I don't know much about cinematography in Far East, because I've only seen a handful of movies from there. Being from Europe, I can't really distinct between movies from China, South Korea, or Japan. I think it's in Japanese movies, where men always shout even in normal conversation -at least it sounds so in my ears.. but then, I don't speak Japanese :-)

Lightning up the stars is quite emotional and entertaining movie. Story is simple and realistic, without pretending to be melodramatic. And so is the cast. They are not just "acting".. they are "real" and very good at that -I hope, you understand what I mean.

To keep it short: If you're in the mood for "light drama", watch this movie before Hollywood decides to do a remake (and makes a cr*p out of it).

"Lighting up the stars" is a fairy tale for grown-ups. I have a sleep disorder and most nights I struggle to fall asleep and stay asleep. The healing effect of the movie is so powerful that I slept over 10 hours on the day I watched it. The message I got from the movie is that even if you have completely ruined your life, there are still ways you can fix it.

Great movie, heart felt and touching. Fast paced with hilarious moments that came naturally. Light hearted story telling but focusing on loss, coping, love and family. Amazing actors. Yilong Zhu pulled off Mo with an awards worthy performance. He changed so much, basically a different person. Very convincing as a rough working class guy at the lowest point of his life. Enyou Yang at her young age played amazingly well. Definitely recommend!

I have been exactly craving for movie like this for a long time. Koreans are the experts in ellicit these kinds of emotions in me like what this films did. Surpisingly this time it comes from china.

The child actress and the lead actor chemistry was fantastic. Wu Xiao wen is so adorable she practically lived the role.

I Could watch this film again and again just for her acting alone.

The first scene itself who hasnt been 30 seconds since the film started has hit me hard and made me tear up. Since then so many scenes had drenched me in tears.

Slice of life drama on dealing with departed loved ones.

I love how the film ended and the post credits sond and scene was super adorable. I could keep on Praising this movie.

This is is defintely a must watch for all ages.

If somone knew where i could find the song that played at the end would be much appreciated.

This is a movie that brings a lot of warmth to our hearts and suitable for all ages to watch. Both Zhu Yilong and Yang Enyou gave wonderful acting in this movie. Totally worth watching. There are lots of funny dialogues but at the same time very touching. It's about how two people (an adult and a child) got to know each other by accident but finally became a family by helping each other and being devoted. They have similar personalities in spite of their age differences, and brought a lot of laughters and tears to us. It's the best movie I've watched so far this year, totally recommend it.
