i'll mention the bits i found better than average: the mao-mao song was fun, the conversation on the train was intense and critical (and the best part of the movie by far), and that which followed the train was mostly okay. otherwise filled with blandly presented didactics. the idea of the young petit bourgeous naively exploring revolutionary marxism is something that could be great, but it just wasn't bold or transparent enough.
