Summary: Average!!

All i am going to say is this was pretty average. I didn't get involved in this film, it felt like it was a soap opera.

6/10

The gay friend of a pregnant girl pretends to be the father of her baby. Fun, and sweet romantic comedy is made all the better by the excellent performances by Yuen and Leung. The courtroom scene is a dissapointment, but even the silliness of this scene can't erase the warm fuzzy feeling this film radiates on it's audience.

Anita Yuen in her almost stereotypical role as a cute, spunky woman who's been kicked around by fate; Tony Leung Kar Fai as her best friend, who happens to be gay. Well, "happens to be" is somewhat of a misstatement, since it's his being gay that essentially drives the plot: Anita becomes pregnant after an affair with a married man whom she doesn't know is married, of course, because she's "not that kind of girl," as we Anita-pedestal-placers all know. Tony, being a sweetie, marries her rather than see her have an abortion or be forced to live with the shame of single motherhood. Er. Well, anyway, despite the movie's rather insensitive interpretation of gayness--apparently, in Hong Kong people are gay only if they've been cheated on by a woman that they love, and not by choice--the movie is pretty...cute. Anita is pretty AND cute. :) Tony is a fairly likable and not TOO stereotypical gay man.

An all-around nice guy Ah Gai (Tony Leung) marries an unwed pregnant Ah Yee (Anita Yuen) to avoid abortion after her boyfriend dumped her. The story and their relationship remains entertaining, until the villain boyfriend suddenly returns and wants his daughter back, and just as Gai falls for Yee (did I mention he was gay?). Great song by Dior Cheng.

Summary: NULL

Minor romantic-comedy-drama stars Leung Ka Fai as a swishyclothes designer who marries cute Anita Yuen when she turns up pregnant. A year later, she's about to marry the unscrupulous lawyer who'd knocked her up and whom she doesn't really love -- just as Leung falls for her. Everything turns out happy in the cheesy courtroom finish. A few laffs. The photography makes the movie look like an Xmas tree.
