It's not about men, it's about money

If a lot of women are going to pick this movie out of a bunch of big-budget, gimmicky intros, it's because it's not a story about them or about us and them, it's a story about us . We, the women, the sisters we have grown up with since childhood, from little girls to being wives and mothers, we care for each other and depend on each other, but we are also jealous of each other, compete with each other, and even speak ill of each other, men always do not understand. But this is really the way of women, and we admired the perfect interpretation of the friendship between men in the movies, but now we all know that it is just a lie. Class, status, money, who can really overcome these differences? In contrast, stories like "Old Friends Are Rich", although full of women's vanity and worldly all kinds, are far more real and cordial than those utopian men's friendships, and most importantly, it Very righteous.

Friendship also needs to accept the test of money. Four former friends, three of them have both fame and fortune, one is poor, and the poor one is jealous and has to shake his head to protect his vanity. A chicken nest is arguing with people all over the place, one is too wise, and in married life, he can't learn to turn a blind eye, and the last one is rich and idle, and his happiness is to the point of indignation of human beings and gods, plus Shang Lao likes to hit the nail on the head, so he listens to all kinds of slander every day and lives under pressure that no one understands.

No money is complete, but money is not the solution to all problems. A woman's midlife crisis is no easier than a man's. At this time, maybe we need the company of our girlfriends even more. Because no matter how obsessed you were when you were young, when your youth is gone, you will know that the one who understands women best will always be women.

Frankly speaking, this is not a film for men. From the director to the actors, all women are women, and all men are decorations. Although there are one or two flashes of inspiration, which add some comic effects, they are all insignificant. Therefore, it is not an exaggeration to define such a film classified as a light comedy/romance as a thoroughly feminist film, because it excludes men from both form and content, and poses as a woman It's more thorough than those movies that challenge men as enemies. It's no wonder that many men say that the movie is not good-looking, but the women are all very good. Because it did not put on a gesture to please men.

    I like that Jennifer always plays the kind of confused and some big characters. The characters in this are not very fond of giving high marks because of the actors themselves. The different lives of the four women have changed after some twists and turns, but the ending is the same A good life is full of sunshine
