Review:

This would have been a fantastic film if it was less vulgar.

It was meant to be a "sex comedy" but I feel it would have been a much better story without the sexual references, but in this age and time, that's what sells, a pity.

There's not much to be said about this film from over a decade ago. It was some really good acting on Cheung and Yuen's parts.

I would recommend the film if you are not offended by vulgarness as much as I am.
