The following is an 800-word review of Gua Sha that I share with you. Welcome to read. 800 words after watching Gua Sha 1

"Gua Sha" is a film shot in mainland China that uses the scraping treatment method in traditional Chinese medicine as a carrier and reflects the cultural conflict between China and the West. Xu Datong, a Chinese who immigrated to the United States When a child caught a cold, the Chinese family used scraping to treat it. However, they were unexpectedly sued by the child protection organization because they believed that Xu Datong was suspected of child abuse. Although the misunderstanding was eventually eliminated, it left Xu Datong with a serious problem. Life has had disastrous consequences. After watching this movie, I can't help but feel relaxed. On the one hand, I was moved by the deep love of Xu Datong, the father played by Tony Leung Ka Fai, for his children and family. On the other hand, I was also moved by the huge gap between Chinese and Western cultures and their understanding of each other. I regret the asymmetry.

The cultural differences between Chinese and Western civilizations are understandable and inevitable. To eliminate this cultural gap, we must enhance mutual understanding. Only in this way can we eliminate misunderstandings, but It is a pity that the exchanges between Chinese and Western civilizations have different attitudes and initiatives, and are very asymmetrical. In other words, the Chinese people’s understanding of Western culture is far greater than the Westerners’ understanding of Chinese culture. It can be seen from the film that Xu Datong was very yearning for life in the United States at first and seemed to have integrated into the mainstream Western society. However, this was all Xu Datong's own efforts to adapt. They were able to adapt in a society dominated by Westerners. Making a difference shows that they understand Western culture very well. However, after the "Gua Sha" incident, what shocked Xu Datong's family was that Westerners were not only ignorant of Chinese traditional culture, but even had some misunderstandings and distortions, such as the film The Chinese opposing lawyer’s explanation of Chinese elements such as “Gua Sha” and “Sun Wukong” can be said to be completely slanderous. Even if the lawyer did it intentionally, the judge and Xu Datong’s boss had no idea about it. This is caused by the asymmetry of cultural exchanges.

This asymmetry of cultural exchanges has resulted in differences in mutual understanding of cultures. Chinese people’s understanding of Western culture is far greater than Westerners’ understanding of Chinese culture, and the asymmetry of cultural exchanges , and is proportional to the strength of the country. At present, Western culture is the mainstream culture in the world. This is because Western countries are usually economically developed countries, so Westerners themselves will have a sense of cultural superiority, so they cannot Take the initiative to understand the cultural traditions of other nations, including Chinese traditional culture. But as Chinese, we must enhance cultural exchanges. Not only must we learn more about Western culture, but we must also actively spread our own culture to the world. In the past, we They don’t pay attention to their own traditional culture, and even China itself has to belittle its own traditions. Just imagine how many people in China really know "Gua Sha" now, and how many people in China think of traditional Chinese medicine when they see a doctor. No wonder "Dragon Boat Festival" is also regarded by others Squatting, chopsticks are also considered by Westerners to be invented by the Japanese, and so on. Now that China's economic strength has become stronger, naturally more people are learning Chinese culture. I believe there are misunderstandings like "Gua Sha" in the movie. Less and less.

In this movie, the person who should be most reflected on is Xu Datong himself. Rather than blaming the "Gua Sha" incident on cultural conflicts, it is better to blame it on Xu Datong's personal mistakes or his character. In the film, Xu Datong and his wife knew about the relevant laws in the United States, such as the law on the protection of children, and the traditional Chinese medicine "Gua Sha" is not recognized by the law, etc., but they did not take it seriously subjectively and did not realize that they were disrespectful. The serious consequences of these laws, the fact that Xu Datong left his children alone at home late at night, which should not be done anyway, and the fact that he beat the children in front of everyone, cannot make people agree that he is a child. The father of a person in charge later gave his statement to the judge for the first time. It was obviously mostly a performance. He just wanted to go through the motions to solve the problem, and the lawyer he hired was also a layman. His tearful performance made people feel a little bit sad after watching it. Disgusting, at least it makes people think that he is not an honest person. In the end, his series of impulsive actions once again proved his immaturity of character and lack of calm thinking in the face of crisis. The most direct reason for Xu Datong's tragedy is his lack of understanding of the law. Indifference to the law, I believe, is not a tradition of our Chinese culture. In any culture, dishonesty and illegal behavior should be condemned.

