The Feel-Good Part

This movie is a perfect blend of everything and is worth the watch. It is a unique storyline. The romance is well-written and deserves recognition. The visual effects are stunning, which led them to win an award at the “Golden Horse Film Awards”. Since it is a movie, short and splendid, it draws attention to every moment in the scenes. It is funny, heartwarming as well as scary.

The Disappointing Factor

The revenge plot is decent enough but also unsatisfactory for some as it is not like those mainstream revenge stories. Some parts of the story were hard to understand. So, it needs to be watched more than once to understand.
