This kind of movie is like listening to a successful speech. When you listen to it, the blood is boiling, but after listening to it, it is too smooth to think about it. The protagonist met so many employees who worked wholeheartedly for him, and in the end, everyone succeeded. It was really a miracle like the title of the film. Douban can't open up the discussion and reduce it by another star.

"Nice View" attempts to replicate the gritty realism of *"Dying to Survive",but devolves into a heavily orchestrated melodrama. The protagonist's "miracle" hinges on contrived coincidences-catching a train, chasing thieves, and last-minute saviors-each crisis resolved with unrealistic ease. While Yi Yangqianxi delivers a committed performance, his character lacks depth, and the sibling bond feels superficial. Supporting roles are reduced to mere plot devices. The film relies on slow-motion shots and swelling music to manipulate emotions, masking its narrative dishonesty-it peddles a fairy-tale "hard work guarantees success" message while sidestepping the systemic barriers facing the underclass. Ultimately, this is just a polished, hollow motivational fable disguised as social realism.

The storyline is pretty predictable, we can make a guess that it will be HE with a guaranteed success but the casts actually did a good job telling the story.

Yeah this movie has it all. If you just want a movie to get you to laugh and cry, feel inspired and feel helpless, then this is for you

Great acting, visuals were decent, overall just a good movie.

It's a theme that has been repeated many times - an individual struggling against seeming insurmountable odds to come to the aid of a loved one. In this case, it's a young cell phone repairman needing to raise money to provide a critical operation for his younger sister.

The brother takes a gamble with his small business and what limited resources he has to purchase a large shipment of defective cell phones intending to refurbish them and resell them at a profit. When Chinese law is suddenly changed to outlaw the sale of refurbished products, he goes further out on a limb financially to strike up a deal with the original cell phone manufacturer to repair the cell phones so that they can be sold as new inventory. While the script will be familiar to most, showing how the struggle could play out in Chinese culture made it just interesting enough to stick with it to the end.

The storyline is very predictable and while the actors representing the main characters are generally portrayed realistically, some of the supporting actors tend to overplay their parts lending a slightly amateurish feel at times. Not a great film, but if you like international settings, it could be worth your while.
