watched the movie yesterday (chinese version) and found it quite okay..
(some spoilers included below) this movie definitely loses out to the love undercover series. basically this story is about miriam yeung's character xiao min who's a beer gal and never ever gets drunk (thus the title: qian bei bu zui) who meets daniel wu's character michael, a french chef who likes to travel around the world, when he's drunk. his french restaurant is closing down and somehow he ends up staying in her house and them becoming co-partners. they fall in love (some very nice romance scenes for LU lovers) but the problems with their character come in. daniel wants to travel and doesnt want to settle down while miriam hopes he will. the bad person in this movie is this businesswoman (actress called hu2 jing4) who wants daniel to join her restaurant as a chef but actually she s just interested in his looks. daniel and miriam quarrel over this and kinda break up but he realises the businesswoman's real side and in a quite nice but predictable ending, asks miriam to be with him again. the movie is lacking in plot because a lot of scenes dont make sense and somehow even though the movie is about 1 hour and 40 plus minutes long, the movie doesnt let the main characters develop a personality or background. it is hard for the audience to really empathise with any of the characters. also one would think with the title being qian bei bu zui, more emphasis would be given to the alcohol issue but a lot of the story isnt really focused. granted the actors were good in this movie, miriam appearing more serious in her serious scenes and daniel not bad as a drunk. alex fong zhong shun steals the show as a hilariously boorish but kindhearted triad leader along with the director of my lucky star acting as a fat gay owner of a steamboat restaurant who s also miriam's good friend. lots of eye candy in this movie with scenes of daniel half naked (top up of course |

(8/21/2005) Miriam Yeung Chin Wa's film DRINK DRANK DRUNK has been
released for two days and already it has taken in HK$1.8 million. The male lead Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho) has not been doing as well. On the day of the premiere he was hospitalized for a high fever and could not attend. Chin Wa who has been linked in rumors with Daniel has already sent her well wishes through her record company and learned that he was fine. To keep from disturbing him from getting rest she has not planned to visit. Chin Wa and Daniel's rumors have been endless after the film's release. She said that as long as the box office is good, the sacrifice would have a value. She believed that thinking that way would make her feel better. credits to http://www.geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/2038/050818.txt |

(8/19/2005) DRINK DRANK DRUNK (CHIN BUI BUT JUI) two nights ago held a
beer girl event. The cast Miriam Yeung Chin Wa, Renee Dai Mung Mung, Ella Koon Yun N and Toby Leung Ching Kei judged. Chin Wa even personally demonstrated beer pouring, but the lead actor Daniel Wu (Ng Yin Cho) notified the event only 45 minutes before its start that he could not attend due to illness. Chin Wa expressed that the new film would be released today and she has been nervous. She has seen the new film on the night of the premiere and felt that the director Derek Yee Tung Sing was very talented. Some of the talks after drinking have happened to her too, like this year after drinking on her birthday she broke down. In the film she had bed scenes with Ng Yin Cho but finally many were cut and they only had a peck. Chin Wa said that she did not know why, perhaps the director felt this way would be smoother. Did she feel sorry? Chin Wa pointed out that as an actress she should not mind such matter. However the theme song music video would have that scene. As for Ng Yin Cho's absence, Chin Wa did not find out until she arrived and did not know that actually Daniel was seriously ill. She would not disturb him now and would send a text message in a few days as a friend and co-star. Koon Yun Na after watching the premiere felt that her acting was still very immature and thus would need to work harder. Luckily this was a comedy so a little more exaggerated acting was fine. In the film her costume was very sexy. After padding she became top heavy. she thought it was fun because normally she could not be. However she stressed that she would not have breast enlargement because her figure came form her parents. credits to http://geocities.com/Tokyo/Towers/2038/050818.txt |

