这是一部农历新年期间上映的本地电影,老实说,我对于本地电影没有抱着多大的期待。在看过了预告片后,我就约了倩雯说要去看这部电影,她也说ok了。
我只是看了预告片,并没有真正去看它的简介,所以直到看电影之前,我一直以为这是关于3个女孩的故事。

The movie is about a plus-sized woman. The woman has been a plus-sized since she was a young. Her parents love her and did not nag her about her weight, unlike the typical Asian family. She had a bunch of great friends too. However, we know that society does not view plus-sized woman favorably. The guy she had a crush on dismiss her, people were laughing at her for her size (this happened because there was a video of her falling going viral).
The plot progresses when she was offered a job by an advertising company to be a social media influencer. As she became thinner and prettier, she slowly changed into someone else. She received constant pressure to change to become what the people want. Before she realizes it, she lost her friends and herself. She became more miserable as the story progresses before she finally hit breaking point. The story really hits home that you have to be happy with yourself instead of constantly seeking approval from everyone because you can never please everyone.
言归正传,这是一部关于1个女孩的故事(并不是3个),主要让我们知道别在意他人的眼光,勇敢做自己。女主角是个胖美眉,从小胖到大,但她没有因此而在意其他人怎么看她,只是一味地做着自己喜欢并享受的事。故事讲述女主角为了偿还一笔债务,被逼着减肥。瘦了之后,就被广告公司打造成一个全民女神。而她也从那个时候开始渐渐在意其他人怎么说她,在意不认识的他们的眼光。
这部电影所要表达的意思是非常好的,因为现时的社会有太多人活在别人的眼光下,不敢做自己。只会在乎网上那些人说的话,而对身边人的意见充耳不闻。
电影一开始就用了让我有点摸不着头脑的开头,就是那段在外太空上的自述。但接下来的人生解说就让我觉得很不错,藉由一个强烈的对比来述说女主角的人生,但缺点就是太长了,看得我有点闷。
电影里有着很多不同的马来西亚特色场景,这也是导演一贯的拍摄风格,借电影的画面告诉所有人马来西亚的美。这也可以说是马来西亚电影的特色之一吧~
There was a moment when I was confused in the movie. When the actress lost weight, they changed the actress playing her, so there were 3 different actresses playing one character. However, the change was too obvious. The personality of the second actress feels different from the other 2 actresses, which made the change a bit awkward.
I personally like the first actress the most. She was fun to watch and absolutely adorable. The second actress was a bit too soft spoken for me. The last actress was good, but sometimes it felt a bit stiff. The rest of the cast were great. I especially enjoyed the main character's group of friends. Each friend unique in their own way, instead of all of them being one stereotype. I also find the chef friend absolutely cute. He liked her even before she became model-thin and was loyal to her until the end.
我很佩服导演找来了3位不同身材的女生饰演同一个角色,说真的,我看预告时一直以为是3个女生的故事。这样的举动其实挺冒险的,因为会让人出戏,尤其是这3位女生的演技根本不在同一个水平上,也难免会被人拿来比较。
第一位就演得很自然,或许那也是她自己的性格吧,演得很不错。第二位就略显生涩,感觉还不习惯面对镜头,和父母视讯那一段就很明显看出她的生涩感。第三位的演技略好,但也有让人觉得尴尬的时候,偶尔还是会看到比较僵硬的瞬间。
另一方面,我倒觉得配角们都演得很好,尤其是女主角身边的那些姐妹/闺蜜。在医院的那一场就让我看了很想哭,因为真的感觉到他们很担心也很生气女主角,那种情绪的的确确打动了我。
男闺蜜也很不错哦,倩雯看了都说想要一个这样的男闺蜜,但都被我们吐槽说她根本只是想要一个会做饭的男生。

I actually enjoyed the movie a lot and would recommend you to watch the movie for its heartwarming story. I really hope to see more works by this director because I honestly want to watch Malaysian movies that are different from the typical plot we usually get from Malaysian movies.
这是一部值得买票进场的电影,如果马来西亚电影不能靠卡司、特技来取胜,那就靠着我们独有的人情味以及故事来获胜吧~
