The film has a great narrative arc, is very funny but really real, and gives a look at one section of China's hard workers: the food delivery riders.
Upstream is acted very well, and doesn't ever miss a best in story development or comic timing. It's a great feel-good tale too.
China is a point of interest now of course and one way to glimpse into its society without actually visiting is to watch this movie. The layers of propaganda from the countries of the West about China are so thick that even this one, a comedy but still real, can dissolve a few.
This country is doing so well though it should know its place is below the countries with the superiority complexes, so we get the propaganda to not like it to let our governments do whatever they please to this country.
This film helps us be less hateful while at the same time it's a ball watching it, a film this real we can feel it and relate, while laughing and shedding a tear too.
