It was pretty good Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
I just recently saw this movie yesterday on one of those Internation Film Channels and I really enjoyed the storyline entirely. The cast was perfect in everyway.

The ONLY things I really didn't like was at how confusing it was when flashbacks occured during the movie, and how the subtitles kind of misleads you in the storyline. I also disliked how the movie flowed in three different ways instead of focusing straight down one path. And all of that adds up to complete misunderstandings.

I suggest that if you do get this movie, that you watch it over a couple of times to get the story right. Other than that, the movies great.

Movie for a Quite Afternoon Customer Review Rated Bad 8 - 8 out of 10
A story about mid-life crisis of Jacky Cheung and Anita Mui (who died in 2003 of cancer). What would it be like teaching Chinese poetry for 20 years, reciting Li Bei, Du Fu and Su Dong-Po's poems, but have never seen Yangtze River? There seems to be more excitement with his student Karena Lam than anything in Jacky's life. Definitely not a hollywood movie.
