Ye man mi ji (2006)
8/10
Good film for HK enthusiasts
3 July 2006
Despite the disparaging comments on IMDb, after seeing an Ad for this movie (a.k.a. My Kung Fu Sweetheart) on an ALL Nippon flight, I watched it anyway. This movie is very amusing and fun. First off, so as not to cloud my entire review, I would like to mention that I think Cecilia Cheung is gorgeous.

The plot is easy to follow and really brings the idea of Kung fu into the present time nicely, instead of the normal, "wow you're from Hong Kong, you must be a kung fu master". Though the fight scenes and other technical elements were not as polished as some of the other movies I've seen, I'd still say this movie ranks closely with House of Fury for entertainment value.

All in all, if you can find a copy I would recommend it. I enjoyed it, and actually wished that it wasn't so short.
