Reset (Chinese Movie)

 I was not able to post about this Chinese movie, Reset (2022) starring, Zhao Jinmai and Bai JingTing. It tells the story of a college student trapped in a time loop where she keeps waking up inside a bus as time repeatedly resets. I will not go into details so I will not spoil the movie. 


The storyline is very good, and I did not find the movie boring from the start. Kudos to the director, scriptwriter, and everyone involved in making this movie. This deserves to be known worldwide. If you have not seen it yet, I highly recommend it, especially if you like the suspense, mystery, and thriller genre.

The Secret 消失爱人 (Xiao Shi Ai Ren) 2016 Movie Review

   Today, I saw 'The Secret', movie. This should not be confused with Jay Chou's, 'Secret', 2007 movie. The genre of this movie is a mixture of suspense/thriller, romance-drama movie. I decided to watch this movie mainly because of JJ Lin. He played the cousin of the protagonist in the movie. Yes, I'm fangirling now! I tell you people, I will make a review of JJ Lin's album next time, when my order arrives.

Anyway, back to the movie. (spoiler alert). The opening scene show a man which is played by Leon Lai, watching a tv program, about a supernatural expert talking about ghost/spirit. As the movie progresses we know that the wife of Leon Lai (Kai Feng) who is played by Wang Luodan (Qiu Jie) died due to a mountain climbing accident in the icy Himalayas. Kai Feng wakes up one day, he saw that his wife resurfaced. He can see her again. JJ Lin who played Leon Lai's cousin also can see her, and also Mumu, their son. The wife of JJ Lin was played by Sandrine Pinna. There is a twist in the movie, and I will not further spoil it for you. The movie is quite sentimental, and while watching it. I said to myself if only this is true. I also want to see my departed loved ones. (I miss my grandma, and aunt). But of course, this is only a movie. I also cried in some parts of the movie, near the ending scene, the graduation of Kai Feng and Qiu Jie's son, Mumu.

The movie also offers good songs. There's a song sung by Leon Lai, and of course by JJ Lin both are beautiful. I am familiar with Leon Lai, because my favorite female Chinese singer Vivian Chow had a duet with him wayback. They had this song in Cantonese, I just remember the title in English. 'There's True Love Tomorrow'. JJ Lin's song was played in the latter part of the movie. 只要有你的地方 (晚安版) By Your Side (Bedtime). The movie is not that heavy, it is in fact a light-hearted one, and it shows us that we must value and treasure the time we have with our loved ones.
