Lily Ho changes her looks in this movie like a chameleon.So I don't regret buying this on DVD. But when she is off-screen, I take 40 winks. Jimmy Lin Chong's singing is an acquired taste but at least he sings with passion.The fight scenes at the end of the movie are very dark on VCD and impossible to watch. So I had to upgrade to a DVD.
