Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation

Minh Ung The movie is about a deaf girl, Yang Yang, who work multiple jobs to support her sister, Xiao Peng, dream of competing in Deafolympic. One day she met a boy name Tian Kao. They fell in love with each other. But due to a great sense of responsibility to take care of her sister, Yang Yang keep turning Tian Kao down. This is a love story that communicate through sign language. Tian Kao and Yang Yang both are very simple people. They were able to sign to each other because they both live in a community full of deaf people. This romantic story about deaf people is very good and relatable for people in the deaf community. I think both leading actor and actress did a wonderful job signing.

cremea SPOILERS AHEAD!"Hear Me", or "Ting Shuo" (as it referred to in native language) is a semi-recent Taiwanese film that is part of the current wave of Taiwan cinema that's making a name for itself outside of the more traditional Asian movie making powerhouses…Welcome to the party Taiwan!…The more the better I says!Is this movie "gimmicky"?...YES!. In fact, it's totally dependent on its gimmick to make it all work. With regards to gimmicky movies, I often try to think about what it would be like if you removed the underlying gimmick from the equation in order to better judge it…i.e. would it still be a good movie if you did so?...You just can't do that here though, because there would be no movie without the gimmick.Story: This is a romantic drama that revolves around two deaf sisters who can only communicate through sign language (this is the gimmick). The two sisters do their best to make a living while realizing their goals in a world where the cards are heavily stacked against them. One of the sisters is an aspiring swimmer, and the younger sis tries to encourage and support her while trying to make ends meet for the both of them. Life is tough though, and they keep getting more crap piled on them no matter how hard they try to succeed.Enter our young hero…He works for his family's restaurant and delivers meals all over town. On his route is the athletic/swimming facility for the deaf, where he happens upon the younger of the two sisters. He's not deaf, but he does happen to know sign language, and he's instantly smitten with the young deaf sister upon meeting her. So, he pursues her, and there's your romantic angle of the storyline. The actress playing the young deaf sister is the tiniest and cutest thing ever, and the lead actor who portrays the guy interested in her is suitably "adorable" & likable. She's pretty cautious and somewhat standoffish, but he persists…and, perhaps love can one day bloom between the two if everything works out…they would make the cutest couple ever if so.The two actresses starring as the deaf sisters are really good in their roles…I (obviously) don't know the Taiwanese version of sign language, but, it sure does look like the 2 actresses do…as a result, there's a number of thoughtful and touching/emotional signed scenes between the two of them throughout the film that are very nicely done. The main male lead gets the job done quite well. Aside from them, the only other meaningful characters in this movie are the mother & father of the male lead, and, they are just flat out awesome in their respective roles.This movie also had a very well done end game goal/result that caught me off guard a bit…It's really, really, really, rare that a movie or TV show will make me say; "Hmmm…I wasn't expecting that to happen!"There's a lot to like with this movie…the story is pretty good and well thought out, all the characters are likable, and it's well shot/filmed throughout. Perhaps the most impressive aspect about this film is its musical scoring & sound effects…the "soundtrack" hits all the proper notes when & where needed throughout, and the subtle use of background "noise" when the deaf are communicating is nothing short of outstanding. Bottom Line: This Movie is pretty good… It's an uber cute dramatic love story (with a gimmick) that makes for a great "date night" watch. What's wrong/lacking?...not much, other than its too freakin' long…apparently, Taiwanese cinema also suffers from the same Asian cinematic flu epidemic that frequently strikes other country's films in the region…as such, some "fat" trimming would have definitely benefited this film. Nevertheless, it is quite well done overall as is….And, I just absolutely loved it!So, 8 out of 10 stars for me!...Solidly recommended!

vince4953529 This is a light-hearted romantic teen movie from Taiwan. I felt just like many recent Taiwanese movies, the dialogs could be a little awkward at times, even though the majority of the film was communicated in sign- language. The diminutive yet terminally cute leading actress was good at her role, serving as a reserved character. The male lead character was more expressive in nature, although I felt at times came out a bit obnoxious. The language aspect reflects fairly accurately among the current Taiwanese society today, where the parents speak in Taiwanese while the children replied in Mandarin. In a way it is sad to see a native language is replaced by an invading tongue, and I hope there is a trend coming to slow up this trend. Overall this is a harmless romance Taiwanese movie.

http://jonnyfendi.blogspot.com How do you express your love to someone dear? Thiz movie teaches us how to get through all the boundaries and speaks only from our heart. I went to see thiz film without any expectation. But surprisingly it becomes a spell-binding movie. The Director Fen-fen Cheng made a directorial debut through thiz Taiwanese Romantic Comedy. It's about a delivery boy Tian Kuo (Eddie Peng) who falls in love with hearing impaired girl named Yang Yang (Ivy Chen). Without any difficulty, both of them can communicate easily, although using sign language. The Cast members are not just good looking, but they deliver some dazzling performances as well. The story also revolves around Yang Yang's sister, Xiao Peng (Michelle Chen) who is pursuing her dream to become paralympic swimmer. Most of the times, the scenes are filled with mute dialogue and silentness. I am amazed every time I watch thiz unique couple talk to each other with their sign language, how their hand movements and face expressions interact more effective than our daily language. Meanwhile, the comical interaction between Tian Kuo and his parents is one of hilarious parts in thiz movie. Thiz is definitely not a shallow love drama, but it's also an inspiring story about dreams and aspirations. There are some melancholic and heart-touching scenes, particularly in one of the scenes when Yang Yang and her sister remind each other among their desperation, how hope should always be there to light up their life. The movie confidently teaches us, how we should appreciate every single hard work that is done by someone, where every penny has its worth and value. A beautiful drama speaks loud and clear beyond words. The sound of love is perfectly captured. I hear you clearly ^_^ Visit My Blog on JONNY'S MOVEE : http://jonnyfendi.blogspot.com
