04/05/2013 hell yeah!! this is the chinese version of the phantom of the opera with some changes i suppose See more 07/15/2012 This "Phontom of the Opera"-inspired film from Hong Kong resonates with beautifully wrenching romantic longing. See more 12/28/2010 melodramatic with a capital M, but what a trip down memory lane. See more 10/15/2008 Leslie's voice is awesome See more 07/20/2008 Chinese version of "The Phantom of the Opera"... a failure though... See more 05/03/2008 Didn't pass my ten minute rule that a film has to engage me in the first 10 minutes. The acting was lame, the script was lame, the music was hyperdramatic. The only good part was that Chien-lien Wu was in it, and she's kind of pretty. See more Read all reviews
