HK Neo Reviews Says:

Neo rarely praise someone a director as witty and smart, and as humble as Neo has become, Pang has outwitted him and gave him an engaging and dark movie for Neo to finally review. If only Pang can make more movies in one year, then HK cinema will be saved, well at least it is better than last year now. Pang is an outstanding talent, while as writer he has put a few foot wrong, but since directing, Pang is pitch perfect and continues to surprise Neo. While Neo was surprise by black comedy in previous movies, Pang surprise Neo with Gillian's performance and geez, I was so surprised that it got me off guard. (Neo 2004)

I rate it 9/10
