Education is always a hot topic to talk about in China, and Successor is produced to satirize those parents who crazily want their children to be elite. The purpose of the film wasn't bad, but the plot merely seems to be a mix of good films such as The Truman Show and Hindi Medium. What's more, the act and the scene aren't outstanding. There indeed occurs some funny plot, but that's not special at all. Another drawback is the bad ending. The director doesn't explore the deep emotion of Ma Jiye when he knows the truth that he was cheated by his parents for 18 years, and thus makes it hard for the audience to get what the director want to express. In conclusion, Successor is a quite normal movie but it succeed in China's ticket house thanks to the lack of good film in Chinese market.

Heard this movie amazed many people in China, and thus decided to watch it. The plot is about a rich couples in China, and as the father was raised in poverty, he decided not to let their child know that they are rich (and their first child was not raisen properly). With the help of many staff and teachers, the first period of teaching is deemed to be success. There are also a lot of laughter within. However, when the child grows up and prepared for the examination, he gradually finds that everything is controlled around his life (this one is a bit similar to Truman Show), he wants to find out what is happening around him. Finally he found out what is happening around him and he decided to live in his own way (where this ending is expected). However, the relationship between his so called grandma (actually she is a well known teacher) is good and I even cried in her fake funeral when seeing the reaction of the boy. The story is with a happy ending as he finally enroll into a sports U (although he is qualified for the best U in China) where everyone is happy at last...

Yes, there are only a few good films about Happy Fried Dough Twists. I thought Happy Fried Dough Twists was going to spoil things, but it turned out to be the best comedy in the first half of the year (last year at the annual meeting). It was not deliberately sensational. The first half of the comedy version of Truman's World was a pure comedy. The plot was very funny, but all the funny points were based on the pain of the second son. There was a homophonic stem that was particularly funny, and probably explained the background. The second half felt a bit fragmented, like a thriller, a horror film about East Asian families, the grandma's body trick. The ending was moral kidnapping, and the eggs were very ironic. I even want to have another one to replace my second son's real suffocation. There are funny points and connotations. Recently, a few pure comedies can give nine points, and one point is for such sensitive subjects.

I went to a Sunday morning screening and was the only gringo among twenty Asians. This movie just charmed me from the outset. Ma Jiye is a billionaire's son, but his parents have set up an alternate universe for him with seemingly unlimited funds. Teng Shen and Li Ma are absolutely perfect in these roles. Only by overcoming the most incredible adversity can MJ grow up into a truly great man capable of running a giant corporation as the Successor. Ma Chenggang and Chunlan have engineered quite the environment. Ma Jiye is being raised by them, acting as a struggling couple, in a pathetic slum with a supposedly crippled grandmother in tow. Rina Sa was terrific as granny. Secret entrances and compartments reveal a sleek elevator, an esteemed chef and all of Ma Chenggang's employees. His English teachers were pretty cool, including a hot Russian babe. The whole conceit is so endearing and exciting to watch unfold. Despite knowing no Mandarin or Chinese, the subtitles were enough to keep me howling with laughter. He collects cans and bottles for family cash. He gets relentlessly bullied for being dirt poor. He runs three miles a day to get to school, then three back. This crazy routine impresses a track coach, who comes to their house to recruit him. But his parents fake a foot injury to keep him from becoming a jock. He's going to take the critical college entrance exam and get accepted into the best business school in the country if it kills them. The first born son inherits nothing in Chinese culture and here is painted as a loser idiot. But will MJ catch onto the family's elaborate scam and upset the apple cart? You'll never guess what's on the exam answer sheet that he submits to his proctor. The film is rather drawn out at 2:13 for a comedy. But unless you're dying to hit the bathroom, it's a nice long ride. There are also very good action scenes. Congratulations to directors Da-Mo Peng and Fei Yan.

I went in only expecting some mild humor, but I got a hilarious, dramatic, emotional, and thought-provoking movie. The English subtitles and humor translate over well to a western audience. The actor Teng Shen does a great job playing the father, pulling off a wide range of emotions with charisma. Some cultural context: * College entrance exams are a HUGE thing in China * Jack Ma is a famous billionaire * Education and Filial piety are also important in China. Strict parenting is more common in China than in the US. (Don't form stereotypes based on the above, please. They are generalizations)

I speak only english, so thank goodness there were english subtitles. There were actually a few small parts with full english speaking thrown into this awesome story. I'm not giving away anything about the film, but i will just honestly tell you that if you want something unique and filled with pure talent, see this. Foreign countries also make some of the best artistic entertainment. It's wonderful because the theater was i would say about 70% full and most all of the audience was asian and they loved and laughed and cherished this movie. I know it made them proud. And for me it was also an honor to watch something this great. 👍
