Love Is Love (1990)
Reviewed by: Inner Strength on 2002-03-27
Summary: Not bad
Love is Love at the time was very good, and even now watching it again did keep my interest going. Back then, the fine comedy duo Stephen Chow and Sandra Ng actually play serious parts about a couple in love who are from a small province outside of Hong Kong. They decide to move into the city as they have both had enough of her fathers constant bullying and problems he is always causing (played very well by Shing Fui On). Sui (Steven Chow) gets a job straight away and soon becomes very successful, whilst his wife Tei (Sandra Ng) stays at home getting depressed. This soon leads to trouble within the marriage, as the two seem to drift apart in their own worlds.

Although a good enough drama, there is some comedy for the fans of Stephen Chow, but some of the jokes don¡¦t really work. But both of their performances are great. One of the other reviewers didn¡¦t think Sandra Ng was the best choice for the part, well I have to disagree with that, because Sandra Ng & Stephen Chow always looked the best comedy couple on screen in opinion ƒº

Don¡¦t expect to see anything like a masterpeice though, and is not really for the Stephen Chow fans if they are expecting a lot of comedy.
