    Just another generic romantic comedy...
    I stumbled upon the 2013 Hong Kong comedy "Mr. and Mrs. Player" (aka "Lan gun fu dou lan gun qi") late in 2019, and being a huge fan of the Hong Kong cinema, of course I managed to find the time to sit down and watch it.

    Initially I was looking forward to watching because Chapman To was in it, as he is quite an underrated actor. And he does perform well in this movie, although it wasn't his best performance. I wasn't familiar with Chrissie Chau, but she actually performed quite well as well.

    The storyline is fairly generic and archetypical for a romantic comedy. A player (Chapman To) falls for another player (Chrissie Chau), but she will only have him if he can go 100 days without sex. And of course a bunch of awkward and funny moments occur during his ordeal.

    The movie turned out to be watchable enough for what it was, but it was fairly generic, and it didn't really break the archetypical boundaries of what you'd see in other romantic comedies. And that was a shame, because it limited the movie to a mediocre routine.

    "Mr. and Mrs. Player" is a movie that you will watch once, and probably never again, as its storyline just doesn't have enough contents to it, plus the fact that it was actually just your average-run-of-the-mill romantic comedy.

    My rating of the movie has to land on a very mediocre five out of ten stars.
