The movie wasn't that memorable, though it was entertaining. The ending was happy but didn't really strinke a chord with me - maybe cause I like realistic endings. The whole movie had a realisti vibe so the ending kind of threw me off, even though I do like happy endings myself.
Would I rewatch it? Not particularly, though it was fun. I don't really re watch anything.
The Casting was great, the music was... meh, it was music. But the story... it was cool. if you're looking for a prince is saved my beauty, this is for you hahah.

There were so many aspects that made this adorable, it could have been a very good movie without the copy cat bits. However, because it was copied and I have recently seen The Holiday for the first time, I could tell how many things were rushed in order to stick to the original concept.
I personally don't mind remakes, spin offs or movies based upon another older movie, but I can't stand it when they make it out to be super original and it ends up rushed. If you want to watch a really good movie, try The Holiday; it's got feelings that are more raw and beautiful.
I wouldn't stop anyone from watching this movie, but I hope that other people will realize it's just a copied product trying to do it better.

Two very different women who have been unlucky in love swap very different homes for a week, will they find happiness in each others lives? It is basically a remake of the Hollywood movie 'The Holiday' (starring Cameron Diaz & Kate Winslet) with some slight plot changes (and they're in China instead of America & England). I would say it's not quite as good as 'The Holiday', it actually gets a bit depressing three-quarters of the way through but there is a happy ending. So if you like your rom-coms with a dash of the serious then this may be for you. Was this review helpful to you?
Cheesier than my grandma's lasagna
The type of movie I would watch after a breakup (First I'd need to get a boyfriend lmao) The storyline was so freaking cheesy, and the insta love was insane in this, but the ending still makes you really happy for all the characters. We all secretly love the mushy-gushiness anyway. To be honest, I don't see myself ever watching this again, but it was a nice break from more serious dramas and I enjoyed watching the ridiculousness unfold in front of me. Watch if you've got a couple hours to kill I guess.Was this review helpful to you?
Chinese version of The Holiday
I loved Ying Zhen in Love Me if You Dare, and I loved him here as well. He's got that nice guy next door quality about him. For me, he was the high point of this movie. Well, and the ending was very fairy tale sweet as well.As for the rest, one of the female leads spent all her time yelling, the other one spent all of her time being self-absorbed. The "poor" FL seemed very immature and looked like she was about 12. She was loud and it was dubbed by the same woman that seems to do all the Chinese dubbing (baby voice, high pitched, irritating). The "rich" FL thought that every guy should fall all over her, and I just couldn't like her.
Plus, everyone seemed like they were overacting in this. It was cringy.
