YesAsia Editorial Description

Visionary director Tsui Hark brings the classic tale of "The Butterfly Lovers" to the big screen in The Lovers, a dazzling and cinematically pleasing romantic drama set in Ancient China. Chuk Ying Toi (Charlie Yeung) is sent to college to study, but there's just one problem: she's a girl, and only boys are allowed an education! Undeterred, Ying Toi is forced to dress up like a boy, and meets the charming, handsome Leung Shan Pak (Nicky Wu), who becomes her rival and then close friend. But love begins to blossom, even though Ying Toi is supposed to be a boy! Can Ying Toi and Shan Pak overcome initial misunderstandings, class differences, and even destiny to realize their true love?

Told in bold, dramatic strokes, The Lovers is a powerfully emotional and wildly entertaining film filled with comedy, romance, and finally heartbreaking melodrama. As the young lovers, Charlie Yeung and Nicky Wu bring wide-eyed charm and photogenic innocence, and Tsui Hark gives their story unbelievable energy and life. With gorgeous cinematography, fabulous costumes, and simply beautiful music, The Lovers is a sumptuous, lovingly-made adaptation of a classic romantic tale.

Hilarious and Romantic. Very good. Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Overall, the film is excellent. I love this movie. Saw it nearly nine years ago and didn't know what the movie was called (was young) until a friend told me that this was one of her favorite romance movie. Bought it and watched it nine years later and still brings back the same feelings from that nine years ago. The music is very good. Charlie Yeung looks very cute.

I highly recommend adding this to your DVD (quality is not too bad for a film that came out over a decade ago; still good and doesn't bother me at all; trust me, I'm a film student) collection.

I would give this movie 12 stars Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
This is teh best movie I've ever seen made in HK, the production, the actors chemistry, the climax at the end, all and all. Although I must also add, this DVD isnt any good, the permanent subtle with no secondary audio tracks, also it isnt digitally remastered, which bounds the audience to be Cantonese speaking people. But it deserves a lot more. If people would love crazily about movie like "Titanic", I have no doubt they would at least interested on this movie. I hope the remastered version is on production, i would be teh first to buy it.

Super!!! Customer Review Rated Bad 10 - 10 out of 10
Although this movie was made about a decade ago it's still, I believe one of the all time best movies! I thought Mr. Hark, the director put just the right amount of romance, action, and comedy into this masterpiece! Not to metion he picked the right people to act in this movie too aka Nicky Wu & Charlie Yueng. Everyone did super! I reccomand this movie to each and everyone of u and I also recommand u guys have some tissues nearby while watching this movie because it'll make u cry like you've never cry before! Almost forget to metion but The Lovers is now officially my favorite movie!
