Loletta Lee goes Category
III in this sleazy romp about a young girl and her discoveries
about love, sex and how it imparts on the subtle, empowering
exhortations of her soul. Blah, blah, blah. In actuality,
this uninspired romantic comedy is just lightweight
fluff about Jane (Loletta Lee), who skips her overseas
trip to school and hikes around Hong Kong. Along the
way, she plays voyeur, is nearly assaulted, fools a
couple of ugly older men (Shing Fui-On and Tommy Wong,
who thankfully don't get involved in any Category III
action) and meets a really nice guy (Poon Jan-Wai).
And sleeps with him.
However, it's not all wine
and roses. The nice guy proceeds to think she's some
sort of a slut, which isn't too far from the truth.
However, that's if you subscribe to rigid societal definitions
of "right" and "wrong." And, in
the wonderful world of Crazy Love, it's okay
to sleep around if you're having fun. Who cares about
diseases? And besides, the girl is Loletta Lee, so the
nice guy is obviously crazy for giving her
a hard time. A word of advice: count your blessings,
pal. And advice for all those potential viewers: this
movie is far from good. But Loletta Lee appears naked,
so any protest will likely be in vain. Well-regarded
director-producer Clifton Ko Chi-Sum helped make this
movie. Bet he's proud of himself. (Kozo 1996) |