Under its influence
By Elizabeth Ng Drink Drank Drunk Rating(out of 5): * * * ½ (Golden Screen Cinemas) Starring: Miriam Yeung, Daniel Wu, Alex Fong, Chin Kar Lok, Terence Yin and Hu Jing We don’t need to attend business school to know that one of the most important factors for a successful venture is location. Even if you have the best products in town, your business will probably meet a very fast and natural demise if it isn’t in a strategic location. Apparently, nobody told Michael (Wu) that. The young man is a hardworking chef/restaurateur who is puzzled when his fine dining restaurant, which serves top quality French cuisine, does not do well. The reason? It’s located right smack in the middle of Chinatown! TAKING COVER...'Wait a minute, why hide when we're not in that undercover cop flick anymore?' The charming but rather clueless (in the business-savvy sense) bloke, who is on the verge of closing the joint, decides to drown his sorrows and gets a lucky break when he meets “beer girl” Siu Min (Yeung). Tired of promoting and hawking beer, Siu Min is intent on setting up her own eatery. So they cut a deal, becoming business partners and housemates – because Michael is dead broke – and eventually, romance blossoms. One of the good things about this romantic comedy is that the humour isn’t forced or overdone. Amusing stuff comes from the leads as well as the supporting cast. Yeung and Wu have played onscreen lovers before and they are both as charming as they were in the Love Undercover movies. In this film, Yeung is sweet and funny while Wu deftly handles the role of an earnest young man who’s just trying to earn his keep. SEEING GREEN...The girls meet their prettier and sexier rivals. The central characters have very different perspectives on life. Siu Min, like most girls hitting 30, is ready and willing to settle down. But after many years of cleaning up after inebriated patrons, she is weary of hearing empty promises of marriage and love from drunk men. On the other hand, Michael is the typical footloose and fancy-free bohemian who goes anywhere his finances take him. Being in a relationship is OK as long as it doesn’t tie him down. So it is a rather curious move when Michael takes up a job offer that will seemingly provide him with a stable career. And here we are, thinking that he isn’t into something so permanent. Although this inconsistency of the character is not explained, it does wonders for the romance, which is probably what the filmmakers wanted. Nonetheless, Michael could have been fleshed out more, at least to show the reason behind his change of mind. Speaking of inconsistencies, Siu Min is lauded as a woman who is immune to the effects of alcohol but in one sequence, we see her succumbing to it in a rather comical way. One moment she’s sober and the next, she’s lolling about and revealing her secrets. Flaws aside, Drink Drank Drunk is still a welcome change – a film that doesn’t rely on histrionics or over-the-top slapstick for kicks and instead brings across simple everyday occurrences in an amusing and real way. YAM SENG!...Happy hour, happy people. The supporting cast also gives the film a boost, especially Alex Fong’s Ninth Brother, a tai ko who is sweet on Siu Min. Fong puts in a hilarious turn as a tough gangster leader who has a soft spot for the girl. Helmer Derek Yee, who bagged this year’s HK Film Award for Best Director and Best Screenplay (One Night in Mongkok), gives us a romantic comedy that goes down pretty smoothly. Even though the screenplay, which Yee co-wrote, could have been better Drink Drank Drunk is one of the more enjoyable romantic comedies from Hong Kong. It doesn’t try to be too clever or pretentious but offers a simple and straightforward love story. And so, there’s still hope for the genre, which let’s face it, has taken the most abuse from the HK film industry. Now, that’s something we can all drink to. Bottoms up!

