As the 1960s movie classic "Days of Tomorrow" is being remade, daughter (Hilary Tsui) of deceased leading man Shing (Andy Lau) begins to question why this remake decision is tearing up old wounds in the survivors from the era...

An attractive production and an even prettier cast (Andy Lau is particularly striking in this one) doesn't get as much rewards on a script- and storytelling level. The romance amidst the moviemaking climate jerks back and forth before settling and it's not until the latter parts of the film that all elements combined goes any moving places. It's not really earned when it does and the filmmakers utilize some more heavy handed melodrama and montages to channel emotions but attractions such as Andy Lau and Carrie Ng makes one lost in the scenery. The end twist however is neatly handled by director Lau Yue-Ming. Also with Yip San, Henry Fong and Lau Kong.
