Audience Member Biopics prevailed in the HK Cinema in the early 1990s. Unfortunately few of them was well made. Majority protagonists of these biopics were corrupted cops, triads members or someone from the lower social hierarchy. And this one, was about a prostitute! Loud, but lame at the same time. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member Men are monsters. Women are victims. But a woman pimping out other women is empowering. I guess that's the message this movie was trying to get across. I could be mistaken, as the subtitles were so full of errors figuring out what everyone was saying was a full time job. Overall, a pretty bad film. I can't believe it was shot in 1991. It looks much older (and not because it's set in the 60s and 70s). Skip it. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Ambitious but way too exploitationist for its own sake. Amy Yip is not solid enough to take the lead but she surely knows how to take all kind of abuse. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a bad Amy Yip drama.
