From the point of view of the movie, it is not too bad. After all, the tricks used by Hollywood are basically there, and it is also a hymn of a personal hero. However, this matter cannot be taken into consideration. If you think about it carefully, you will find that this is completely a model drama of American imperialism in which the new America (the female protagonist) overwhelmingly triumphs over the old/traditional China (the male protagonist's mother). Stereotypes can be seen everywhere (old China was concerned about family and centralization, the heroine, as the representative of New York, has become silly and cute, the heroine is dressed in Monroe clothes instead of traditional Chinese red, which may be more beautiful and charming) and simple. Attribution (the male protagonist's mother emphasizes that the female protagonist is unwilling to choose a female protagonist because she likes to pursue personal freedom) It goes without saying. What disgusts me the most is actually the turning point of the heroine at the end (the heroine told the hero's mother that if I hadn't generously let your son go, you wouldn't have the happiness you want) - this is not exactly the same as NYTimes more than a week ago In the series about China that came out, is the phrase "You are developing so prosperously now because we helped you before (to the effect)" is almost the same? Please, do you really take your own values as the axioms of nature without competing with you? U.S. Emperor, are you sure that you helped China not to support a younger brother to check and balance the Soviet Union? Are you sure you're not helping China for the longer term but just being helpful (I laughed when I wrote those few words...)? Many of the self-defeating about the United States in the film seems to be self-defeating, but in fact it is the opposite. Where does superiority come from? I'm going to cry a little more with you (for example, the freedom of a person/citizen of a country is often based on the sacrifice of the freedom of many other people/creatures/nature). Are all-Asian actors starring in films that despise you Asians and earn your movie ticket money? I'm sorry, I choose Ang Lee as the Asian filmmaker in your country. After all, they have thought, depth and insight (see Lust and Caution for playing mahjong scenes). So, two stars at most, really can't be more.
