Love, fun, and comedy

Warning: Spoilers
Alex (George Lam) is a producer, and he has a girlfriend (Rosamund Kuan)but isn't quite working out. Vivian (Vivian Chow) is a college student living with her mother (Do Do Chen). She meets Alex and Alex asks if she can record a song. In the mean time Alex breaks up with his girlfriend, and hooks up with Vivian's mother. It's a not so typical day in the life in Hong Kong for all of them, but somehow everything works out. This is one of the best light hearted love romance + comedy movie done expertly by three great Hong Kong talents (four if you include Kuan). Vivian Chow makes her movie debut, as she's poised to be one of the premier Hong Kong's singer actress for the next 10 years.

8/10
A typical but well-written HK romance comedy.
OllieSuave-0071 April 2017
This is a romantic comedy from Hong Kong, starring George Lam as Alex whose live-in girlfriend Peggy (Rosamund Kwan) decides she wants to live by herself. So, to occupy his time, he starts teaching a high school music class, where trouble maker student Mo Wai-man (Vivian Chow) gives him a hard time. As a result, he crosses path with her overprotective mom Ju Lai-ngor (Carol 'Do Do' Cheng). So, just as he starts to fall for her, Peggy decides she wants Alex back.

It's a typical romantic comedy, but it's mixed in with some light-hearted comedy, not-too-sappy drama and a rather interesting plot. There's a lot of focus on happiness and wants and love. Good acting by the cast of characters and the script is well-written.

Grade B
