Caught it on TV and was surprised to learn it came out last year. A movie starring Nicholas Tse yet never heard of it, now I know why. The main characters are beautiful to look at. The camera-work is amazing, our heroine's face and innocence glows like a pearl, and Nicholas Tse is very swoon some. Some light- hearted humorous moments. Otherwise it is full of clichés, and the movie suffers also from heavy handed approach in plot and pacing. The romance marries " rich guy saves helpless girl" and still their fate is twisted. I can hear he audience screaming in frustration as they leave the cinema. Watch only if you want to waste money and time.
