鬼書友 The Dorm

友 誼 情 真 , 不 因 人 鬼 而 殊 途
觸 動 最 窩 心 的 校 園 回 憶
驚 慄 中 散 發 無 盡 驚 喜

The Dorm is a touching story about the friendship between a lonely boy and a ghost who has no friends. The ghost helps the boy adapt to the new environment, while the boy helps release the ghost from pain and the past. At the beginning, the boy is afraid of the ghost. As time goes by, they become best friends. The ending is simply moving and I heard some members of the audience crying. At the end, different parts of the school without students are beautifully shot,
which reminds me of my school and my friends whom I have not contacted for long. People do need friends and ONE best friend would be enough!

If you expect to watch a horror movie, you will surely be disappointed as the film is simply not frightening.  On the contrary, the main characters including the ghost look cute and the ghost never hurts people. Feeling lonely, he is just looking for attention, concern and love. 

Anyway, the movie is worth watching owing to their touching friendship depicted in detail, though the director's previous movie MY GIRL 小 情 人 is more appealing to me. I give it 3 stars out of 5.
