Summary: Couldn't follow it

It is sometimes a problem, watching a HK film without subtitles. This one is very talky and it's hard to follow the fine detail, although the broad brush is pretty clear.

Probably the humour was mainly in the dialogue. Even having the wonderful Chingmy and Anthony as the main couple couldn't hold my interest.

This is a fairly fun Chingmy film made prior to her becoming a sex goddess with Naked Killer a couple years later. In these days she played much more to cute than sexy. Here she is the wild daughter of Roy Chiao who wants her to settle down. Instead she tries to escape his oversight, bumps into Anthony Chan and persuades him that she is a damsel and distress and that he must help her. His life is soon turned upside down - but its all worth it.
