Prince Charming















Andy Lau, and arguably the best Miss Hong Kong ever, Michelle Reis stars in this typical Hong Kong comedy. Although it is not superb in any sense of the word, this is a very entertaining movie end and all.

The movie is about Andy Lau, who plays as a rude-nice fellow who comes across Michelle Reis in her search for her mother who abandoned her when she was a child. Don't let this emotional storyline fool you; there is nothing to sob over in this movie. Prince Charming is complete comedy and Andy and the cast play it so well! Andy is so rude and mean to the point that you just can't help but like the guy. And when characters needed to be serious, they are serious, so there isn't much for me to complain about; however there's also not much for me to rave about. Nick Cheung's character is also very funny, but that's the entire good thing I can say about him.
All in all, this is a fun little comedy and if you want a good laugh that last for an hour and a half, this is your ticket.
