Us and Them

This movie is so good to be true. The movie itself beautifully captured every single scene, emotion inside and it described how realistic the relationship can be. Both of main characters did an excellent job on how they captured their character's relationship, journey and story into something that incredibly wonderful and beautiful.

This is an emotional feast. This is the first time I've watched a Chinese movie with subtitles (don't settle for the english dubbed version) so I'm sure some cultural nuances were missed but the human story spoke volumes. It is a slow unpacking of a relationship over many years but it is worth the journey. The acting is superb. The premise is poignant. It's themes are enduring. The music was beautiful. The inserts while the credits roll sum unpack the whole movie in a beautiful way. - don't miss them. I give this film an 8 (great) out of 10. {Romantic Drama}. Available on Netflix as US AND THEM.

I usually do not like to watch subtitled movies since reading the subtitles can be distracting. I came across this movie on Netflix and decided to give it a go and I am very glad that I did. The story itself is nothing extraordinary. However, the movie does an excellent job in building up the characters and drawing you closer to them. I think it is well worth the journey to spend time with these characters and look back to your own unfulfilled love or the ups and downs of fulfilled love. There is also an underlying theme about family, which was carefully and masterfully woven into the story.

A word of caution. Watch the end credits all the way through.

I suppose many people living in big cities could relate to the movie.

The initial bitterlove was sweet. Despite the financial difficulties, the fact that the two genuinely love and care for each other and that they share the aim of pursuing better future is comforting. But it doesn't last long when the reality hits, especially when the boy is still a boy. He is lost. He forgets what the girl really wants. She doesn't really want a house. She just wants a home.

This movie also tells about parents' perspective as regards their son's relationship. The father part is extremely touching and emotional. That makes this movie stand out from other typical romance movie. A must watch.

What a beautiful movie. Heart warming and real. Very good acting. Nice music. I loved 5he movie
