View from an American in Shanghai


I recently saw this money and found that it was a great representation of the typical Asian-American as well as the way of life in this city.

Some of my friends commented in how we have been in these very situations such as when the taxi driving was instructed to drive to Jin Mao tower, but actually drove to the countryside. I felt that saw awe feeling that the character was portrayed as feeling when I first arrived and was surrounded by bright lights and tall buildings.

I did not find any innacuracies in this movie and I would like to point out that I often see western women with asian men, house prices have indeed recently risen dramatically, and that (from the experience of others) KTV girls do not always have a fee and can very well have emotions too.

The plot aspect where the guy's girlfriend is abused by a rich man is all too true. I have seen this myself and know someone who this happened too.

So for anyone that wants to say that this movie is innacurate, you should try living in this situation. The living situation here is much different than in America so things that would seem impossible there are very much the standard here.
