Key opinion
Our Times is a nostalgic and sincere coming-of-age film that effectively captures the bittersweet essence of 1990s Taiwanese high school life. While it adheres to familiar teen rom-com tropes, it resonates with audiences through its genuine portrayal of first love, friendship, and personal growth.
| Culture | The film masterfully evokes a nostalgic, relatable atmosphere that transports viewers back to the innocence of 1990s school days. | |
| Acting | The performances, including those by debutants, succeed in conveying the sincere and vulnerable emotions of the adolescent protagonists. | |
| Theme | The narrative prioritizes heartfelt character development and the importance of inner beauty over superficial archetypes. | |
| Pacing | While the story is praised for its emotional weight, the third act suffers from a slower, dragging pace and a climax that leans into predictable genre clichés. | |
| Humor | The humor is occasionally perceived as forced or overly stylized for cinematic effect rather than feeling natural to the characters. |
