The most creative fantasy

The benchmark for Chinese fantasy films. It integrates a lot of elements, but it still handles it very well. The two main lines represent love and hate. Every move is the attachment to obsession. There is no right or wrong, only letting go or not.

Fantasy Love Matchmaker

The god who unites people in love matching. The fantasy CGI is really cool with great story line. It is a touching story as my love to you will never change in a million year with the amazing theme song Red Scarf by WeiBird. Favour the lift scene with joyful music and dance.

Till We Meet Again

Yue Lao is by absolutely no means perfect, nor can it even be considered well filmed, well scripted or even well acted, but I am absolutely in love with it. There are definitely some awkward moments earlier in the film, but as the film goes on you realize its tremendous world building. It's so rare to see a Chinese fantasy film's world created in such a manner, and that is kudos to Nine Knives. Combined with what Taiwanese film makers are best at, love stories, the film is an instant classic. The film also has taken so much from other genres, from traditional horrors, Wuxia, etc, it's just such a rare and enjoyable experience.

Giddens Ko's signature romance is back in style

As long as you can ignore early slapstick moments and some illogical plot holes, you'll be entertained by Giddens Ko's signature romantic drama with unique touch of fantasy, horror and thriller. Hands down to Kai, Gingle, Vivian who tied all the emotional strings handily.

Above expectation

The movie was advertised as fantasy romantic and I was getting confused after watching the trailer about what expecting. However the thematic afterlife and good review convinced me to watch it.

At the end I was bluffed, this movie has it all.

Great romance (we got some tears off)
Has a fantasy, spirits part
Plot is wonderfully written, you feel sometimes a bit lost, which is what a plot should be. Make you impossible to guess the end. But you will get it all at the end.

Actors play well
On top of that, there is high level chinese philosophy even Buddhist/Indu behind the story about reincarnation, afterlife, life, karma, power of the heart and love, animals-human connection and power of metaphysics energies.

This movie is unique, a must watch.
