Good story, Not enough for a whole film
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
View MoreIt’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
View Morewhat a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
View MoreThis is a film about three pretty young ladies from Hong Kong who work as sales agents who travel to a resort in Japan for the sole purpose of meeting and wooing millionaires. What follows is a typical HK comedy of the town, slapstick in double time, pratfalls and misunderstandings. The film is non essential viewing but its not all bad. When it slows down and the characters get to interact with each other there is a certain charm about it. It has some music in it and in general its okay. This territory of finding rich guys has, before and since, been well mined, but this is a watchable version of that premise. So, put it on, check your brains at the door and you'll be entertained just about enough to not wish to turn it off.
