Audience Member This movie left me very confused and frustrated. I am confused over the many jumps in the story line. Who are those people in the plot. The caracters in the movie are like pieces of paper figurs walking around. Is like watching a school play with adults. Frustrated because I just wasted 90 minutes of my life. This is the last movie Cecilia Chueng made before the Edison Chan internet scandal. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Messy film~ not that good...main character is so weird~ what else is there to say? Cecilia is beautiful as usual tho~ Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member The story is very weak and directing very poor - everyone just pretending to be emotional but the story is not touching at all.... Zhou Bichang seems okay because her role doesn't need much acting.... just acting like dummy is not hard!!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Zhang Guoli only want to get money from this stupid commercial for the fame of Cecilia Cheung, Hu Ge n' Zhou Bichang, trying to tell a affecting story with plentiful farfectched plot and ridiculous scenes. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member I absolutely adore this movie. It's Zhou Bichangs first movie, and she acts brilliantly. The store is loosely based on the scandle of 600 Chinese celebrity cellphone numbers being leaked onto the internet a few years back, and Bibi (Zhou Bichang's nickname) plays a young woman whose cell number is 1 digit away from a famous singers number. One day she starts getting strange calls... Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Read all reviews
