Movie Reviews of Shower

Movie Review: The value of tradition
Summary: 5 Stars

It seems that China's rapid development is making some Chinese wonder about what they may be losing. This charming film tells the story of a man who returns home after many years from his busy life in the city to the bath house run by his father and retarded brother. He is gradually seduced by the peace and sense of community that he finds there, as well as his awakened sense of responsibility toward his aging father and handicapped younger brother. Touching and funny, with a wonderful cast of sharply drawn supporting characters. Writing about it makes me want to watch it again.

Movie Review: A Wonderful Joy of a Movie
Summary: 5 Stars

Every once in awhile one stumbles upon something which is extra special. Shower is just such a stumble. It is a wonderful, sensitive, warm, human movie. The characters are all people you would like to have as friends. Simply, it is the story of a father and two sons addressing the reality of life's changes.

There is only one reason you should not see this movie and that is if you just cannot deal with foreign films; otherwise, trust me, this is a movie you want to see. I think I'll watch it again!

Movie Review: Thank goodness for no sex and violence
Summary: 5 Stars

Thank goodness for once we can get a good flim without sex and violence instead a good family flim without silly talking animals, super cute apes and children so cute that they have been fed with sugar enough to bring in diabetes. The new crop of Chinese flicks are just great... Are'nt we jaded with the crop of rubbish Hollywood has poured on us in 2000. Like talking and kissing dinosaurs, a nude grinch, Independent women who dress like they are not....

I will watch foreign flims if Hollywood stops making all those rubbish.


Movie Review: Two thumbs up! Worthy of repeated viewings
Summary: 5 Stars

I won't go into the movie plot as you can read them from every other review. This is one of the few movies that is worth your time watching it multiple times, and each time you watch it you'll learn a few new things about the characters and grow to like them like they are members of your family. You'll want to live their lifes, to listen to their tales, to share their pain, to respect their ways of living, and yes, even to take a bath with them. 5 stars and one of the best movies I saw in the past 2 years.

Movie Review: Wonderful Waterworks!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I went into this film absolutely clueless as to what I should expect... But from it's opening shots to it's gentle ending, I was amazed, inspired, enlightened and overwhelmed. It is a quiet and simple tale of family and community. It is timeless, and has no borders. You will love the quirky characters and the interesting situations. I loved it, all of it, and plan to re-watch many times. If you liked "Smoke Signals" or "Adrenaline Drive," you owe it to yourself to check this one out!
