Sex And The Beauties (DVD) (Hong Kong Version) DVD Region All

These Hong Kong women are enjoying the heyday of their beauty in the colorful metropolis that never sleeps. Selina (Carina Lau) is a psychologist who has encountered several set backs on her love path and so turns herself into a marriage phobic. The girlfriends that she usually hangs out with are all happily single flying around different circles of men. Kwan (Athena Chu) is a writer good at making sarcastic and acrid remarks. Ni (Yo Yo Mung) is a risk taker while Mark (Pinky Cheung) loves fighting for justice. These four beautiful young women, together with a sissy bar manager, form themselves a "bitch club". All of them seem to have it all: they have careers, they have great bodies and they have money to spend in whatever ways they want. Yet, there seems to be one missing ingredient in their perfect lives. Right! Boys! Still, they have their choices ranging from the memorable first love, a pretty college boy, a professional from mainland China to an unruly gangster leader. Take it or leave it!

Based on the HBO drama "Sex and the City", Wong Jing, one of the most productive directors in Hong Kong, has written, directed and produced his local version of the American TV hit. "Sex and the Beauties" tells the stories of six attractive single women. Similar to the U.S. chart-topping TV series, this made-in-Hong-Kong production depicts how the modern women living in this 21st century deal with their careers, families, friends and love lives at the same time. The storyline does not come as such a surprise. What serve to be the eye openers are the lines and the links among different stories. Of course, we never grow tired of gazing at beautiful people. Looking for a posh sex symbol? Carina Lau is always here to present her stunning elegance. Want a wild party animal? Cecilia Cheung is bold enough to say and do anything at will. Add to that the goddess of sexiness Athena Chu who is not afraid to talk about any tabooed subjects. And don't forget the unpredictable Yo Yo Mung who is determined to shake off her girl-next-door image. We have a buffet of mouth-watering ladies. The picture is not yet completed without the hunks. This time we have men of various styles. Coming along include Tony Leung Ka-fai, Andy Hui, Edison Chan and Kenny Bee Chung as well as a six-foot import from mainland China Lu Yi. "Sex and the Beauties" is pretty much about pretty boys and beautiful girls talking and having sex. It is high time we opened up and embraced such an erotic attempt at this modern time!
