    Charming and fun over the top social commentary bundled into a heist movie.

    ★★

    I appreciated this movie for its focus on beautiful architecture and the cinematography that framed it. It was unique in the way that they tried to make these sites/buildings into their own characters for you to get to know and love.

    In a twist of irony though, every actual character in this movie is about as flat and lifeless as a sterile office building. Dialogue is colorless and awkward, as if they were reading off the notes on a storyboard.…

    I want to like this movie because of the Asian representation in both content and actors, but the 90s cheese/hallmark-esque dialogue really was unbearable. All the conflicts were resolved with a dramatic theatrical monologue and no follow up or conclusion. 

    Overall I’m glad it exists though - it tackles a widespread family dynamic amongst one demographic and contextualizes it for everyone else.
