Simply Actors - 戲王之王



Simply Actors (戲王之王) is a 2007 film out of Hong Kong. It stars Charlene Choi and Jim Chim. It also has many many cameos. It's almost like a who's who of HK peeps from around the 2007 time frame. The movie also seems to feature the debut of Kathy Yuen.

The movie is about a cop that joins a arts school to learn acting so he can go undercover and infiltrate the triad. At the school, he learns about acting and life.

The movie ran way way too long. Way way long! I am emphasis "way way" for a reason. The movie should have been 80-90 minutes, but dragged to 120 minutes. I did fast forward because I was waiting for it to end. And it just kept going!

If it weren't for the few glimpse of Kathy Yuen, I would have stopped the movie.
