Giving this an 7/10 rating
Dive into the world of music production, and it's very tough business. Writer director Norris Wong, does a splendid job with clever colourful visuals, with animated bits sprung in, good sound design, that is important since this a film about music, and great acting.
Suet-Ying Chung is very charming, soft and innocent as the lead role she plays, and she has it really tough, and you just wonder, why go through this, well she is determined, that's why, and she goes through the bad and the bad, as we she her journey to reach her goal. The other actors really do push the story along and are not just padding, the father character is the most fun, and there really is some laughs here and there, but it's mostly a very heart breaking journey, but a good one.
This is not 'Maestro' or 'A Star is Born', both films about the music industry, this is a different point of view of it, a lot more fun, and the right ending, it was really worth a look. A good Chinese film.
