This movie has a great plot, a great story, great directing and production, and an outstanding soundtrack. HOWEVER, the acting and the cast as a whole was terrible. Leon Lai & Shu Qi are terrible. On their own they might not be so bad most of the time, but in this movie everything about them just seems to unrealistic.
It's a real shame, because this movie could have been a classic of it's time, but personally, I think the main chacters should have been played by someone like Anita Yuen and Lau Ching Wan, they would have made a much better job of it. If the Shu Qi & Leon Lai were not in it, I would have given this at least a 4 out of 5 I think.
Rating (out of 5): 2.5
(This rating is based on the year & genre, so don't think it's based as a comparison on new releases etc.)
