"Happy Times", a small time comedy out of China, tells of a less than successful middle-aged man who is desperately seeking a wife and finds a "daughter" instead. A lilting and sweetly sentimental comedy, this flick has a quirky kind of charm which defies description. I personally became completely bewitched by the film's simple, fresh, and unique style. But I suspect I'm the exception. "Happy Times" will most likely offer some happy time for sentimental viewers into neo-Chinese cinema exports. (B-)
