As a fan of Jue ji, I went to see it immediately after its releasing. The scene was just the same as what I had imagined-the appearance and personalities of the characters and the choice of actors. I give a score of 8 out of 10 partly because of the director's choice of the actors. But most importantly, the movie brought the people in the book and in my imagination onto the screen, making me feel that they had come into the real world or that I was in their world. However, I don't think Guo Jingming has given enough consideration to the feelings of those people who didn't read his book before. The relationships between characters were hard to figure out by watching the movie only. The emotions were hid so deeply in character's eyes and expressions that couldn't be sensed by audience at first. So I recommend you to read the book before going to the theater and pay more attention to the details while watching.
