Highly Overrated But Still Good
Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
A movie that is shockingly honest.It restores your faith in humanity.
I saw this movie in Cantonese ten years ago and in English last night. In a nutshell, the movie is about a young girl dying, losing and gaining hope, and finding love. The movie is well made and all the main actors and supporting actors render a very good performance, including Wai Man Chen who was only 22 years old when the film was made and has been criticized for giving an unappealing performance. I am still confused with some of the images filmed in Scotland. Nevertheless, the scenes show the skills of the cinematographer and somewhat explain the character of the overseas Chinese and Lam's decision to love, return home, and fight her illness. Although Lam dies at the end, the director in the last scene magically turns the film around into a celebration of life.
AMAZING!!! This has got to be one of my favorite movie of all time. When I started watching it, I didn't think I would enjoy it, but what a surprise. I like the most about the many small characters in this movie, especially the 3-year-old girl and her drawing; it was so touching that I had goosebumps. The whole movie, IMHO, was "magical", all the way until the end. Most highly recommended.
Kelly Chan played her part as a woman with cancer searching for hope. She may have been the main character, but more endearing than her rigidity and hidden self-pity is Mr. Worn's (Takeshi Kaneshiro) belief in life and it's magic.A truly enchanting film. Strange and sporadic at times but wholly endearing.
