An Exercise In Nonsense
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
I'm not adopted, but this film somehow made me experience those feelings, while capturing the Asian culture spot on. I was sucked into this film, with its use of tempo shifts, emotions, scenery and characters, in a way that just works.