Drink-Drank-Drunk
Year: 2005 Director: Derek Yee Tung-Sing Writer: Derek Yee Tung-Sing, Jessica Fong Ching Cast: Miriam Yeung Chin-Wah, Daniel Wu, Alex Fong Chung-Sun, Vincent Kok Tak-Chiu, Hu Jing, Ella Koon Yun-Na, Renee Dai Mung-Mung, Toby Leung Ching-Kei, Chin Kar-Lok, Tony Ho Wah-Chiu, Terence Yin, Andrew Lin Hoi, Hayama Go, Ken Wong Hap-Hei, Henry Fong Ping, Asuka Higuchi, Paul Fonoroff The Skinny: Decent romantic comedy that sags noticeably when it shouldn't. Leads Miriam Yeung and Daniel Wu are likable enough, and the movie itself is an undemanding 100 minutes. However, as a Derek Yee film, Drink-Drank-Drunk is a disappointment. Overall, this is passable fluff. Review by Kozo: Director Derek Yee slums a bit for Drink-Drank-Drunk, a romantic comedy built to make money. Ultra-bankable box-office princess Miriam Yeung is joined by Love Undercover costar Daniel Wu in a commercial film that's perhaps below Yee's talents. Yee excels at natural situations and the stuff that makes up romantic comedies is usually unnatural and even forced. The formula itself isn't truly at fault, and indeed Drink-Drank-Drunk is passable commercial stuff. However, Yee's storytelling instincts are a bit lost on the calculated, manufactured genre that is romantic comedy. The stars are nice to look at, and those looking for an easily-digestible popstar fluff-fest may be charmed. But considering that Derek Yee directed it, disappointment is possible. Miriam Yeung is Fung Siu-Man, a spunky Hong Kong girl who works as a Budweiser beer girl. For the uninitiated, a beer girl hangs out at local restaurants and hawks her sponsor's beer onto the local patrons. Despite the sordid-sounding job, Siu-Man is actually quite wholesome and is the standard Miriam Yeung type, i.e. mouthy and independent, and in need of a proper boyfriend. Triad tough guy Brother Nine (Alex Fong Chung-Sun) digs her, but she won't be his. Besides the fact that she doesn't like blustery triad dudes, Siu-Man can drink Brother Nine and every other guy under the table. Siu-Man's talent: total alcohol immunity, meaning nobody can get her drunk. Those expecting the movie to hinge on Siu-Man's inability to get drunk had best look elsewhere. Gratefully, this isn't a completely high-concept film. Siu-Man meets the inebriated Michel (Daniel Wu), a French-Chinese chef who runs a local French eatery. However, business is bad; it seems Michel's dishes are beyond the casual tastes of local Hong Kong residents, so it's closing time. Michel is so broke that he doesn't even have a place to live. Luckily, Siu-Man's apartment is inordinately large for a beer girl, plus she'd like to open her own cafe. She makes Michel a deal: run his restaurant at night, and she'll run a cafe by day, plus he'll get room and board at her flat. For added fun, they can pretend to be platonic roommates after hours. Big surprise: that doesn't happen, meaning audiences will swoon at the sight of Daniel Wu and Miriam Yeung getting it on pretty damn quick. But with the onset of a relationship comes all sorts of new troubles, i.e. commitment, marriage, differing goals, and the requisite romantic rivals. Will Siu-Man and Michel be able to make their cohabitation last? Drink-Drank-Drunk earns immediate points for being far more real than the usual Miriam Yeung laffer. Yeung is her usual sparkling self, but in comparison to Love Undercover, the world she inhabits is a more realistic one. There's the occasional situation comedy, and some characters are cartoony to the point of distraction. Still, the trials of Siu-Man and Michel touch upon rather familiar, grounded issues, and even the film's more commercial hooks (i.e., Siu-Man can't get drunk) are handled without overdone comedy. The film's major issues are commitment and simple communication, and not overly manufactured circumstance. Some might term this more grounded approach to romantic comedy as boring, but it's also quite refreshing. Even diehard Miriam Yeung fans could use a break from Fong Lai-Kuen. That is, until it starts to go on too long. It's nice to see Daniel Wu and Miriam Yeung's characters reacting in realistic ways, and true to form, Derek Yee spends time extolling the working class values of Siu-Man. However, at a certain point, some characters stop acting like people and begin acting more like plot devices. Vincent Kok plays Stock Character #14, i.e. the gay best friend who shows up to provide exposition into the main character's life. Likewise, Brother Nine gets a little too sensitive for someone of his roguish nature and becomes a wellspring of relationship advice. When gorgeous (and evil) restaurateur Zhao Jie (Hu Jing) shows up as a romantic rival, everything grinds to a hackneyed halt. The film does end in a predictably audience-pleasing fashion, and most audiences should go home happy. Still, any charm or surprise the film possessed left a lot sooner. But that's speaking from a position of enlarged expectations. If you ignore the fact that Derek Yee (the guy who made C'est La Vie, Mon Cheri, One Nite in Mongkok, Lost in Time, and even 2 Young) directed this film, then you'll probably be easily satisfied. Drink-Drank-Drunk possesses a homey local charm, and Miriam Yeung and Daniel Wu are both exceptionally likable. Alex Fong is surprisingly effective overacting comic support, and again, the film has a largely real feel. Overall, this is likable and undemanding stuff that should please most undemanding audiences. Those looking for a Derek Yee film might go home disappointed, but that's those pesky enlarged expectations talking again. If you expect too much out of Drink-Drank-Drunk, you could burst a vein from your resulting anger. The alternative is simply to expect very little and enjoy the cinematic equivalent of a lukewarm bath. Sure it's not the greatest experience you'll have, but it's better than nothing. Given the state of all things Hong Kong Cinema, maybe the standard expectations should be reevaluated. (Kozo 2005) credits to http://www.lovehkfilm.com/reviews_2/drink_drank_drunk.htm |

