stunning, entertaining, mysterious!

It was a lot of fun, watching this movie!I can recommand it!Visuals are crazy! Liked it very much, also the music, the acting and the general story.What was not so good?A little bit illogical and seemed a bit flat in the end, but that's okay!General recommandation!

an easy-to-watch movie with plenty of astonishing visual effects

I like the overall setting of the story very much, which mixes the imaginary world of the book and the real world of the writer pretty well. In several flashes of moments, the scene switches between these two worlds, and I could not even tell which one is real, which one is imaginary. The cinematography of the city of Chongqing also helped a lot on developing this blurriness of the two worlds.What I felt a bit unsatisfied is the lack of surprises in the development of the plot and the characters: the only twist occurs on the heroin, a non-essential character of the film. The two heros are just consistent and flat from the beginning to the end. In this regard, it has wasted the good setting of the story.Overall, it is an easy-to-watch movie with plenty of astonishing visual effects.
