Ziyi Zhang, So Ji-seob, and Bingbing Fan in Sophie's Revenge (2009)
Sophie is a talented cartoonist who seems to have it all – a successful career, great friends, and the perfect, handsome, fiancé, Jeff, a surgeon who her mother adores. So when Jeff is stolen away by Anna, a beautiful actress, Sophie wants revenge. The first step in her plan, “Sympathy and Understanding,” fails, as does the second step, “Nostalgia.” Sophie’s friends invite her out to a party to cheer her up, but she runs into Jeff and Anna. She also runs into Gordon, a photographer, who apparently has been recently dumped by Anna. She quickly elicits his help in her revenge campaign. With Gordon, Sophie continues to implement the other steps of her plan. But “Reinvention” fails. So does “Entrapment.” Gordon reluctantly agrees to help Sophie with “Arousing Jealousy,” where they both behave like lovers in front of Jeff and Anna. Finally, something in her plan begins to work: Jeff seems to be jealous. A thrilled Sophie is convinced that the next step, “Search and Rescue,” will be her final winning move. But Gordon refuses to help, and confesses that he has fallen in love with Sophie, who, sooner than expected, is confronted by a repentant Jeff who wants her back! Who should she choose for true love and happiness?.

    • Quotes

      Sophie: [translated lines] When I was young, my mother used to say that a woman in love loses her sense and a woman who is dumped loses her mind. I didn't understand that until two winters ago. My mother also said men must choose the right career and women marry the right guy. In other words, women's goal is to find Mr. Right, so to be successful you have to find that special guy.

    I normally won't bother to put a review, but this movie is really really awful

    I was tricked to see a true "romance" in this movie, however there is not except deception, crazy women and stupid ideas. So this Sophie, an innocent girl? Revenge is good? I don't understand how dare they promote their rubbish and please don't pay to see this movie, unless you are an idiot as them.

    what? minimum 10 lines?

    OK if I have to say some, I will say the actress Zhang is almost awful and I don't understand why she is still working in this industry. Fan is definitely a better role however still a crazy woman's story I don't know why there is a movie about it.
