Review
by Kozo: |
Another
film titled Whatever Will Be, Will Be, except this
one has no popstars and no big-eared kids. This strictly
average Category 3 drama is a pitch-black Feel 100%
movie. The plot loosely follows a bunch of twenty-something
Hongkies as they flirt, take drugs, and enter into all sorts
of incorrect sexual encounters. Michael Tse and Teresa Mak
are the biggest names here, and it's no surprise that they're
usually supporting actors. Lines are recited, scenes are
staged, and the audience sleeps. Occasionally something
interesting happens, but it's usually an illustration of
a Gen-X hot-button topic. And besides, the film lacks likable
characters and any semblance of interest. If the film has
a point, it's this: life as a nineties HK youth really kinda
bites. If that's a message you need imparted, then this
is your movie. Otherwise, there's nothing to write home
about here. A soggy dishrag might be more interesting. (Kozo
1997)
