My Missing Valentine

"But no, A Tai is too diffident to do that, instead he must conjure up a tortuous way to let her know his feelings, including the crucial Valentine's Day, the world stops stock-still except for him (, and later, another slowpoke turns out to be Hsiao-Chi's father (seasoned musician Ayugo Huang, civilly lends a philosophical tone to his character's reprehensible deeds), who has deserted his family years ago. But in this day and age, A Tai's innocent manhandling of a puppet-like Hsiao-Chi could easily evoke discomfort for those who are too powerless to refuse a man's inappropriate advances, it only adds creepiness to A Tai's obsession, luckily he is a good guy, but his dicey behavior cannot be OKed for the sake of Chen's romantic notion. If you like a woman, just let her know, please, and any body contact without both parties' consensus is categorically unacceptable."

read my full review on my blog: Cinema Omnivore, thanks.

Recently I been watching a lot of Taiwanese movies and throughly enjoy each and every one of it.. the standard of these movies had improved tremendously..

Coming back to this review I was actually quite entertained for two hours without a doubt that this is a well acted and written. It mays contain not only romance but some sci-fi element.. I can see the bad comments about this movie regarding a stalker that turn the movie into a rom com

To be honest when I watched the frozen time scene.. the first thing that come in mind why don't he robbed the bank or the frozen ppl instead he just went to look for his crush... doesn't it sound stupid on a second thought I was love that conquers all things not all the money in the world

It make me realise this.. the missing Valentine is a funny romance comedy that really shows the local Taiwan culture and the ending song absolutely kills it

Finally a shout out to Taiwan filmmaker to keep one making great movies.

Some bug about the time explanation but that's won't bother me as the film go smoothly to the end. I like how it's was shoot when it's come to singing and phone call. A fun, relax and enjoy to watch with your friends and family.

The storyline is rich and entertaining and touching. It's a love story with some mysterious sci fic parts involved. With all different themes put in a movie it's surprising natural and good. The touching part exist as well. Like a topnotch fusion dish. Quite special Taiwan movie.

Sweet, touching, meaningful film done in a imaginative way. however the usual eccentric overacting that taiwan/japan/korea audiences love might not be for everyone.
