Mostly a good film and I can say I found it interesting to watch.
It is the story of a gay man in Hong Kong who enjoys being a male prostitute. He has a long term relationship that suffers because of his prostitution.
I find it hard to warm to any character who is a prostitute and has a relationship going at the same time. My problem I suppose.
This main character then ends up in rehab after his jealous boyfriend calls the police. So he is a prostitute that uses drugs...Probably the best part of the movie is the Christian rehab scenes very amusing.
As someone else noted there are a lot of skin scenes in this film. They kind of lose their impact after the second or third one but I have no problem with this at all. Both the main characters are very nice looking which helps.
I guess the main attraction of the film is its novelty you get to peer into Chinese (Hong Kong) gay life.
What bothers me most about most gay films is they are so negative. You get the message that being gay causes your mother to commit suicide by jumping from a building and then you become a drug addicted prostitute cheating on a decent partner. And for Gods sakes I wish they would get rid of the smoothering Mother as a cause of it.
Why can't they have movies where gay people are winners... A gay James Bond etc...I dream on.
