He is still single in his fifties, and it has become a habit for Sister Tao to continue to take care of Roger. One day, Tao Jie went to the market to buy food as usual, and went back to her apartment to make soup and prepare a table full of dishes. While waiting for Roger to go home from a business trip in the mainland, Tao Jie looked at the street view outside the window to kill time, but unconsciously fell into a coma on the ground.

Steels Roger is busy looking for a suitable nursing home for Tao Jie. During this period, he happened to meet Cao Meng (Huang Qiusheng), who was known in the past film shooting. Tao Jie was discharged from the hospital and went to a nursing home. The environment is very strange, and so are the friends in the hospital. Tao Jie pretended to be calm. After work, Roger often visits Tao Jie in a nursing home. Master and servant gossip as much as mother and son, and still maintain the habit of teasing each other.

The film gives up emotional means and shows this journey with a very calm and resolute attitude of refusing to take another step. Calmness and restraint are the moving features of this film. The second stroke, lying in a hospital bed, the priest held the hands of Andy Lau and Tao Jie, closed his eyes and prayed to God. At this moment, Tao Jie secretly opened his eyes and looked at Andy Lau who was closing his eyes and praying. Is this really the most touching scene in this movie? . (Tencent Entertainment Review)

Tao Jie is good, but not classic.

In such a calm and restrained way, the film sticks to the theme of "the journey of death", regardless of the shadow of death, and the duration is only 90 minutes. Sister Tao will be a rare classic film. However, perhaps because of lack of talent, it is impossible to cut into the theme of death. Sister Tao failed to show her different mental outlook in the face of death step by step, nor did she show the slow change of the relationship between master and servant. The whole process was uneven. Does this make Sister Tao just a rare good film, not a rare classic film? . (Tencent Entertainment Review)

Missing part

Ye Dexian and Andy Lau's wonderful performances in Sister Tao were widely praised by the audience. In order to be more in tune with the old drama bones like Ye Dexian and the overall charm of the film, Andy Lau even tried to get rid of the strong "star flavor" and interpret himself as an out-and-out ordinary person. In addition, dozens of guests in the film also gave wonderful performances. Hong Kong veteran filmmakers Tsui Hark,,,,, Roland and Gong, director Ning Hao, actors Amanda, Wang Fuli and Yu Dong, president of Bona Film, all gave wonderful performances in the film. Although there are not many scenes, their performances strive for perfection and occasionally surprise the audience? . (Netease Entertainment Review)

Relax in sadness

Sister Tao is said to be a tragicomedy. Under the premise of sad theme, the film has many happy and relaxed places. For example, Tao Jie asked Andy Lau why she didn't get married, saying that the tall girl who looked like a model last time was good. Andy Lau said that she was originally a model and had followed Aaron Kwok. For example, Andy Lau took Tao Jie to the movie premiere. Tao Jie said that when she was watching a movie, she saw someone leave and thought it was to go to the toilet, but she never came back. This kind of dialogue with hidden irony made foreign journalists laugh at the movie? . (Tencent Entertainment Review)
