Reviewed by: ororama Date: 03/08/2015 Taiwanese pop star Jay Chou wrote, directed and stars in Secret, which begins as a less than exciting romantic drama set in a music school, but suddenly veers into fantasy. The resulting mix of genres works surprisingly well. Chou and lead actress Gwei Lun-Mei are likeable but don't develop much chemistry, and the piano playing is likely to be of interest only to Chou's fans.. However, the fantasy elements, although they seem derivative of ideas from other movies in the genre, are presented in a fresh manner. Secret is primarily for fans of Jay Chou, but those interested in romantic fantasy movies may find it worthwhile if they can make it through the somewhat tepid musical/romantic drama that begins the movie.
