The movie's only flaw is also a virtue: It's jammed with characters, stories, warmth and laughs.
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
In a world mixed with reality and fantasy, where one would question systems and laws, this movie takes place. And what a better way to demonize the communist one-child policy than weaving it in a gloomy story where 7 female siblings have to hide their existence forever. I have to say that the story of this movie is unique, for it invokes your sympathy with the 7 identical siblings. The fact that you must hide all your life with no real identity, and are only allowed to go out once a week on the day you're named after, is pretty painful and depressing. Noomi Rapace's performance was incredible. It reminds me of the talents of Uma Therman in 'Kill Bill' and Sigourney Weaver in her epic days. The movie raises an indirect question. Is it true that love can conquer everything? We see that the CAB officer gets attached to one of the siblings, that's Saturday. Although we didn't see enough of what urges him to risk his life in order to save her, he defies everything for her. Perhaps it proves that love is blind. It sure is in this case. I recommend this movie for you. Enjoy!
Great science fiction movie... very original liked it
I like the way she acts 7 sisters. It's mind blowing. The story is fun to watch too . I m from china ,I was the first generation of one Child policy . I didn't have any siblings to grew up with so I know what it feels like. And thx god Chinese government stopped the policy.
I wish I loved this like I thought I would...are we supposed to believe that coincidentally the sister named Sunday happened to be the christian type one and Saturday just ended up the wild partying one? Or that this woman is obsessed with finding these girls and has multiple goons rabidly determined to murder them? Why exactly is it so important that these specific girls die so much more than others? Why do they not have any emergency protocol to deal with their sister dying? Why were they not spending the 6 days each a week they had in that apartment preparing for something like that? Why does the child version of her not have an accent but the adults do? What was the sex scene supposed to add? Why does each girl have like one blatantly obvious personality trait? Why does one identical twin need glasses? And so on