QUOTE (HappyDude @ Aug 30 2005 8 47 PM) i like the pairing of daniel wu and mariam yeung. but i'm kinda suspicious about how the storyline will be like. the storyline is pretty weak and they mainly depend on the characters to make the film enjoyable......miriam and daniel were great...just wished that they had more time to expand on their relationship then silly stuff.....i dont even noe wen he even started to like her...... why cant hk make great romantic comedies with good storylines......???? i think they should work on the storyline first then characters.....it seems in this movie that this is reversed... all wellz...i watched it in the movies twice!!! hehehhe.....just because im a fan of the two of them..... |

CINEMA: Let’s drink to love
Sharon Wong Sept 1: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRINK DRANK DRUNK Directed by Derek Yee Starring Miriam Yeung, Daniel Wu, Alex Fong, Vincent Kuk THIS romantic comedy tells of how drinking and being drunk can bring two seemingly completely opposite individuals together. It revolves around Mun (Miriam Yeung) who makes a living selling beer but harbours a dream of opening her own restaurant. But life’s difficult and together with her best buddies San and Mong, she has to face stiff competition from other beer girls who are younger and more voluptuous. She is also disillusioned by men in general as the ones she meets only talk about love and marriage when drunk and then conveniently forget everything once they are sober. However, this is a movie and one expects that there will be a day when Prince Charming sweeps her off her feet. In Mun’s case, he comes in the form of a drunk whom she takes home like a lost puppy. The fact that the guy, Michel (Daniel Wu), happens to be gorgeous and who owns a French restaurant is not the point — at least not to Mun initially. However, the guy’s down on his luck. His insistence on being 100 per cent authentic in his French cuisine is apparently driving away customers who do not appreciate the fine art of dining. She helps him out and the two eventually become partners — in business as well as emotions — much to the delight of her friends. However, when his expertise is recognised by a big restaurant entrepreneur, who also happens to be a very foxy lady, trouble brews. The insecure Mun falls out with Michel, who’s now with the in-crowd, and returns to her life as a beer girl. Will Michel turn out to be just like other men who only say those three little words when under the influence of alcohol or will he be different? No prizes for guessing the ending as it is quite predictable. However, it’s the journey that counts and the twist at the end is pretty interesting. Yeung is well cast in the role of Mun with her loud laughter, rough and tumble ways and no-nonsense manner. She complements the more refined Wu well ... much like the attraction of opposites. The latter is, of course, dashingly handsome and even when drunk, is eye candy at its best. Watch out for the scene when Mun’s friends get together and try to get her drunk because she had difficulty expressing her feelings to Michel. They forget that she never gets drunk and it is Michel who ends up puking his guts out and falling all over the place. A mention should also be given to the good support provided by Vincent Kuk as the kind-hearted, gay restaurant owner and Alex Fong as the local gangster who has a soft spot for Mun. On the whole, Drink Drank Drunk is a light-hearted movie that makes you laugh a little, marvel a little at what love is all about and then totally forget about it once you are out of the cinema.

MOVIES: Beery-eyed romance
Lim Chang Moh September 1: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DRINK DRANK DRUNK (romantic comedy) GSC and TGV circuits Time: 102 minutes Rating: * * ½ DRINK, Drank Drunk is a simple love story about an attractive beer-promoter and a handsome chef. Siu Man (Miriam Yeung) is good at her job because she can out-drink most of her customers. However, she has lost her faith in men because they either treat her like a sex object or profess their love only when they are drunk. Things change when she shelters a drunken Michel (Daniel Wu) whose French restaurant business is going bust. Before leaving her flat that morning, Michel cooks her a delicious breakfast — and piques her interest. So when Siu Man learns that Michel is selling his business and going away, she offers to be his partner and reopen the restaurant. And yes, they fall in love... and like in all love stories, they also fall into a problem. This comes in the form of a sex siren who lures Michel away to run her chain of high-class eateries. Directed by Derek Yee, this romantic comedy is nothing like Ang Lee’s Eat Drink, Man Woman. Most of its drinking scenes show the despicable side of bar-room habits where the Chinese think they are macho because they can guzzle lots of alcohol. Still, Miriam Yeung and Daniel Wu hit it out well enough to get our attention, if not our sympathy, while Alex Fung is awkward in the comic relief role as Siu Man’s protector and admirer. credits to http://www.mmail.com |

