Seeing it at the Udine Far East Film Festival, I was struck by the raunchiness of the humor, starting with a classroom masturbation contest, and the originality of the story, which was based on Ko's semi-autobiographical novel about his long, on-again/off-again relationship with a cute, hard-working high school classmate. "Only in Taiwan," I thought. Not really. There is now a Japanese remake, directed by Yasuo Hasegawa, that closely follows the original. The gags remain low-brow, though the masturbation scene got the heave-ho. And the film still opens with the classmate marrying another guy, as the hero and his buddies, guests at her wedding, look on with resignation. This gives the rest of the story a bittersweet air, like starting a medical melodrama with the hero on his deathbed, reminiscing about happier days. And yet the film ends on a raucous up-note, proclaiming what most of us already know: The end of romance can be the beginning of friendship — and maturity. Having not watched the other version, I can't really compare them. But, judging from other viewers, it was pretty similar to the original. In any case, what I liked about the movie was the feel good vibes, the youthful story and the performances. The characters were interesting, unique and funny. I enjoyed especially the leading character. That said, everyone did a great job with the performances. However, when it came to the love story, that's when things got out of track. The movie kept promising to give something, but never did. It was like watching those two going in circles and never meeting. So, that was disappointing. I liked the Taiwanese version. So when the announcement was made that Japan will be remaking the movie, I was really excited. I didn't know the main actress but I have seen Yamada Yuki act before so I knew this will deliver. Was I right? Yes, but not entirely. The movie was a total copycat of the original version, from the set-up to the styling. Yamada Yuki was good in his portrayal as the guy who has a childish crush to his classmate. Though Ko Ching Teng still wins in a battle of who is better, still one can tell that Yamada was a good fit for the role. The problem lies with the female lead. She's just blank and bland. She doesn't know how to carry conversations naturally. Her voice and facial expressions are really awkward. You could tell that her visibly awkward acting makes her partner awkward too, it's contagious. Well, she's a rookie, still young, and I believe she will improve with more acting gigs. Also, the chemistry between the two leads isn't there and even the friendship among men wasn't as strong compared to the Taiwanese version. The movie lacked spice, emotions, they were short to every element the original had. Anyways, despite everything, the movie still made me feel bitter about the ending. They still made me feel the same way as I did when I watch the original version years ago. The regret and heartache, the whys... it's still there. And I guess, that alone will make you check out this version. Kosuke Mizushima is a high school student at a provincial city and enjoys a comfortable life.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth. I think the japanese adaptation after the original one did it just fine. It lived up to my expectations because I watched the trailer and I knew some scenes would be exactly very much the same with the Giddens Ko's oiriginal version. But! For some reasons, there are things I want to point out, things that I noticed while I was watching: Is You Are the Apple of My Eye Taiwanese or Japanese?You Are the Apple of My Eye (Chinese: 那些年，我們一起追的女孩, lit. 'Those Years, The Girl We Went After Together') is a 2011 Taiwanese coming of age romance film. What happens at the end of the apple of my eye?Eventually, they separate. They talk to each other once over the phone, a few years after separating. They reminisce the days they spent together, with the boy even thanking the girl for letting him love her. At the end, she marries someone a few years older than her. |
