Look Up and See Joy (2023)

This is actually nice

So I had read some bad reviews so I had low expectations… but this was actually cute and nice
Yes, sure, this is nothing extraordinary or epic. But this still makes one pass a good time : we have four good stories about love within the family.
It’s not something overly dramatic though : you still get good laughters, especially in the second story, with the father getting his head stuck in a bar, who desperately refuses to take off his mask and take the risk of being photographed (jeez, this had me dead 🤣🤣🤣, especially the way people who gather around him to try to get his head out).
Nevertheless, the stories are both touching and happy. It will help give you a breath of fresh air, exactly what you need when you don’t want anything serious for a moment.
The actors are great, even the youngest children : some may be disappointed that Dylan Wang is there for only a quarter of the story but honestly ? This is to be expected, the movie doesn’t lie about the fact that this is divided in four parts.

This is tough

I am a big Wang Hedi fan so ok, if you are watching this just for him just go in with expectation will only have about 20 minutes screentime and bit of a cheesy storyline with no romance angle.

This does not change my opinion of Wang Hedi? No

Look these short films obviously small project that might just take 1/2 days of filming, bit of a smaller project during downtime whilst waiting for bigger project/drama to commence.

I fast forwarded the rest of the film after the panda bear got caught in the rails. Story kinda got flat. If you are a Wang Hedi fan just watch his story, that's it. His story is about him designing a platform for his grandfather to reminisce about his grandmother when they first met. That's it really!