The Electric New Paper :
Drink Drank Drunk Drink - Miriam Yeung drinks up just for this movie Drank - Daniel Wu's drinking days are in the past Drunk - Director Derek Yee's still a big drinker HE'S been there, done that and seen it all. By Wendy Teo Mum doesn't know drunkard slashed Daniel HE'S been there, done that and seen it all. So Daniel Wu hardly touches alcohol these days. In his latest romantic comedy Drink Drank Drunk, Daniel plays chef Michael, who can't hold his liquor. Miriam Yeung is beer maid Min, who's in love with him. When he was younger, Daniel used to think nothing of downing shots in quick succession. Daniel's drinking record stands at 17 cocktails consecutively, which was a dare by a friend who had lined up 21 alcoholic drinks for him in honour of his 21st birthday. But he has since put an end to booze fests for the sake of his health. Speaking to reporters at the office of his management company in Hong Kong, Daniel said: 'I've seen what alcohol can do to a person, and I don't think it's worth it.' He has witnessed drunken violence from his days as a part-time bouncer during his college years in the US, and even bears a faint scar on his forehead - a memento from a drunk patron Even Daniel's wushu background had not been able to protect him from the attack. In his stupor, a violent customer had swung a bottle onto Daniel's head, leaving a bloody gash which required six stitches. He recalled: 'That guy was drunk and tried to molest a female customer. We received a complaint and I had to ask the guy to leave. I was leading him out and just as I turned around to check that he was behind me, I felt a hard crack on the head.' In return, Daniel broke the guy's nose. 'I could see that the bottle was still unbroken after the attack, and I knew that if I didn't defend myself, he would have continued hitting me until the glass broke. So my instinct was to punch him.' Daniel said that he has never told his parents about this incident, and that his mother would probably throw a fit after reading this article. While Daniel doesn't turn violent after having one too many - he turns quiet and falls asleep - that encounter has turned him off booze. And it's just as well that he doesn't have to do much drinking for Drink Drank Drunk. For while director Derek Yee encouraged Miriam to have a tipple to help her feel for her champion quaffer character, he stopped Daniel from doing the same. The affable director told reporters: ''Daniel turns so red after a couple of drinks, he doesn't look good for the camera.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Derek snuck out of school to drink DEREK, 48, is a bottomless guzzler himself. He claims he can down a bottle of whiskey and tequila each, and still walk in a straight line. He started drinking young. Derek said that his first drinking session was in high school when he and his friends snuck out of school to go to a pub. 'It was our first time drinking. All my friends were felled after a couple of gins, But I went on to have seven. It's all in my genes, I think. My mother was a good drinker too, I remember.' His inspiration for the story came from his observation that liquor is a truth serum of sorts. 'After drinking, men tend to reveal their emotions more. Sometimes, it can be a bad thing, because you might say things that you will usually keep to yourself. 'I've seen friendships turn sour because of insensitive remarks made when one party was drunk.' But Derek refused to elaborate on whether he was speaking from personal experience. 'Being half-drunk is even worse than getting dead drunk. Because when you are dead drunk, you are essentially harmless.' He doesn't recommend hitting the bottle when one is depressed, for 'it will only make you sadder'. Since he's such a booze lover, did Derek unwind with his actors over a drink after each day's hard work? 'We were working so hard each day. We were filming during summer and the scorching heat made everything so unbearable. At the end of the day, you are so beat you just want to go home and sleep. 'I'm old already,' he ended with a hearty laugh. Drink Drank Drunk opens in cinemas on 25 Aug with sneak previews this weekend. credits to http://newpaper.asia1.com.sg |

This movie wouldn't have anything to do with Miriam's new song about drinking right? LOL, it was kinda hilarious when they're drunk...but I think this movie kinda had no point beside the fact that it tells you if you drink too much you look stupid and do stupid things.

I had to leave Hong Kong only two days before this movie came out!!! I was sooOOO upset! So what is this movie about? I heard Daniel and his gf (Lisa S.) got into an argument because she thinks Daniel and Miriam have something going on together. Personally, I think he and Miriam are just good friends. What's the plot to the movie anyway.