The character image of Xu Datong in this film is a typical product of the combination of Chinese and Western cultures. It is a complex of Chinese and Western cultures. In him, he not only has the traditional Chinese culture of respecting the elderly, He has a child-loving, dedicated and family-oriented character, and has a strong sense of Western personal adventure and heroism. As a son, he felt guilty for not being able to honor his father well. After he became rich, he took his old father to the United States to take care of him. This is a typical Chinese thinking. Although the father cannot adapt to the new life, he is still very happy inside. As a father, he is happy for his children. He turned into "Batman" on Christmas Eve. It can be said that he did not care about his own life. , the collision of two different cultures in his body, the result is not only a spark of wisdom, but sometimes also leads to tragedy. For example, the design of Sun Wukong into the game was an unexpected success, and won the game design award, but in Chinese People’s way of thinking in educating children, for example, “Hitting is for affection, scolding is for love”, “Hitting one’s own children is to give face to the other party”, and it also makes him fall into the quagmire of “domestic violence”, so how to deal with this kind of Cultural differences are the most crucial for Chinese people like Datong. 800 words after watching Gua Sha 2

I watched the movie "Gua Sha" recommended by my teacher last weekend. I thought the movie was very good-looking and had several outstanding points, which left a very deep impression on me. So I want to share it with you here. I think "Gua Sha" is an excellent film that is suitable for audiences of different cultural backgrounds and has many successes.

The movie "Gua Sha" tells the story of a Beijing immigrant family living in the United States: Dennis, a 5-year-old Chinese child, suffered from a stomach fever. His grandfather had just arrived in the United States from Beijing and did not know how to take medicine. According to the English instructions on the website, Dennis was treated with scraping therapy, which has been popular among Chinese folk for a long time. Unexpectedly, this became evidence that Dennis's father, Xu Datong, abused his children and was brought to court. In the court, a series of conflicts followed, and a originally happy and beautiful family became fragmented in the blink of an eye.

Why does Gua Sha, which is just a trivial matter to the Chinese, turn into a troublesome matter requiring lawsuits as soon as it arrives in the United States? Gua Sha has been practiced in China for hundreds of years and even With thousands of years of history, why has it become illegal to abuse children in the United States? These questions naturally cause people to think about it.

In the opinion of many people, the emergence of these problems is due to the differences between Chinese and Western cultures. In the final analysis, the misfortune that happened to Xu Datong's family was also due to the differences between Chinese and Western cultures. However, in my opinion, the misfortune that happened to Xu Datong's family was not so much due to the cultural differences between China and the West as it was due to the court's failure to correctly understand and verify the illegal evidence. Because the cultural differences between China and the West are an objective factor in the court's decision-making, it cannot be the direct cause of misfortunes for the same family. Only when cultural differences or cultural blind spots are not recognized, can legal injustice be caused and bring disaster to Xu Datong's family.

The main clue in this film is Gua Sha. Gua Sha, as a kind of Chinese medical culture, has been spread in China for more than 2,000 years. However, there is no “scientific” explanation for Gua Sha in American culture. Therefore, it is not surprising that gua sha is not known to Americans. It is also not surprising that the gua sha marks left on Dennis's back are considered by Americans to be evidence of child abuse. However, as a country governed by the rule of law, we cannot fail to understand and verify the evidence of Gua Sha just because people do not understand it or do not recognize it, nor can we reject it and ignore it because of the differences between Chinese culture and American culture.

Because the law emphasizes justice, and the court’s judgment of cases focuses on facts. However, this is what happened in this film. Without really understanding Gua Sha, cultural differences or cultural blind spots, the court made the decision to deprive Xu Datong of his right to support his son. This is undoubtedly due to the lack of correct understanding and verification of illegal evidence, which resulted in the conflict between law and justice, and ultimately led to the tragedy of many Datong families.

