While China’s film industry is still wrapping one rotten film after another into splendid spectacles, someone has served up the “cow dung” so plainly that it tells you in no uncertain terms: this is exactly a crappy pile of very bad “shit,” shoddily made and utterly boring.

But why do people pay for it? On the one hand, everyone really just wants to laugh without any psychological burden. On the other hand, they also hope that the capital markets will understand this: even an indignant common man, when enraged, can splash blood three feet.

Everyone has had enough of being manipulated by public opinion and the experience of being muzzled while complaining. Hopefully Chinese cinema can have this farce tear off its mask, and that no box office revenue is contributed for “cow dung,” because I feel it’s not much different from tearing up the money.
