Elizabeth Kerr The Hollywood Reporter This is a strong, assured debut and just the jolt the Hong Kong industry needs right now. Jun 22, 2006 Full Review Jeffrey M. Anderson Combustible Celluloid Part of the genius of Wu's approach is that it's impossible to separate just what was made up for the movie and what might have been a real by-product of their escapades.

Audience Member Very good Daniel Wu! This is a pretty good mockumentary that examines the Hong Kong music industry. It's funny but also really sad at the same time when you realize that a lot of the stuff in the mockumentary is actually taking place in the music industry. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/15/23 Full Review Audience Member A good try. Which part is real? and which part is fake? think it yrself:) Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member First of all let me declare that Daniel Wu is one handsome dude! When I went asked for this film at the Asian video library the guy thought I was nuts. 'This is not nice film. I wait and wait for film to come but it did not come!' he said. Daniel Wu is a clever chap too. To choose such a genre for a directorial debut (it is, right?) takes lots of confidence. I would like to believe it was deliberately shot like that. It has some very funny moments and the entire subtext is about how we sell our souls. Seriously recommended. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member 愈睇愈假 簡直爛尾 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellent mockumentary about the weird behaviour of HK music industry. Look for the not-so-subtle fashion queen designer & his gay assistant... This is worth good laughs! Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member 4 stars. between real and fake. a good attempt in hk movie industry. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
