on the development of China film production. All elements that should appear in a romantic movie are included in this film, and they are not just rote, but experienced and nature.So, what about our standard of reviews? Maybe shouldn't absolutely, but relatively? Another question, are we sure about our absolute standard that is corrective all the time, from 1900 to 2100? If can't be all the time, what about all the world?In my opinion, as to China romantic film now days,this movie has a important meaning， and it deserve better rate.
