I didn't enjoy the film as much as Derek Chiu's last effort, The Log. If it wasn't for Eric Tsang Chi Wai's award deserving performance (as opposite to Comrade Almost the Love Story) the film probably wouldn't have been as enjoyable. Lau Ching Wan's character is almost unreal, and the story was somewhat forced. I found myself really relating to Eric Tsang's character. The film is worth a look.
