“WHAT MOVIE
MADE YOU CRY?”
IMHO

Curse of the Golden
Flower (2006)
Rating: 7.0/10 (IMDb)
Director: Yimou Zhang
Cast: Yun-Fat Chow, Li
Gong, Jay Chou
Genre: Drama, Romance
“If there is any movie that moves
me a lot, that is this movie. It’s
hard not to contemplate the depiction
of sacrifice of a son to
his mother, especially when
he is fighting for the sake of
her mother’s life (and justice
as a whole).”
(Rio, 2014)
(Zahirah, 2015)
“I’m not a fan of any
Korean stuff, so at
first I really underestimated
this movie.
However, I ended
up watching it with my
mom and sister, and the
three of us cried like babies.
Portraying emotional scenes with a touch
of comedy, this movie basically reminds
you that a father’s love is very pure − that
he will do anything for you. So make sure
whenever you are feeling melancholic, this
movie is on the top of your to-watch list.”

Ip Man 3 (2015)
Rating: 7.9/10 (IMDb)
Director: WIlson Yip
Cast: Donnie Yen,
Lynn Hung, Jin
Zhang
Genre: Action, Biography,
Drama
“Actually, I didn’t want to watch
this movie because the poster is not
attractive, but I had to because my
dad raved about it – and indeed,
it was really good. I was surprised
when the movie completely changed
from a total action movie to sad one.
Suddenly, my tears were falling off as Ip
Man decided to choose his family over his reputation
as a wing chun master. This movie teaches
you to always love and protect your family,
because the time will come when you lose them”
