            |  | Review by Kozo:
 |  Second in a rash of radio show-themed 
              films about three guys, their radio show, and their women. Michael 
              Chow, Edmond Leung, and Simon Lui are the three guys, and Pauline 
              Suen, Halina Tam, and Amanda Lee are their girls. The plot features 
              your standard hot-button issues with pop culture references and 
              sexual politics aplenty.  Sadly, the jokes suck, the actors 
              so-so, the plot predictable and the script uninteresting. More bluntly: this is a total zero 
                bomb. Even the charming level of HK cinema is lost 
                on this one since it feels more manufactured than a Big Mac from 
                McDonalds. Michael Chow is not a guarantee of quality, even in “crazy 
                cop” form. On the plus side, there are many unimportant cameos, 
                and both Halina Tam and Pauline Suen have winning screen presences. 
                Still, this movie is contrived as all hell, and every move feels 
                false. As Feel 100% goes, this one’s more like 10%. (Kozo 1996) |  |
