1) The reason I watched this: I don't usually watch Chinese rom-coms but this one slipped away when I was watching too many romantic comedies. 2) Storyline/Plot: The general story isn't something special or new but the way everything was mixed together made the film's story interesting somehow. Positive points: *The film's introduction was a good intro for what will happen next. *There were two well-written twits that you don't usually find in romantic comedies stories: that was a nice change. *Leads mixture was really cool even though it wasn't that intense. *Finally and most importantly, there were several hilarious moments to make the film lighter. Negative points: *Although there were a respectable amount of negative points but I will only mention that the revenge plot wasn't that great, it would have been much better if it was written otherwise. Story: 7.5/10 3) Acting/Cast: *Zhang Ziyi: It was a surprise to see her in a rom-com film since I only saw her in Wuxia productions before. I was convinced by her acting but I can't say the same about her character. *Other actors were good too, they knew how to make it really enjoyablespecially Fan Bing Bing she grasped the evil role perfectly but So Ji Sub was a disappointement here (mainly because I rarely like Korean actors in Chinese or Taiwanese productions). *The chemistry was believable but not that enjoyable. Cast: 7/10 Acting: 7.5/10 4) The ending: Although it could have been much better but script writers chose to make it expected. It wasn't bad overall. The ending: 7/10. 5) My impression (How did affect me): *Although it wasn't a special film, it was entertaining and I had fun while watching it. *Considering the fact that I don't watch Chinese romantic comedies, this was pretty good. My impression 7/10. 6) Overall: *If you like romantic comedies then you would like this. *Ifyou like revenge plots then don't expect much from this. Overall: 7/10.
