Decent screenplay ruined by one of the worst actress in hk cinema today
16 July 2022
This movie had potential - adapted from Candace Chong's stage play which dares to highlight how the #metoo campaign can mean no chance for those wrongly accused to prove their innocence - Jacky Cheung manages to carry his role convincingly and Anthony Wong does a great job in a scene-stealing small role as his defense attorney albeit with less than 10 minutes of screen time... unfortunately the entire film sinks thanks to the talentless actress Karena Lam who surprisingly still gets roles in spite of being one of the worst actress in hk cinema next to Sandra Ng and Gigi Leung - watching this movie only makes me wonder whose boots or butt she continues to manage to lick in order to keep getting acting roles, when there are dozens of actual actresses who can do a decent job instead of turning a good script into a joke of a movie. The director is also the husband of the lead actress and sadly together they have made 2 quite awful films thanks to both the mishandling in direction and her terrible acting where she either overplays or is completely miscast.
