| Like a turd in the punch bowl of a decent party, this film is always a bummer to see in any collection. I HATED this movie. It looked so promising! Cecilia Cheung is all up in it, looking all cute with her bad acting self. See, this "period" film is about her falling in love with someone or other who has a sword or something, there's roller blades involved, stupid computer references, pimples, and general "wacky" Hong Kong zaniness. It should really be titled "The House Of Flying Flatulence," because it stunk! I generously gave this movie 1 star because, when I was getting home from having rented it, I was able to rest my Venti Non-fat Cran-Orange Whip half decaf Frappuccino latte on the DVD case as I fished for my keys. (Frappuccino is a registered trademark of the Starbucks Corporation and in no way reflects that anyone who works there or has ever been there likes this lame movie. Oh, that's not a real coffee flavor either, so there.) |
