The film “gua sha”tells the story the life of an immigrant American family that came from Beijing: the 5-year-old Chinese child Dennis stomachaches and had a fever, so his grandfather use Chinese traditional way-gua sha-to treat him.However, Datong couple was accused of child abuse and then, one after another evidence of witnesses had made the couple in a trouble, because Western medicine can not simply understand this traditional Chinese therapies.In court, a series of debates came, a happy family shortly became so fragmented.All this reaction came from the large level of globalization ,which is cultural differences.Gua sha is a Chinese traditional treatment methods spread over two thousand years, of course, there will be some congestion in the body traces, but the body is good.In the film, Ta Tung said: “I love America!Here is my home!” Eight years of American life has made him confident that he was American.But no matter how he said, how fluent English he said， how American life he loves,his bones are rooted in traditional Chinese culture.For example, Dennis and a friend's son fight, he would give his son punishment in public,and he says“playing the curse of love is pain”.All this is known as “Democracy, rule of law, science,” which are the American political and the law can not understand.Contempt for his country's culture is actually the concept of an individual's culture and values in this kind of contempt.I had forgotten who said these words.Americans and Chinese people educate their children in a different way.The United States in this way, not to say desirable, but at least you can listen to the child's views and opinions.Although there is no independent civilian child ability, but he is conscious and has some ability to distinguish an independent entity.Even if they will not all believe the child, the child’s words can also be part of his reaction to judge his true condition.At this point,the movie did not reflect.The U.S.attorney hired by the prosecution in court described the “Journey to the West” in the Monkey: Ta Tung immigrant to the U.S.to prove violent: “They planted nine years of peaches, he did not say hello to fight with the owner they pick to eat, when people stop him, he does not only did not listen to discourage, but also fight and ruined people's Taoyuan.No Chinese people would stand such stupid words towards Chinese traditional culture!

Sino-us differences in performance of the film, but also expressed cultural assimilation, cultural fusion of a kind of yearning.Abram passed from Queensland Chinatown porcelain store, personal try ”gua sha“;From xu Datong get rid of shows, downstairs police, residents erupted with applause, from he climbed the ninth floor of the house, the house and the children of alarm welfare leadership congratulated him holy happiness, welcome home, audiences seem to see the westerners preached the Chinese and western cultural barriers, began to approach of traditional Chinese culture, and eventually conquered all human feelings.The end of the story is perfect, but also must not ignore the cultural difference side, which requires us to strengthen exchanges and communication, hope in the near future, a ”Datong" world really will appear in front of us!

Impressions of the film Gua Sha

Some time ago, I watched a movie called Guasha.It is a movie about the differences between American and Chinese culture.There’re a lot of conflicts in this movie, such as the criteria of abusing children, the using languages between the different generations, the ways of teaching children.Of course, the main one is Chinese traditional values and American ones.It is showed on three characters, Datong, his wife and Grandpa.Datong is the central character that the director chose to express the theme.His words, his actions, his thoughtway, all represent the Chinese traditional values.His wife are very well educated and wants only Engllish spoken in her home.As an old Chinese, Grandpa can accept the American values partly, but not to follow.Undoubtely, Iam feeling a lot from that movie.The most important is the Culture Shock.

第三篇：刮痧英文观后感

“Scrape” is indeed a good film for us to see.When I was seeing the film, I was touched by its wonderful plot.The film narrates that the main character named Xu Datong came to America 8 years ago and he realized his American Dream.He has a successful career and a happy family, everything is going well.But one day, he was told that his son was maltreated by himself.The truth is that his son Denis has a fever and a stomachache, but his grandfather can’t understand the English instructions on the medicine bottle.Therefore, he uses the traditional Chinese medicine therapy “Guasha” to cure his grandson, which becomes the evidence of the father’s abuse to his son.And the traditional Chinese therapy “Guasha” seems to be the tool that is used to maltreat children in the eyes of foreigners.In China, scrape is a very normal thing for people to accept, and why it becomes so complicated and difficult for foreigners to acknowledge the traditional Chinese therapy.Facing with the new explanation of traditional Chinese culture and moral standard by prosecution lawyer, Xu Datong loses his mind and is hard to calm down.The judge announces to exploit his right of guardianship over his son.And he is not allowed to meet his son and he is very angry at the time of the scene.When the defense lawyer of the opposite talks about the role named “Monkey King”, we can see that many foreigners are unfamiliar with the Chinese culture.Analyzing from the aspect of Chinese and Western’s thoughts, the

