Plot: Fen has just started working as a hairdresser when a gangster enters her saloon and asks her to cover for him. She manages to keep him out of trouble, as a favor she is asked to cut his hair. It's the start of a blossoming relationship between two people from very different social circles.

The latest Giddens Ko is another wacky genre mix. This time, he blends comedy, crime, romance, and action into an entertaining romp that kept me entertained despite the longer runtime. The mix of genres might be a bit of a hurdle for some who prefer a purer experience, as Ko commits to all of them.
That results in a darker and bloodier finale, which stands in contrast with the lighter start. Vivian Sung is the star of the film and charms from start to finish. Yu-hong Hong has a few more struggles but does a commendable job. The styling is lovely, the pacing perfect and Ko is a master of switching between different moods without hurting the overall vibe. Not quite as good as his previous film, but fans won't be disappointed.
