      I finally saw a Hong Kong film that I could come up with.
      I finally saw a Hong Kong film that I could come up with. The advantages and disadvantages are obvious. Let me talk about the advantages: very life, especially the family line of 3 uncles. The middle middle layer tried hard to keep his wife to keep his dignity. Luther carefully tried to have a love, and the glasses were tired of the conflict between the mother-in-law and the mother-in-law. Their entanglement, boredom, pain, and arbitrariness seem so reasonable, because it happens to us. In the end everything was so calm, lost and lost, and the outstretched hand shrank back. This is still the original face of life. Of course, the shortcomings are also obvious: the climax of forcing is not good at all, and the love of ping-pong and the role of the coach are too weak. The idea of using a dragon boat to connect in series does not fit the plot, but it seems to be blunt.
