Unfortunately for Jack, however, his girlfriend, Chu-Chu, soon discovers his romantic infidelities and promptly dumps him. Left single and miserable, Jack runs into a mysterious woman known as Angel, who encourages him to think of others in lieu of merely thinking of himself; she reassures him that this magnanimity will lead to consistent romantic success. Thus begins Jack's new search for romantic bliss; scriptwriters James Yuen and Dennis Law divide the remainder of the film into three vignettes, with Jack slyly attempting to coax his way into the heart of a different woman in each segment. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
