Movie Review: 藍色大門 Blue Gate Crossing

Hahaaa second post of today. And in case you were wondering, no I still haven't finished my English commentary. Joy.

This is the second time I've watched this movie. I love it so much :D

The plot:

Meng Kerou is an average, plain highschool student, and is best friends with Lin Yuezhen, who has a crush on Zhang Shihao. Yuezhen is too shy, so asks Kerou to tell Shihao she has a crush on him. Yuezhen does so hesitantly, and so it begins. Shihao doesn't believe Kerou, thinking that 'Yuezhen' is a made up excuse for her to talk to him. He warms up to her not too long after, but she remains indifferent. A number of things happen and suddenly Shihao is falling for Kerou, and Kerou's friendship with Yuezhen is no longer what it used to be.... Get ready for the twist in the plot!!

The verdict:

Just to let y'all know, THIS is THE movie that made me fall for Chen Bolin, who plays Shihao, and who is also one of my celeb crushes in case you didn't read my post on that matter ^^.

So that's one of the reasons I love this movie. This was when Bolin was new to the world of showbiz, and just 19. He acts so well in this movie. Also, the female lead, Kerou is played by my favorite actress, Gui Lunmei.

They both look so young haha.

One other thing that I love about this movie is the overall feeling it evokes: that awkard impulsiveness of a first love.

The ending isn't all happy happy joy joy, but you still leave satisfied. :) Now that's the power of a good movie.

The rating:

4.5/5