western countries are controlling the world with their strong economic and military strength, and they try to centralize unify the western model of the civilized world.Therefore, they start to smear and debase other civilization pattern.The western society is never research extensive and profound Chinese culture seriously and they don’t know more about the Chinese culture.As a result, foreigners are unable to understand “Guasha” in the movie.As we all know, thoughts of western people are more open than us, but they can’t accept the thing without any scientific proof.In the aspect of education, when the Chinese parents deal with the fight between two children, they will educate their own child firstly, while the western parents will respect the truth.So Xu Datong’s action to educate his son is seen as violence even abuse.The traditional Chinese notion is that parents give birth to their child and they have the right to educate them well, other people are with no right to interfere.However, parents are just legal guardian to their children in America, and they have no right to scold their kids and to say nothing of fight their children.Therefore, the Chinese notion of education is rather different from the western notion of education,Legally, America is a legal system country, law exists in the every corner and every dispute can be solved by the way of law.They emphasize on the truth and evidence.Finally, Xu Datong was announced

to leave his son, according to law, the court’s adjudication is right.But many Chinese people are unable to accept it, which we can see the difference between China and America.We have to acknowledge that American people emphasize personal rights;they use law and social institutions to limit people’s action, especially to the protection of juveniles.They think everyone is equal and has their own rights.We can learn something good from American law.In conclusion, cross-cultural communication may have some conflicts.In order to reach the agreement, we should learn to respect other different cultural customs in the process of cultural communicating.We need to have tolerant attitude, and eliminate national prejudice and adhere to the principle of equal culture.

Consideration about Gua Sha

The movie Gua Sha(The Treatment)is typical for showing explicitly the differences of culture and the way of thinking between countries as well as modern and tradition.It tells the story about Xu Datong, a video games designer in St.Louis.When his father visits from China, he performs Gua Sha(a Chinese traditional treatment)on his grandson, which leaves bright red marks on the skin and causes a lawsuit of child abuse.In the court, Datong loses his mind so that finally he loses custody of his son.Gua Sha is a treatment in traditional oriental medicine in which a wooden board repeatedly slides across the patient's acupuncture acupressure massage points.It works in similar principles like that of acupuncture acupressure massage.This method would inevitably leave bruise on the skin.Actually, the treatment of Gua Sha means to get rid of blocks and obstacles in the body and to make one healthy and sound.In the movie, it also means to break the differences of culture and the way to thinking between China and the United States.Apart from the culture distinctions, the way of thinking is also different between the two countries.The U.S.always pays more attention to logical thinking and the respect for an individual person, even if it’s just a kid and they always seem cold and indifferent to us Chinese.While in China, we value much the collectivism, which means we cherish and care our parents, our children, our families as well as others and even strangers.In the movie, there are cultural conflicts and cultural convergence going together.Datong is a name which means the same and harmony, and Datong is the father who is trying to integrate his Chinese cultural beliefs into his daily American reality.The conversations of this film are also a combination of Chinese and English, just like the world, a combination of Chinese culture and American culture, holding true things to the integration of both worlds.The movie also shows the eternal theme of love.The love between parents and children, couples, friends, and even strangers which we can see clearly from the last part of the movie when Datong succeeded in climbing to his home on the ninth floor, people who are watching as well as the policemen all applause and congratulate him.This is love which is eternal in the universal even if there are differences.What impresses me the most is the last scene, when on Christmas day，Datong, who misses his son so much, pretends to be Santa Claus climbing along the water pipe to his house on the ninth floor.I’m almost in tears when I see their family holding together no matter what obstacles they are facing.In the end, Chinese culture, like Gua Sha, can also be approved by the west gradually, which means the integration of different cultures and also means a world of Datong, a world of harmony.

