Synopsis

Shawn Yue and Miriam Yeung reprise their popular roles as Jimmy and Cherie in this third installment of the romantic comedy Love in a Puff.

Back together since Love in the Buff, Jimmy and Cherie strive to stay together happily ever after. But the shocking news of Cherie’s philandering father marrying a girl younger than herself does not make things any easier for Cherie…

Review

Honestly, I do like Miriam Yeung acting although I am not her fan. She always to be a cocky and kind of funny. If you are a fan of Shawn Yue and Miriam Yeung, you must watch this show. If you are a dating couple, you must also watch the movie. If you are already a married couple, then you will know the ups and down of a married couple living together.

In the movie, both Shawn and Miriam are a couple living together. Not married. But they enjoy the lives as a married couple. A lot of humour in the beginning of the movies. Audience just float along with the movie. Enjoy the little things that the couple do together. But guy as usual are big boys who still love his toys while the lady are much more serious in their relationship. 

The movie get a bit serious later as the idea of having a baby came into Shawn mind. And the let's get married seems like an unromantic way which Miriam felt that it is missing something sincere thinking that Shawn wanted a baby as a sort of toy for his liking. 

In the end, watch how Shawn struggle to win Miriam over. Watch out for the end, there is an explosion of interesting and creative side show. Do miss this movie especially dating and married couple. I think after watching this movie, I believe you will have some thoughts over it. 

My rating is 4/5. Now showing in cinema since 4 May 2017.

WILD CITY 迷城 Movie Review

The much awaited movie from writer-director Ringo LAM sets his sights once again on Hong Kong’s seedy underbelly. In the spirit of City on Fire and Full Alert, Lam’s latest Canto-noir finds unsuspecting bystanders caught in a tangled web of and greed and betrayal, their growing anxieties punctuated with sudden bursts of violence.

Synopsis

When former cop-turned-bar owner T-man Kwok (Louis KOO) befriends a drunken woman at closing hours (TONG Liya), they soon find themselves targeted both by her former lover—a high-powered Hong Kong attorney—and the thugs (CHANG Hsiao-Chuan) he employs. Once Kwok’s underachieving half-brother (Shawn YUE) and a suitcase full of tainted cash enter the picture, the chase turns deadly, with the brothers’ tense family history coming to the surface as Kwok finds himself torn between the triads and his former police colleagues.

TRAILER

REVIEW

The story centred around Louis Koo ( T-Man ). His love for his step brother, step mother affect his career as a cop. He resigned and became a bar owner and got himself involved with a drunken lady customer and involved T-Man's brother into the world of bribery, betrayal, police, law, car chase,  hired triads from both Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Thanks to the bar lady customer’s lawyer boyfriend who hire them to track down the bar lady customer.

As money was involved, a series of car chase get the movie into high gear. The story got more complicated but enjoyable. There is a contrasting difference between both Hong Kong and Taiwan triad gang. Taiwanese gang does not fully value money but more important was the family brotherhood of  the gang members. In the case of Hong Kong triad they are more practical as they only see money as their motivational drive.

It was a fast action packed movie. You probably won’t have time to go to the toilet. There were violence, fights which were part of the triad way of life. The director added a scene where the weighing balancer carried by Lady Justice, was shot down. Was it a message to say that there was not justice in this world or something more positive? Watch the show, and you will probably have your own interpretation.

It was an enjoyable show for me.  Seeing Louis Koo movies for the second time in a month does convince me that he was a versatile actor. The previous movie Paris Holiday, Louis Koo was a fun and loving person while in this movie, Wild City, it was wild and violence city.

The movie will be showing on the 20 Aug 2015.

Rating

I shall rate it at 3.5/5.
