Review of Taipei Exchanges (2010) by Stephen Y — 09 Sep 2010

I rate this movie 3.75 stars or perhaps 4 (I'm on the fence.).

A Taiwanese made film, its a nice touching story that's well written and directed. In fact it the most Taiwanese I've heard in about 15 years but I think there were other dialects mixed in there ...too. Interestingly, one of the songs in the movie is Japanese (though the Japanese dude can't sing), and one I heard growing up. I think its called Furusato (Means: Home/Hometown).

Acting was well done and the main actress is cute. I guess Taiwanese girls have a particular way about them that makes them different. If you're a guy, my advice from the movie would be..."slow and steady wins the race" and know some good stories to tell.

I liked this movie and recommend it highly.
