I'd heard rave reviews about this film and I was very glad to have watched it.
However, it's not going to blow you away. It's a very nice film with good performances. But it isn't a 10/10 by any means.
The concept is a wonderful one. Yet it seems to limp to an ending in the last act - and not the one you'd think.
It's charming, well acted, has plenty of heart, seems an accurate depiction of Chinese beliefs - so it's well worth a watch. Best to taper expectations though.
7.5/10
Pat telling Stargirl if he doesn't come back to get her mom out of that town, move away. Is he forgetting that she is just a minor? As if her mom would listen to her and just move again because her young daughter says so. Lol

Aka. 6.4 points
At the end of the film Elisabeth Moss appears with a giant back pain.
If it weren't for her, my score on this film would definitely drop by half.
Oh nice Neon Genesis Evangelion reference ;)
