      This is a story about having an extramarital affair with shit luck

      I don't understand what spirit the film is promoting, where is the positive direction?

      The prudish police first secretly greeted the hostess in the restaurant, and then, under the guise of making a promise, gave half of the joint property of the husband and wife to the hostess who intends to become a mistress, and the green tea bitch's attitude towards accepting gifts is from beginning to end. He was so unceremonious with peace of mind that as soon as he got the money, he immediately...

      It Could Happen to You

      This is my first time writing a film review, a new goal for myself in 2014. When I first saw this movie, I was attracted by the Chinese title "Story of the City". There is no doubt that it must be a very romantic movie. In fact, I also watched it purely for Nicholas.
        What impresses me most in the film is that the "bad guy" played by Nicholas always repeats this sentence: "Promise is a promise." I don't know what kind of "good guy" can be willing to win the lottery Half a million dollars...

      Love of Life

      This movie is full of love! It is kind, sunny and romantic love! So beautiful, as beautiful as the heroine's smile!
              Many directors like to criticize reality and do some weird things to reflect the indifference between people and to reflect the total bad in reality. But what's the use of this? You are nothing but a idiot! You let the audience sigh and deceive the sympathy! You lied to the audience to agree, making the indifference between people more logical! Expounding negative...

      I don't like this movie, it's not for modern people

      Charlie is definitely not a good man. You can say Charlie is kind and generous, or Molly is vain and selfish, but an unhappy marriage is never the wife's fault alone. Charlie's generosity has no bottom line. He will distribute the lottery prizes of the husband and wife to this person and that person for a while, but all without Jasmine's knowledge. He never consulted with his wife, always saying "I'M SORRY" after the incident. He may be tolerant of others, but when facing his wife alone, his...

      Love, life, has nothing to do with money.

      A movie that looks very fairy tale, although it is unsurprisingly arranged with a perfect ending - the good guys get their rewards and the bad guys get what they deserve. But I have to say that such a good story can still provide a lot of positive energy to us living in such a realistic society.
            
            Even if I become rich, I will not change. Yes, Charlie's stubborn principle actually fully reflects what I once believed. It's such a simple life, how beautiful, and indisputable...

      This kind of love story is indeed a bit too idealistic and romantic. Kady and the beautiful protagonist are also high-profile characters, but I still like this kind of romantic comedy. One of Katie's films is missing one. ....

    Movie quotes

    • Angel Dupree: [Narrating] Tonight, I had the opportunity to study grace and generosity under the direst of circumstances. Even in "their darkest hour", Officer Charlie Lang and the good-hearted Ms. Yvonne Biasi shared a bowl of soup with me. When I left, this good Samaritan gave me money from his own pocket, wishing it could be more.

    • Angel Dupree: [Narrating] It took Charlie and Yvonne three days to open up all their mail, and when they were done New York had given them a six hundred thousand dollar tip, Charlie happily returned to the force. Yvonne got her coffee shop back. Eddie could only get work driving a cab. And Muriel, she married Jack Gross... who cleaned out the checking account and fled the country. Muriel lives in the Bronx with her mother and works at a nail salon. Charlie, Muriel and Yvonne all lived in a city where people prayed for miracles every day, and sometimes they happen.

    • Muriel Lang: I mean, if he was on the take, at least I would say, "Okay. He has initiative."
