Love the natural performances of the two elders in this film (Sihung Lung and Wang Lai), and at its best, it touches on the real struggles of getting older in ways that tug the heartstrings. I was less impressed by the character and performance of the daughter-in-law, and the culture clash aspects of the story seemed a little clunky. There was a fair bit of melodrama here, some of which seemed sloppy, and some of which was pretty humorous (the old man channeling his powers and not being moveable by a crowd of guys in the kitchen comes to mind). It's uneven but engaging, and has gentle charm. Worth seeing.
