Man in love

My emotion fluctuate a lot when watching this, happy to sad. Didn't watch good romance from tw a while and this definitely a good one. I always say Taiwan style is very unique and such atmosphere just only Taiwan can make it. Even a romance drama can feel the texture in it. Really waiting a movie from Taiwan can go Oscar.

If not for the acting, this movie would be much lower in the totem pole. What a fantastic cast of actors from top to bottom. The overall mood and setting is also brilliant. However, the story just didn't hit my tear nodes. A relationship that never really made sense since the very beginning coupled with some very questionable decision making ends up with an even more confusing ending that simply saddles the female lead with a bunch of responsibilities. Outside of a few dialogues, their relationship is also not very well illustrated. The dialogue is full of shades of Korean soap drama that's tried and tested, and this is simply one of the million.

Maybe the plot isn't the most original thing, however it had the perfect formula to make me cry my eyeballs out. Visually was very simple but pleasant and was so easy to like the male character, that even knowing what was coming I couldn't stop myself from crying a little bit too much.

I've never expected to be cried a lot yet this movie made me.

Yin Chen-Hao's well-paced remake film got predictable beats but still offered alluring journey of happiness and sorrow. Roy Chiu again proved his versatility here. Together with Hsu, they delivered heartfelt romance on-screen that anyone could shed a tear to.
