This was a really nice grown-up movie. I liked the ending; it was a good resolution and funny like the rest of the film. I don't catch many Chinese films and I enjoyed the chance to watch this one. The rhythm was very different, not slow, but almost deliberate. I loved how petulant and stubborn but also gentle and loving the husband and wife were. It rang true.

I thought this was a genuine, good movie. The only thing I was confused about was Hulu's description. I don't really understand this last sentence:
"Day after day until Zhu Wei found himself contracted an incurable disease."
Unless there is some sequel that hulu is spoiling the ending of, I never noticed anything of this sort happening in the film.
Anyway, it's a serious film, not for those who want a happy-go-lucky drama. I think it was definitely well done and I'm glad I watched it!

Sorry to burst ur bubble but they're speaking Chinese. Don't feel bad. They fooled me to but according to an Asian exfriend who got really offended by me calling them Korean they are Chinese. Tricky bastards!

Are you absolutely serious? I can't discern if it's honest naivety, ignorance, or just bigotry but yeah, other countries besides the USA make movies too. I hope you can wrap your mind around that fact. Foreign actors, foreign directors, etc. etc. There are many film festivals which are international. You live in a world that is not populated by only one country, only America. And it just be so that movies like "Last Tango in Paris", "2046", "La Femme Nikita", etc. which are all award-winning foreign films are better than, say, Twlight's New Moon. Try to be more open-minded about globalization and trying new things. No one else in the world community is spoiled to the point of complaining about reading. If it's so difficult, why not learn the language? Or learn to read faster? Or finally reconcile the fact that people like you will never be able to appreciate a culture that is not their own.

If you cant read fast enough to keep up with the subtitles, THERE is a pause button.
Also subs are much better than phony dubs. I prefer then subs. I have watched a lot
of Kdramas and LOVE to actually hear the language and the expressions. I wish I did speak Korean. Its a beautiful language and the people are beautiful.
