Audience Member Any Lau and Sammi Cheng's latest outing with Johnnie To is not as effective as the others. (Needing You, Love on a Diet) It starts out as a breezy comic caper story, but throws in a depressing last minute plot line which puts a downer on everything and changes the tones completely. It's not really recommended, check out the others mentioned in this review.

Sarà anche un Milkyway minore, ma ha un suo perchè. Come commedia funziona benino, è piacevole ed i personaggi si fanno apprezzare, ma il finale dolce-amaro fa compiere il salto di qualità. A mio avviso merita di essere visto, anche perchè ha avuto la fortuna di essere stato distribuito in Italia... Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Love this movie! Andy Lau & Sami Cheng have great chemistry. This movie reminds me of a cross between The Thomas Crown Affair and After the Sunset...same excitement and overall feeling. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member What can I say, I loved this movie. You will have fun. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Audience Member Third installment in Johnnie To's immensely successful, but artistically often questioned, Andy Lau/Sammi Cheng venture. Although routinely squeezed into a narrow romcom mould, each film is steeped in a separate mood. Where Needing You was adorably cute, Love On A Diet had a coarse and almost imbecile tone. In Yesterday Once More To opts for cool sophistication, finding an excellent opportunity to display his love for classy-looking Hollywood movies, the superstar powered romances of the fifties, a fancy later developed more fully by To in Sparrow. As a pair, Lau and Cheng possesses just the right amount of glamour for this project to take off, emitting rays of old-school charm and complaisance. The deliberately convoluted screenplay feels a bit overwritten, but the puzzle-like nature of the plot also proves very effective on an emotional level, with an, in genre terms, unpredictable and unorthodox ending. A bitterly sweet sensation. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Read all reviews