第五篇：《刮痧》读后感

《刮痧》观后感

在美好的圣诞节氛围中，一身圣诞老人打扮的许大同与简宁和孩子抱在一起痛哭，看到这样的情景，不禁让人心酸。这样的结局，可是我似乎总觉得缺少了一些东西。

在这部电影中，虽然强调的是文化冲突，可是我觉得更像是提醒我们要珍惜我们古老优美的文化，那是我们的根。外国人可以不理解，但是我们自己一定要把它当成传家宝一样珍惜。在我们这一代，中国文化的遗失问题已经迫在眉睫了。大家似乎都对中国古老悠久的文化没有任何感觉了，不仅没有了热爱，更有甚者是觉得中国文化不屑一提。这是多么让人痛心？！看到电影里那些外国人对中国文化的不屑，那种根本不屑去了解的觉得根本就很荒谬腐朽的态度，难道就不能激起我们对自己文化的珍惜？文化是民族的根，一个失去了自己文化的民族，就像一棵失去了根的大树，即使再枝繁叶茂，也终究只会走向枯萎。

说到这，我就很想说说我的看法了。我觉得的确中国文化中有糟粕，可是哪国文化中没有糟粕呢？我们那么多优美的古老文化的光芒难道不能掩盖那些糟粕？显然是能的。可是有些人就爱拿我们文化中的糟粕说事，从来就不看看我们的精华，片面的否定我们的文化。真是可气！

在文化冲突中，有些人也总是倾向于外国文化。这真是让人很无奈。比如教育孩子，许大同打了孩子就是为了给他朋友一个面子，当然不是赞同家长打孩子，可是我觉得外国人也必须要理解我们所表示的尊重，而不是只知道指责我们的打孩子。我很倔强的觉得我们的一些观念是几千年来产生的，是符合我们中国人的，没必要盲目跟着外国人改变我们的观点。就像是我们可以为了亲情牺牲自己，我们可以感情用事，我很喜欢简宁说的那句话：“因为他是中国人！”

再来看看我们的出国热吧。当然我先要说我们不能一叶障目，不能因为文化的冲突就去全盘否定外国的文化，我们还是需要从外国文化中吸取精华，否则，全盘的否定只会让历史悲剧重新上演。但是，正如鲁迅先生说的，吸取精华不是拿来主义，现在大家的出国都是为了吸取精华吗？显然不是。在一个盲目崇拜外国文化的环境中，大家开始因为自己对外国文化的崇拜或是环境的被迫纷纷选择出国。这样有意义吗？最终只是造就了一堆海归派，一个大家都是对之苦笑的名词。

我们必须承认外国有些文化的先进，我们也需要学习，但我们学习的同时也需要理智。文化是在一定的背景中产生的，所以不是所有的先进文化我们都可以拿来用的。一味滥学滥用，只会打乱我们自己的文化。我在这里想强调的就是希望大家在学习和利用外国先进文化时都能理智一点。要相信我们自己的文化也是很优秀的！！看到电影中许大同和简宁的委屈，想想许大同领奖时的那句话“为留在美国而自豪”我真是觉得脸红，不知道美国人看到这些想拼命留在美国的中国人是不是很可笑呢？有自己的国家，却拼命留在外国，忍受着外国人的践踏，真是何必呢。当然现实没有我说的“践踏”那么夸张，可是我觉得活在自己的国土难道不是一种幸福吗？

最后误会消除了，许大同一家三口团圆了，可是这样的结局圆满吗？我始终不能忘记老人走的时候那番话，那个背影。都说养儿为防老，可是老人却孤身一人回到了北京，一个人孤独终老。当然我也知道许大同也不想这样，可是事实就是老人自己颤巍巍的离开了美国，离开了自己这辈子可能再也见不到的最爱的孩子们。这份亲情就这样成了许大同美国梦的牺牲品。但愿现实不是这样的残酷！
