Review:
At first I watched this movie because of the actor Luhan, he is a well know idol in the k-pop industry, however due to some complications he split with his band and continues as an solo artist in China. Before watching the movie, I thought I wouldn't concentrate on the story, but as the movie played it got really intriguing. It was like a typical Chinese family where women from "Shen Mengjun's" generation would usually take bias towards the men the family. From the point where she transforms to her younger self, is where it started to get a lot more interesting. As I am into the magical and fantasy genre, the movie literally got my eyes stuck to the movie screen. With a comedy aspect included it was a great movie to watch. BUT I have to say, towards the end it did get a little bit sad, though it was kind of predictable to what was going to happen when "Xiang Qian Jin" was riding his bike through a crowded and busy street, it made me tear up. To me with I see either parents and grandparents doing as much as they can to help their child or grandchild, really touches my heart. Overall I would recommend anyone who hasn't watch this to watch it. Incorporating genres of comedy, family, little bit of romance fantasy, it makes it an excellent movie to watch. PLUS there are good looking guys, especially for girls to ogle at, it can't get any better.
