  the movie is actually one of my favorite, I liked it so much! I don't know why but I think it has a really awesome story and a really good acting and I liked the characters, I don't know why people are giving it bad reviews....there is nothing bad about it, its good thing I didn't read any reviews because sometimes it might stop me from watching the movie and deciding by myself so I suggest that you have to watch the movie to judge by yourself.........all the actors are beautiful and talented and the concept was written in such beautiful way...............its about twins with opposite personality and values, and making choices that affects life and love and happiness.

• Sorry but a waste of time really.

  This story revolves around xiao hong (chi-ling) journey to happiness where she is troubled by the ultimate decision to choose the right guy. She has a twin sister(xioa ching) who is also in about the same situation. Chen Kun played a lonely wealthy boy. He is lonely because he understands that his friends are taking advantages of his wealth but it is just mind-boggling because it is ultra obvious that xiao hong was attracted solely to his wealth. My best guess is his other exploitative friends do not look as nice. Regret to find the movie a huge( infinitely huge) disappointment since i quite enjoy watching Chen Kun in his other earlier movies.Tony Yang is a little delight to lift my mood while i was struggling to watch until the end.It is funny and a nice surprise to see him taking this role which is quite different from his previous movies. Overall, i am not touched by the movie and in fact felt cheated. Wanted to give up watching after less than 30 minutes.I can't really say the plot is predictable (because i predict it can't be that simple) but it is certainly dull. No much chemistry between the chen kun and chi-ling. It is like watching commercial shots displaying a model bride and her groom for a bridal/wedding shop's advertisements. The supposed bride and groom could have just met prior to the advertisement shoot, just to be exact. My vote could have been a negative figure (less than 1) if not for the scale given is from 1-10. Regret to say that in hindsight, i rather spent the time playing with my cat. I hope there are other lucky people who truly enjoy this movie because i understand it takes a lot of efforts and resources to produce one movie no matter how simple the story is. Many thanks and i regret if my words should appear as unpleasant to anyone.
