Quotes
Mrs. Tsui: You're a strong girl, Cathy. I didn't expect you to hold up.
May Ho: Grandma, my real name is May.
Susan: Daniel said your name was Cathy.
May Ho: Who knew if he was for real? I made it up.
Mrs. Tsui: Why isn't your father here? Busy in meetings?
May Ho: He could've come, but his sentence just got extended.
Mrs. Tsui: Sentence? Your father's in jail?
May Ho: Yes. For smuggling pigs.
Susan: Isn't he a diamond tycoon?
May Ho: I lied to Daniel.
Mrs. Tsui: Why?
May Ho: Because he made up stories.
Mrs. Tsui: What did he say?
May Ho: He bragged about himself. Said he represented top fashion labels, went to Stanford, came from a good family, started his own business, and won many honors.
Mrs. Tsui: That's all true.
May Ho: I didn't know, so I made up stories.
Mrs. Tsui: Did Daniel know the truth before he died?
May Ho: Yes and no. I didn't tell him everything.

Sappy Hong Kong ghost comedy.

Hong Kong pop singer Sammi Cheng plays May Ho, a woman who after getting into a car wreck received a six sense in her left eye.

It is indeed a ghost movie, but like much Hong Kong movies with the supernatural theme, comedy is mixed in. In this case, it works a little in the movie as the plot was well-paced and acting was decent. There are also some sappy romantic scenes, which makes you sometimes think you're not watching a ghost movie. There's also quite a bit of gore in the film, which seemed out of place for such a sappy film.

Overall, it's not too bad of a film. It's watchable, has some unpredictable moments, but it doesn't surpass some of the more conventional and intriguing ghost comedies of the 80s and 90s.
