The undercover sent to spy on the dark society was bad in acting and his identity is exposed, resulting him being murdered. The deputy police officer (Ann Hui) sees the need of an undercover with good acting skills and thus sent her orders. Chan Man Lung (Chim Sui Man) who has consecutively won performance award in the annual dinner of police force is thus selected to take up the responsibility, and sent into the acting industry to brush up on acting skills.

Man Lung who loves acting hid the fact that he has had been in relationship with his seven years of girlfriend, Judy (Michelle Ye). He entered a private institution to learn acting with his undercover identity. Man Lung was secretly pleased as he thought he could finally demonstrate his talented acting. However, he was instead immediately picked to demonstrate the example of ‘terrible acting’, causing his confidence to diminish. He has an average outlook and a not too outstanding body, thus standing no chance of competition at all with the good looking young generations.

Dan Dan (Charlene Choi) who is also a new student like Man Lung has the measurement of 34D, 24, 24, and thus became the attention of all male students. Some students even immediately went to buy her books and asked for her autograph.

Man Lung’s superior summoned for him to take part in an operation with the dark society. As the opposition party is exceptionally alert, thus need excellent acting skills. During the operation, there were dangers, and Man Lung’s identity was exposed but was fortunately saved by his classmates. Man Lung began to lose every bit of confidence with his acting skills and thought of quitting acting school when he met the ‘superb actor’ (Anthony Wong) who hid as the cleaner in the school…

I don¡¯t know what to say, maybe comedy has never been my thing, but then again, I enjoy western comedies lots, so I just don¡¯t know. I don¡¯t quite get HK movies nowadays (esp the ones trying to be funny but is not), it¡¯s losing its quality so much, it¡¯s hard to believe such script was filmed into a movie.

First of all, if Michelle was not in this movie, I would have shut the movie 5 minutes after it played. Also, it was the most suffering one hour ++ for me to endure the silly movie, towards the last 20 minutes was a little ¡®exciting¡¯ when the ¡®actors¡¯ were chasing after the 2 person trying to exchange the bag bla bla¡­ Sorry this movie was so boring I don¡¯t bother to understand what the heck was going on. I no longer seem to have my patience I used to ¡®understand¡¯ UHD.

I basically only understand that Judy and Man Lung broke up because of his unrealistic stardom dream. The rest is basically about them going to drama college.

The scene I love most must be Michelle tearing off her masks from Man Lung¡¯s face. I like Chapman¡¯s scenes as well. The part they were playing mahjong. Basically that¡¯s all I like of the whole movie. Again, I don¡¯t quite link what happens from one scene to another, maybe it¡¯s my own inattentiveness, buthen again there was no appeal at all IMO¡­

The ending of this movie makes me feel its trying to copycat My Name is Fame. But well I think My Name is Fame is so much better. It probly influenced my judgment too the fact that I¡¯m not exactly fond of Charlene Choi.

I finally got to borrow this from the library, but wow, I waited weeks for this movie and it just...uh...sucked. Can't even think of another word. I thought the beginning was stupid, same with the middle, but the ending was okay. The exchanging of bags part was pretty lame but watching them trying to change quickly was amusing.

My favorite scene would be the part when Michelle was pulling off like 10 of the facial masks from Man Lung's face. Other scene I liked would be the part when Eric was teaching them how to 'dance' and the singing instructor teaching them how to...umm...I actually didn't know what they were doing, but it seemed like he was trying to tell them to squat, relax, and make constipated noises. Following these would be all the other scenes with Michelle in it, just because she's in it. ;D

My least favorite scenes were the ones with Charlene because of her annoying fake accent. I don't understand why they couldn't use someone with an actual accent from Mainland. I also hate Raymond's hairdo in this. I saw it and I was like, WTF?!

Overall, I would have never even thought of borrowing this movie if Michelle wasn't in it. I'm not even a fan of comedy, more of an action/police movie person.
