Personally, I like to the films of this director in the past. Most of them were very good comedies (in Chinese sense of humor).
Back in 1997, there was a movie named 'The Dream Factory' by Xiaogang Feng(the same director) and You Ge(the same main actor) demonstrate this dream creating idea to public audience. That movie was a very good comedy. So this is just like a remake of that one after 17 years. Now surprises to me.
If you could survive the first 10 mins of the movie, you could take the rest of it. I don't get the point of the first short story. I feel like it ruins the whole movie.
All of the three stories are based on modern Chinese social issues. They are not new to people and there are too much public education in them. A good story makes the point very clear and it's redundant to say it out loud. As well as the last part of apology.
My favorite part is the last last interview. It is very short, but you can see the big point of people in it.
