Xia Luo te fan nao

Teng Shen is an undignified man who lives an unhappy life with his wife. He is given another shot at his life; after he blacks out, getting drunk at his old crush's wedding. He wakes up in his old classroom back in his high-school days. Yes he goes back in time! Not a sci-fi by any means, but a good romantic comedy. The film is a fun ride of quick humour and good music. The script is well written and the characters well enacted. I was into the film from first to last, not a second of boredom! A feel-good movie worth your time. It does offer a powerful hidden-morale but that's for you to find out.

Enjoy!!

Xia Luo is married to Madong Mei, but is still in love with his high school crush, Qiuya. On Qiuya's wedding he decides to get drunk and sing to Qiuya a love song. Madong Mei is not very happy with his behavior and attacks him. Xia Luo runs away and hides in the toilet.

But when he leaves it, he is back to his high school days... And now he has a second chance. What will he change? Will he 'conquer' Qiuya's heart?

The story is not to be taken too seriously (even if we actually get a couple of serious moments), and we can see the ending coming from almost the very beginning. But the plot is not really what matters in a time-travelling comedy. A story like this is perfect to be acted and directed with silliness in its heart. That the story is simple and self-centered around Xia Luo could be forgiven if it was funny and with a frantic pace. However the laughs come and go, and the pace is too uneven. That without forgetting that it has a couple of worrisome moments, starting with Xia Luo's penchant to sexually harass Qiuya after he has traveled back in time (even if he believes it is a dream).

"Goodbye Mr.Loser" is a not very original comedy, worth a couple of chuckles, but that is also way overacted and with problems of pace. A middling effort.

1. This is simply the most embarrassing experience of watching movies in my life.

The film is really hot, and I have seen a 100% attendance. All the audience laughed, and the two girls who accompanied me laughed happily. However, I grinned about ten times in a hundred minutes (thanks to Yuan Hua and Yimei Mei for the laugh points). At other times, I have been saying "too embarrassing" "how terrible" and "uncomfortable" It was a comedy that made me sweat and sweat.

At that time, I had realized the inner arrogance of this comedy's creator: their satire is so spicy, absurd and so malicious, and deliberately acting silly can not be ignored.

2. But why does such a movie have such a chicken soup ending?

Especially when I came back to review the reviews, I saw eyes full of "warmth", "cherishment", "movement" and "middle-age crisis" ... are we watching a movie? (The last time I saw such a mindless public opinion was on the page of "Doraemon: Walk with me", and I "cried" all over my eyes, I thought I was blind.)

If I were a screenwriter, it would be malicious in the end: when Charlotte in Nan Ke's dream died of AIDS, let him die. Eleven of the ten viewers could guess that Charlotte was going back, and they were all happy. It 's not as good as this: As soon as the lens turned, a burst of white light, the face immersed in water. Then Ma Dongmei, leading the classmates, smashed the door of the wedding room toilet and found-Charlotte! My head is immersed in the water and suffocates myself!

How do people eat pizza in the future? To tell the truth, it is the peak of recent comedy movies, not relying on vulgar passages, natural and endless jokes, the main actors in place. At the same time, the music is well matched, especially the second generation of officials. It really sets off the harbors in the same period as garbage. However, some of the plot content is too much out of the loop, such as mother Xia, such as beautiful women, rich life must be unhappy.

I was expecting a simple comedy but was touched by the love story. It is about a married man who did not know what he wanted. The leading character, Xia Luo, went to the wedding party of his high school crush, when he drank too much and started to re-iterate his "love" for her. His current wife, who was in the same high school class, came to the party and of course chaos followed, until he passed out from the alcohol. When he opened his eyes, he found himself in his high school class.

The story developed from there, when Xia Luo was doing everything to get his crush to like him. At the same time, the wife had loved him since forever. It could have been a silly love triangle story, but the wife line had a lot of touching moments. So who did Xia Luo choose?

The movie has quite some funny moments, nothing legendarily funny but good enough. Surprisingly it also made me cry. Overall a light comedy with a moving love story.
