A visually stunning cinematography movie, with a multi-layered plot; identity, loyalty, friendship, and responsibility, but losing its potential as the story goes on.

The characters are superficially written. Many characters and events happen simultaneously. The side plots sometimes take too much time, detracting from the main character's screen time and the central theme. All these make it difficult for me to deeply attach to the story.

The acting is just adequately good - not impressive. Maybe the way they build characters is too bland, and disjoint, making the acting of the cast hard to stand out.

Extremely fun, climaxing action-packed scenes, the plot worked really well in balancing the humane and humorous details.

The ML character consistently built, from a good guy mostly interested in having “fun” to full of a sense of justice, and responsibility man.

This movie just hit the spot and met my needs, I just wanted something lightly, hilarious to brighten my mood at night, and it indeed happened.

This was a visual feast for my eyes. Every scene, costume, plot setting, and, yup, the acting was perfect.
I did not enjoy the plot much, but it is still worth watching.

Confusing premise and pacing, but as the main plot unfolds, the twist is so unexpected.

A groundbreaking natural disaster movie, inspired by a true story, painstakingly re-enacts the most terrible earthquake of the 20th century in Tangshan. Focus on post-disaster; the "aftershocks", the pain, the loss, the torment, and the obsession are deeply engraved in the minds of the survivors.

The storyline tells a heart-wrenching family reunion, the cruel choice of the mother in the most frustrating situation leading to the misunderstanding, and the separation of 32 years. With a bittersweet, happy ending, the thing that they truly deserved after all those years.

The acting of the cast was indeed phenomenal.