Imagine if the court could truly understand Gua Sha, understand the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, and correctly understand and verify illegal evidence. Will it still make such a ridiculous verdict? I think that is absolutely impossible. It can be seen that the misfortune of Xu Datong's family is not so much caused by the differences between Chinese and Western cultures, but rather by the lack of correct understanding and verification of illegal evidence hidden behind the differences between Chinese and Western cultures.

On the other hand, it can also be clearly seen that this is a method used by the American lawyer to win the lawsuit. All of this seems unbelievable to the Chinese. However, in this film, these unbelievable practices have become evidence that Xu Datong has violent tendencies. What is even more incredible is that this evidence has been approved by the court. Agree. Is this the fault of the differences between Chinese and Western cultures? No, in my opinion, this is more the fault of not correctly understanding and verifying the evidence accusing Xu Datong of violent tendencies. Can the American lawyer still use it as a means to win the lawsuit? I think this is impossible.

In a nutshell, this also shows that the misfortune of Xu Datong's family was due to the failure to correctly understand and verify the illegal evidence.

Father's love, this is another shining point of the film. The impatience and impulsiveness shown by Xu Datong at the hearing in the film is completely different from his character as an engineer. I think it is caused by his anxiety and fear of losing custody of his children. In the film, Xu Datong secretly takes the child away despite the threat of breaking the law. Then the police found them. In order to prevent his children from knowing the truth, he played a game of police catching robbers with them. The scene was light and cheerful, and the child fell asleep happily. At the end of the film, Xu Datong climbed nine floors, pushing his love for children to the top. Another scene of fatherly love in the film is the love that Xu Datong's father has for Xu Datong. For example, he went to the prosecutor to explain the truth about gua sha, such as his father who burst into tears at the airport, and his father who scolded his fellow countrymen for escaping. This is the love a father has for his children!

From the above, it can be seen that in the film "Gua Sha", the misfortune of Xu Datong's family was ultimately due to the failure to correctly understand and verify the illegal evidence, which resulted in Law and justice run counter to each other. Specifically, Xu Datong's family's misfortune was caused by the failure to correctly understand and verify the objectively existing illegal evidence hidden behind the cultural differences between China and the West, resulting in an unfair judgment and a contradiction between law and justice.

The misfortune of Xu Datong's family in the film "Gua Sha" was due to the failure to correctly understand and verify the illegal evidence, which resulted in an unfair verdict. At this time, the sentence that most easily reminds us is what Francis Bacon once said: "An unfair sentence has the consequences of ten crimes." Some people may say that "Gua Sha" is just It is a film, just a kind of art, which is not enough to explain anything. But what deserves our attention is that in addition to being higher than life, art also comes from life. There are also cases in our lives that result in unfair judgments due to the failure to correctly understand and verify evidence of illegal crimes.

After watching the movie "Gua Sha" and thinking about it in relation to the current reality of the rule of law in our country, I am really moved. How long will it take for the law to become synonymous with justice? I remember that I once conducted such a survey in my class, which was a survey on the credibility of the law. However, the survey results are sad. Most people think that the law is not trustworthy. This is not because the law itself is a bad law, but because the injustice of the judiciary leads to the untrustworthiness of the law that cannot represent justice. But we hope that in the near future, the law will not run counter to justice because of judicial injustice, or at least it will not run counter to justice due to the failure to correctly understand and verify evidence of illegal crimes. At that time, the law can really become a synonym for justice. In another survey on the credibility of the law, people's answers were like this: "Yes, I believe in the law."

"Gua Sha" is an excellent film suitable for audiences of different educational levels. It has many successes and is rich in cultural connotation. Of course, the matter was eventually resolved satisfactorily and the court case was dropped. This kind of result is due not only to people's normal conscience, but also to mutual communication and understanding. I think the name of the male protagonist in "Gua Sha" is "Datong", and this is its purpose or symbol! If this movie is a fable, its moral is also here.

Although the movie "Gua Sha" is only over 100 minutes long, the spiritual connotation it reflects cannot be underestimated. Through "Gua Sha", we can better understand the cultural differences between China and the United States, and better understand the world in today's globalized world. But we still need more good works to broaden our horizons.
