A mix of humor and touching moments that resonate primarily with Chinese audience

For a film intended to portray the stark realities of Asian parenting, I anticipated a resolution that more accurately mirrored the complexities of the tensions between children and their parents, such as Jayden undergoing a significant mental breakdown.However, Neo not only exaggerated the conflict by depicting Jayden's tiger mother as only realizing her mistakes after her son is struck by a car, but this approach also appeared to be a simplistic resolution to the intricate dynamics present in their mother-son relationship.The film targets a Chinese audience, which I believe will find it more relatable than Western viewers, who may struggle to grasp the concept of tiger mothers. Notably, I found the performances to be praiseworthy, with the cast delivering genuine portrayals of their characters. The chemistry among the characters enriches the narrative, enabling viewers to empathize with their challenges and victories.In summary, "I Not Stupid 3" is an engaging and enjoyable installment in the series, providing s across various age groups. It prompts viewers to contemplate the true essence of success and the significance of understanding and supporting one another amidst societal pressures.

Best of the Sequel

It goes from trivial stereotyping to more refined differentiations among tiger parents. The friendship and values clash is both realistic and dramatic. The high tea parent discussion and the reflection of their "actual difference" is revealing. Cast performs superbly and every one of them is a star.Only down is the final confession part which is a bit too explicit but that's the tradition of this Singaporean sequel and I would love it if I see it as footage.Perhaps pressurised, this episode no longer stereotype the bad part of Singaporean education, but the struggle of parents is forever green topic that is well executed.
