★★★
more reaction than review more asian than american more indie than industry ... the goal of being one in a million movie review sites on the web should not be to regurgitate press releases about popular films, but to strive to become useful by presenting biased, impassioned, outlandish opinions so that like minds can find you
All About Women (Neui yan fau pui) [2008] • China
The main thread in this visual shenanigan belongs to the always lovely Zhou Xun. She's a frigid geeky scientist who invents a love potion, essentially extracting pheromones and then wearing them like a smoker's patch. The patches get tossed around among the three ladies and/or the objects of their desire. Kwai Lunmei is great as a punk rocker who eventually meets her imaginary boyfriend, and a pleasant surprise is Kitty Zhang Yuqi (from CJ7) who plays a high powered sexuality exuding executive who wants to market the patches. This is a goofy film full of sight gags, not to be taken seriously. An average film, flawed, but worth wasting time on just to watch three lovely ladies having fun.
