Perhaps an amazing love!
|
"Perhaps Love" is a thoroughly modern musical, with the story fractured between past and present and fact and fiction, stories within stories running into each other and creating a dazzling kaleidoscope of love won, love lost, and love regained. Peter Chan deserves great credit for pulling off this cinematic astonishment. At the heart of this film is a love triangle among Takeshi Kaneshiro, Zhou Xun, and Jacky Cheung, with Kaneshiro and Zhou playing actors in a musical and Cheung the musical's director, each of whom delivers a memorable performance. In the movie, someone says of Kaneshiro that the camera loves his face and that certainly is proved true here; he commands the screen. The movie is filled with memorable songs and, as you would expect, Cheung's big, big voice is perfect for his powerful numbers. And the movie ends with a big impact. This is the kind of film that is a joy to watch again and again. I recommend "Perhaps Love" very, very highly for a general audience. |

Excellent
| Kudos to the film maker. How can they cast all these great people together. Korea's Jijin Hee, Japan Kashinero, HK's Jacky Cheung and the lead star is great. I did not realized that ji jin hee can also sing. kashinero....whoooaaa you are so handsome in this film. Nice musical drama..worth every penny. |

Favourite Movie Of 2006
| Wow! I only just recently purchased and viewed this movie, and I have to say it was one of the best movies I have ever seen! Great acting (Takeshi Kaneshiro and Zhou Xun are both terrific to look at), great songs, incredible sets, awe-inspiring editing, and a story that doesn't baby-feed you every little detail add up to a movie I have to watch over and over again just to enjoy the feeling the film gives me. Don't let the fact that it's labeled a "Musical" turn you off...while there is some singing and a little dancing, it completely fits with what the movie is about and doesn't feel tacked-on or embarassing. 'Perhaps Love' is a triumphant emotional rollercoaster that doesn't over-play its hand...that is to say, it can make you cry without having anyone on-screen crying. Having virtually no faults for what it sets out to do, it's essential viewing. 10/10. |

Hong Kong-ized Phasing
|
The story, the plot, should have been excellent. The effects and the colors were excellent. However, everything has been in vain, especially the musical scenes, just because they have cut everything too short. Too short to appreciate an instance, too short to appreciate the transitions between the scene. This is what I call "Hong Kong-ized Phasing"... I feel that they have compromised longevity of essential scenes because the filmmaker is worried that Hong Kong people will find it "boring". The typical Hong Kong audience is not yet ready for long-lasting, reflective, and contemplative longer scenes. Plus, Takeshi Kaneshiro's acting is quite strange. Very strange. |

Peter Chan - Nice Try!
| Comments I'd seen about this movie were quite extreme. Some people loved it, some people hated it. So, I had a good think before buying the DVD. And it turns out to be quite OKAY. The filmatography and the settings and the dancings were great. And the actors have done the best they could too. You can really tell Peter Chan's ambitious from the way the movie's drawn together. The only let down is the linking of scene to scene is sometimes awkward and makes the movie hard to follow sometimes. Other than that, I think is a great job. |

not what I exspected it to be
not what I exspected it to be
| Man this flim was nothing to what I excepted it to be... it was confusing becuss I didn't know if what he was thinking was part of the act/play or if it was his real memory from the past... by meeting up with the girl... I will have to admit that the costume and the choreography was really nice.. got to give a shout out to Faran Khan she did a really good job... she is the best in choreography... the storyline was sorta boring to me... it just didn't do it for me at all... sorry didn't like the movie that much at all. |

Please Give Them The Award Uncle Oscar
Please Give Them The Award Uncle Oscar
| This is a first for 40 odd years. Not a major musical has been produced in Hong Kong since Huangmei opera has made it to the big screen in the 1960's under the Shaw Brothers umbella. It's about time every Chinese should buy or rent this DVD. It's every Chinese person's pride. Pride that we can produce a musical as worthy, and commercially, plus critically successful as "Chicago" or "Moulin Rouge". Please, Uncle Oscar, give them the Academy Awards statuette. I believe they (Peter, Jacky, Zhou Xun, Takeshi, Ji Jin Hee) truly deserve it. Please give your 100% support to this magnificent film of the ages in Hong Kong and Chinese history. |
