Call for Love - 愛情呼叫轉移



Call for Love (愛情呼叫轉移) is a 2007 film out of China. The film stars Xu Zheng and a host of women. Among these women include Fan Bing-bing, Eva Huang, Annie Yi, Ning Jing, Qin Hailu, and Bai Bing.

The movie starts with Xu Zheng as Xu Long getting a divorce from his long time wife due to boredom. As the divorce goes through, an Angel gives him a cell phone that will allow him to meet 12 women. Among these 12, he will find his next mate.

You guessed it, Xu dates twelve women that are all crazy in the head and hilarious situations ensues. Queue laugher and lol!

Xu didn't really fit the part, but very few men that originate from the China market have been able to do modern films well. Ancient films, no problem. Modern films in China, fail.

But all those women in the film. Most if not all are very easy on the eyes. I stayed around mainly to see who the next one was. And so should you. That can be your only reason.

Unfinished Girl - 第三個人



Unfinished Girl (第三個人) is a 2007 film out of China. The movie stars Gao Yuan-Yuan and Xu Zheng. The movie also features Tao Hong and Yan Po in supporting roles.

Gao Yuan-Yuan is Xu Zheng's sister-in-law. Xu is married to Gao older sister, played by Tao Hong. Towards the beginning of the film, you find out a little bit about Gao and Xu's life. Gao is a clerk and Xu is an insurance specialist. Gao however believes that Xu is behind the death of her parents. Gao eventually traps Xu at her residence and forces him to talk or to spill the beans.

The movie was really strange and slow. Xu isn't convincing as a lead, but Gao really lights up the screen. The movie is again quite slow and lots of time is spent on things that didn't flow well. The ending was a little bit of a surprise.

Unfortunately, I was not able to find a YouTube trailer for this movie.

One Night in Supermarket - 夜店



One Night in Supermarket (夜店) is a 2009 film out of China. Made on a budget, it was highly successful due to its modest box office take. Starring Jacqueline Li, Xu Zheng, and Kimi Qiao Renliang.

The movie takes place in the confines of a convenience store. All the action takes place seemingly after midnight. The first is Xu Zheng, claiming the store owner owes him 9K or so for falsely telling him that he had won a lottery ticket prize. The second is a jewelry thief looking for the diamond he stashed in the ice cream freezer.

Lot of hilarious situations arise because no one seems very bright. No one! I think I am dumber for watching this film.
