Movie Reviews of The Joy Luck Club
Movie Review: Great Movie!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie did not stereotype Asian men, as one reviewer suggested. The fathers of several characters were portrayed as caring, loving, and supportive individuals. This story was about overcoming grief, poverty, and the emotional and physical struggles that many foreigners who come to this country often encounter. Grab out the tissue box, sit back, relax and enjoy this wonderful film about the importance of relationships, and the strength and power that one can gain from a tough life.Movie Review: Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie will touch your heart. Wonderful, if sad and tragic, story keeps you engaged at all times. The direction, cinematography and performances are all first rate. Special mention goes to Rachel Portman's haunting score- a beautiful blend of western music and Chinese themes and instruments. Unfortunately no soundtrack appears to be available so this is the only place you will hear it.Highest recommendation!
Movie Review: one of the best asian family film i have seen
Summary: 5 Stars
Flawless and Beautifully Rieveting
"The Joy Luck Club" has to be the best movie I have ever seen, and probably will be the only one of it's kind. The story is beautiful and timeless and I encourage everyone to see it. It makes you think of the relationships of your family and how, even though this is a movie, it can impact you beyond belief. It will rock you to the core of your being and I am living proof.
Movie Review: Stories of a Lifetime.
Summary: 5 Stars
I am in love with the beauty of this film. I love seeing the relationships between each mother and daughter. How the mothers tried so hard to make their daughters a certain way, to have a better life, and the daughters reacting negatively to it. I love see all the stories, even though a lot are heartwrenching. It's well acted and the musical score is beautiful. A warm, tearjerking movie.Movie Review: Excellent Movie Mirrors Excellent Book
Summary: 5 Stars
A breathtaking film in of itself. The Joy Luck Club is also a model for film adaptation of books. What I saw in my mind's eye while reading the book was brought to new levels in the film. The story is a gripping one for those who enjoy human drama and relationship films. The film really speaks to the truth that we are all shaped by our parents, especially our mothers.
