BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.

peggy77359 One does not have to be Chinese or of Chinese origin to understand, appreciate the film. It simply touches you, no matter what your family background is, where you came from and what language you speak. It is a film of profound sentiments, sentiments between friends, between men and women, mother and daughter and yes, father and daughter, too.I am only sorry that I was not aware of the release of the film and bumped into it by chance only now, 24 years later. Perhaps, I should think that these years have actually enabled me to appreciate it more than 24 years ago when it first came out.Whoever reads the reviews and decides to look for the film should, I'd dare say, can consider himself/herself lucky, as it will make one feels deeper, live more intensely as all lives deserve.

Flicker-37 I saw The Joy Luck Club movie on the shelf at my library. I thought I had seen it years ago, wasn't sure, so decided to check it out. Well, from the moment the tape started I was mesmerized. Usually, I get up half a dozen times during a move, but I could not budge. My mother died 6 mos ago and it still hurts when I think of her. The Joy Luck Club made me aware of how much my mother meant to me, except I didn't know it while she was alive. The actress who portrayed the children's part were so lovely, especially Lindo when she was 4 years old. It is such a beautiful film, and it meant so much to me that I am going to watch it again before I return it. The characters' lives were all so interesting, and the mothers' love for their daughters was bittersweet. I only wish I had a daughter. When the movie was over, I was in tears and could not move for quite awhile just thinking about it. It just moved me so much, that I must put it on my top ten list of all time favorites.

bearatenc This most wonderful movie "yes,yes" is at the top of my list for all time favorites.Every time I watch, I am amazed by the excellent ability of these actress's to pull you into the story and believe they are the characters. You love, you laugh, you cry, it's wonderful! Ming wa is wonderful as June and Auntie Lindo is absolutely adorable!The scenery is wonderful as you travel with some of the characters to China, and the United States too. It makes you want to do research into the times and places they show, where you can more fully understand the storyline.You will definitely enjoy this movie.
