It's a short and delightful slice of Asian cinema telling a tale about a very modern situation for the drama element, adds a few bloody moments and zombies for the horror, brings us the familiar laughs you expect from the comedy of Hong Kong, and impresses with the visuals as a shining example of how far Hong Kong comedy has come!
You get social commentary that reminds you of Stephen Chow's Mermaid (corporate greed vs. a small group of powerless citizens) and slapstick comedy that occasionally tries too hard but still has some of the funniest moments toward the end.
If you're familiar with Sandra's work at all with Stephen Chow, give this one a try! or even if you simply like movies with a few twists and genre-blending, also check it out. As this was my first introduction to Sandra, I can tell she was doing what she does best as an actress but you may not laugh out loud as much as you would with other Hong Kong classics.
Still, give it a shot and whether it's the story, direction, effects, comedy, or silly scares...you'll definitely find something to love about it!
