Dumplings: Three... Extremes 《餃子》 (2004), Miriam Yeung, Bai Ling, Tony Leung Ka Fai, Miki Yeung Options

[ahwoonjai]

Did anyone see this new movie yet? Since one of the main character spoek mandarin, I didn't understand the movie fully. But I think the subject of the movie (about eating human fetus) is very very disgusting!!

eating human fetus???

I'd like to know what this movie is about too! That is just sick!

[87Jai]

uhhhhhh.. >< thats pretty disgusting.. but i still wanna c it.. because miriam usually acts in comedy movies.. and this is suppose to be horror so i wanna see what shes like

[wai]

yea this film is definately a different type from the ones that miriam yeung normally do.

i heard that this film is very disturbing, and scary!!!!

but does miriam really get naked for this film, someone told me or was it a body double???

i really want to know what is featured in this film?

wow...miriam getting naked! i think don't think so unless her character in life changed considerably.
anyway, this movie should be interesting..miriam is in it right! haha

[aaaaa]

lol this is Miriams first REAL good serious role, it should be really good, and I also heard that she gets some... "HOT" action in this film. This movie's genre is horror AND comedy, I don't know how that will turn out

This movie is directed by Miike Takishi.. the father of those crazy japanese movies (Ichi the Killer, Audition) and Fruit Chan... and is an HK/KOREA/JAP release.. a very unique combination, it should be a very surprising, exciting film, but I've heard many people tell me, it's a very boring movie, not scary at all, and won't be surprised if you've watched the first 2.

[FeEWaL]

ohhh Miriam i like her she is god and very cute ...but is this movie god??is there any pic?

[silva_drag]

is this movie released yet? what is it about eating dumplings? is it a horror movie in any way? because i though miriam yeung only acts in comedies?

[ahwoonjai]

Miriam doesnt go naked in the movie, but in the poster for this movie, you can see Miriam naked(you dont see anything)....but I heard that's not her.

She doesn't have a "crazy" scene with Tony. She makes out with Tony on a hospital bed. Since i rarely see Miriam kisssing anyone on screen, this would consider a crazy scene for her and for us to see.

[Dave Goodmen]

Yup it is directed by Fruit Chan, so this going to be a artful kind of movie, let hope those 2 star can really shrine.

It Tony Leung Ka Fai, and not the Tony Leung CW btw

[Wilme]

I just got this too, but haven't watched it yet. Is it any good?

[h0p3]

i wanna watch dis movie because ma friend was sayin its so go0d..

[shyqt]

oh good lord! this movie is soo sick, the ppl in there eats premature babies!

it's a weird ( freaky) concept but i really wonder how the movie will turn out since not many chinese scary movies impress me besides KOMA and The eye..in which case the eye wasn't that scary either.

[Jewel]

the poster already looks freaky to me!! but i'm a miriam fan, so i will watch it no matter how scary it is!!

[way2quik]

KOMA was good.

I like Fruit Chan -- "Made in Hong Kong" was really good, so really looking forward to this. I take it it's like a sequel to the earlier "Three", that had Leon Lai in one of the segments?

[husbandcake815]

i didnt like KOMA. i didnt know what they were tryin to say at the end but i really wana see this movie with Miriam. Loks interesting and i wana see Bai Ling. hehe.

[silva_drag]

hi is this movie any good as i know it just came out on vcd is it a scary horror film or a normal comedy that miriam yeung stars in with?

[matchboxs2k]

i want to watch this really bad, tried to download it but the torrent is too old

[gobby]

I have watched this show, say about a lady - Mrs Lee (Mariam) who was once a famous actress married to a rich man (Tony Leung). After marriage, age catches up with this lady and her husband starts having affairs outside.

She knows that its due to her aging look and tries to improve her look. Mrs Lee got to know that there is a lady (Mei Yi) selling dumpling makes of Human Fetus (aborted babies) and by eating these "dumplings", it will return her youthful look. She got hooked onto eating these dumpling.

Mei Yi tells Mrs Lee that eating unborn baby of 5months old will improved her look faster but it is very difficult to find. Mariam paid for a large sum of $ and got the baby and it proves to be effective and her husband once again make loves with her..... However, her whole body starts to stink and red rashes appear few days later as the baby she ate was a sinful baby (A 15yr old girl pregnant by her father).....

She called Mei Yi and Mr Lee happened to evedropped and wants to eat the dumplings to make himself younger too.....so Mr Lee went to see MeiYi and soon have sex with Mei Yi...only to discover that Mei Yi is anold lady (64yrs old) and yet looks in her 30s. Mei Yi decided to stop selling dumpling to Mrs Lee as she wanted Mr Lee to herself......

Mrs Lee got abit crazy and started hunting for unborn babies herself......by asking the women that are pregnant by her husband to abort their babies and paying them....

lolz! look like hk is running out of ideas for movies...

i watched this dumplings part of three and felt the story concept was quite unique. the logic behind the if ya eat a fetus how it'll keep you younger is quite supported by all the theories of people eating halfformed chicken eggs and eating human meat said by the bai ling in the movie.

a bad point was the movie wasn't scary. you wont jump out of your seat or scream. but you may cringe at the abortion and eating of the dumplings part.

The poster look freaky but can Miriam really act in a serious movie. Can't wait to see it.

[Taramisu]

to say the least this is a shi$#@ movie. with random sex scenes. and baby eating psychos

After seeing CD1 of 2 on this movie, I pretty much did not watch the rest. Women getting their babies aborted for whatever reasons and then they eat them? Man, not a movie for me to watch! Now I understand why those dumplings have a red tint color in them! Yuck!

For those that is very sensitive and emotional, I would not recommend you to watch it!

First III movie for miriam yeung, really want to watch. I think the dumpling must be very disgusting.

[lychee_bobo]

.. yeah its . rele sick .. but i found it very interesting .. its says eatin dead human fetus will make them younger

[Joy2004]

I haven't seen the movie yet, I hope to get the movie soon. I don't really like Tony Leung, but since Miriam is in it, I have to get it.

woww see all those posts , so the movie is quite scaryy uh uhh i ve downloaded it too i don't dare to watch it

[madcowny]

This is really not a good movie. The basic concept is eating foetuses to stay younger. Whilst there could have been various angles on this to explore, the film relies too much on shock value. Apart from that, there is really not much of a story line. It is not even remotely scary. Seeing Miriam going down on Tony (well, you don't actually see it) is quite a departure from her usual roles though.

What is quite sickening is when you realise that this is based on real life in China.

I don't think this movie is scary at all!!! It's just the eating fetus parts that makes this movie freaky!!! I hoped they had some scenes of the spirits of the babies or something else to make it a bit scarier.....

[Mighty_Lord]

is dis the movie tat they originated the Dumpling three from..because that about eating fetus in a dumpling by using it as ingredient n den make so called it "Rejuvenate" your youth or somefink...pretty disgusting

[Asiangirl]

I know some friends who saw this, it's not worth your money, unless you like this kinda weird stuff, then it's for you. I am hoping this does not hurt Miriam's career.

[aznbaybii]

OMG....i wanna watch da movie but im way to chicken to watch it alone....since all mah fwendz r skared to watch it too...>_<

It was a pretty good movie.. but, I was kinda expecting it to be scary... but it's just gross.
