Our Youth (2018)

A Heartwarming Story of Youth, Friendship, Family, and Community

This is the Chinese remake of Reply 1988. I'm not sure why, but I could never really get into Reply 1988, whereas I was hooked on this version from the very beginning. Maybe it just resonated with me more.

A heartwarming and nostalgic film that beautifully captures the atmosphere of the period. It has youth, friendship, family bonds, and a strong sense of community. Nowadays, most families live much more independently, so watching this film reminded me of how close-knit and supportive neighborhoods used to be. The neighbors, while can sometimes be a little nosy, at the end of the day, they are always there for one another, sharing both the highs and lows of life and willing to lend a helping hand.

Overall, it's a bright, uplifting, and enjoyable drama with some touching, emotional moments. The only downside is that the ending feels a bit disappointing when it comes to the main couple.

The entire cast delivered excellent performances. Their acting felt natural and convincing.
