This movie didn't work.. Not enough Nancy Kwan..
I thought she was suppose to be the star of this movie.. halfway though the movie they almost stop focusing on her as a major character.. and she just becomes an annoying girlfriend to Sammy..
They showed too much of Mei Li crying about Ta.. and it got annoying.. then somehow because he felt so sorry for her.. he fell in love with her.. Why?
I think it would have been a better story if Ta and Linda would have more time to develop a normal care free relationship. He had to have known she was a fast girl.. and he probably liked it.. The problem was when she showed up to his party he was already being judge by his father.. then at the club.. when he saw she was a dancer.. he was so embarrassed that his family saw her that.. he had no choice but to distance himself for her..
Bottom line.. if his family didn't pick out a girl for him.. he would have spent more time with Linda.. and the movie would have been more of a romantic comedy..
Sure she was a bit of a gold digger.. but maybe he wouldn't of cared..
