calsem's rating
I went in only expecting some mild humor, but I got a hilarious, dramatic, emotional, and thought-provoking movie. The English subtitles and humor translate over well to a western audience. The actor Teng Shen does a great job playing the father, pulling off a wide range of emotions with charisma.
Some cultural context:
* College entrance exams are a HUGE thing in China
* Jack Ma is a famous billionaire
* Education and Filial piety are also important in China. Strict parenting is more common in China than in the US.
(Don't form stereotypes based on the above, please. They are generalizations)

Negative:
Cliche and a pointless waste of time. If you've seen enough time travel stories then you've seen this one already. Dr. Strange's character development was not deep enough, making his transition seem corny. The fight scene was okay, could be better.
Positive: The ending and animation were pretty good. If you haven't seen a lot of time travel stories or if dr. Strange is your favorite character you might like this episode.

Not all the shorts in this episode are funny but some of them are hilarious!
