Love does not conquer all
Story: The story does not offer anything particularly fresh. It introduced a few clichés and troupes, such completing a ridiculous list of tasks together upon breaking up, which is the main selling point of the story. While the plot itself isn't novel, the story telling was surprisingly well done. The director managed to capture the essence of the main couple's relationship nicely, from how they met to how it ended, within the 2 hours air time. The pacing was well-balanced, with minimal filler scenes. That said, I do wish they had developed the second couple's storyline a little bit more, similar to the third couple.Acting: I've never seen any movies or films by Ou Hao and Zeng Meng Xue but I think they did a pretty decent job. The emotional scenes, in particular, felt raw and relatable. The supporting casts didn't leave much of an impression, mostly due to their limited screen time. However, Zhou You stood out as Wu Wang. He portrayed the rebellious and playful nature of Wu Wang exceptionally, and delivered during his emotional scenes.
Music: There wasn’t an original soundtrack produced for the film, but the use of popular heartbreak songs like 《在加納共和國離婚》by Firdhaus and 《我很快乐》by 刘惜君 really elevated the emotional depth of certain scenes.
Overall, despite the lackluster plot, I managed to take something away from this movie, which is love does NOT conquer all. A relationship is not just about the initial spark, it's about mutual understanding and commitment to one another, regardless of setbacks.
