With so many good reviews i had to go see what was the deal!!

With a triad characters involved, i expected a little action which did not occur. But that does not matter.

The movie is character driven, focusing mainly on Francis Ng. It just goes to show some people never learn there lesson. I guess people who are irresponsible exist and thats what makes this movie good. These are realistic characters with problems. Sandra Ng played her role well while Simon Yam almost was more like a cameo than a supporting role. Look out for Eric Kot too who seems to be getting away from his annoying usual persona and taking more serious roles which he is suited too

Sounded like i liked this movie? Well it did tell a good story but i felt the many scenes where the characters do minimal things like eating, i had to fast forward. Sure it was used to create atmosphere and shows a sign of normalility, but i had no patience for it. While you can relate to the characters i didn't seem to care too much about them either.

It's a above average drama which may lead you sad at the end but it had little effect on me (i am not cold hearted by the way!!) Still one of the better movies of 2000

6.25/10
