A real case of the feels

A notable addition to the "nostalgic high school drama" genre. This movie gave me all the feels with plenty of adorable and swoon-worthy moments between the leading cast members.

That being said, Our Times is not the most well-crafted movie. There are a ton of subplots/loose threads that don't get resolved and are forgotten pretty quickly. In particular, the part about Taiyu's health seems like it was only added for emotionally manipulative purposes; we get this dramatic flashback of all his dramatic head injuries but never see any real consequences of them. I mean, I'm personally glad he ended up okay, but it felt half-baked to introduce this dramatic twist and then never follow through with it. The movie also seemed to jump around a lot, without a lot of transitioning/explanation.

I also wish we'd gotten to know some of the supportive characters a bit more . We barely get to know Zhenxin's friends, Tao Minmin, or even Ouyang Feifang that well. Taiyu and Zhenxin's own character development arcs are better fleshed out, but I just wish some of the other characters were more fully formed.

In sum, this movie is a roller coaster of emotions. It's definitely an enjoyable, if somewhat confusing time, and the soundtrack is great. I would recommend watching with friends, and preparing to let the tears and laughter flow.
