This is one of those movies that tai seng imports that I think mostly other chinese people see, as opposed to crossover stars like Jet Li aand Chow Yun Fat.  The video store guy was p**sed because he thought it was some Jackie Chan movie that had a similar title.  It's sort of like a fashion shoot  with a little bit of plot.  There are five or six main characters, they are all all fairly attractive young women, except one who is fat and weird, and they almost always have a drink in their hands.  Theirs a very skimpy action caper plot but it's mostly about them being at this nightclub and how cool they are.   A remix of "Axel F" from Beverly Hills Cop plays throughout the film.  yep
    Funny thing: one guy is in a changing room and someone pulls the curtain back, and laughs.  So he leaves then later comes back and stands in his underwear waiting for someone to pull the curtain and goes "How come no one peepers around?!"  This is subtitled in the classic impossible to read tai seng fashion naturally.
           The closing scene has them walking down the street sort of fashioning around with their beers and outfits.  My Mother came into the room and goes "is that all they do?" pretty much.  So I give it my  thumbs up!

See, proof that it doesn't take much to make an enjoyable movie! It just has to be interesting(in the good ol' enjoyable way)! I just might check it out.
