Youths in the Breeze: My Novel Boy (2020)

Short but still captivating

This story within a story isn't a new concept, but their story is new to me and it was totally worth watching. They balanced reality and some mystery magic well, because as far as happy endings go, they can be happy in a sad way or happy in a happy way. This story offer both, which honestly had me wanting to cry, laugh and smile all at once, all while being punctuated by some slight action.
The two main leads literally just fell into each other's lives and in true drama fashion, caused drama. Their playful antics and general silliness made them a joy to watch on screen. I was thrilled to realised that they had begun to care for each other by midway through. The chemistry between them was undeniable, and the bromance that was ever present to the end was heart warming to be honest. I mean the sacrifice that was made to have everyone happy at the end was true genius, I didn't see it coming but was glad and sad it came.

A funny subject, when the two heroes fall into each other's lives and vice versa, briskly played, by Chinese standards, a nice bromance in the second half, the actors proved that they should have, if not for the moronic order of the infallible party, or rather its red autocratic "leader". A surprisingly effective conclusion. It only dropped the sound about three times... Definitely above average.


Vtipný námět, kdy vpadají oba hrdinové jeden do druhého jejich životů a naopak, svižně zahráno, na čínské poměry pěkná bromance ve druhé půli, herci dokázali, že by měli navíc, nebýt debilního nařízení neomylné strany, nebo spíše jejího rudého autokratického "vůdce". Překvapivě působívý závěr. Jen mi asi třikrát vynechával zvuk... Rozhodně nadprůměr.
