Super Me (2019)

THIS HAS TO BE ONE OF MY FAVORITE MOVIES EVER!!!

From start to finish this movie was so interesting! It had a little bit of everything from fantasy/supernatural to action and romance.

Story:
All I have to say is that this movie is definitely worth watching and I feel that everything was portrayed in such a way so that the ending has a massive impact on the watcher and for me it surely did! I can’t say much about the story as everything you need to know before you watch the movie has already been shown in the trailer and all you have to do is try your luck and give it a go. One thing is for sure - you will not be bored~

Acting/cast:
As always, Darren Wang delivered a splendid performance - I am seriously always in awe by this man’s acting! In fact, all the actors dod a very good job and executing their characters and the acting never seemed forced or cringey. The action scenes were delivered so well that I literally had myself edging over my sofa looking forward to what would happen next.


I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is looking to watch an interesting action filled supernatural movie^•^

Copped Out At the End

Super Me has a great premise and it starts off great. Sang Yu is a young poor writer that learns to harvest his nightmares for big rewards. His greed and desire for the woman he's been pining away for gets the better of him. Sang Yu learns taking short cuts to achieve ones desires can come with a hefty toll.

The writing for the most part is good. Everything was going along fairly well until the end. The writer fell upon cliches and contrivances to move the story forward. The story is whitewashed leaving you with a happy hopeful ending then it takes a slight turn. I'm guessing the turn is supposed to spark debate and conversation, but, to be quite frank, I just didn't care. The CG effects were great.

The cast did their job. Darren Wang did a good job as Sang Yu. Everyone was just... good. They weren't bad. They weren't fantastic. They were just good. Actually, the pancake salesman, who was in the movie all of 10 minutes tops, gave the best performance out of everyone. He's a veteran actor and it showed. Cao Bing Kun's Sang Ge was also fun to watch.

Aside from the lead female singing (she was so unimportant and truly unnecessary in my opinion), the music was ok. It supported the scenes. I have no reason to watch this again unless I skip from dream sequence to dream sequence. I can't say I wasted 90 minutes watching it, but I do wish I'd had watched something else.
