Lately I've been really into asian rom com movies (i'm european for the record) so I've been googling all sorts of movies in japanese, filipino, taiwaneese, thai and when I found this movie I thought it sounded sooooooooooo cliche. To be honest it reminded me a little of A crazy little thing called love. But i watched the trailer and decided to give it a go anyway. And Oh. My. Freaking. God. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST MOVIES. EVER!!!
Like normally these kind of movies are very cheesy and too predictable and frankly the acting usually aint that good either. But man this movie really blew my mind! Not to mention how hot Darren Wang is but his acting skills were BOSS! And his cute little smirks and face expressions literally took my breath away. The way Hsu tai-yu looks at Lin is probably how every girl dreams to be looked at by a boy even I found myself smiling whenever he looked at her with those dazzling eyes.
And yes this might seem like a cliche story which you have seen in other dramas but it really isn't and this one definetely takes home the first price. I'm not even joking!!!
Vivian Sung did quite a good job as well with her acting, unlike from other movies her awkwardness isn't too much and she isn't overly clingy with her emotions and shit or like over dramatic like most girls are when they have crushes!
I cried and laughed and cried and laughed through the whole movie it fckn touched my soul! I've always liked those kind of movies where the main character is some sort of bad boy but deep inside he's the sweetest guy ever. And it really got to my feels when he did all those cute little things for Lin in the movie. It made me want to have a guy friend like that too!! It didn't feel like a cliche love story, it went in its own pace and it felt like a real life love story. It didn't go too fast and it didn't feel fake at all. Their feelings towards each other felt very relateable so overall it was a FANTASTIC love story!
So if you like romantic/comedy/friendship stories then this is something you MUST watch! I'm gonna rewatch it 9848493 times cuz it's THAT awesome.
PS- this is my first review so don't judge XD thanks :*