I love it how the pairing of Miriam and Daniel equals an almost box office hit.
Thousands of fans will just flock to the cinema and watch a movie they know nothing about just because Miriam and Daniel are paired together in it! - Myself included. |

I am great fan of Daniel Wu and Miriam Yeung and I was really lucky to win the tickets to watch the movie before it was released. I really love the 2 of them. I find them very compatiable. However, when I went to watch this movie, I was very dissapointed. I expect it to be as nice and funny as Love Undercover but it didn't met my expectations when I came out of the movie theater. Maybe my expectations was too high for this movie or I expect to see even more things in this movie because I have been waiting for this movie to be released for a long time so it didn't turned out very funny as many people said.

Looks like a really funny movie, looking forward to watch that one.. I always liked Miriam's comedic performances. And Daniel's not too bad. It's cool to see them together again in a movie.

Surely I will see this movie. After seeing this couple (Miriam Yeung and Daniel Wu) in 'Love Undercover' 1 and 2, I found that they made a cute one. I already liked Daniel Wu when I watched 'Purple Storm'. I wasn't a fan of Miriam Yeung until this movie. But, this movie made me changed my mind.

this is one of the movies where daniel is really hot in...his haircut makes him look so cute...this movie was ok...it was funny because of alex fong and the three hot beer girls...daniel and miriam's relationship in this movie isnt funny but its cute...the only complain i have for this film is that miriam and daniel are a pair again!! need fresh couples...and after all these years, i can still hear daniel's accent...and his cantonese still need improvements...and i never understood y daniel kept saying i love you when he was drunk...he wasnt saying to miriam because he said i love you right when he met her...does anyone know who he's talking about? his old gf?

I'm an avid Miriam and Daniel fan. So needless to say, I was greatly anticipating this movie! I haven't figured out whether I like the film or not.. I mean.. Miriam and Daniel!! WHat's not to like? But then again, there are just so many things lacking in the plot! The story between Miriam and Daniel jsut went so so quickly.. I was confused! I mean, there are so many unanswered questions:
When did Daniel start liking her? Their relationship just went so quickly! I mean one minute they're both drunk talking about their ex-es and the next they're kissing. One minute, he is mourning over his ex getting married and the next he proposes to Miriam? For me, I don't think the relationship between them was developed enough. Perhaps this was the director's point? To show a love that wasn't only in movies and fairytales. To show that the love shared between a couple isn't just the undying, unconditional love only found in fiction. All things aside, I must say, Daniel and Miriam definitely make a really good couple! I love everything about them. I love the idea of them as a couple. I even secretly wish taht the rumours about them are true! I am disappointed about the director cutting out intimate scenes between them.. but I guess maybe he is right - maybe it really wouldn't suit the plot.. but I really do hope he includes it in the DVDs! I have too much love for Daniel and Miriam to actually dislike the film. |

Just watched the vcd version of this movie. I love the chemistry between Mariam and Daniel, even though the movie wasn't that great. I was waiting for that scene with them two kissing on the sofa or something, but just found out they cut that scene out. |

i wanted to see the intimate scene btwn Miriam & Daniel too! just becuz the magazines made it into such a big deal.. and the director even said that the two acted very natural in that scene (the director told them to just act however they want and did not give them any instructions on how to film that scene). But the two definitely made a cute couple in the movie!!

^ Yea his kiss between that girl was so wild lol.
I finally got to watch this movie I was longing for. The storyline was okay, not that great. I like Love Undercover more. But it was an enjoyable funny movie. It has alot of funny parts where I couldnt stop laughing. Alex Fong is so hilarious in it, I love that dog part. |

aww.. i love this movie.. Yea its kinda the "typical" hk movie. buh i really enjoyed it. I was expecting more drinking etc. though, I loved daniels charector. He was such a cutie. I loved his attempt with french.. haha everytime i watch the begining scene i laugh. Terence had a small cameo. I wanted more terence as well. They shouldve extended his part more. They shouldnt have deleted the bed scene with daniel and miriam. They shouldve kept it. my fave scene was the restraunt scene.. wen one of the guys was like "jun yao.. wo mun bu xui ngaap ngaap." freakin love that scene. I can rewatch that soo many times and not get tired of it. :-P
