As a professional classical musician, I gave this 2 stars instead of 1 because it genuinely made me laugh... First off, everything from the classical music point of view is absolutely ridiculous. A famous touring cellist who still lives at the conservatoire with her teacher?... This cellist's idea of a perfect 2-week vacation is low budget traveling all over China - seriously?... Aside from the poor acting and the out of tune cello soundtrack, there are so many ridiculous and hilarious details, it's worth a watch just to have a good laugh, especially if you know anything about the classical music scene. This movie is trying to be so serious, almost like Whiplash mixed with Black Swan, but instead ends up so incredibly silly!
