Featured review
It is a great fun comedy and sure can make you laugh loudly, perhaps for those who understand Cantanese only, as the punchline are quite local.
First, the film has a strong story line which is about the career of Kam, a 45 years-old prostitute in Hong Kong. The background of most scenes are Hong Kong in 70s and 80s. The acting, dress up, envirnoment make the movie full of taste of 70s-80s, which is very successful. You will not boring throughout the whole movie.
Second, the cast is great. A lot of great stars such as Erci Tsang, Andy Lau, Tony Leung and Eason Chan are act as guest appearance in this film, which make the film more attractive. The acting of Sandra Ng is also great, perhaps because she may find this role's personality quite similar to her.....Anyway, her great acting make her nominated for the Best Actress In Leading Role of Hong Kong Film Awards this year. (nominated as Best Picture as well)
Third, the film can let you understand how a prostitute turn up to down during 90s, same as the economic condition. It make you to commiserate the experience of Kam, as well as the condition of Hong Kong.
Highly recommended.
8/10
