Frozen



Chemistry Incomplete
I've been a fan of Leon's music growing up and have become Janice Vidal's fan after her debut. I had some hope for this movie but it failed to come totally together for me. Amazing thing is, I had no expectation from Aarif and Janice Man and I was quite impressed with their performance and chemistry. For Leon and Janice Vidal, I feel they have treated this movie more like a side project and their acting was terrible making the movie unbelievable and fell apart for me.

They find Wing's father (Leon Lai) who's practically given up in life after Gigi's accident. Prior to the accident, Wing's father promised to take her to Leslie's final concert which never happens. To fulfill that promise, Wing's father (along with his band friends) puts on a final performance.

Two of the most memorable scenes was (1) when Leon dances to Michael Jackson's "Beat It" and (2) towards the end when Leon sing Leslie Cheung's song "Monica"

In this movie, the cast consist of quite a few members from Leon's music company, including Janice Man, Janice Vidal and Aarif Lee. Surprisingly Janice Vidal's role was more of a supporting role, while Leon and Janice Man were the main characters, yet the movie cover would...

Too silly
This story was a bit silly for me as I'd expected true sic-fi but got comedy in it's place. Also the story line and the costumes seemed too contrived.
