The plot is breathtaking and full of suspense. You can never learn of the truth until the very last minute. It comes to another climax on the last scene in which Akash pokes the can on the ground skillfully and the movie ends suddenly. It really leaves us the probability to interpret it from different perspectives.

The movie theater was filled with laughter due to the skillful performance of Ma Li and Wei Xiang. We can always believe in their acting. It seems that the script was adapted from a Japanese movie, thus the production crew had enough time to refine the setting and plot to make them attractive. The only goal of the movie is to make you laugh and obviously it succeeded. But the jokes are simple and direct so that you will not want to watch it for a second time. Anyway, congratulations to Wei Xiang on his first leading role in a movie. He is a good actor and deserves more attention and praise.

I always believe that the most impressive and moving story is just our daily life, in which we can empathize with the characters naturally. And The Making of an Ordinary Woman is such an excellent example that affects me deeply even though the storyline is set in Taiwan and I am from Chinese mainland. Although I cannot understand Taiwanese dialect spoken in the episodes, it really sounds familiar to me because we will speak dialect in our hometown as well and it evokes memories of my youth when scenes of childhood of Chen Chia-Ling appear. Technically speaking, the first season is better because the oranization of past and present things is much smoother. However, the overall quality of the series deserves highest rating.
