A Moment of Romance III (1996)
Reviewed by: hktopten on 1999-12-21
Painful to watch. During World War II, an inexperienced Air Force pilot Wai (Andy Lau) is struck down. Luckily he meets simple village girl Siu Wor (Ng Sin Lin). The two fall for each other, but Siu Wor has been married to the village chief's son since childhood, and Wai is notified by the base requesting him to leave the next day. The story made no sense, and Johnny To apparently suffers the same problem Derek Yee has with Full Throttle. Despite Andy and especially Jacqueline tried hard to save the film, the relationship just isn't as intense or realistic as AMOR I & II. Andy was a flower vase. In fact, the whole thing looks like a watch commercial Chow Yun Fat did in Hong Kong. Anyway, the best actor goes to the Big Yellow Cow (TM). Recommended only to die hard Andy and Jacqueline Fans. It's really pretty to look at though. Maybe it's just me, but Andy looks too old for the role. In fact, Andy doesn't match with Ng Sin Lin. Anita Mui is too old, so the perfect fit at this point would be Rosamund Kwan Chi Lam...
