A funny Wong Ka Wai
6 February 2019 | by madbird-61243 – See all my reviews

Its setting and shooting style is like Wong Ka Wai. At first I think it is another boring film like that produced by Wong.

To my surprise, it is not. I love the animation added in the movie. The atmosphere for most part is blue and dull, with the death of a father and a fight for his insurance compensation. The animation makes the whole story lighter and happier. And I like its happy ending. It is like a funny version of Wong Ka Wai's movie.

The acting of the female lead is superb and impressive. No doubt she won a Best actress. The other two male leads are equally good.

The plot twist to reveal the story of the male lover is really surprising. His appearance is not really like a good guy. But he is.

A story with a very special theme. Good cinematography. Lively animation. Superb actors. A story very worth immediate watching.
