It is definitely worth a watch for the presentation of the lives of stuntmen and the action scenes, but not for the rest of its narrative elements.

Rated: 6.5

Disjointed but well shot and acted (by Yeoh mostly)

I like Hung and Yeoh, but this drama is pretty lame. There aren't many fights and the few there are aren't very good.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Not much fighting in this film, but it got a story. I think one of the stunt almost killed Michelle Yeoh. However, the sub-plot of the boy and his "boyfriend" made me a bit uncomfortable.

A love letter the stuntmen and stuntwomen of HK cinema. Michelle Yeoh is Ah Kam, just a stand in. But when a bossy movie star demands a female to be her body double, Ah Kam gets the job. Its a simple tale about work, love, and family, and a nice little poignant look about filmmaking.
