Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Nice Guy A nobody actor tries to make it in the movie industry. Meanwhile, on the sides he teaches acting: A call girl learns to act like a virgin, and small time bullies learn to act tough.If you like asian humor, you'll love this one. Me and my friends had a good laugh watching the situation comic in this movie. If you have a 12 year old sense of humor like us you'll be rolling on the floor. Much better than the tepid, often uninspired US comedies.FYI: $7 hong-kong = $1 US, that will help you see how cheap the characters are.
freakus There are some truly hilarious moments in this film; the action sequences with "Sister Cuckoo", the montage in the Community center, and the scene where he teaches the Ice-cream yakuza how to be tough all had me rolling with laughter. Cecilia Cheung does a good job for her first performance, the "hand game" scene where we are first introduced to her seemed very natural and a lot of fun. She makes a very good tough girl, she has a natural growl to her voice. Stephen Chow is great as the earnest yet bumbling hero, and Karen Mok is always a lot of fun even though her role in this film is relatively small.
SiuWing Maybe I had too high expectation before entering to the cinema to watch this film, I was disappointed after seeing this. The script is poorly written although the idea of the story is excellent. The ending of this film is not logical enough. It's a kind of pity to have such a good story and quite good beginning but the ending ruined the whole thing.However, I still recommend it since Chow sing chi's performance was really great! He can draw the viewers' attention to him even though there were not many jokes or funny lines, it's a good proof of his amazing acting skill.Finally, what I want to comment is the new actors, it's obvious that they tried their best to act, but in my own opinion, their performances are too exaggerate, it would be much better if they can act in a natural way.
sychu It's a breakthrough for Stephen Chow; finally a Stephen's movie with substance. Unexpectedly creative, it's like another version of Forrest Gump; you never know what you gonna get. You want action? You want romance? You want comedy? You want drama? The movie has it all.
