It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
I saw this about a month ago on one of my Showtime movie channels. I have about 10 of them so it's hard to keep track of. This is one of three Cinema Hong Kong specials that have been airing a few times a week -- the other two are easy to find here on IMDb and deal with kung fu and swordplay films. I've been into Hong Kong films for several years but this particular documentary opened me up to an era that I knew next to nothing about. Cheng Pei-pei meant a lot more to her industry than just playing a villain in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Now I need to check out Come Drink With Me. Check this special out if you see that it's on.
