Yuk lui tim ding (2001)
Good Comedy With Moderate Acting
Overall, this movie is a piece of good comedy. The scenes and dialogues of the characters are well-organized to create a sense of hilarity to the audiences. Unlike many Hong Kong's comedies nowadays, this movie makes more sense and gives the audience a better understanding of what the movie is about. Personally, this flick captured my attention.
However, the main concern about a movie is the acting quality of the casts. And in this case, this movie has lost out many points. The casts in this movie are good but their acting skills had just been wasted of. They never really show the best as they never put in any feelings or emotions while acting. Their expressions look very stiff and artificial. A good viewer would definitely see through it.
Miriam Yeung who plays the character Kuen, is trying to deceive people around her by pretending to be pregnant in this movie. She did so just to prevent from being fired by his boss(Edison Chen) after she did a mistake in her office. Edison Chen on the other hand, plays an emotional character who wanted to pursue his own ambition but has to follow his father's wish to handle his father's advertising company in which he had absolutely no interest in it. These two main casts should've put in more expressions into their role to make their role look more authentic. Thet have wasted their talent in the entire movie.
But still, this movie is good for those people who just seek to laugh a little and relax themselves. If your demands are not more than that, then go and watch this flick. It's for you!
A Cinderella Story (2004)
Unexpectedly Emotional and Hilarious!
Well, I thought that this movie is just some teen romance flick that will not emphasize so much on feeling. Fortunately, it turns out unexpectedly. The feeling in this movie is so appealing and sensible. It is not just merely the fantasy story of Cinderella that one would have expect it to be. At least I can feel the emotions and the romance. For a romance movie, I don't expect it to be as great as Titanic, but this movie is just fine. Besides, this movie also brings forth many messages that would be useful to youth nowadays and I consider it to be very educational. The most important message in this movie I personally think is 'nothing is impossible if you just believe' and 'the fear of being rejected' as these messages are vital in the life as a teenager nowadays. Overall, this movie fulfill most of the important aspects that one movie should have. It has a good plot and well-acted by the casts. The casts managed to express their character well and this is quite remarkable as most of them are young actors like Hilary Duff and Chad Michael Murray. This movie also has an appropriate soundtrack to go with it. One more thing, this movie is surely hilarious and I think most of the people will like it. With all the mentioned features, one will remain seated until the entire movie ends. Quite a good movie!!!
