超时空同居 - How Long Will I Love U



超时空同居 (How Long Will I Love U) is an 2018 film out of Zhong Guo. The movie stars Tong Liya and Lei Jiayin. The movie was recently released in the theaters in Los Angeles where I caught it at a local AMC. If you've seen the trailer, you'll know the guys is from 1999 and the gal is from 2018. And they fall for each other, how can they make their love work?



Tong Liya plays Gu, a jewelry store clerk that's selling her flat and her hand in marriage. Lei Jiayin plays Lu, a property developer from 1999 looking for anyone that's willing to take a chance on his vision of a planned community. One night, their worlds converge and they have to figure out the time travel rules of their overlap. Gu starts to explore the world of 1999 and its old technology relics and Lu wants to find out the things that happen so he can invest in 1999. As they explore, they fall for each other.



This movie was fun. Its fun because the chemistry of the two leads work. I liked them both. Tong Liya being as beautiful as see is doesn't hurt either. But the casting for this movie seemed right that Lei was a good counterpart. The goofiness of Lei makes the love connection believable. Like other time travel love stories, this one got me hooked and laughing out loud many times.



Also, stay for the credit scenes, they are worth the extra time. I definitely learn more than a thing or two from it.
