Ni hao, Li Huanying

A tear quencher, you can easily tell how much this film means to Jia Lin. However, apart from the ending, while the rest of the film is funny, it is very much in the mold of recent Chinese comedies, and it is greatly helped out by a very strong supporting cast. The last 10 or so minutes is not an easy accomplishment though, it is very much a career and lifetime defining moment for someone to pour this much personal emotions on film. Accomplishing this is perhaps more important than any amount of box office for Jia.

Me at the beginning of the movie: laughing like a idiot Me at the ending of the movie: crying my eyes out. Me 3 hours after the movie: still sobbing in the shower

If you could go back in time, where would you go? To this question, Jia Ling answers: back to before my mom was married! Through this movie, she travels back in time to make her mom's life "better." This movie is Jia Ling's tribute to her late mother, who passed away when Jia Ling was only 19. She integrates humor to tell an incredible story. The second half of the film is what really gets the tears flowing. The story is incredibly beautiful, and the emotions are extremely raw and real. I laughed from start to end, but found myself unable to hold back tears. A mother's love for her child and a child's realization... truly a must see. I highly recommend this film!

A movie full of most real feelings. Remember to watch sketch first foreign viewers if any.

The plot is very humorous, the love between mother and daughter is also reflected incisively and vividly.But there are some details that deserve a little bit more refinement. There's a little bit of emotional sublimation, but there's still a little bit of lack of feeling, you know, the smooth feeling of the movie.
